While trying to get more context for a footnote, I stumbled upon an even more delightful tidbit, which is that a scientist in the 1960s decided to try to make a substance for spaceflights that could function either as building material or emergency rations. The mixture included powdered milk, cornstarch, flour, banana flakes, and hominy grits and was baked in a hydraulic press under 3000 pounds of pressure. It could be cut and drilled and was harder than Masonite. If you soaked it for several hours allegedly it tasted like breakfast cereal. To the shock of no one, this did not pan out. However I demand a scifi show where a crew gets stranded and immediately starts eating the furniture.
being aromantic is like. hey btw you're going to live a life that is the culmination of most of society's worst nightmares. sorry lol ✌️ but then you turn around and take a really good hard look at it and it turns out that living in that nightmare is fucking awesome and you get to wake up every day and take that fear that other people have and laugh and hold it close until it's a great joy for you instead. and being happy is a radical act that you define instead of someone else. and you're sexy as fuck that's just a fact of life i don't make the rules on that one
“I killed wizard’s filth like you all my life, I killed them with guns, and bombs, and knives, and gas, and when I didn’t have any of those I just got in real close and put my thumbs through their fucking eyes. You can flick that little skewer around all you like, boy. I’ll choke you with it.”

Clapping and cheering that the lunar lander carrying human remains is experiencing an "anomaly". Navajo Nation said hey we're not super comfortable with dumping dead people on the moon and the sun said I got you

Definitely not thinking about codebreakers parallels with their children.
Not thinking about Philza, the de facto leader/father-figure of every group he's in.
Not thinking about Chayanne, who is the oldest brother and who the other eggs seem to follow without question.
Not thinking about Etoiles, the beast, the hero, the universally acknowledged "strongest warrior of the island."
Very much thinking about Pomme, who everyone seems to assume is soft and gentle and the fact that she is, but she's also the daughter of a beast who loved her so much that he taught her how to be a beast too.
Not thinking about Chayanne leading the pack and Pomme guarding their backs. How, even if we didn't see them interact all that much, Chayanne and Pomme resemble their parents to the point of trusting each other with the lives of all their siblings and their own.
