what a beautiful day to not be in high school

This is the like those “remember to be grateful you don’t have a sore throat right now” posts. It IS a beautiful day to not be in high school! Thank you!

grace was just another choice she had to make. it wasnt difficult for all the reasons that it was. i think a large part of her character that the movie forgot (aside from her ruthlessness). was the aspect of no time for diplomacy. she was placed in charge because of her ability to get things done. everything is a chain reaction. the human race did not have time to deliberate. the book made a point of mentioning to time to peer review any reasearch being done and people just enmass publishing their findings. the explosion of the center due to the astrophage felt particuarly poignant to me. because it really soldified the mass human panic of operating without any safety channels. there is a reason we delibrate and we ponder and argue and have precautions in place. and to me it just really signals this sense of urgency that there is no time for caution in the mad scramble to save humanity. she paved the desert and blew up the artic shelf without knowing if it was going to work it was all predicated on theory. so when a choice comes along that really is a no brainer. eva is going to take it. and it just so happened that that choice was sending grace. it was the cleanest and clearest decision she had to make throughout the whole project really. she knew he was too stubborn to stay down - too smart to not be a part of this - that he was a good man. (which is not the same as saying as what shes doing isnt unforgivable or horrible). she knows shes ‘going to hell that hell is coming to us’ and those are really the same thing in a way. so it was a really easy simple choice to her. none of it is ever done maliciously. she did horrible horrible things but she knows. she KNOWS she is doing horrible things. but the motivator for it is that if somebody doesnt. push them along them life as they know it will cease to exist. she has no time for guilt or pity or upset. no time for deliberation. stop your crying its a sign of the times (via @bulkhummus)

Male characters who would work better as butch women stretch as far as the eye can see

Can anyone help me find the rest of this? The only references to it I can find online are to this page.

Oh so THIS is the ps5 post. I can see why you all imprinted on it now that’s hilarious

I feel so many feelings about Rocky during the first contact. He wants to connect SO BADLY. Do Eridians have horror stories about scary aliens? If they do, Rocky doesn't care. He wants this alien to be friendly. He does everything he can to accommodate. Here, a little gift I'm sending your way at the speed you're comfortable with. Please be there. Here, the next gift is going right into your airlock so that it's easier for you to catch. Please don't fly away. You made a strange gesture with your limb, I'll make my robot make that gesture back. Please belive that I'm friendly. Here's a tunnel to connect us, I'll make sure you can breathe in it. Please come meet me. I'll let you choose the material for the wall separating us; I'll rebuild the whole wall if it makes you more comfortable, no trouble, just please let's talk. You're all alone on your ship, I can hear it, please come sleep here where I can watch you, it's unsafe for you to be alone. I'm alone and scared, it's been 46 years since I felt safe while sleeping, please please please watch me sleep too. I'm very vulnerable when I sleep and I trust that you won't use it against me. I want to visit your ship, am allowed, question? I'm moving in with you. Let's save the stars.

Literally always take headphones with you. If you decide that you probably won't need them today, that's the devil talking. You will. You will
