Niiiiice!

In short:

There. I just finished my first independently-generated spectrum and sent it to my collaborator for review.

I did it. I'm a computational chemist and an astrochemist.

This astrochemistry work is firing long-dormant neurons in my brain, neurons that last had to work about 25 years ago.

Oh yeah, I forgot prior art exists on this. Thanks!

I know it's a pipe dream because you cannot organize a large group of people to do one simple task (and inertia exists), but what percentage of Netflix subscribers would it take to cancel all at once to put an end to this price hike waltz?

Nothing quite so disastrous: simulating spectra of molecules in the interstellar medium!

I am working through how to perform astrochemistry computations on my own, because I know I won’t learn it unless I struggle with it. Based on the current amount of struggle, I’m learning a lot.

If y’all need anything, let us know.

Why do I picture myself becoming the X-Man Marrow?

All right, Zel has a foxfire projectile that works as a stand-alone attack or a combo ender.

Well, that's a mixed bag. May everything be okay in the end.

For Beatdown in the Holler, just an upgrade.

For Just Beneath the Holler, you're not that far off!

So, it fires glowing projectiles which (depending on the upgrade tree) will either cause an enemy to explode for AoE damage or infect them and slowly kill them BUT make them a bit tougher.

The Internet indicates it may be a Pokemon drop, which means scalpers.

God, grown adults will ruin everything.

Does anyone know of any big tech releases today? Angie's out and about and said there's a line of "nerds, just all nerds" camped out along the length of Best Buy and the next two stores.

Oooh, been there. I'm cross-legged in a chair right now, this is going to be a terrible idea when the groceries arrive.

I'll take it, although the hit to dex-based saving throws is going to suck later.

This weekend's coding task: give Zel a gun.

Okay, not a gun, but a projectile weapon based on foxfire.

Yes. Zel's getting a magical fairy-fire mushroom cannon.

Sweet. Can't wait until my back sounds like a xylophone at a kid's recital.

Oh no, I hope everything turns out okay!

I know just the barest about Invincible, but GOODNESS.

I've unlocked "waking up with multiple body parts aching at the same time". Wow, what a completely useful feature.

I love this poster but it begs the question:

How big did Godzilla get in two years and why was it because of American nukes?

“Jolie, this is our first Dog Day at school. I’m going to need you to be on your best behavior.”

“Pete, buddy, I plan to both raise Hell AND praise Dale in the first five minutes.”
