If You’re Having A Bad Day, Here’s A Cute Little Marching Band

i’m literally making that exact game in college right now

all factory-building games are worthless if they don’t let you mass-produce food. what’s the point of anything if little food items aren’t involved

unsure if this is about Minecraft or executive dysfunction

It sucks that there's only 20 minutes in each day. If there was more than that I would get more stuff done I'm sure

one propaganda, because there isn’t enough of that yet

-1, 0, 1, and 2 are the most important numbers. they are the basis of the integers, each of them providing something unique that every other integer builds off of.

all the other types of numbers, from rationals to reals to complex to transcendental, build off of the integers.

NaN, on the other hand, is the basis of nothing, and isn’t even that interesting on it’s own. I’ve been programming and dealing with floating-point numbers for years, and do you know how many times NaN has come in useful? precisely zero. even calculations that ‘should’ result in NaN, like dividing by zero, usually don’t even use it, instead just throwing an error. why? because an error is more useful than a NaN the vast majority of the time.

you know what NaN is? floating point filler. there were a bunch of bit representations left over (16,777,214 for the standard, 32-bit float) and the designers of the IEEE 754 float decided to make them all NaN because they didn’t know what else to use them for.

People don't like to admit it bcs cringe or w/e but Homestuck really did revolutionize the webcomic as a storytelling medium and I am endlessly frustrated that before webcomic artists could really stretch our legs fucking webtoonz swooped in, set a new, more restrictive standard, and then monetized and monopolized the ever living fuck out of the concept of The Webcomic until it drove away anyone who couldn't be a professional quality manga artist for free, and now the only webcomics that actually feel like spiritual successors to Homestuck are so obscure they're basically cult classics that you have to beg people to read.

Like it's just so wild to be in high school and see Homestuck be like "we're using like fifteen different artistic mediums to tell this story bcs we can" and be really fucking inspired by that, only to grow up and see basically every webcomic ever have to conform to One Single Standard or fucking perish.

wait what is the green bar even supposed to mean?

it’s clearly not the proportion all votes, because if it was, then Waluigi’s bar would be about 2/3rds full and Isabelle’s bar would be about 1/3rd full. if it’s the number of votes relative to the character with the most votes, then Waluigi’s bar would be 100% full. my best guess is that it’s the second option, except there’s some forced white space at the end of each bar for some reason?

Nintendo’s official website has a poll of who you would like to give a valentine to and Waluigi is winning by a huge margin

Edit: the title for this comic is “Puzzle Rat” this one’s a few days late due to having a lot of doctors appointments sorry it’s  just 9 pages, and about some rats… it’s more symbolic than anything really
