watching grace & rocky & adrian hang out inside the biodome must be the eridian equivalent of when you go to the aquarium and see the trainers chilling in the sea lion exhibit

Dude... allow me to add to your trove.

I have a folder of these on my phone... I'm not sure what that says about me!

This has always bothered me too and it didn't make sense until someone older told me that when they were growing up "scare quotes" were used the way we used *asterisks* or ALL CAPS for emphasis

Something something Erid is a high-pressure, no light planet with liquid water and bioluminescent, lure-based, energy efficient ocean creatures could develop; something something Eridians have close to no spatial memory and therefore worse scale? memory; something something Eridians are the apex land predator specifically.

(All that, and I forgot the suit. Ah well. Point is, they deserve a buddy comedy ending.)

Ad agency: Please don't steal the King's potatoes, no matter how easy it is.

Regular people: Wait, the King has easily stolen potatoes? How do I get in on this?

Internet users who have been stealing potatoes for years: We made a machine that picks so many potatoes and also that machine is free. Enjoy!

Fun fact! Both the music and the font in that ad were incorrectly sourced and did not provide compensation to the creators

the best death note joke format will forever be L asking light a simple question in which logical answer A might increase the likelihood of light being kira and logical answer B similarly might increase the likelihood of light being kira and after a short internal struggle light comes up with answer Y, which no human being has ever thought of as being a normal response in all of living history

speaking on chornobyl, the word chornobyl, lit. "black-weed", is one of ukrainian folk names for wormwood. there is a legend about wormwood, described in vasyl tovstyi's book "legends and myths of ukraine". in this legend, a girl got lost in the forest and fell into a cave with vipers, who didn't eat anything, but when they got hungry they licked a stone. so when the girl got hungry herself, she licked the serpent's stone too, and from now on she understood the language of herbs and beasts. and so she lived in the cave until spring, and when the spring came, it was time for the serpents to leave the underearth and into the human world, and so the cave opened and stairs appeared, and the girl could leave. but the serpent tsarytsia told her: "you now know the language of beasts and herbs, but never say the word "wormwood" (chornobyl), or you will forget all this in an instant". the girl was excited to return home and ran to her village, but then, a voice came from behind her, and asked: "what is this herb, with the leaves all black?" and the girl, lost in her longing for home, answered: "chornobyl". and so all her knowledge was lost. this is why, the legend says, chornobyl is also called "zabudka" or "zabudiok" (forget-weed).

i do need more "not platonic not romantic but a secret third thing" gracerocky fic where that, like. has actual on-page ramifications. like yes i can absolutely believe they go grace's full entire life without ever actually putting words to what they are, that makes sense that tracks that coheres. but, yknow. also. what if they did

what if a few months into the journey to erid, a few months of increasingly blurred lines and weird intimacies, grace finally makes himself Ask About Adrian. and what if rocky doesn't actually have a neat little polyamorous answer, because maybe eridians are mostly poly but what him & grace have going on does not in fact fit into any established eridian relationship types. just like it doesn't fit into any established human relationship types. they are now a culture of two!!! they aren't best friends they aren't dating they aren't eridian-queerplatonic none of those words are Enough. they want to crawl into each other's insides. grace has to look up that greek myth about being one person split into two cuz that is the closest pre-existing concept. they are uniquely singularly insane about each other. they have to invent new language.
