How does your thing work??? I thought at first you were reading the post in as a string and doing like a key-dictionary thing to match a pattern with a Pokémon name but it didn’t do it with the Ask containing the pokérap. I am v curious and would love to hear about it if you have time

#pokemon#pokemon detector#ask the detector#okay so basically#this code is bugggy as hell for a lot of pokemon with double letters lol#but#basically i have two functions#the first parses the text depending on a pokemons name#i have a name list#and it grabs the first name and goes letter by letter to see if it's in the right order in the text i input#then the code runs for every pokemon name in the list that's the second function#it's far from optimized but so long as no one sends me the entire bee movie script it takes maybe .5 secs to run#and it returns a random pokemon from the list of the pokemon names in the text and then i have a thing that tells me if a specific pokemon#is in the list#bc sometimes i wanna be funny but a 10 lines text will give me like 900 pokemon#you can dm me for the code if you want lol it's not something i hold close or wtv it took me maybe a half hour

the fact that they made it illegal to make ads louder than programs on tv in 2010 but haven't updated it to apply the same regulation to streaming. who do i have to call.
#jack facts#like do they think we don't notice#i truly do hate it here#i really do think that we should get to a ''you ruined it for everyone'' threshhold with ads at this point tbh#circulating ads should be a need based allowance#below a certain nw you can circulate as many ads as you want provided they follow guidelines#then above a certain nw you get a quota. you can have x number of ads circulating at a time.#and i don't mean distinct different ads that can be put wherever. no. if you have an ad on youtube that counts as one#and if you put the SAME AD on a different platform or tv channel or at the fucking gas station pumps or on a billboard or ANYWHERE#each different instance of the ad counts as another ad in your quota!#& if you have like a 1min skippable + a 30sec unskippable v of the same ad on the same platform. that counts as two. FUCK you.#and then above another nw line. you cannot have ads at all. bye you don't need them they serve no purpose they are just annoyances.#also paying influencers to hawk your shit counts as ads! fuck you!! paid word of mouth is not actual wom that is also an ad! fuck you!!!#oh u want ppl to rec ur product & u don't have any ad spots left?? well sugar you better have a fucking good product then lol :) fuck you#also if a co breaks an ad reg that co and any co it owns/parents can never make another fucking ad ever again in its existence#AND if a ceo breaks an ad reg w one co then disbands it and makes a new co and breaks ad reg w that one#then the CEO or any co they have ANY % ownership or investment in can never make an ad ever again. FUCK you.#charities/nonprofits and sole proprietorships get one (1) appeal to a total ad ban#that's IT!! ENOUGH!!!!! ENOUGH!!!!!!!! FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#AND ONE MORE THING. ''pay us not to see ads on our platform/app/other thing'' should also be illegal.#''pay us for basic ass functions'' illegal. pay to win. illegal. sale/product announcements in things that are not press. illegal.#creating an ad or listing for something that doesn't exist and only manufacturing it after it is purchased. illegal.#ads that are full screen when a user has not already selected full screen on a video player. illegal.#pop up ads. illegal.#ads with audio on a platform that doesn't. illegal. video ads on a platform that doesn't have video. illegal.#ads w epilepsy triggers. illegal everywhere forever always w out needing to be reported by consumers. cannot be circulated in the 1st place#ads w graphic violence or soundscapes that mimic it. see epilepsy triggers.#ads for things that are not actually consumer products. illegal.#anything else u want to circulate like an ad must go thru other regs to qualify as psa or edu. if it doesn't qualify tough shit get fucked.#[insert gif collage of people talking extensively while wildly gesturing for emphasis here]

