gollark: Looks perfectly consistent to me!
gollark: See, THIS is on my 404 page and rotates utterly, as well as changing color.
gollark: I think you can do better with CSS animations.
gollark: There are better systems for electing representatives than the extremely terrible first-past-the-post one in use, but nobody is using those. I don't trust people enough to expect direct democracy to produce remotely favourable outcomes. But the politicians who get elected are also quite bad, so who knows.
gollark: How long do eels take to recharge? If you swap out the eels fast enough, it should be possible to keep a current constantly.
