Remember: Chemist Kary Mullis slammed Fauci in the 1990s: "Guys like Fauci get up there and start talking, you know, he doesn't know anything, really, about anything and I'd say that to his face. Nothing.... They've got a personal kind of agenda, they make up their own rules as they go, they change them when they want to and they smugly, like Tony Fauci, do not mind going on television in front of the people who pay his salary and lie directly into the camera." 🤔

↳ Day Six - Favourite Quotes

just thought about the parallels between nemik and kleya, injured in the back of the ship and cassian has to be the one to pilot it so there's nothing he can do to help his friend and fellow revolutionary, hurt and possibly dying, so close behind him. with nemik he asks "is he okay?" and all he can do is trust whatever vel tells him and fly to some secret outpost that can't save nemik, despite all he's done (and will do!) for the cause. as opposed to kleya, who's done EVERYTHING and cassian is adamant that she finds safety and rest in the place she helped build (!!!) and he tells melshi "make sure she stays awake" and he can take her somewhere safe and established and familiar to him and he knows she'll be cared for! he knows she'll be among friends! a luxury not afforded to nemik, but he helped pave the way towards that opportunity, as did kleya, a hundred times more so.

Sixth ending

obscura smell hcs because i can't sleep

oleander: see, i was going to say he wears that really strong type of cologne most men wear, and I DO THINK HE DOES but more accurately he has a colection of different colognes for different occasions

keir: nothing? i don't think he has a particular smell. he probably just smells like whatever place he just left like most people do idk

francesco: he smells really nice :) he also wears cologne but it's a softer(? kind of scent like vanilla or cinnamon, something like that

cirrus: i know this is inaccurate i feel it in my soul but when i look at him i can't help thinking he smells like hand sanitizer or detergent. to put it more sweetly, he smells like freshly washed sheets

oh I was going to show you this doily that I swear I completed, but forgot to take a photograph of the finished piece before sending it off, so here is an in-progress photo, and as a bonus to prove I did finish something, an odd little triangle that the pattern insists is a bookmark but I'm not convinced.

thirty-two eggs! Wow, I don't know ANYTHING about tatting, so I'm extra-impressed! It looks like delicate chains of proteins or some molecular mystery, where if you pondered it for long enough you'd have dreams that lead you to, like, invent the polymerase chain reaction.

Nobel Laureate in Chemistry Kary Mullis (inventor of the PCR test) slams Fauci in the 1990s.🤔

Guys I drew Karis

[goldenshrikecomic]

I wish that Kari Grandi, kaikkien janoisten sankari, saves Eve from (alleged) dehydration

I'll rewrite the story so this can be the end scene. Kari Grandi... thank you for the juice.

Can't stop returning to Katniss thinking "All I was trying to do was keep myself and Peeta alive. Any act of rebellion was purely incidental."

Because incidental actions are a large part of what rebellions are made of; often people don't mean for their actions to directly challenge authority, it's just that said authority is incompatible with life. Humans were not meant to be controlled. We are free-willed creatures, just like other animals. But authority seeks to control. It objectifies. What better example of this than the Hunger Games? The Capitol kills 23 children each year to flaunt their control. The Games are treated like prime time TV, and the tributes' humanity is stripped from them in order to become objects of entertainment among the highest echelons of society.

Consequently, to act in the interest of keeping yourself and others alive is to act in opposition to authority, no matter how innocent your intentions. And it's very easy for people to challenge authority simply by trying to live their lives; it's only natural for them to try and keep themselves and their loved ones alive. To quote Nemik's manifesto from the show Andor:

"Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward."

There are so many of these small acts of insurrection just in the first book. Peeta giving Katniss that bread, despite getting a beating for burning it. Katniss and Gale hunting to keep their families alive and bartering with the other people in District 12. Arguably, Katniss volunteering in place of Prim. Katniss and Peeta appearing as one unit during even the first ceremony, where they hold hands on the chariot. Cinna's designs for her outfits, especially the "girlish" dress he puts her in after the games. Katniss allying with Rue, and the flower crown that she gives her after death.

These seemingly small acts build solidarity with others. This is shown in several reciprocal, more innocuous (yet still rebellious) acts. Madge gives Katniss the Mockingjay pin. District 12 gives that three-finger sign of respect to Katniss instead of applauding like they are told. Peeta's father and Gale promise to make sure that Prim doesn't go hungry. District 11 sends Katniss bread and Thresh spares her once, because they want to honor how she treated Rue.

In a world that attempts to dehumanize and objectify you, it is rebellious to recognize the humanity in yourself and others. It is rebellious to help others, to make their lives easier, to hope, to care.