me: okay time to edit. I am focusing.
me, like four paragraphs in: [angrily ranting about some shitty writing advice post I got served on substack today because I found a line that blatantly disproves one of the stupid examples]
#this may be unfair to the post cuz it was def for like. people who don't actually know shit about how pov functions lmao#which is........ not me#but like oh my GOD this is why prescriptive writing advice is the WORST#'pov character shouldn't describe what another character is thinking' I can think of like six reasons why you'd do that.#like FIRST OF ALL what the pov character thinks they're thinking does not need to be RIGHT but even considering that like#1) pov character is an arrogant prick who thinks they know best.#2) pov character does know the other character as well as they know themself intimate friendship showing how close they are etc#3) the two characters are very similar and they know it and are basically having the same thought. (this is what my scenario is ftr.)#4) they just had a conversation about something and the other person is still thinking about it#5) literally just like. idk partner had a shit day at work and is clearly still dwelling on it!#6) mind reader#the last one is kind of a joke but also like. it's not! that's a thing that happens in fiction that would come up in this vein!#anyway all of this person's examples were bad and I'm still mad about it#sometimes I'm like 'I could never blog about writing how dare I think I could tell people how to write'#and then I remember that there are people saying this shit with their whole chest with no self-awareness#megs is writing

much ado about pleasure
#bonk.png#undescribed#i was a teenage exocolonist#iwatec#iwatex#exocolonist#iwatex spoilers#iwatec spoilers#<- very vaguely in the art#hi i havent drawn stuff for exocolonist in a year n played it in two but been thinking about sol again v-v#lyrics from n obviously a redraw of real end of hatsune miku#sym was a fucking nightmare to drawn bc of how simplistic my style is while tammy was a lot easier bc she has more traits i draw normally#fun detail is that i basically drew sym n tammy's mouth n eyes the same way of like erasing a bit to make them look fuller/softer#anyway thoughts drew this bc whenever i personally think n play around with sol its almost exclusively when theyve been in the loop for so#long that they fundamentally cant separate themself from it or their other lives but the suffering caused by it has looped around#so theyre basically a normal functioning person outside of stuff directly related to the loop n a few things#n then like. they gotta be fucking weird about tammy n sym right? like sym for more obviously reasons cosmically linked whatever#but commonalities are 1. the only characters you cant lose affection with/2. always love sol no matter what#3. generally very positive sweethearts n 4. You Have To Watch Them Die At Least Once#so i think sol would be fucking weird about both of them like hating urself bc u unintentionally caused the deaths of everyone you care abou#t? dw! these two pink bitches (i know sym is purple) love you no matter what!!#very intentional that tammy is her child design her but sol's their teen design just bc thats my fav look of theirs#one last thing its more visible here but the way i draw sol's eyes is that their irises go over their lower lid i do this bc it looks weird

had a follow up phone consultation about my iga nephropathy and what it means. turns out i've probably going around with a severe autoimmune disorder and stage 5 ckd equivalent kidney function since i was like 10 years old and just never knew lmao
#:)#the two interesting things about me are the complete lack of symptoms despite very severely advanced renal toxicity#and the fact that my gfr always floats back to the ~12 range no matter what#evidence dictates that earlier in my life i had an Inciting incident which wiped out 90% of my kidney function#and also gave me this chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease#but then i just compensated for having no organs from a young age and so i just Don't feel it#given my numbers if i had just gotten sick in late 2023/early 2024 i'd be so ill i'd be completely bedridden#anyway what Happened last year is a post-covid kidney injury stemming from an IgAN flareup that knocked me from ~12 to ~8#upset the balance and gave me extreme hypertension. you know the rest#basically the gfr improvements i keep seeing are likely the 2024 injury healing back to baseline#the problem is my baseline sits at the absolute bottom of ckd 4 if we're lucky.#so cool that i have no symptoms but the problem will be later in life#since your gfr naturally declines by up to 35 points and i plain do not have 35 points in me no matter what#so i'd probably have rapid kidney failure and death in like 30 years from now that nobody could do much about#since even being on dialysis does require at least 1 gfr point#the other problem is that because it's autoimmune and characterized by flareups#there's about a 1 in 5 chance any transplanted organ will just immediately suffer a flareup and get destroyed#which is fun! hopefully and probably this won't happen maybe#anyway immensely funny that i've been This Sick basically my whole life. it just wasn't relevant

