From Fluff to Horror

Shoutout to Project Hail Mary for being the only media where the unconscious protagonist is dragged off screen by an alien spider monster and the audience's reaction is heartbreak on behalf of the alien spider monster.

There is a new vaccine going into Phase 3 trials from Valneva and Pfizer as well as a monoclonal antibody-based prophylactic treatment being researched at UMass!

"the only cure for this weird disease is the special lizard blood" is a Star Trek TOS plot that escaped into the real world

quetzalcoatlus is one of the most beautiful and awe-striking animals to ever exist. i wouldn’t call it scary, though it would probably be scary to be chased by a galloping giraffe dragon. it’s just incredible how evolution has twisted this living thing into such an insane shape. its wings are so huge and beautifully constructed. the single digit wing membrane connecting to the ankles on its weird flat feet. i love that it walks around on all fours. i wish i could see one fly

Love conversations where every single participant has certified Issues

...why does this have better writing than most actual comedy series about fantasy characters?

.... is one of those guys Blade?

The thing I dislike about alt histories where real life monarchs have been made both gay and unproblematic is that it seems to imply that gay monarchs have not existed in history but if they did they would be cool. Which isn’t true. They have existed and they were just as bad as straight people. And I think it is disrespectful to real queer history to pretend that queer people have never been absolute bastards

“Do it scared” “do it alone” are all great tips, but my biggest takeaway from therapy is do it messy. This is especially true if you’re getting out of a burnout, which I experience often. Literally just do it messy. You don’t need to pick the perfect trail to walk, the perfect playlist to listen to, whatever the fuck it is. You don’t need to have a meticulous to do list and wake up at the exact time you planned and drink the exact amount of water you planned to drink. Like the biggest thing for people like me to remember is sometimes it’s okay to do it messy. Put on a random yt workout and just get it done in sweats. Do 5 minutes of a daunting task and go from there. Sometimes just getting up is a win during intense burnouts or depressive funks. Literally just do it messy.
