cradling the em dash in my hands what the fuck have they done to you

[Description: TikTok video from @/diabetic4one in which a kid is standing in front of a microphone in a school gymnasium holding up bird plushies and very precisely imitating the sounds each bird makes, as the audience of other children becomes more and more excited and impressed. Below it is a still from the video of a kid in the front row turning around and making a "mind blown" gesture. /end description]

to me, the cruelest thing that eva stratt does is not the kidnappig itself. it's that she tells grace that he does not even have a dog. dr ryland grace, a man who dedicated his life to the greater good, first to science and then to teaching, does indeed not have a dog. and because of this, he has to spend his last precious moments on his home planet with the full knowledge that while he might be smart enough to save the world, he is not loved enough by anyone on it to be worth saving

you have to remember it's always always worse on twitter
