im sorry for how bad this looks. yes this is actually what most of my code looks like, yes the minified parts were like that by hand, yes this is painful to look at to a point where i think this is the best place for it. yes, it actually works, at least. also yes there really are 0 comments as to wtf this shit is.

(i mean, theres no rule banning code you wrote yourself...only ai generated, but this was made by hand)
