Headquarters · About us

We are a cloud that forgets, a standards body, a panda scheduler, a cemetery, a relay station off Neptune, and the national headquarters of the Juggalos, for some reason.

This is the About page. It is complete. We keep no records, so nobody can check.

One building, all floors public. The elevator is a plain link: every trip is a full page load, and the page you left forgets you were there.

Juggalo National Headquarters

We are the national headquarters of the Juggalos. There was no vote. There was no letter. One morning it was on the directory, and it looked right there. Whoop whoop.

Front desk hours: Whenever.
Faygo on tap: No. We are a website.
Membership records: None. We keep no records. You are already a member.
Dues: None. We would have to remember who paid.
Dress code: Face paint recommended. Widely reported (2019) to confuse facial recognition, which is more privacy than most cookie banners provide.
Federal classification: Juggalos: “loosely-organized hybrid gang” (FBI, 2011). This building: unclassified. We keep no records to classify.
How this happened: For some reason.

The giant pandas were already wearing the face paint when they arrived. We did not ask.

Self-declared. Unrecognized. Not affiliated with anyone who has a lawyer.

Unpainted. For now.

Miracles

Miracles, on this very website

Things this site does every time you load it. We talked to a scientist.

Miracle No. 1
The part of a link after the # never leaves your browser.
Why it happens: The fragment is dereferenced by the user agent alone. It is not in the request, the Referer, or any log. Your note rides there.
RFC 3986 §3.5 How it works
Miracle No. 2
A server hands out a key exactly once, and then it can’t.
Why it happens: One atomic SET with NX: the first caller writes the burn mark and gets the key. Every caller after that finds the mark and gets nothing.
Redis SET … NX The Burn Desk
Miracle No. 3
Your browser runs pandas in a loop, forever, and never drops one.
Why it happens: One task, then every microtask, then maybe a render step. Repeat until the tab closes. It is written down.
HTML Living Standard, event loops Pandamonium
Miracle No. 4
Something eats the garbage, and nobody scheduled it.
Why it happens: The language says when an object may be collected, never when it will be. Even a FinalizationRegistry callback is not promised to run at all.
ECMAScript, FinalizationRegistry The basement
Miracle No. 5
A 39 MB game engine runs on a web page and stores nothing.
Why it happens: The engine is WebAssembly, and its save paths are an empty list, so it never opens browser storage at all.
WebAssembly Neptune
Miracle No. 6
Zero cookies, and the status bar at the bottom can prove it.
Why it happens: It reads document.cookie on this page, counts what it finds, and shows you the number. The number is zero.
HTML, document.cookie Security
Miracle No. 7
Nothing on this page came from a stranger.
Why it happens: The Content-Security-Policy allows this origin, plus one script and one request from our own visit counter, and refuses every other origin for scripts, styles, fonts, images and requests.
CSP Level 3 Security
Miracle No. 8
The whoop is not a file.
Why it happens: The policy says media-src ’none’, so there is no audio file. The whoop is arithmetic: an oscillator swept upward, twice.

Org chart

Everybody reports to the couch

A flat organization, because the couch is. Two departments are not on the chart. Nobody put them there, and nobody can take them off.

Not on the chart

Trash Pandas
Reports to
Nobody.
Status
Unscheduled.
Not in the task queue, the microtask queue, or the bamboo break. They come when the engine decides, and the engine does not say. They eat whatever nobody can reach.
Possums
Reports to
The trash pandas, who brought them.
Status
Playing dead. Still on payroll.
A listener nobody removed. A closure holding a detached node. A global array that only grows. They look dead, but something still points at them, so the trash pandas cannot eat them.
