Information

Rewatching and realized that during Sign of the Times, we all hear her singing the lyrics and contextualize it with the knowledge that Grace is sent to space. Just stop your crying, have the time of your life; we can meet again somewhere, somewhere far away from here. But while I'm sure Eva knows in the back of her mind that Grace could be sent to space, it's a far off enough possibility that she wouldn't be thinking about it. If we really want to hear it as *her* in that moment, I think she was thinking more about her being sent to prison for the rest of her life after launch and Grace going on without her. Remember everything will be alright. We can meet again somewhere. Somewhere far away from here.

Hail Mary: Grace by Inches

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a mission he doesn't remember volunteering for. Alone on a ship scaled far too large for a borrower, he has to try to figure out why he's so far from home, and what he's supposed to do. On top of that, he needs to figure out why this mission is so prepared to have a borrower on the crew--standing at only six inches tall, it's easy to think none of this was meant for him. And yet, everywhere he looks he finds evidence that whoever built this ship built it with both humans and borrowers in mind. An impossible task looms over him. A scientific mystery has somehow sent him hurtling through space, impossibly far from any other human or borrower, and it's on him to surpass an extinction-level threat that doesn't care how big someone is. It will end the world all the same if he doesn't do something about it. But, despite what he thinks, he's not alone.

back up to 90 pounds for my deadlifts. I couldn't do nuthin' after surgery and then my coach got a new job and I am bad at working out on my own, so I got laaaazy. I could probably actually jump to 100 and it would be fine. I'm not reaaaally having to pause during the set, just between sets, so upping the weight is probably appropriate. I think my goal will be to deadlift my own weight someday, through some combo of losing some pudge and gaining some muscle. But 100 pounds puts me halfway there!

thick thighs save lives i guess!

"I'm lying to you but this sentence is technically the truth without context" is such a good trope. Like yes the way that I am spinning these words forms a lie but if you squint I'm actually not lying.

"This morning, we posted NBC anchor Mary Carillo's 2004 rant about badminton because we had never seen it before and we wanted to share it with the world. Carillo just wrote an email to us, explaining how that monologue made it on the air:

"Can't believe that thing's still around. I was hosting a morning show in Athens that covered a lot of badminton—some table tennis too, but badminton, I'd been assured, was going to be "the curling of the Summer Games." (!) There was no script for that rant—just a little dead time—but it got some chuckles and a head shake from my producer. It was a pretty loose show—I'd already explained a team handball's size by comparing it against various members of the melon family, and when I found out that equestrian horses were listed as "equipment" I did a rant on the fact that horses needed passports to get into the country and dramatically produced one, so surely they needed an identity upgrade..

"That sort of nonsense got me a hosting gig on Torino's Olympic Ice show, which is still one of my all-time favorite scams. Don't know if it's still kicking around, but maybe my salute to Guido The Zamboni Guy is still out there from that wackadoodle show..

"Don't know how I stay employed,carillo

Mary Carillo is cool as hell. Also, someone please bring us her salute to Guido the Zamboni Guy.

Congrats DLS, that's an objectively insane way to describe your protagonist on the opening page of book 1

A HANDY CHART FOR THOSE OF YOU WONDERING WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THESE. NOTE THAT THESE ARE ALL THE INFORMAL AND YOU IS THE FORMAL SO LIKE YOU WOULD ALWAYS ADDRESS YOUR SUPERIOR/ OLDER PERSON/ SOCIAL BETTER WITH YOU BUT WITH YOUR BUDS YOU CAN USE THESE.

bulkhummus

here are MY reasons why i know in my heart and soul ryland grace wears his glasses like that - as somebody who also wears glasses all stupid and dumb due to learned behavior from their mother and habit (knowledge of ryan gosling being a goof aside)

grace is farsighted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he only needs glasses in order to do close up work y'all hes always looking over the edge of em like at students in back of class or across the leisure deck on the ship at eva singing, and when they're on they enlarge his eyes bc they're convex lenses

the pads of the glasses get caught in your hair if you push them up on your head like a majority of glasses users do so you. dont do that. you don't because it hurts to yank em out and also you break the nose pads of your glasses.

sensory issues. brother sometimes the weight of my glasses on my nose and cheeks physically IRKS me. like the equivalent of lowering the radio to see better when driving type of sensory issues when I get annoyed /overwhelmed those puppies have to come off.

if he took them off fully he'd lose them. adhd or whatever aside, hes moving a mile a minute. but bulk why doesn't he just put them on his shirt? the man who wears collared shirts and ties to work ?? he cant put them on the collar of his shirt so the habit evolved. to. well this

he saw a student do it one (1) time and so he started doing it to match their vibe and then the habit stuck. be careful teachers it happens more than you think.
