Stamets looks so worried, like he's trying to remember if he left the space oven on or not

Did I leave the gas on?

No, I'm a fucking squirrel!

Well fucking great. Now I have to watch Dress to Kill again.

It's her best work and you know it! Doesn't hurt that the year it came out I had a history class and wound up doing a report on Pol Pot as a result.

Your diary must look odd: “Get up in the morning, death, death, death, death, death, death, death – lunch- death, death, death -afternoon tea - death, death, death - quick shower…"

Not going to lie, forgot that Eddie came out as trans. Makes the gif even more succinct. Good for her.

That death line is pretty amazing. There's one line that I quote pretty frequently. My accent is a fucking disaster. It slips between a Newfie accent, a generic North American accent, and 'Queens English' for some fucking reason. When trying to explain the difference between the accents to people who are like "What stroke did you have?" I usually end up quoting Eddie. "Two countries seperated by a common language. You say aluminum we say aluminium, you say centrifugal we say centri-fugal, you say erbs and we say herbs because there's a fucking H in it".

Dunno why that was the quote that stuck in my head but it was.

I long for a grapefruit.

Bro, I know we haven't talked that much but have you not noticed yet that I am perpetually worried?

Oh you meant the character

Carry on

You're doing great. I'm proud of you.

That makes one of us

I mean, he kind of is.

It's not like he's the only one that can pilot the ship to/from deep space and isn't also a loose cannon. Or also the lead engineer. Or probably the only one qualified to fix and/or rebuild the spore drive should anything really bad happen to it. I mean, that would be insane to field a ship with a single point of failure for three critical roles - that would just be irresponsible.

Zero pressure job, really.
