pretty like pancake batter
i semi-blindly hacked at my usemodwiki installation for a few hours and now text almost looks like the rest of jeweledplatypus. you might need to refresh the stylesheet.
sort of inspired by css wiki zen garden.
oh, and in the process of messing with crap, i broke saving. and there’s a bunch of structure & styles i have to fix. and it’s not nearly valid. so. yeah.
but now it is time for some chemistry homework. wheee.

five more things i find interesting
(possibly loosely related to each other.)
The problem is not that ASCII is too restricted a medium - the problem, if anything, is that text says too much, and that the medium is too intimate!
marshall mcluhan meets william gibson in “cyberspace”
Gibson’s neo-realistic cybervision creates a possible reality that scientists can model as plausible and which (according to Timothy Leary) technophiles can use to reinforce their identities.
Semantic Web researchers, in contrast, accept that paradoxes and unanswerable questions are a price that must be paid to achieve versatility.
The cut-up technique is a specialised literary form in which a text is cut up at random and rearranged to create a new text.
and then you die and they follow you down the street demanding that you grimace and say “brains” again.
