random but i love that there is no love interest for grace in PHM. so so many times in media we have women meant to swoon over the male MC who does not reciprocate for one reason or another, either not noticing or having more important duties etc. i really like that even though grace makes connections with others theres never insinuated romantic tension. its especially funny in the book when stratt gets upset that theres a woman on the team because she wanted only heterosexual men on board to avoid any potential romantic or sexual tensions that could get in the way. i think stratt is also aroace because that sounds like an assumption an aroace person would make from all the shitty hetslop romance they see in media all the time.

the only conversation they have about stratt being single or whatever is the fact he lives alone with no kids and not even a pet, he has no one specifically to “die for”.

its not that he has no romance is that he has nobody. no pets, no connections with family that we know of, i dont think he even had friends now that i think about it. i think thats why his dynamic with stratt is so interesting. both of them seem like people who just dont make connections with people- making a significant connection that NEITHER of them are actually aware of because they have nothing to compare it to.

like stratt brings grace around a lot and i know its not just to keep him educated. she enjoys what he has to say and enjoys his company but i dont think she even fully realizes that. because she has such a straight edged way of thinking. like “grace has to be there.” there is no because. whenever she’s asked ANYTHING about why this or why that its always the same answer about there being no time to waste on saving the human race.

like they dont notice it but everyone else does and doesnt say anything lmao

I'm finally reading Project Hail Mary and wow the Tumblr posts weren't kidding. Grace really is Eva's emotional support purse dog, who she also elevated to the position of 2nd most important person on the planet.

Girlboss malewife isn't what's going on here. This is... GirlEmperor MaleServingwench-turned Consort-turned Empress. Except Grace still thinks he's a serving wench and gets mad when people try to point out the crown.

big fan of strattland being a little too comfortable in each others' space and weirding everyone else out completely straight-faced

I really like Enola Holmes. Fun character, good movies (and books), and all that. But what are they doing with this modern wedding dress and makeup at the end of the third movie? I understand us putting in modern feminist values, but can we please stick to the historically accurate costuming? 🙏🏽😭

before we start posting that july is gay wrath month let’s consider that july is disability pride month first and foremost. the “be gay do crimes” memes can wait

before this post breaches containment and people start going “why not both hehehe” i want you to seriously consider the very long history of disabled people’s existence being pushed aside and/or seen as secondary. i promise you it’s not going to hurt to hold onto the memes and give disabled people space for visibility and celebration.

i say this as a disabled trans person whose trans identity is made front-and-center to the (mainly cis) people who know i’m trans but my identity as a disabled person is brushed off by the very same people.

this might be kind of a reach but is there a way for printers to connect to devices so that documents can be printed from them

You will be remembered as a hero. ________

For those wondering about the fox. Grace has a subtle motif with this animal throughout the movie, but especially this shot where they pack this toy fox with his belongings on the Hail Mary. The pose of it looked a little haunting to me, thus prompting this illustration. __________ (Small/large prints are also available on my etsy ❤️)

i love love loooove 'better than the fucking yankees' because shane's not just some hockey-obsessed jock, he's a straight up jock across the board. he's an all-rounder!!! he's a hockey player, and hockey players literally spend like 80-90% of their time talking about all the other sports they're watching. he watches sportscenter like it's the nightly news, has the baseball on in the background all summer. he's showing up at the olympics for sports simply because he knows the athletes, and as a top canadian athlete with his level of marketing and sponsorship, he's met and knows A Lot of athletes. he's getting invited to grand slam tournaments. he's reading all those high performing athlete biographies. he has an opinion on who's going to win the super bowl, who looks good in the nba, which teams will do best in the world cup, who's in form for the masters. in tlg he's participating in the great canadian pastime of putting on some late night australian rugby/aussie rules just for the sake of having some live sports running in the background. he and ilya put the tennis on later in the book for the same reason. that boy is a fucking jock!!!

baby Ilya’s tiny angry Russian ranting when Irina won’t let him stay on the ice and his cheeks are all bright pink and his little nose is wet and he’s plopping down onto the ice and crossing his arms and yelling NYET NYET NYET.

Across the ocean at the exact same time, the exact same thing is happening to a very exhausted Yuna Hollander.

Keith Haring's story is usually told as a solo rise, but that version leaves out Angel "LA II" Ortiz, a Puerto Rican artist from the Lower East Side who collaborated with Haring from the very beginning. Angel was a teenager when they met, already active in the neighborhood's graffiti culture. He taught Keith how tagging worked on the street, painted alongside him, and guided him through spaces Keith did not come from. Angel's tags, infill, and visual language appear across works that later became associated with Keith Haring's public legacy.

After Keith Haring's death, the story changed. Museums mounted exhibitions, publishers released books, and merchandise entered the market under a single name.

In that process, Angel Ortiz was framed as hired labor instead of a collaborator, even though his work remains visible on paintings, sculptures, and objects shown in major institutions today. Angel has said openly that race played a role in his erasure, and photographer Clayton Patterson has explained how institutions chose a simpler version of the story that centered one white artist and removed a Puerto Rican collaborator. Angel Ortiz is still working as an artist today, and the time has come for the art world to give him clear credit for the work he helped create…yuliaxgon

I was high off my ass last night and had this dream where I was in this dense ass forest and sitting there was a tall woman. She was so tall I couldn’t see her face but she was wearing gold and I was like “uh…hi?” And she said “I made you, do you know that?” And I nodded and she was like “I hear your thoughts. Why do you hate my creation? Why do you try to destroy yourself? I made you perfect as you are. Please don’t break my heart”. Then she started crying and it flooded and I woke up with fucking heart palpitations like what does it Mean™️????
