Project Hail Mary (Andy Weir)
"the book is about alien microbes extinguishing the sun by siphoning off its light energy to fuel their own metabolism. the book follows the amnesiac protagonist, sent far off into the depths of space to the origin of said microbes to save the world before everything gets too dark and too cold. basically, the sun is dying."
No Power (Todd Kirby)
"A blackout. A bloodthirsty beast. The Bronx. This is not how Tom pictured his 17th birthday… His plan was far more bleak. When Manhattanite Tom Walton wakes up from a suicide attempt, he finds himself in a Bronx hospital being attacked by an ancient, savage creature that thrives in the darkness of a summer blackout. Tom, the son of a rich and racist New York politician, teams up with his fellow patients — a diverse group of Bronx natives — in an attempt to fight back. As Tom falls helplessly in love with Kiki, a badass teenage patient, he gains a deeper understanding of the source of his pain and reconsiders his stance on life. But when Tom’s true identity is revealed to the crew, he must work to unify the group and escape the hospital… or be eaten alive."
My dog and I are currently without power at our house, and we she needs your help!
It would the world to us if you can lend a hand. My beloved baby girl is feeling the southern heat, and as a husky, she does not like that. I'm also melting over here, but that's neither here nor there. So please. If you have any spare cash or can reblog this, that would be great. Gwen and I would be forever thankful.
Also, people with ocs, if you show me proof of donation and a character reference, I'll be happy to sketch a doodle of appreciation as an added thanks.
Now. Here's some older pictures of my goober to see what I'm fighting for aside from having electricity, of course.
(Mod here. So this is in case any asks are sent in just keep in mind that I currently don't have power so my wifi is out. The transformer outside my house blew and so I don't have power. So I won'tbe able to post responses. I'm currently trying to charge my phone with my laptop so that's how I'm posting this. Anyways take care. - Mod)
Well my powers out! My landlord is mad at me because so is the power in her office lol literally went “I'm pissed at you” over the phone like a child wtf.
She had the nerve to whine that she has work today, ummm excuse me, I LIVE HERE. I don't wanna hear your complaing about your office when I have no power in my HOME!
Another hot night with no power... It got out at 0 am and still doesn't come. I am at work feeling like a zombie because I couldn't sleep any single minute in all the night 😭😭😭
When there’s a hurricane outside and you’re stuck with no power so you write fanfic about your version of the turtles and draw for the whole afternoon sipping tea and chilling with your sisters. :)
Stay safe for anyone who’s also being hit by the hurricane today!!
Got lots of photos documenting the whole post-cyclone experience. Here was a highlight:
Nice Hawke's Bay merlot by solar lamp, and it's paired dinner of that night: cold rissoles and cheesy spaghetti from a can 💪 we do miss our hot food. I miss my awesome daily sandwiches with all the works, but have had to bin tonnes of beetroot as it went moldy in the fridge 😢
Nothing like a nice wine to drown your cyclone sorrows
