Hello! I saw your message. I replied in my guestbook, but I did run out of characters to go over some specifics. The extra thing I wanted to mention is that I'm just importing a minimized version of jquery that I am serving locally. But there are a number of ways to have your site import jquery. However, since I assume it's just my script using it, it may not be necessary for you to go and get it just for that.
Hi! I saw your question about the light reading code. I have a bad habit of just putting all my scripts at the bottom of my page, so I have moved the light reading script into a proper file, which you can see by going here: https://houseinthewoods.yorniq.xyz/resources/js/quote-slideshow.js

It fetches a json data file which you can see here: https://kadorath.github.io/resources/data/quotes.json This contains the quotes that I want to be randomly selected from, and I can just add data there and update my github repo and it will update on my website in turn. The code "randomly" selects from the list of quotes by randomly generating a number from 0-3 and moving forward in the list that amount.

There's some legacy, like... resample code there or something? The way I randomly sampled changed over time, so honestly that probably isn't necessary anymore, but I just haven't touched it. Really you can randomly sample however you wish. Hope that helps! And feel free to ask me if you have any more questions.
i unfortunately didn't get it to work :( but! i made something that i'm happy with using a string array. it cycles through text not by random but it's good enough for me now, thank you so much for the help nonetheless!! <3
