At least it looks like it's not AI-generated for once.

I don't remember exactly how, but you can specify a compiler using arcane magic I don't fully understand to compile for a baremetal target. Some people do full OS dev in just Rust, though usually C and ASM are involved to bootstrap. It can be somewhat arcane, though.

Well, so like, there are the constellations that the signs are based on, but there's also the segments the year is cut into with the same names. I assumed they were still (at least mostly) in line with the calendar, unless they had to inscribe a new astrolabe every year which isn't impossible. So the full moon aligning with the Capricorn constellation during the 29th degree of Capricorn, which I'll assumed she got the date right; I don't have an astrolabe on hand. EDIT: I think they misread, it appears to be the 29⁰ of Cancer, but maybe location has something to do with it?

I also love the use of æ but then th instead of ð/þ. I don't know the word they're going for to know which letter is correct, but I figure it's meant to be Old English as that's a popular choice for Anglocentric white supremacists who don't understand either history or linguistics.

I really loved my dogs, and was really sad when they died. May be a bit bourgois of me, but I got small stuffed animals made in their likeness. I think it helped me move on. A full clone certainly feels wrong. As much as I hate death, something about its looming presence seems important.

Okay, but do you KNOW Vriska?

Am I wrong, or isn't #NeverAgain supposed to be about the Holocaust (or genocide more broadly) and he's using it here to say he doesn't want Trump again? Trump was bad, but maybe a little tone deaf given the current actual genocide going on.

I get vibes of someone with a psychotic disorder. Sounds like they needed help, though I don't mean to imply you needed to be the one to help them. I think you made the right choice; just hope they can someday get the help it sounds like they need.

Real schizo here, and as much as I like to believe someone on the schizophrenia spectrum can do anything, I don't think discarding rationality and reality are the best idea. I want to say someone with this condition could be president, but honestly unless they are in a very good state (well-medicated, good therapy, and possibly a bit of luck too) I don't think they would be best suited for that job. Which isn't to say there aren't ableism and sanism issues in our country, but I don't think that's what's happening here.

Ah yeah, that makes more sense. Fits the setting much better.

What kind of chaos god would they make? I wouldn't be terribly opposed to a lord of altruism or comradery, though I don't know too much about the Tau.

I mean, not normalizing self-harm would be cool too.
