// I love being a pretty lucid dreamer because when I start getting massive anxiety because I was in a weird unfamiliar water park/zoo/something akin to a best buy and I can't find my work phone and I was just sprayed by water anyway so if I even had my phone it would probably be ruined anyway (I've been having some phone issues that last few months that recently got resolved) I can just, in the blink of an eye think 'oh, right. This is a dream. My phone is totally fine, I don't need to work through any lingering anxiety this way. It's all okay.' and then go about doing funner things in my dream like explore this wild water park with a wave pool that looks like it would launch any child of any size right to the moon. Or adult, probably. That's a lot more interesting than panicking about my work phone being lost or damaged.

Also a possibility for them to develop skin...
//oh...you ruined it....but also I am not a marshmallow fan so maybe you are still in the best timeline. Peace be with you and your smorz.

Astronauts are so funny man. Here's just a couple of things I've found hilarious from this past week of space stuff:
It's probably already been spread around here enough already, but in case anyone's missed it; 7 hours after launch, commander Reid Wiseman, dealing with tech issues, uttered the generational quote "I have two Microsoft Outlooks and neither one of those are working."
After fixing the issues that were afflicting the onboard toilet, mission specialist Christina Koch (who has quickly become my favourite of the four) laughingly said “I’m the space plumber, I’m proud to call myself the space plumber.”
On Easter Sunday, the Artemis II crew hosted a makeshift egg hunt, by hiding packets of dehydrated scrambled eggs around their Orion capsule.
The way the crew always makes sure to make it very clear they're in space when doing interviews. From stuff like Wiseman just hanging out floating sideways on screen or Koch letting her hair loose so it can freely span out flowing around her.
While in transit, the crew decided to record a parody of those bad 80s sitcom intros where everyone turns and smiles at the camera.
When the crew reached the furthest point from Earth in the mission, they jokingly clambored over each other in an effort to get to the far side of the capsule, so that they could individually claim to be the furthest person from earth.
At the same time, on the ISS which was at the time on the other side of earth, the 7 astronauts onboard had a light-hearted race to the far side of the station, making jokes about being the furthest humans from Artemis.
On the way back to earth, NASA actually managed to establish an audio call between the crews of the ISS and Artemis II (where they shared the above info), and Koch called one member of the ISS crew, Jessica Meir, her "astro-sister" as the two of them previously spacewalker together in 2019. Meir then responded I'm so happy that we are back in space together, even if we are a few miles apart" (a few here being 230,000).
While Jeremy Hansen was doing an interview, Wiseman and Koch were just in the background swatting the mission mascot (a little moon plush toy named Rise) back and forth between each other.
I'm so normal about this movie that I did this in 3 days with a total of 10 hours of sleep. If you know this song you know it s time to bring out the tissues.

ok I know I seem insane for watching project hail mary for the fourth time in 10 days but I got to watch it with the directors commentary tonight and it’s incredible how much thought and love went into this film by EVERYONE. the directors, ryan gosling himself, the sound department, costumes, set production, cameras. everyone has so much pride and the story is so beloved by all. anyway here are some of my favorite things from the commentary
no one knew how to pronounce eridani (air-id-ah-ni or air-re-deni) so they just literally never said it in the film
the “good luck” at the beginning is supposed to have been written by the astronauts on the ISS who delivered ryland to the hail mary
the mop ryland was dancing with was called moppy ringwald
when ryland calls stratt after successfully breeding astrophage and he says “carl and I made a baby,” that was ryan gosling calling sandra hüller on her day off and she had no idea that’s what he was going to say. that “what” was her genuine first reaction
the scientist whom ryland called a stagnating waste of carbon was the bearded guy sitting next to him and stratt in the initial phm meeting
the idea of the soundtrack being so hopeful was supposed to be like there were two different planets cheering him on
when ryland is sitting on the beach in that don’t-go-crazy room and sees a figure walking towards him, that’s him on erid at the end. he’s seeing himself
among the markings on rocky were the petrova line mission patch, his rank, family crest, and wedding band
rocky always stamped his claw on the ground twice for a question
they wanted to make it so that eridani could have different tones. so it could be a given series of keys for one word and then you could change the frequencies for happy, sad, scared, etc.
after rocky wakes up and asks ryland if they caught the taumeoba and ryland shakes his head no and then yes, the directors went “what an odd thing to do”
ryan gosling wrapped all the gifts that ryland gave to rocky himself
the entire reason that exchange panel was put on rocky’s ball was so that ryland could pass him the little beanie earth
the movie starts with an upside down shot of ryland waking up. the epilogue starts with a right-side up shot of ryland waking up. he also makes his bed and brushes his teeth to show how time has passed LOL
their headcanon for explaining the rocky nature of the beach is that the eridians tried to emulate sand but got the scale of the grains wrong
rocky had them create a beach, and wave machine for the beach, and a tree for ryland so that he felt closer to home, but rocky was all he needed for that