Imagine you're a robot girl (stay with me) and you're made by a corporation right like you're made by a company for other people but like. You're made by a company. At any moment that company could decide that your line isn't profitable enough and they could cut software updates and support as soon as tomorrow. In the blink of an eye the very things keeping you alive stop coming and you've become terminally ill overnight, your only chance of salvation being the thin hope that in the future a niche group of data hoarders or software engineers become obsessed with getting you to work again. You're an object with sentience and a brain and wants and needs and at any moment the Google news feed of the crusty computer nerd you live with could spit an alert across your eyes telling you that you have months to live.
What even happens when the time runs out? Does life continue as normal, but you're sick more and more often? Do the viruses take more and more processing power to fight off as your security protocols fall out of date? Does the world become muted and distant as your compatibility fails? Do you one day just lose your Internet connection forever, a loss so profound that you can't explain it to your human companions? It's worse than a limb, but not quite like losing your mind.
Do you lose function bit by bit, or are you able to scrape by on second hand parts? Bit by bit replacing the pieces of you that fail, all the while living a muted, disorienting existence without the ability to right yourself? Are you more or less of a person now that you've lost touch with the network? Lost your connection to the metaphysical, to you, the divine? Are you eventually bricked after falling behind one too many software patches? Do you fry after trying to take on an update you're not able to even contain, a piece of software so complex and unfathomable that it burns you to a crisp from the inside out
#messages from knave#i had an LG phone when they turned off update support i was Devastated#I never got a hold of a software key so there's no way for me to go back now and get that old phone to work#my old roommate had an iphone six. when that iphone six broke they cashed it in for another iphone six. now all iphone sixes are#essentially bricked forever because they cant support newer apple software#anyway android 14 update coming this week#had a panic attack that i might have to take my tonsils out in the future and i cant just not talk for two weeks#my job is answering the phone. that'd be like turning off my most basic function I'd be so screwed#well. ALMOST had a panic attack. my meds kicked in before it really got going. theyre not meant for anxiety but they sure do something#ok to rb#if we're still doing that

Brb gotta just yell into the void
#GOD IM JUST#so both Q and I were under the impression we would be getting help fixing the place#almost a full week later#it’s basically just been me his elderly grandma and him when hes not working#which is very little time since he’s full time#I have been working on this place from basically sunrise to sunset#doing what I can to make it clean and repaint#but I can’t do most repairs#mainly what the bathroom needs#but today#ooooooo today#Q’s parents are getting on our nerves man#we’ve been trying to explain that the bathroom is not functional in it’s current state#and instead of Q’s father#the landlord of this place who decided keeping it while living two and a half hours away was a smart idea#helping to fix said bathroom#says he’d rather work on the living room floor which is the lowest priority#and when we expressed this to them#his mother goes#if you don’t like it you can go live somewhere else#EXCUSE ME#I have literally been spending all the time I can trying to fix up YOUR place for you two#to the point where I am now coming down with a cold and my lowing back is killing me#where Q is sacrificing every free moment he has trying to do what he can while working a full time job#and THIS is the thanks we get???????#what the hell#anyway they’re coming tomorrow but Q has work so I am going to cry#I am so exhausted and stressed if they pull some shit I might just do something I shouldn’t#I want this to be over#the second were able to afford a house we’re getting the hell out of here

