i need to quit my job as soon as possible

the deluge of papers trying to explain this election is going to be mind-boggling, because holy shit, and i do not want to deal with it

wait, how in god's name could anybody take mainiac's claims about infant sacrifice seriously? at worst they're a satirical parody of arguments that nobody's making, which is a far cry from the irony defense

Blah, I can't into the geometry required for this art idea. Who among us could have guessed that mapping points from one edge of a crescent to the other so that a seamless pattern can be created with another, smaller crescent located within whatever-you-call-the-space-between-horns that has been rotated with respect to the first, would turn out to be a challenge I can't intuitively solve with the GIMP equivalent of a ruler and compass?

EDIT: I do have a workaround in mind but it'll require me to start over so that differing rounding errors don't prevent the pattern from matching up with the crescents. Also I explained this really badly.

No particular reason to assume the Dark One is part of the Northern Pantheon and therefore entitled to a vote there.

After an email I really needed from a friend helped point me in the right direction, I am feeling a lot better about the current and future state of Muh Feels. Think I kinda forgot who I was for a while there. Not in the amnesia sense, more in the sense of lost my way[/kill la kill soundtrack].

Also, I've caught up on a shitload of work this weekend. Little of it Behemoth-related, but still! It's nice. I'm still stressed, but I'm channeling that into useful things now instead of video games and moping. I mean, there's still a bit of both, but in much more reasonable amounts. It's nice having a clean room, and more importantly a clean desk, for once.

I'm going to art now (read: after catching up on forum business).

The best burrito is the one you buy, slightly drunk and too late at night, because you not only have eaten so little this day that giving into the temptation merely puts you at ordinary caloric intake for the day, but also the only person you feel compelled against all sense, decency, and logic to impress is out of town. This latter part is incredibly silly, but you'd be amazed at how much stress is caused by the juxtaposition of aspiring to be healthy and the knowledge that you're really only doing this to please somebody who probably doesn't care - and that such an attitude is inherently unhealthy on several levels. Lots of cognitive dissonance lately, and to be able to bypass this with a simple "Fuck yes, burrito" is a wonderful change of pace. I have had other problems with my mindset, but this was a good one to be spared for a night.

In a world where you have to pay so much for legal representation*, equality before the law is kind of a fucking joke, yeah.

*And I don't just mean the lawyer's fees - court costs, time, and so on are all part of it.

Sounds like an XOR. x^y^z

This will run any time an odd number of conditions are true, so it doesn't quite work.
