Because I'm a constant disappointment to myself

If you do not have a job then it's your duty to post about the characters Constantly. If you do have a job then it's your duty to imagine the characters in your job and also to neglect your job so you can post about the characters Constantly

you seem avoidant for a girl who’s so hungry to experience the full breadth of human connection

my love language is the same as a crow. if you’re nice to me i’ll bring you useless little trinkets from my travels that made me think of you

I love that Grace says he and Rocky "haven't run into anything where our cultures clash" while they're actively navigating two pretty major points of difference. From Grace's perspective, being watched in your sleep is sort of unnerving; for Rocky it's imperative. From Rocky's perspective, eating is taboo and private; for Grace it's a casual, social activity. When Grace says they haven't run into any culture clashes, he's just woken up to Rocky watching him and now he's eating breakfast. It's obviously not true that they have no conflicts in their social norms! It's just that they instinctively accommodate each other with curiosity and empathy, finding ways to bend on the things that matter to each other and explain when something is really important to themselves. Grace has spent his life holding other people at arm's length, and then in Rocky he meets someone who makes him want to do the work, and that work becomes so natural he doesn't even realise he's doing it.

i firmly believe that one of the reasons tumblr latched onto project hail mary so hard is because we're all so obsessed with the dead wife trope lately and grace is his own dead wife. half of the book/film is grace experiencing a dead wife montage about himself and that's beautiful to me

sometimes i be saying im gonna go to bed and then i dont go to bed. frequently in fact. this is because i have the heart of an optimist and the soul of a liar

Project Hail Mary is wonderful bc it’s the kind of story that would normally be a sweeping romance - they were destined to find each other, they love each other to the point of saving their entire worlds - but its not a romance! Friendship can be the thing that propels you to save the world!

the mutuals you have nothing in common with anymore fandom-wise are so important to the dash ecosystem...... #biodiversity

Insane how they can still do this. Like just show up and kidnap a president of a supposedly sovereign country

Watching NBC. “They took Maduro into custody” its incredible. Into “custody”

Everything the US does along these lines is also a show of force intended for the rest of the world imo. Like hi in case you forgot (we didn’t) we can and will operate with complete impunity

Will you still be blogging with me when we’re 64
