bi so curious ?

ultimately the truth about frankenstein is that we are all grotesque amalgamations of the best and worst parts of everyone who came before us. and sometimes the people who are supposed to love us because of and in spite of this will not. and we can kill them with hammers for that. and i think that’s beautiful

well i can’t argue with that one

Ah yes, Mary Shelley’s monster.

no mary shelley is the name of the monster not the doctor

common misconception! mary shelley's monster was actually lord byron

it’s so magical and beautiful that there are sprawling interconnected cave systems carved deep into the earth by various geological forces and you don’t have to go in them. there are miles and miles of stone passageways in total darkness that require you to exhale all the air out of your lungs to squeeze through parts of them and you don’t have to be there. some of these squeezes are underwater and require cave divers to take off their oxygen tanks and push them through ahead of them and me i am above ground looking at the sky as we speak. there are untold subterranean wonders no human has ever seen and i will not be the one to discover them #grateful #blessed

why is no one talking about the book reunion scene. did you know when grace explains that he’s going to die of starvation, rocky immediately tells him to leave and go back home, that he’ll just keep waiting, that erid might send another ship someday. i’m going crazy. rocky had probably completely accepted his fate and then grace miraculously appeared and gave him back his life and his home. and he was instantly willing to give it all up again just so grace could survive. can anyone hear me. this is insane. i’m insane

Mesopotamian girl sending clay tablets to her best friend who lives five city states to the west: what if..... Enkidu begot Gilgamesh with child?🤭

aftercare but for your job

This counts as fan art

on the topic of gracerocky infidelity, i wonder if anyone's written a scenario where Grace doesn't ask about the whole Adrian situation before hooking up with Rocky (as usually happens in fics); he just assumes (wrongly) that Eridians are non-monogamous - he doesn't want to impose his own cultural mores on an alien species and surely Rocky wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't kosher - and as they get closer to Erid he's like "so how is it going to work? between me and Adrian?" and Rocky gets all shifty and guilty and goes "Rocky will handle" and Grace goes 🫪 ...handle what. Rocky. Handle what.

dude, this is really scary, and liminal as well. It's like the bathrooms

First of all he's not my boyfriend he's some other shit. Plus scientists don't even know the ramifications of it's hazards yet
