Finding new and unique ways to make parabolic mirrors more efficiently and inexpensively

Imagine being into generative AI when the moon is literally red as I type this. You could be looking at the Orion Nebula right now instead of staring at a screen playing charades with a soulless marionette dancing under the hands of billionaires who you’re giving a direct line straight into your brain, bypassing all critical thought

Telescope! A really, really bad telescope. I cannot recommend that you avoid cheap Celestron scopes enough. The fact that the spherical primary mirror is the best part of the scope really says something lmao

But hey, better to have a tiny dobsonian and the world’s worst equatorial mount, than to have a tiny dobsonian and no equatorial mount. Now I just got to save up for a couple years so I can spend a cool thou on a half-decent mount

Essentially. It’s kind of a fuzzy definition, but it refers to characters who, even if they aren’t explicitly stated to be children within the canon of their story, are obviously meant to look/act like children. It’s a controversial subject, in part because it’s somewhat subjective, and in part because pedophiles don’t like being called out

The most controversial example I can think of is this character from Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid. She has just enormous breasts. Like, half of her body weight is in her chest. Real weird fetish shit. But also, if you take away the frankly disgusting tits, it’s literally just a kid

Dudes who like jerking off to her really don’t like when you point that out

I’m so incredibly okay with this, no matter how the universe opts to interpret it

Me but with anime and pedophiles

If someone enters a conversation saying child-coding isn’t a thing, they get a free block

Let’s think of some differences. Cars have license plates and steering wheels.

There’s one angle that I feel like we’re not acknowledging: maybe it’s something in the house that makes it not go. Sinks, or perhaps beds?
