local woman who claimed she will "cross that bridge when she comes to it" arrives at said bridge
reports are coming in that she is now burning said bridge
latest updates say that the bridge is on fire but she still has yet to cross it

I love the little smiley face he drew on the helmet of the eva suit diagram his party hat is made out of

BAD NEWS: it will not be the same forever
GOOD NEWS: it will not be the same forever

In case anyone hasn't heard, the cyclospora outbreak affecting tons of people in the US right now is coming from Taylor Farms produce. Best to stay away from bagged lettuce and prepared salads completely right now, but especially the ones mentioned in the screenshot:
Taylor Farms Earthbound Farms Little Salad Bar (Aldi) Marketside (Walmart) Kroger House Brand Target private label greens Costco salads and greens etc Trader Joe's chopped salad kits and fresh produce Fast food: McDonalds, Taco Bell, (Yum! Brands), Chipotle, Subway, Pizza Hut, KFC, Olive Garden, Top Golf, Red Lobster, Burger King, etc.
This is not the first time I've heard about a Taylor Farms foodborne illness outbreak. I stopped eating their salads after reading a description of the conditions in their facilities. Doesn't sound like they've improved anything.
We need a fully funded and staffed FDA, and regulations with teeth - and that's exactly what we don't have under Trump. To make things worse, the CDC is no longer tracking these outbreaks. We're on our own.
Bloopers are movie aftercare and it’s fucked up that we got rid of them
if they're gonna remake The Princess Bride, it should open with a kid sick in bed scrolling on his phone. his grandpa arrives with a gift--it's a DVD player with a disc already inside. grandpa hooks it up to the TV and presses play. and we all just watch the original 1987 film again.
Eva Stratt aka the softest girl you've ever seen PROJECT HAIL MARY (2026)
Image description: six gifs of Eva Stratt from Project Hail Mary.
Gif 1: Thank you for your help. I'm glad you didn't die.
Gif 2: Can you take a compliment please? It's an order, okay?
Gif 3: [Did you get your free hat?] Yeah, I kinda-bought them.
GIf 4: [That's lava.] It's not.
Gif 5: [It took like, 200 years to figure out how bacteria works.] Please do it faster.
Gif 6: Which is why you know live on a boat in the middle of the ocean in case boom!
Imagine for a second that you're an interstellar microorganism. I'm not doing that.

[Image description: a gifset of Carl and Grace talking to each other over a walkie.
Text:
Grace: Hey Carl, do we have an expense account?
Carl: We don't.
Grace: *dissapointed molecular biologist sigh*
Carl: But I do.
Grace looks up and Carl smiles at him.

[Image description: Grace sits on a beach with his arms wrapped around his tucked knees, slightly facing the viewer. His head tilts up in profile as a red con trail/petrova line passes in front of his neck. From his shoulders hang the hope quilt, splayed around him like a cape. Above the quilt, the beach transforms in to the blackness of space. The sun sits behind Grace's head like a saint's halo in medieval and renaissance paintings. The petrova line passing over Grace's neck connects with the sun in the background. End description].
Go! Rocky, Go!

Rocky bustin' it down in Dance Dance Revolution. Grace is watching flabberghasted.
Basically how Grace started teaching in my fic When Life Gives You Lemon Seeds:
Eridian Scientists: Grace needs enrichment. He'll be trapped in a small room while we finish his main biodome…. What if he goes insane? Grace, seeing a pebble one of the scientists brought with them to work, overwhelmed with cuteness aggression: Oh my god 😭😭😭 Eridian Scientists: ... We can work with this. Tomorrow is now bring your pebble to work day. We need to make pebble-sized xenonite balls, stat!!
Saw this twitter post and instantly started looking for pictures of Stratt to use it with
[Image description: Eva Stratt sitting at the head of a conference table. A screen shot of a tweet is pasted next to her. Text: terrible time to have a history degree and pattern recognition skills. End description].
[Image description: a digital doodle of an orange circle and a blue/green triangle with legs to represent Rocky and Adrian from Project Hail Mary. Text: All the budget went into hiring Ryan Gosling... End description].
y'all I'm so certain the biodome is about a kilometer/0.62 miles in diameter (they filmed on location at Durdle Door, so I'm pretty sure that cliff thing with the mini arch at the other end of the beach is supposed to be Bat's Head). assuming the ocean takes up half the area Grace has almost a hundred fucking acres of space to run around in. For context, Biosphere 2 a 3.14 acre surface area and only a fraction of that was used for human habitation
like imagine you're Ryland Grace and for the past 4ish years you've been living in a tin can with only the vague conception of a slightly larger tin can as your future home, and then after like, idk a couple months, maybe an earth year, your best friend in the universe pulls up like "grace home is ready, statement" and internally you're like "OK cool time to go see my next set of walls I'll be staring at for the rest of my life" and you get there and he made you two hundred acres (and half of that is actually navigable by you) of a biome that's not just your favorite, but he picked it because the first thing you told him about it is that it's always changing
We need to let eridians have more fucked up, physics-defying noble gas solids.
They use helium as a type of styrofoam to help transport delicate objects. Obviously solid helium is much heavier than regular helium but it still only takes a light gust of wind to blow away an empty box, which can be annoying.*
*thanks to alienspacepunk for reminding me of buoyancy laws
Household supplies are commonly made from argon alloys because it's less expensive than steel or, godforbid, xenonite (and no one actually needs near indestructable dust pans even though it would be cool).
Neon is commonly used in arts and crafts because 473K hot eridian hands can easily mould it into different shapes. Grace is fucking delighted when he finds out that they have in glow in the dark play-doh.
"what is this BABY doing in space!???"
-Rocky, probably
Image Description (copied from alt id)
Grace looking into a poorly drawn microscope, a yellow text bubble is under it "Y'know, I wasn't even born yet when you set off for your mission. isn't that crazy?.... Rocky?", a poorly drawn Rocky is next to him.
A closer image of the poorly drawn Rocky, with a yellow text bubble next to it: "... Rocky?"
a much more detailed and much closer drawing of Rocky, with the words "Grace say sike right fucking now" in front of him
Rocky seeing Grace in the tunnel for the first time: Oh god ok this is probably an important greeting ritual for these aliens. I’m sure all these movements have deep significance to their culture…
Ryland Grace, panicking, zero coherent thoughts in his brain: Maybe the rock spider will like dancing the salsa???
