I've discovered that if I take a bunch of quotes from @the-haiku-bot and put them on PD/CC0 images with the right font, they can look downright profound. Or amusing.

SPOILERS FOR THE SIMS 4 STRANGERVILLE

Currently debating if I should have my Sim Stanford Pines eat the Bizarre Fruit.

On one hand, it'll get him possessed by the Mother Plant and I'm worried that'll be annoying to deal with. On the other hand, it is 10000% in character for this man to take one look at the "seriously don't eat this it's weird and dangerous" fruit and put it in his mouth. But on the other other hand, you'd think he'd have learned something from his experiences with Bill. (Well, I do, anyway.) But on the other other other hand, the story can be pre-character development.

So I'm going to let the good people of Tumblr decide! I'm sure I won't regret this at all!

My headcanon is that the effect on the eyes is actually pretty subtle-- it's just made unsubtle for the sake of the audience. If you looked closely, you'd see that the eye proportions were off and maaaaybe notice a bit of jaundice. But you'd have to look closely (or be some kind of retina scanner or something).

The biggest tell is Bill's behavior, which I still consider a pretty large plot hole. Nobody was even a little bit weirded out when "Dipper" dumped soda all over his face? Or offered to tell Soos the exact time of his death? I guess it all happened off-screen? (Apparently the writers were going to add stuff but ran out of time in the episode. Personally, I think Sock Opera should've been a multi-part episode, but I don't know what it would take for Disney to approve that or whatever.)

the reason no one noticed dipper was possessed in the puppet episode was because the only physical thing that changed were his eyes and the entire pines family are autistic and dont like eye contact

Ma'am that is way more than one shot of olive oil put the bottle down

That one is not that much of a stretch. Texas Instruments is first and foremost a semiconductor company. That means its main product is microchips (which TI made commercially viable and was instrumental in proliferating) and things that can be made from microchips like vocal synthesizers (like the Speak and Spell). Built from the ashes of the defunct Geophysical Service Incorporated in 1951, it actually did work for the seismology part of the oil industry and military defense before it invented the handheld calculator in 1967. Thematically, missiles aren't that far off from military submarine navigation systems and covert monitoring of Soviet nuclear tests.

Plus, the underlying math for calculating points in multidimensional space is basically the same regardless of what the space is or what the points represent. A calculator is highly generalized in functionality. So even if TI did start out as a calculator company, it really wouldn't be that hard from an engineering standpoint to take the basic calculation hardware (or more likely, multiple calculators' worth of hardware) and affix it to a missile rather than a dot-matrix screen.
