(In case it's not obvious to everybody, this is an edit; "they pay me in woims" is the punchline from a different Nancy comic. The original punchline to this one is also funny:)

[the-real-seebs]

that makes a lot more sense

but the edit is a solid comic

shout out to project hail mary for being a platonic romantic movie. like. Like. every other scene with eva or rocky harks deeply on romantic tropes. rocky and grace pressing their faces together through the xenonite. grace going to find eva on the deck of the ship, being the only one who looked for her. the dance between the blip-a and the hail mary when they first connect tunnels. eva telling grace she believes in him like a prayer. rocky being bossy and impassioned and grace being exasperated but also adoring it. the entire karaoke scene, the cuts to graces smile while she sings. rocky screaming at grace to Get The Fuck Inside during the taumeoba mission. and its a lovestory abt platonic love. at no point does the movie imply either of these relationships should be or are romantic. but they are love stories. Lowers my body into the marsh.

the only reliable, effective way of "protecting children" is education. but people don't want to hear that because they don't actually care about protecting children, they care about protecting a mythologised ideal of innocence

Image text: A post by Gary K. Wolf:

l've had to unfriend a few fans lately, all for the same reason. They made ridiculing, unkind, and in some cases outright cruel comments about pictures I posted of young women cosplaying Jessica.

More than a person, Jessica is a state of mind. To play Jessica, you need self-confidence, a sense of humor, and a Jessican "attitude". There is no such thing as a Jessica cosplayer being too short, too flat chested, too heavy, too thin, too unattractive, too black, too Asian, or even too male!!! All Jessica, any Jessica, every Jessica is good Jessica.

I'm not giving any warnings or second chances. A single disparaging comment on a Jessica cosplayer, and I'm throwing you out of the rainbow colored Toontown Tent.

as much as it's AMAZING to have so much love and support for Stratt, I think the "she did nothing wrong" narrative is counterproductive

The whole reason it's such a big deal that she is so supported by the fandom is because she is a strong female character that does not act in a stereotypically feminine manner, and she isn't getting backlash for it. The fandom, rather than calling her a heartless bitch, is being sympathetic and understanding her point of view.

She did do things that most people would consider morally wrong. Moreso in the book than the movie but she did absolutely do wrong.

As one example: paving over the Sahara -and thus disrupting weather patterns and habitats globally- had massive negative consequences.

and that's the point. She's not supposed to be innocent and perfectly morally good. She operates in purely logical manner to give Project Hail Mary it's best Chance at success, which immediately lands her in morally grey territory. The long term survival of Earth was the number one priority at all times. Minimizing risk where possible is always ideal to ensure humanity had the best chances down the line, but she was willing to do what needed to be done.

If she let ethics and morality dictate her choices Earth would have died.

If you take nothing else away from this rambling I want that much to be remembered.

This doesn't mean she doesn't feel remorse. She does, the movie and the book convey it differently but they do both show it. She just manages to push it aside until after all is said and done.

I also feel like I have to specify that remorse and regret are different. She does not regret sending Grace on the mission against his will, she does not regret nuking Antarctica, she doesn't regret paving over The Sahara, she does not regret any of the hard calls she made as they are the reason there is still a planet to be saved by the time the Taumoeba reaches it. She would do it all again in a heartbeat. But she does absolutely feel remorse over the way certain things ended up having to play out.

I will defend Eva Stratt with my whole chest, not because she is innocent, but because she was justified.

please wear sunscreen!!! I've seen "fuck the beauty industrial complex" posts about complicated skincare regimens and am 100% with them except sometimes they mention sunscreen and no. no. absolutely not. sunscreen is a wonderful supportive friend who wants to keep you safe, and you should let her do it. throw out all your other cosmetics and skincare products if you want, but keep your sunscreen. and if you're not wearing sunscreen, start wearing it!!!! this is not about terror of aging, this is not about every tiny imperfection our fucked-up culture has made you feel insecure about, this is about protecting yourself from skin cancer. wear the damn sunscreen.
