a critique of project hail mary that i’ve seen is that rocky is infantilized and i think there’s genuine merit to that statement BUT i think rocky also very clearly views grace as a childish too. they’re just two very competent scientists meeting another life form and going “DAMN this guy does not know how to be alive! i’m going to teach him” and that’s the beauty of it!

Dead wife but it's a flashback to an amazing sandwich you had 3 years ago

let love in. believe compliments. be vulnerable and soft-hearted. tell people you love that you love them. see beauty in everyday things. live life like you’re in a movie. don’t be afraid to begin again.

what nobody tells you about weekends is that it’s already monday

if you spend your life bitching and complaining about the fact people are 'expected' to engage in the dreaded pointless banal '''small talk''' instead of learning to trade pleasantries with the people around you, you will never know the true and heady joy of doing a dumb bit with a complete stranger and as a result your soul will remain small

#my favorite bit is when i wear my wrist braces in public and someone asks if I got hurt#and I tell them something patently insane #'I got into a Kung Fu Battle with the local canada geese' insane #and realizing that We Are Playing A Game #they will Yes And me #'Oh yeah they've been taking lessons from the squirrels' they nod #and within two minutes the lady cutting my fabric at the quilt store and I have a whole bit about the urban animals all being in rival dojo #The grandma behind me chimes in that the fat raccoons under her porch must be doing Sumo

Not wanting to have sex is NOT a problem. It doesn’t matter if you are asexual or allo, there is nothing wrong with not wanting sex. It’s just an activity. That’d be like saying that if you don’t like soccer, you need to go to soccer therapy to figure out why you dislike it and figure out how to like it because it’s for your own good. See how ridiculous that sounds? IT IS OK TO NOT WANT TO HAVE SEX AND IT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED!!!!!!

"work in progress" is actually so misleading like it assumes that im actually making progress on my work

if you aren't best friends with your lover and a little bit in love with all your friends than what's the fucking point

IT’S FUCKING WHAT NOW!?
