i just don’t get it. i’m over here checking 14 times to make sure i don’t refer to the recipient wrong in any manor and these people are just like “yeah i’ll call you a nickname i don’t have permission to call you /and/ decide how to spell it” (i used to be Quinn. never Quin.

what’s your favorite little detail from #ProjectHailMary? for me it’s the orbital sunrise, a phenomenon first depicted by Russian cosmonaut Alexei Leonov with colored pencils he smuggled into space this story really is a love letter to humanity
a still from Project Hail Mary depicting an orbital sunrise, a phenomenon seen from space as the sun rises creating an orange white and blue glow as the sun illuminates the atmosphere the first drawing from space and the smuggled colored pencils it was drawn with. it depicts the orbital sunrise

how much would you have to be paid to eat a spider? - it’s edible meaning you’re not ingesting toxins - it’s approximately the size of a quarter - you can prepare it however you like but must be consumed in its entirety in one spoonful

I agree w/ frustration they need to be bolder and say directly he must be removed. But this isn't nothing. It is still unprecedented in American history, the opposition party directly insisting POTUS is literally insane. That's not trivial, this is real escalating constitutional crisis territory.

get yourself a good group chat
me (uncle kitten): i think historical fiction tells fictional stories in a historical setting and historical fan fiction tells historical stories with fictional aspects? but that’s an entirely vibes based definition
like a story about pete who lived next door to george washington is historical fiction. but the story of pete who was george washington’s first gay lover is absolutely historical fan fiction
paige (potato dunker): That first is really what makes it fan fiction 
me: gotta leave room for that second gay lover

facebook community group screenshot with a picture of a Nothing Bundt Cakes brand box with a gift message that reads “hope you have a super speedy recovery! we love you! love your aunties”
post reads “Have you been looking for this? I don’t think it’s meant for me because a) I no longer have any aunties, b) I wasn’t aware I was ill. I should also point out that I’ve been away for over two weeks, so you might need another super speedy recovery if you eat the contents.”

chat, is it a crime punishable by death to change the start time for work less than 9 hours before said start time??? and should i just show up at the original start time because it’s against union contract to change it by more than 20 minutes with less than 48 hours heads up?

valid but, and i hate to say it but Big Sneezers may be onto something: the vibrations of a vocalization really do help to dislodge that tickling. i’ll sneeze quietly like three times in a row and the fourth i’ll do Big Sneeze and the sneezing stops

Quintin @quintingell.dftba.social · 18/03/2026
my actual theory about the “sneezing is never normal” dr is that they don’t actually sneeze and other people sneezing really pissed them off so they became an allergist to stop it from happening #dearhankandjohn
