Do you think after they send the taumeoba samples to Venus and the apocalypse is averted, there are people back on Earth who are like "See, this is why we should pay teachers more"

[astriiformes]

The United Educators of San Francisco do a press release at some point that's like "Former UESF union member Dr. Ryland Grace has officially saved the planet, proving once again that teachers are undervalued"

#however long round trip transmission time takes they get a message from Grace: #former?? :( (via @one-true-houselight)

The lungi is a traditional garment worn in many southern states of India. It's different from the dhoti, in that it is a tubular shape (like

Since we are here might as well share the dhoti and the lungi

It’s only men in the photos but really anyone can wear them. I am wearing a lungi right now.

I also know Thailand and Sri Lanka have their versions of a lungi as well.

do you ever just think about how it was joe + nicky + andy + quynh for centuries, just the four of them, and then they lost quynh and then it was just joe + nicky + andy, and how joe + nicky were probably there during andy's worst moments and how they must have become so much closer because of it and how then it was just the three of them after that until booker showed up and then the way they greet each other at the start of the movie and how nicky brings andy baklava and how joe picks her up and how they're both so obviously worried for her at the end of the movie and how all three of them love each other so, so much because even in andy's darkest moments she had them and they had her and how they're family because i do, a lot,

my knight you have to live you have to get up you have to put your hand over your wound and hold it there. you have to keep walking and walking and walking because you cannot lay down yet, it’s not time. wipe the blood off your breastplate and look up into the sun. lean on your sword if you need to. lift one foot after another. get up. get up. this would be a pitiful grave.

“This would be a pitiful grave” is now my new go-to when I’m sad or upset. God that’s fire

Once again thinking about this bit from one way or another:

“'Nancy Wheeler? She’s little miss Hawkins. Smart girl. Good girl.'

There are three guns stashed in my bedroom right now, Nancy thought.”

She seems like your stereotypical girl next door, but she’s got this entire other world she’s entangled and involved in. She’s not what she seems on the surface. So much of her character is about rejecting the heteronormative picket fence nuclear family. I feel like realizing she’s queer would be such a natural progression for her character.

also really hit home by:

“You think I want that?… A boy, a wedding, a family. You think I want to be like you?”

Like what is the straight explanation for her even saying that? It’s one thing for her to list off a wedding and family as something she doesn’t want, but including a boy in that list? Girlie, what?

She's so queer coded its insane.

literally though if you feel like your life is slipping through your fingers and every day goes too fast… try doing hard things, not just taking the easy route, like reading and making art and exercising and cooking a meal from scratch and journaling, doing these things without distraction, without being absorbed on a screen… the time will stretch and you’ll be reminded that life is long and beautiful if you make it so.

Yanessa Halovar is killing it with the republican tactics - undermine and strangle a public institution till it’s useless, then swoop in and say “why do we have this, how horrible, best to do away with it”

One of the compelling things about Project Hail Mary is that you can't fix it.

"What if Stratt didn't force Grace to go?" Then the Earth dies.

"What if Yao and Ilyukhina had survived?" Then they all would have died in space, not enough food to get to Earth or Erid

If the Taomoeba hadn't escaped then Grace would have never seen his best friend again. Returning to a world he loves but no longer recognizes.

If the stars weren't dying then Grace never would have met his best friend at all. Living content but alone.

Project Hail Mary is a hopeful story. It is a story of friendship and what it means to be brave. It's a story about saving the world.

But you can't remove the tragedy of the story without making it unrecognizable. It's written into the bones.

fucked that you can’t fix other people especially when you really care about them. Oh so im just supposed to be there for you while you suffer. like a useless cunt gargoyle
