Oh that’s cool. The data themes work here. They didn’t on the original wp forums which was frustrating.

Yeah wow okay so yours is alot smarter and cleaner than how I did mine. Kinda jealous I didn’t figure that out x.x

Edit: Oh wait I think it’s the same technique, we just structure our code differently xD.
Edit 2: Got rid of some redundant code.

BackNext She saw a boy in the water.
BackNext Watching.
BackNext Watching..
BackNext Watching...
BackNext But that was all he ever did.
BackNext He was there every morning as she washed her face in the bathroom sink, he was there again in the night and every other time she saw her own reflection.

BackNext He was there every morning as she washed her face in the bathroom sink, he was there again in the night and every other time she saw her own reflection.
BackNext “Why don’t you say something?

Speak out and let them know you’re real.”
BackNext The boy did not respond but stared back at her with the same pleading eyes, which grew more and more desperate by the day.
BackNext “I know” she said,
BackNext “One of these days you’ll be free."
BackNext As she reached out to the boy, he too reached out to her, only when they touched,
BackNext ...the ripples distorted his image before the water in the sink began to steady and his image began to reform.
BackNext Outside she could hear footsteps getting louder and louder as it approached. This isn’t me, she thought looking down at her dress.
BackNext How many times had she tried to break free now? Tried to speak out only to have her words caught in her throat.
BackNext How many times had she tried to break free now? Tried to speak out only to have her words caught in her throat.
BackNext The door behind her was thrown open,
BackNext “Everything okay dear?
BackNext ... You looked like you had something to say to us and your father and I got worried when you ran off.”
BackNext She didn’t turn around but took a moment to compose herself. Leaning over the sink she looked into the boy’s eyes and said aloud
BackNext “Oh yes, I’m fine, just wanted to say I love you so much.”
The boy stared back at her with those eyes, ever so pitiful.

Edit:
If anyone is reading this, here is the updated version: Nyctophilia; a coding thread (new/old coders are encouraged to join!) - #250 by SockMonster1



This is one of my codes I was working on during the wp days. I first posted it on wacky to keep it safe for when the official wp forums died but that thread has now been sunk and hidden but now that people seem to be interested in coding again I thought I’d repost it here and hope someone can use this technique to create something cool.

Just finished updating it yet again since discourse did some updates (9 days ago I think it was) which broke all my svg animations x.x

My word was ‘crescent’ and…

The lips :sparkles:

So for this activity, I chose the word “lassitude.”


lassitude noun
/ˈlæs.ə.tuːd/
a state of physical or mental weariness; lack of energy
lassitude: a poem

gulping cups
of sweet, hot tea
body stays up
on depleting energy

heavy eyelids
tap each other
oh God forbid
I succumb to slumber

mouth opens
and yawns audibly
neck weakens
head tilts slowly

jolt upright
must withstand
the call of night
and its beckoning hand

lassitude consumes
my remaining vigor
across the room
awaits torpor

soon I plummet
onto the bed
pillows and blankets
meet my head

darkness surrounds
breaths grow deep
in absence of sounds
I fall asleep

Kingdom Animalia
There are seven major phyla in Kingdom Animalia, and each one is different. Animals have many differentiated kinds of cells (except for sponges) and are typically diploid, in addition to not having cell walls. There are many more crustaceans than chordates comparatively.
Poliferae
Poliferae are sponges! They are marine animals (except for one species of freshwater sponge), and all sponges are capable of both fatherhood and motherhood.
Cnidara
Cnidaria are jellyfish, corals, and anemonies! While they are all drastically different, some clues lead us to believe they all share a common ancestor.
Platyhelminthes
Platyhelminthes are flatworms! They are all made up of three layers of cells, and they all are internal parasites that have barely any internal organs.
Annelida
Annelids are segmented worms! These include leeches, earthworms, and other bristled worms! While some are parasites, some are not.
Mollusca
Mollusca means mollusks! There are an estimated 200,000 species of mollusks worldwide, and all mollusks have an exoskeleton made of chitin.
Arthropoda
Arthropods make up 75% of all living (and fossilized) organisms. Like Mollusks, they have exoskeletons of chitin, but they are also motile.
Chordata
Chordates are known for having a backbone. This phylum includes humans, chimpanzees, alligators, snakes, birds, and any fishes.
Coded by a friendly Siren. I hope you learned something about animals!
