HIGH BODY COUNTS ARE OKAY

Spent today writing an n-body simulator in Unity, then stuffing increasingly
unhinged numbers of bodies into it at once. The animation below is
underwhelming. It’s far more fun as an interactive project, where you can tweak
all the parameters in real time, as the simulation runs. 0:00 /0:58

WISH FULFILLMENT

For October, I want to re-post this flash fiction short story I originally wrote
on 3 September 2018, called “Wish Fulfillment.” I share it here in its original
form. I was probably rewatching a lot of old Twilight Zone episodes around the
time I wrote it, because I have a

THE WRITING APP I WANT

I have a pretty clear idea of the writing app I want, and I don’t think it
exists. What I’m looking for is an app which lets me control a document’s
content, structure, and presentation separately from one another, at composition

TWILIGHT ZONE: “YOU’RE THE DEVIL!”

It’s cold, dark, and wintry just now, so obviously I’m watching old Twilight
Zone episodes (from the original series run) to feel cheery and festive. In any
case, I was watching the episode “Escape Clause” when I thought to GIF this
brief reaction. video2gif command video2gif Media/TV/The\ Twilight\

SEVERANCE: “LET’S BURN THIS PLACE TO THE GROUND.”

Back in September, I rewatched Severance. I had intended to make more GIFs from
this rewatch, but in the end, I only made a couple of Irving from the episode
“Defiant Jazz.” I’ve included these below so you can download and reuse them.
(Hotlinking would be rude, though.) video2gif command

DOMINO EFFECT

I’ve officially made something in 3D for the first time. I’m posting just to
commemorate the occasion because I’m bizarrely proud of getting started finally
with Unity. Unity is a framework for making video games, and the first thing
I’ve done is play with rigid-body physics. Specifically, I created a

WHERE IN THE ONLINE IS EMILY?

Social media chaos reigns. The center cannot hold. Mere anarchy is loosed upon
the world. Anyway, this post is just to update on where I am attempting to have
a social media presence of any kind: * Website: emily.news (obviously) *

CLOSE ENCOUNTERS AND CONTACT: “MY GOD”

Realized this might be a good place to share the originals for some new GIFs
I’ve made in the last couple of days.

HYPERFIXATIONS OF THE NOW

Not sure if or how I want to try to use this website, but I am going to add a
list of my current hyperfixations to the site. “Hyperfixations” is probably not
exactly the right word. This is more about my ever revolving Lazy Susan of
special interests. Seems like
