Idiot 🥚❤️🪨

the concept of star-eating microbes causing a crisis and the solution being the introduction of space wolves to space yellowstone to control the space elk population. i love a good trophic cascade

dr ryland grace immediately pitching "turn the spaceship into a giant centrifuge to generate gravity" and then not balancing his actual centrifuge later on

the entire "life is reason" scene really

grace forgetting to open the mystery alien container in a fume hood AND immediately sticking his nose in it. if we did this in chemistry lab we were executed on the spot

academia drama being one of the cornerstones of grace's character

grace switching through every spectrum setting on the microscope to try to see into the astrophages and not being able to (relatable)

also: the astrophage dying and grace going "ohhh it died..." (very relatable)

grace having his not-scientist buddy Carl to give him frank solutions when he's overthinking. yes, often the solution is just to put the box in another box

copious duct tape usage

just sticking a filter into the path of the petrova line to collect astrophage goop

eva going "so it's alive" when grace tells them the astrophage are moving, and him being like "WELL ok that could be for a lot of reasons" in the tone of someone who doesn't even know where to start explaining why that's a hasty assumption

grace referring to the first new astrophage as his and carl's baby multiple times (HIGHLY relatable)

People when an artist actually draws diverse bodies: omg eww ewie I bet you're just jorking it while you draw literally get off the internet ewww

Let’s be honest

no i don't. cheers

But anime and video game boob jiggling is like. The most uncanny valley shit I've ever seen nine times out of ten. You would think people this horny about tits would have actually looked at some but I guess not.

@veylocke-murderbox i hear you, i offer this amendment, tempered with the fear that one day soon, this polycule may grow to cover all of Seattle the entire server and beyond

@fruitwanderer dear god the polycule is expanding at a rapid speed, at this rate... no one is safe

@falsiesgf take my hand, look at me: if i ever make yaoi exclusive anything, feel free to pelt me with tomatoes. i do fear the polycule may be nearing unprecedented levels of strength that approach the political power of a small nation. if the metamours start unionizing, it's over

hello @thefleshling thank you for your call. i am pleased to unveil the HD remaster of this godforsaken shitpost because things were getting a little out of hand and a little crunchy. we now have every single active hermit present and accounted for (if anyone has a better placement for jev please let me know)

dear @queer-enderdragon and @pomodoko thank you for your correspondence and for dragging my stupid ass back into the building again. you will find the latest iteration of The Chart below, as well as this update's patch notes. please know that i am scared. yours kindly, barkingupthelittlewood
