tbh the funniest thing about Kipperlily's whole thing is half of the Bad Kid's families haven't even suffered from 'intense magical harsdships' or been part of a conspiracy. Like the Thistelsprings are normal. The Applebees are just fundementalists. Bill Seacaster is a Cool Pirate but that's neither a conspiracy nor magic related. He's just, like, rich and eccentric. If Kipperlily had joined the Bad Kids, or ended up as part of the Seven, or encouraged her own party to investigate an actual conspiracy, it wouldn't matter that her parents are normies who went to Mumple. It's like if someone went to an art focused high school and tried to argue that the kids who are traumatized have an unfair advantage in creativity instead of actually looking for something she wanted to express through art.

Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1
The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.
So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.
So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.
Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.
And the probe is working again.
From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.

I have the rare but unique curse of being able to identify parts of songs that sound like other songs (not including samples) and the newest one to the list is the musical break/ 'guitar solo' in Paramore's Hard Times sounds ALOT like another day of sun from La La land
