Tent stitch of Jupiter's atmosphere and the Galilean satellites' surfaces. The spaces between the blocks are proportional to the difference in semi-major axis of adjacent moons and the width of all except Jupiter is proportional to their radius (width and spacing not to scale with each other, of course). It was a nightmare trying to find a suitable non-AI image of Jupiter's clouds.
Very cool!!!
JRPG where the teenage firebrand protagonist is taken under wing by a wise older mentor figure in their twenties, as one does, except the third party member to join is in their thirties and regards both the protagonist and the initial mentor as dumb kids; the fourth is in their forties and thinks the same of the first three; and so forth.
So my beta reader for the Big Fics is an astrophysicist, right. Who is currently also writing a hard sci-fi novel about the exploration of Phobos (more power to them, I cannot with the physics required for that, best I can do is soft sci-fi/fantasy and that reminds me I should finish that story).
Anyway I was bitching about how hard it is to come up with feasible planets in Star Wars because sometimes you need a new planet from scratch and sometimes you need to know more about a planet than the 'has jungles, is probably a moon technically' than Wookieepedia will give you, and they're like 'oh yeah I can do something about that'.
So they've written (in Matlab but they swear it will run as a .exe as well and I may be conscripted to embed it as a web tool at some point) a star system generator.
You input what you know about the planet (ecosystem, population, sun colour, does it have liquid water, does it have a moon or moons, is it a moon or moons, temperature averages, atmosphere, you get me) and it will give you the... everything else about the star system, in obedience to real-universe physics. And if you input nothing you get a randomly generated star system.
And I’m like oh I know people who will be into this with a vengeance, and they're not on Tumblr, so this is me seeing who exactly would be keen on, and I cannot stress this enough, a real-physics comprehensive star system generator.
It's still in the debugging phase (last error fixed: every planet wants to have a population of exactly 5000 regardless of other factors, turned out to be a missing equals sign somewhere), but I'm psyched for this and trying to gauge interest for how high a priority 'make this an accessible web tool' needs to be.
Reblogging to drag this project over here, this is killing my notes on main so I'm giving it its own URL. Follow over here for updates on the star system generator and only the star system generator, and not on my Star Wars bullshit.
Will go through and tag interested parties when things calm down below 100 notes an hour.

I remember how rare it used to be for a kid to die. I remember how we had one kid die in a car accident in my high school class: one in a decade. The school literally shut down for three days for a long weekend. It wasn't normal. It wasn't average. It was a big deal. Now in an average school system there are two or three dying of illness every year, and our government wants you to believe we're all "#BacktoNormal." I'm so tired of reading news reports about 11-year-olds dying of cardiac failure. I'm so tired of reading news reports about 15-year-olds dying of illness. I'm so tired of reading news reports about 21-year-olds having strokes. I'm so tired of people pretending like this is normal and there is no reason to avoid covid infections. Now it's business as usual when kids die. It's normal. It's average. It's no big deal.
Please mask up. Keep kids safe.
People keep vaguing that I'm some super-rich person because of this experience but, y'all, my hometown is populated by majority new immigrants. when I was in high school, 51% of the town spoke a language besides English as their primary language. We're an agricultural processing town in a rural state. Idk what else to say besides not everyone is from California or NYC and not having those specific experiences doesn't mean I went to expensive catholic boarding school or whatever.
Maybe I'm just a little bit too spicy about this right now, but we shouldn't be playing "I had a worse childhood than you, stranger-I-don't-know-and-will-likely-never-meet" on a post about the rising rates of deaths from strokes and heart attacks in 4th graders, should we?
Colbert said goodbye to CBS viewers for the final time last month
CBS's axing of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert has provided a ratings boon to its rival networks, new data suggests.
On Monday, the first night that ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live! and NBC's The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon returned with new episodes since Colbert signed off, Kimmel's show dominated the competitive 11:35 p.m. time slot, according to numbers from Nielsen.
Kimmel was watched by 2.185 million total viewers on June 1, a 53 percent year-on-year increase. Data also reveals that the program attracted 295,000 viewers in the 18 to 49 demographic, which marks a significant 178 percent increase from the same night last year.
Fallon came in second with 1.301 million viewers on Monday — a 10 percent increase year-over-year. The 18 to 24 demographic viewership increased by 14 percent from last year, with 194,000 viewers.
CBS's replacement show for Colbert, Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen, struggled to keep up with the competition, receiving only 628,000 total viewers, representing a 65 percent drop from the same slot compared to last year, when Colbert occupied it.

I watched the rottmnt movie
I know why you drew him. Because he is beautiful.
i am of the sincere belief that if ur on ur computer a lot you should visually customize it to high hell and back not just for funsies but also because it has literally made me less depressed before. its kind of like how rearranging your bedroom is good for your brain, yknow. i do stuff like this every few months
and if anyone wants to follow suit
LIVE WALLPAPER: wallpaper engine. only thing on here that costs any money (its like 5 bucks on steam). im sure theres free alternatives but this one has a lot of presets and stuff so its less hassle and its what i use. might be a bad idea for lower end pcs tho
CUSTOM TASKBAR: retrobar on github (lots of different options)
CUSTOM CURSOR: theres a lot of places to find these, but rw-designer open cursor library is a good place to start
DISCORD: betterdiscord, im using the clearvision v7 theme with a custom background
EXTENSIONS (these are for firefox, might or might not exist on other browsers):
tabliss for the new tab theme
stylus for tumblr -> specifically the 'tumblr - custom dashboard pallette' theme for colors + bg, and this for the pre-twitterifcation layout
enhancer for youtube for custom youtube colors
the browser theme is just one i found on the firefox theme 'store'
My desktop background is still a picture of the front of the local shop I got it from, with tweaks to make the neon signs pop and to make sure there's absolutely no dark shadows. It's a very vibrant image, a local store, and kiddos tech savvy friend works there.
But I'm absolutely doing this when it's time to change.
This duo is lowkey so underrated, we don't talk about how in the absence of Valka and sometimes even stoick when he's too busy being the chief, it was Gobber who looked after Hiccup. And now Gobber's best friend is gone and he's watching his best friend's son who he's seen grow up, become chief. It must've been so bittersweet for him because on one hand he just lost his life long buddy but on the other hand he gets to see his apprentice go from being under confident and underestimated to becoming their leader. So yea i love the fics in which gobber and hiccup's relationship are emphasized
Donnie based his bad boy persona off Leo agenda is doing well I see
To both the person pointing this out in the tags and you coming with the evidence thank you for your ur service this is important to me 🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️
While I understand the desire to make Big Art entirely and viscerally I think it's worth considering that small art often leaves an outsized impact on its audience. Short stories, teensy indie games, short films, sketches on scrap paper, carved or sculpted figures that would fit in the palm of your hand, etc. etc. are all things that, when they hit your psyche at just the right angle, can stay lodged in there forever specifically because they are small. It is not necessary for a thing to be sprawling for it to have impact.