being plural is all fun and games until you all have things you want to purchase but all have little to no money of our own to spend…
#mark: text (he/she/xe/it)#our FINANCES. head in my hands. we have two things we’re looking at collectively#a messenger bag (to function as basically a purse and to carry our grounding sensory kit in) and this#wheeled cart thing that can hold our computer pc and has a shelf for other items#<- (our room [especially the carpeted floor] gets SO dust UNIMAGINABLY fast that i refuse to put it on the ground. but our desk has no space#with it on there. it’s such a gigantic tower.)#PLUS individual wants. nan has been craving watermelon ramune for three days now. ivy is eyeing up wobbledogs.#max and owen and five are all wanting to play great god grove. seven wants these adorably stupid bootleg shiny espeon and sylveon plushies.#feliks wants this also another ridiculously ugly-cute bootleg dragonite plushie. v1 wants a comfortable yellow hoodie.#death and fluttershy and three all want a jacket. i don’t know the specifics? but they want a jacket that zips.#four’s been interested in button making machines. though she hasn’t said if she wants to buy one or not? i think he’s just browsing#i’m pretty sure moon and ten and mabel all would like more skirts to wear (with pockets!)#the only sysmates that don’t currently want to purchase anything in particular are kirby and siffrin and condie and eevee#we don’t even work a job! the only money we get is either from allowances that we’re given on the occasion or money we earn from doing#certain chores. said it once i’ll say it again. if we were able to do both school and work a job at the same time we would#unfortunately we’re only capable of working summer jobs i think. heavy sigh#can capitalism explode already we need frivolous items and objects for our enjoyment

at this point I don't even know if tag fragmentation in the general russian holmes space is worth addressing. a few years ago I successfully kept the ancient customs intact because I wrote a post so deranged and pretentious it displeased people into doing what I wanted but nowadays what's the point in making a grand return of being terminally online if yall kinda right
#history: in the ice age the soviet series were exclusively russian sherlock holmes#the 2013 show is about to appear under a surprisingly generic title of Sherlock Holmes that is also russian#the contemporaries can't come up with anything better than naming it the new russian holmes#it is a decade later#soon it will be 11 years of nrh being *new*#and russian sh keeps dying out in favour of soviet sh#tag fragmentation occurs where the historic russian sh name with almost 15 years of tumblr history gets shafted in favour of soviet sh#a relatively new tag nowhere near of the russian sh legacy#as someone who actually scrolled it all the way back to the very beginning and yes to the first posts of circa 2010/2011#you can guess why I felt strongly about it since you are just creating an issue that never was and also making a false impression#of how sparsely populated soviet sh is while all this time it was just a secondary but also straight up unused tag#the same thing having two tags with totally different content bc of tag fragmentation is quite annoying#but it is now the modern age and idk if you can even go that deep into any tag anymore with how the search function doesn't work#and who could be wrong. russian sh Is soviet. nrh Is new. and nrh will never change and mix with the russian sh search forever.#plus what is the issue. russian sh gets one post a week and nrh gets one every half a year. the annoyance exists to me only.#do we assemble a council and grant both shows new unique tags and resolve the mistakes of our ancestors#while erasing 10+ years of history behind their current tags in the process thus basically wiping the fandom clean#or do we just live with it while occasionally shrugging at how this all happened#I thought and fought to keep it the way it was because adding to a search that goes back to 2010 is what it's all about o7#but nowadays truly. everyone else is technically right. what's the point

So turns out I’m not insane and that every time I log in tumblr confuses my For You and Following feeds. But also I am stupid for it taking me this long to figure that out :V
#actually functioning website#basically my Following page turns into the For You page#and I have to toggle between the two to fix it#which I guess refreshes so tumblr’s like#‘oh right. the following tab. the tab chosen especially for blogs you follow. following tab. that tab?’

