          If I had a pair of microcontrollers and an electric keyboard, I’d be totally down. No fucking clue what I’m doing, but it shouldn’t be that hard, right?

                Wait…. There’s a coding language called shashimi?

                Python definitely is my go to on these things- you’d be surprised what you can do with a pi pico or a feather.

                As for the shashimi, shredded shashimi is a thing that exists. It probably shouldn’t, but it does.

                Edit: though sashimi tacos doesn’t sound any where near as bad as most “seafood tacos”….

                  At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised, but I just meant making a decent sashimi dish. Every time I’ve looked in that direction, I’m impressed at how casual they make it look.

      I read the fifth book and still don’t feel like I understand any of it.

        I first read it when I was like 15, tapped out in book 3.

        Read it again as an adult, enjoyed it immensely, still missed a great deal of what was happening.

        Third time I started to really start to plug into what Gene was laying down.

        I’ve read it maybe 6 times now and I pick up new details and meanings every time.

        Obviously that’s a whole lot if you don’t find value in the journey itself, and it’s not like I’m recommending it or anything haha. I always tell people to start with his short stories. The Island Of Doctor Death And Other Stories is a great one.

          Have you read the Long Sun ones that always somehow turn into people walking around dark tunnels for chapters on end? A lot less cryptic, apart from it feeling like everything of significance is happening offpage.
