Last night I had a very realistic zombie apocalypse dream where I got separated from my family. The shelter I was in fell to pieces when a almost-zombie busted in, then everything else collapsed from there and I had to fight my way out with... something. I think it was a big purple hat. I ended up in the wealthy part of town where a nice rich guy (who looked kind of a lot like my 7th grade science teacher) let me stay at his house and helped me not get zombified by his zombie-dog who bit me. Eventually I got a hold of my friends and they helped me get back home. I spent most of the time on a dream-computer watching news videos.
When I woke up I figured the "apocalypse" didn't last too long because a bunch of people and animals had immunity and/or slowed zombification due to all the pollution in the world (I was tired, okay?).
This is weird since I never usually think about zombies at all. But it was a cool dream.

Does anyone know any decent websites for writing? I'm not looking to make cheddar off of it, I just want a place to write where other people will read it and give feedback. I tried writing a little bit on the creative writing subreddit, but I didn't get any feedback.

I've noticed that people do a lot of writing on Deviant Art with text submissions. Someone used to have me read his stuff on there and ask for critiques (though I am awful at judging written works beyond spelling).

Google's giving me a million returns for what to do when a baby rolls over onto its face while sleeping, and zero for what to do if you're a grown-booty man and doing the same thing.
The A in this case stands for Armageddon. As in, Armageddon a boner because this plane has a fucking HOWITZER sticking out of it.

You generally wont suffocate in your sleep if you do it as an adult

Thanks! This seems to be exactly the type of thing I'm looking for.

I've been working a lot on my game lately and here is a diagram featuring 70% of my classes as of now. I just added the animations to the diagram and I'm amazed no lines are touching.

I need to learn how visual programming stuff works. I understand it even less than looking at actual raw code data.

UML can be confusing. My classmates and I still confuse the direction of the arrows most of the time, and adding cardinality makes it even worse. Also, this diagram features multiple inheritance, which isn't very common and makes it harder to understand. I'm using more, smaller classes this time around, so I don't actually have that many occurrences of multiple inheritance. The first project I did with that programming language, however...

Did you use any specific program to draw this? I've been having to use Microsoft Visio a lot lately and you mentioning touching lines triggered me.

I've been using Visual Paradigm (Community Edition), since I have to use it in my classes anyways, and it's freeware. It works pretty well for me but I have no experience with other similar programs.

edit: Just to be sure, I positioned every item myself. Visual Paradigm has several auto-positioning algorithms (some avoid touching lines more than others) but you usually have to do some small fixes yourself, and it loses any visual semantics you could give it by making it yourself.

I tried to learn how to us the visual scripting thing in Unreal Engine 3/4, but I was totally lost. Made me wish they still used Uscript, but I think I'll need to go ahead and try to pick up C++ when I get a PC.

Also, that second diagram.

Oh you meant actual visual programming and not code visualization? I've only heard of it a week ago and I've never seen it. It's probably good for beginners and non-computer scientists (the guy who told me about it is doing a bachelor's in physics) but I assume it must get impractical fast once you have a lot of code.
