I've decided to min-max halloween this year.

Snark, code, and politics in some order. He/him.
And it works!
`%x{a, b: 1, c, d: foo}` can be made to return `{:a=>1, :b=>3, :c=>4, :d=>27}`.
It's super hacky, but it works. :)
So- I was listening to a random black metal band I grabbed off a metal blog I follow. I was actually getting really into them, so I looked them up. There was a series of cute, black-metal themed webcomics a few years back called Belzebubs by a Finnish artist; it turns out, this band I've been digging is the real life music of the fictional band in his comic.
I definitely wouldn't have expected a webcomic's band to be good, but it really is! :). https://belzebubs.com/
So I wrote a reddit bot that turns comments into shirts. People seem to love turning the bot's own comments into shirts. The results aren't that interesting, though. I'm thinking I should have a special case for that situation where it creates a shirt with special, semi-random text. Maybe lorem ipsum, maybe random samples of Isaac Asimov novels, maybe a bit of the bot's own code?
Anyone got any fun suggestions?
Oh hey, I should post this here too! I made a CSS-only async chat by using background-image requests to send data and long-running http requests to return it.
I wrapped up my "comic a day" thing I was doing this year. I made it 23 days in a row (this comic being the 24th, like a week or two late). Probably going to go back and color them to give me a chance to work out a good coloring process.
Daily comic #15. Probably gonna give up this comic-a-day thing at the end of January, then go back and color all the ones I've done so far.
