So I watched the movie

[shamebats]

"it's just stress" oh thank god, it's just the silent killer that slowly kills you, perfectly harmless, no need to worry

[dreadwife]

every day i wonder how that paper passed peer review and this is the only explanation i can come up with

[hayleywilliamsfan84]

i keep laughing at the way that eridian culture in the movie and eridian culture in the book are not contradictory at all, if you accept that movie rocky is just a total FREAK

grace: boy i sure can't wait to meet other eridians haha! rocky, putting on a shirt for the first time in four years: rocky has something to tell grace but does grace promise not to be mad, question?

don't go into the humanities because they're unprofitable and don't go into stem cuz its getting torn apart right now and don't go into buisness because it's competetive and speculative and don't go into education because it pays like shit. Just lay on thr ground. Just lay on the ground.

i think there is a statue of grace. on the campus of the university where he got his phd. it's a big base, like the statue atop it is going to be a larger than life hero standing brave. but instead it is him, life size, sitting with his feet dangling off the edge and turned slightly to the side like he is in conversation.

there is room to sit next to him. students like to hop up and sit next to dr. grace to get advice, vent, just take a minute. he's a friend to all on campus

Why is a school teacher in space, question? 🚀

rocky's crew dying from radiation exposure, something humans go to great lengths to prevent and are very scared of and ryland's crew dying in their "sleep" with nobody watching, something eridians go to great lengths to prevent and are very scared of. cool book that is easy to read through your tears.

Imagine aroace Ryland Grace who maybe has, maybe hasn’t fully come to accept himself as aroace, being told the “ you don’t even have a dog” line.

Being hit once again with the feeling that you’re “weird” or “strange” for not having a romantic connection and that it makes others view you as more expendable.

How isolating for someone who clearly loves Earth and his connection to humanity.

WHITSANTOS ROOMATES SAVEEE MEEEEEE

look at it in instagram !

The thing that hurts me the most in the book is that Ryland was kept conscious for MULTIPLE DAYS in a jail cell leading up to the launch but they still didn't pack him anything personal. Stratt could've called someone and had them pack a bag in an hour. They could've ferried him back to the states secretly to pack his own bag while under surveillance. But no, they kept him awake and aware that they were sentencing him to death and didn't even let him have any of his personal belongings.