Rumi, checking her emails: Bills, fanmail, bills, stupid ad deals, something that probably should have gone to Bobby, fanmail... oh huh. Someone is asking if they can make a parody of one or more of our songs.
Mira: People already do that, don't they? We encourage it.
Rumi: Yeah, but this guy's asking anyway.
Mira: Huh. That's considerate of them. Who is it?
Rumi: Some parody artist named Alfred Yankovic.
Mira: Oh, I think I've heard of him, isn't he kind of a big deal in the states-
Zoey, kicking open the door: YES YES YES TELL HIM YES A THOUSAND TIMES YES A MILLION TIMES YES LET HIM DO WHATEVER HE WANTS WITH OUR MUSIC
Mira: Definitely a big deal.
Zoey: ASK HIM IF HE'S DOING A POLKA MEDLEY PLEASE I NEED TO HEAR GOLDEN ON THE ACCORDION THIS IS A DREAM COME TRUE OH MY GOSH DO YOU THINK HE'LL LET ME CAMEO IN THE MUSIC VIDEO-
Rumi: So... we tell him yes?
Mira: We tell him yes.
Zoey: EEEEEEEEEEE WEIRD AL KNOWS WHO I AM THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE
weird al would absolutely let zoey cameo in the music video and the honmoon would be strengthened for probably another generation

was talking with someone in the process of reading animorphs (@nexuschampion but finish it first!) and i realized it stung hearing ax call jake his prince after finishing the series. it really clicked how ax calling jake his prince shifts over time
at first its kind of a joke, weird alien being a weird alien, how funny. but every time he does that he's re-enforcing that jake is their leader. the animorphs wanted to hand leadership over to ax, since he was the most knowledgeable about aliens and combat strategies, but he refused. he argued that jake should stay their leader, since ax knew nothing about human society and they were already getting used to taking orders from him. he puts jake in the position of power, and enforces that decision every time he calls him "prince". even when it come into contention, ax never calls anyone else his prince, just jake. and as time goes on jake starts to realize what exactly that entails. he's ax's commander, ax will do pretty much anything he tells him to. but he doesn't let that go to his head. just because he knows ax will do it if he says to, he doesn't want to use that power, doesn't want ax to do things just because he tells him to. because they're not just brothers-in-arms, they're friends. and friends wouldn't force friends to do something they don't want to or disagree with. and he sticks with that for most of the series. he accepts that he is ax's prince, even if after all this time he still doesn't think he should be. it becomes a bit of a joke among the animorphs. jake isn't the elected leader of the animorphs, he's their (alien member's) prince
ax shakes things up by "going rouge" with the bomb. he didn't disobey am order from his prince, he just never allowed his prince to give him am order in the first place. like when marco said jake was too close to the problem of potentially losing his dad to make logical decisions about it, or when jake said marco was too close to the problem of visser one being his mom to make logical decisions about it, ax decided jake was too close to the problem of his city being in peril to think logically about it. and he hated it. he's just an aristh, he should not be making big decisions in place of his prince. in his defense, it was a decision that jake probably wouldn't have handled well at that point, he hadn't steeled himself quite enough for that yet, so ax took matters into his own hands, away from his prince who he is sworn to obey. he acted as if jake was not his prince, which seems to have led to him obeying jake even more afterwards, to make up for it just a little bit. for his own sake, mostly, but it was pretty clear that it hurt jake too. he couldn't trust ax's claims that he was his prince now. that he would obey him when things got tough. the title of prince became the thing in contention. jake is now the undisputed leader of the animorphs, they've all admitted it. he tried to quit, the others tried to replace him, but in the end jake was still their leader. and they're in too deep to even think about changing it now. but if ax disobeys him, is jake really ax's prince?
ax does his best to convince everyone, himself included, that yes, jake is his prince. and it works. he obeys, doesn't talk back, only giving advice as requested or needed. he obeys all the way onto the yeerk pool ship. jake is a better leader at that point, a proper general whose goal i to win using anything and everything at his disposal. and as ax's prince, ax's very life is at his disposal (all of the animorph's are). when jake says "I am your prince", he means it. he's not ax's friend in that moment. he's ax's prince, giving him an order. taking the power ax has aways given him, using it against ax to get him to do something he doesn't want to. and ax cant disobey, because he's the one whose been calling jake his prince all this time, and he's already disobeyed once. ax has always given jake this power over him, it's just that jake never saw it necessary to use it, and so ax never had to make the decision to obey or not. and in that moment, it doesn't feel like ax has much of a choice
and afterwards, they don't talk much. ax goes off to become the ambassador of their species and jake basically becomes a recluse. they don't talk much, if at all, and so never talk about what happened. if ax still considers jake his prince, or if he's moved on. if they still consider each other friends, even. or if they're just veterans of the same war, the same little resistance, and being around each other would just bring up sour memories. and if ax can't be freed of the one, they never get to have that reconciliation. and even if he can, they're already in a war again, and they presumably would fall back into the dynamic of jake being ax's prince, despite all the baggage that the title now holds

I WAS RIGHT ABOUT THAT ONE MOMENT!!
I am so smart I caught on to a very obvious foreshadowing moment in a young children's book, wow. So cool.
