For context - it wasn't a good thing, because I started crying not laughing, just normal crying. Coworkers couldn't calm me down for 15 minutes
There was a stupid situation at work with fallen pizza on the floor and I just... Started to laugh so hard I started crying hysterically. Let's say my coworkers were terrified

IF YOU READ THIS, MY COMMISSIONS ARE OPEN!

Woohoo, new brand commission post! Since my art style has evolved into something very sketch and messy (but I still love it) I decided to change my price list and all offered content.
I also wanted to keep it clean, so all info now will be in my ToS and not in post. I tried to simplify it as much as possible.
Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1
The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.
So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.
So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.
Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.
And the probe is working again.
From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.
I will never get over how weird it feels to have tragic and emotional chapters of your life where you just also still go to work, and the grocery store, and see funny videos online all while feeling such paralyzing fear and heartache
