And here's to falling in love with the ship's capt

you have to be kinder to people who are slow processors.

you have to be kinder to people who don't understand your jokes.

you have to be kinder to people who forget important dates.

you have to be kinder to people with cognitive decline.

you have to be kinder to people who were always this way, too.

Your queernes is not any less valid just because:

You're dating a man or have dated a man.

You have been touched by a man (consentually or not).

You're also attracted to men.

I wanna add that you're not "tainted" because you were touched by a man or men (again consentually or not).

Bisexuals aren't any less queer just because they're also attracted to men. Or happen to date a man after they broke up with a woman.

Lesbians aren't any less of a lesbian just because they have gotten married to a man and have had children, and then later on found out that they are a lesbian.

Not everyone has had the luxury of knowing immediately what their identity is. For some it doesn't take that much time, for others it takes more time.

Grace was put into coma by the people who cared about him. They (especially Yáo being Yáo) probably double-triple-quadruple checked everything. They watched him sleep for those first few days — I doubt they went into coma immediately after leaving Earth's orbit. They probably talked to him, assuring him that he'll be okay.

Ilyukhina's coma procedure was probably supervised by Yáo. He made sure that everything was in order, but — he is just one man and he is not a doctor. There was much more room for mistakes.

When Yáo went to sleep, he was alone. He had to rely on the technology completely.
