The Odyssey but retold as a low-stakes modern adventure of one guy out with his girlfriend leaving the bar with his buddies to do just one (1) simple thing real quick, it'll take like 15 minutes tops, he'll be right back, but then some bullshit happens and the trip keeps getting more complicated as more bullshit keeps happening while he just tries to get back to the bar because he promised his girlfriend that he'd get back and he knows that she's still there because she told him she'd wait there.

And by the time he finally gets back it's almost 3 am and the bar is about to close while she's sitting there stone cold sober, surrounded by 5 drunk guys unsuccessfully trying to convince her to give up on waiting for him and go home with one of them instead. And the guy shows up to proceed to beat the shit out of them before explaining himself to her like hey sorry bullshit kept happening, my phone fell into a storm drain and my wallet got stolen when I was trying to find someone who'd borrow me a phone so I could call and

His girlfriend had been fending off the 5 drunk guys for most of the evening by explaining that even if she was going to ditch her boyfriend, she can't possibly leave without finishing her beer, which she is keeping perpetually full via careful sleight of hand where she's just pouring it back and forth into and out of the pitcher.

However the drunk guys are also drinking, and eventually she can't afford to buy another pitcher for the table so she can't keep up the ever-full beer glass trick. At this point she has to resort to setting up the pool trick shot that she's never seen anyone but her boyfriend pull off, and says she'll leave with whoever manages the shot first.

That buys her another hour or so and then, finally, her boyfriend makes it back. He looks like shit, hair down and just a mess, he's wearing an entirely different jacket that he got from an alley, and barely recognizable—especially to 5 guys who've been drunk for hours now. He lurks for a minute, finds out what's going on, and proceeds to pull off the trick shot first try. Throws the jacket off, fixes his hair with a hair tie his girlfriend lends him, finally looks like himself again, and THEN beats the shit out of them with the pool cue.

had a dream i was driving in the pokemon universe and something suddenly darted across the road and i ended up hitting a goddamn suicune. legendary reflexes though because i pulled out a pokeball and threw it out my window before she could run. caught her. said aloud "damn i wonder how often this happens." decided to immediately bring suicune out of her pokeball to check stats and i guess she could talk just like entei in that movie because the first thing she says is "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME???"

Yet another new study debunked the basis for the anti-trans sports bans. It was never about sports but for creating legal avenues for exclusion and abjection. This is one of the largest analyses ever conducted, involving 52 studies and 6,485 trans people. Read the study here.

allhailthedumpsterfireReblogged werkwerkelizaaacopper-leafFollowHighlights from the Project Hail Mary director's commentary:*SPOILERS!!!*Grace waking up from the coma was the first shot they filmed for the movie! They wanted Ryan to feel eased into the character, and what better way to do that than have him play a character who can't remember who he is?The little "GOOD LUCK!" note in sharpie that's written on Grace's sleeping bag was canonically written by the other astronauts on the I.S.S. before the Hail Mary crew got put into the ship. In real life, Phil and Chris wrote one word each. They said it was like "a blessing on the movie."Ryan's most nerve-wracking day on set was when he had to shoot with the classroom full of children. Most of the kids were made up of the children of the film's crew members.The scene where Grace looks through Yao and Ilukhina's photos is footage of him looking at and reacting to actual pictures of the actors with their loved ones.When Grace calls Stratt to tell her that he and Carl figured out how to breed astrophage, Ryan is genuinely calling Sandra on her day off set, and her audio is her genuine reaction to the unexpected line: "Carl and I made a baby!""We like showcasing Ryland Grace's social anxiety while having a lot of people staring at him. LOL!"Their intention for the space funeral scene was to have Grace convey that he was trying to ease his own sadness by making the dead people with him feel better about being dead :( The markings on Rocky's body convey his mission patch, his rank in the crew, his wedding band, and his family crest.Grace and Stratt's conversation on the boat is Grace asking her if they're allowed to be close friends, and the response from Stratt is no, they can't. This gets driven home in the karaoke scene. She understands the value of connection, a part of her wants it, but "Her love for people has to be suspended for her to do her job."Rocky has different forward-facing faces for different thought processes! They named his "satellite dish" face, his "scrunched up thinking face", and his "monobrow face".Direct quote: "I love how on the spectrum Rocky is." ROCKY AUTISTIC CODED CONFIRMED!After Rocky recovers from his injuries: "As Rocky returns to the movie, the lights turn on. The warmth returns. It's like the day breaking."Confirmed that when Grace and Rocky reunite, Rocky says to Grace, "You came back for me, question?"They throw this out there for two seconds and do NOT expand on it, but according to Andy Weir, Stratt is imprisoned for life but somehow ESCAPES???The Eridians built Grace an artificial tree in his enclosure because Rocky knew he liked treesThere's so much more they shared about film processes and the people who were behind making certain effects possible. I highly recommend checking out the commentary if you're able!10267739

allhailthedumpsterfireRebloggedlesbian-from-next-door-tooFollowIf Project Hail Mary taught us anything it's that forced romance subplots have ruined movies. Too many stories about guys sacrificing themselves to save girls and not enough movies about guys sacrificing themselves to save their cool rock alien friend. 151,1154,597

allhailthedumpsterfireRebloggedspideredwebbingFollowThinking about the new TADC episode, and I want to note a detail I find interesting, specifically the Caine Callout Scene. More specifically than that, Ragatha and Gangle's contributions.ALTALTRagatha mentions that Caine never comforts anyone when they're upset or bothers to understand their points of view...both being complaints that could be easily levied towards her abusive and demanding mother, who never bothered to understand how Ragatha felt and constantly put her down and yelled at her, actively making her upset and refusing to comfort her.ALTALTMeanwhile, Gangle's complaint is that Caine discourages everyone from thinking outside the box and "doing things our own way", with her biggest gripe from outside the Circus being her artistic dreams being crushed and her being stuck working a fast food job just to get by...keeping her from thinking outside the box and doing what she truly wants to do.I find it fun how Pomni, Zooble, and Jax's complaints are all about Caine specifically doing things wrong that bug them, but Ragatha and Gangle seemed to genuinely get a bit personal there and bring up how Caine is actively reminding them of what they had to go through outside the Circus, and giving them a chance to finally stand up for themselves when they weren't able to do so in their past Macroversal lives.I love thematic cohesion.45714,069
