## About The Pull Request

This shit was broken:

Ew, the alt text is bad too. Anyways, this is because the badge servicer
we use has been down for the last two weeks, as detailed in
https://github.com/BraveUX/for-the-badge/issues/252. There is no ETA on
getting the service back up, and I was able to use the trick detailed in
that issue in order to grab the SVGs of those images and then move those
to a folder in our repository, and then have the readme pull it from
there. **This has been stated to be okay by the project in their
repository's readme** btw, but I included an attributions page in the
new folder I made.

Much nicer to no longer have that external dependency. I also cleaned up
some other code (tied up the alt text, made the coverage more accurate,
etc. etc.). I'm not sure if it's worthwhile to also selfhost the comic
links (as well as potentially running awry of CC 3.0 regulations), but I
think this much is fine for now. You can see an example of this working
here: https://github.com/san7890/bruhstation/tree/readers#readme

I don't know if the service will ever come back again, but given that
it's been two weeks, I'm not really much willing to wait it out.
Self-hosting this stuff is poggers anyhow