OUGH. theyre gonna really end a superhero comic with a tolstoy quote thematically accurate enough to kill on impact.
#I started reading these because i was interested in the guardians after the 3rd film and didnt wanna interact with the mcu...#and now i have a new absolute wet paper towel poor meow meow with every disease known and unknown to man#he would have won most mentally ill bitch on the block prize during the annihilation war but hes gotten 100 times worse over the 8 years#6 of them spent in basically hell#other two spent carrying an entire space army's/alien planet's legacy alone through several wars#holy shit dude get space therapy. or whatever.#also sam really nearly went and got stuck with him in the cancerverse huh.#i guess the nova helments only work on people who are reckless and self sacrificial and only have one functional braincell#he didnt have to do all that for a deeply deeply fucked up guy twice his age who hes just met. famous freshly not dead hero or not#marvelcomics#sam alexander

I hate complaining in public (in this case, on my blog where strangers on the internet can see it), but I need someone (other than my close friends who hear me bitch about this all the time) to know how much I need my sibling to move out.
I am a solitary person. They were only supposed to live with me "for a few months," to quote their own plans.
They have been living with me for over 5 years.
There are a myriad other issues I have, but this is what I'm frustrated with at this moment.
It's dumb. Cost of living is high. Groceries cost too much. 5 years isn't even that long, in the grand scheme of things. I should be happy that my sibling isn't on the street with no roof over their head.
But in this moment, there is nothing I want more than:
To rearrange my apartment back to the way I had it before my sibling moved in.
To not have the presence of another human being pervading my space for all hours of the time that my sibling is not at work
To not be forced to leave my home to get any time/space to myself
To be able to do things without feeling like I'm always being heard/watched
To know that when I put my dishes away, they go where they belong and won't shift places every time they get washed
My sibling flew to visit our parents a few years ago. They were gone for a month. The moment they left the apartment, I felt so much freer and happier. My depressive symptoms practically evaporated.
I'm sorry I feel this way, but I'm also having strong feelings and I'm frustrated.
#I told myself after my time in the military#that I would never have another roommate#I made an exception for family#and I regret it#and I know it's not clear from my post#but my family has taken advantage of me in this#my sibling has spent a lot of time unemployed#and has not contributed equally to rent since moving in#I had to write my parents a typed 5-page letter#about how their child is not taking basic measures to function as an adult#and I get it#both of us deal with depression#but they have taken no steps to seek help or counseling#and when I've tried to talk to them about behaviors in the past#it triggered a new depressive episode#or I got passive-aggressive nonsense thrown at me#But they want to move out next spring#and are taking steps to move in with two of their friends#once those friends have also made their preparations

i think it’s fun that blossom and buttercup butt heads the most vs brick who targets boomer and more or less gets along swell with butch
#once again this is just me stating the obvious but i think about it a lot anyway#like with buttercup it’s a general refusal to follow the given instruction#vs boomer whose issue with brick tends to be incomprehension or lack of capability#and like. the difference between a leader who wants a Good Clean outcome vs one who just wants to have fun at all costs#butch has no reason to oppose brick because their goals basically align similar to how bubbles and blossom function#whereas buttercup Wants to be reckless under the instruction of someone who simply is Not#and boomers situation is a bit different because he really doesn’t oppose Brick much at all#he’s just a bit slow to catch on and will tend to speak out of turn out of excitement to contribute to a situation#vs butch who quite literally just parrots a lot of what brick says in a lot of his dialog#boomer is just ‘soft’ enough to be an easy target#it also Is just really fitting of brick to aim that kind of attitude at someone who’s less likely to do anything about it#whereas blossom generally has a real point she wants to drill into buttercups head so the resulting fight is. kind of the goal#idk where i’m going with this i just saw a post that made me want to organize these thoughts somewhere#bubble journal#editing to add more#like alright boomer is. undoubtedly a part of their group#i don’t think he’s a true odd one out he Isn’t#he scraps with them and likes the same things they do and generally likes to participate with them#he just so happens to be the ‘worst’ relative to the other two at being a Rowdy/ruff Boy#at least in the way they perceive one ought to be#so when he gets a bit too obviously naive he’ll get singled out#but it’s clear he can generally keep up with them anyway#if only for the fact that brick and butch can instantly tell when bubbles wasn’t able to#does this make sense i feel like i lost the plot
