caught the tail end of a radio commercial for a regional aquarium and it said “do it for the gelatinous zooplankton” and that’s who we’re living for today friends
thinking about how infinitely big the universe is doesn't actually make me feel insignificant it just makes me think the beautiful night sky is that much cooler

For the fic ask game, I have a couple of fics you could choose from if you wanted to try something! 59. Forced to lie about something with Nicholas would be interesting (since he hates lying) or 60. Forced to tell the truth with Nathaniel (since he hates vulnerability). I also like 16. Where the twins from the past see their future selves.
Feel free to do any or none of these. Have a great day!

Catching stars 🐸✨ by reddituser54322
[ID: photo of an embroidery hoop with embroidery of a frog hanging onto a silver crescent moon. The frog’s tongue is stretched out to catch a star a little ways off. The moon is styled to look like a face, with one eye closed and a nose and mouth in profile. Other stars and clouds fill the sky around the moon. The sky is painted dark blue and the frog is painted two shades of green. End ID]
The use of difficulty ratings (easy/medium/hard) rather than levels of firmness (soft/firm/hard) to describe egg yolk viscosity implies the existence of higher difficulties such as "eggs over-legendary" and perhaps even "eggs over-nightmare"

HEY CALIFORNIA PEOPLE!
HURRICANE ADVICE FROM A FLORIDIAN!
Make sure you've got shelf-stable food and water for everyone in the house, including pets. The rule of thumb is a gallon per person per day. Freeze water bottles if you want cold water.
Make sure you have enough meds!
Make sure you have batteries, candles, flashlights, and a manual can opener.
Make sure your electronics, including backup batteries, are charged. Unplug things you don't want fried in case of a power surge.
Don't tape your windows, it doesn't help and you'll just be stuck scrubbing goo off of them later.
Put a mug of frozen water in it in your freezer with a quarter on top of it. If your freezer defrosts, the ice will melt and the quarter will sink and tell you you need to throw things out.
Get everything that's not nailed to a foundation out of your yard. That dead branch hanging on by a thread? Time to get it down (it was probably time to do that three days ago, but now’s better than never).
Park away from powerlines and trees if you can. Rain makes the ground soft and then trees fall over.
Have an evacuation plan to a shelter. Evacuate if they’re telling you to.
If you start to flood, don't go in your attic. You'll get trapped if the water rises too high and you can't hack through your roof. This happened to a lot of people in Texas and Louisiana. Get ON the roof.
Be safe, be well <3
What the fuck?
???? WHAT???
Ngl, "tropical storm in death valley" was not on my 2023 bingo card.
Drainage on our roads is shitty in SoCal, don't attempt to drive through water deep enough to touch your bumpers and don't attempt to walk across moving water, water only as deep as your ankles can knock you down and sweep you away.
Predicted wind speeds are similar to strong Santa Anas, so lock things down like you would for that, though keep in mind that yeah the combination of heavy rain and wind leads to more felled trees than just wind.
Take photos of the inside of your home now; flood insurance fucking sucks here and if you're in a possible flood zone you want as much documentation of your home and belongings as possible in case you need to make a claim.
Freezing water bottles also means you've got a lot of ice in your freezer if power goes out, and safe potable water once it thaws, so freeze bottles of water to have something to keep your fridge and freezer cool and store more water regardless of if you want cold water.
Remember water expands when you freeze it so pour a bit out of each bottle so they don't explode.
If you can't get bottled water anymore use sandwich bags full of ice for the same effect
Get a pet carrier or kennel ready in case of evac, shelters usually only allow contained animals
Pet go bags need leash, collars/harness, 3 days of food, and current vaccine records
Animals spook during storms and will slip a collar to flee if given a chance. Don't give them a chance, and do not chase them if they do
Rule of thumb down here is 3 days worth of food, but a week is probably better in places where hurricanes are not common
Fill your bathtub before the storm, floods often damage the water system and this will give you flushing and bathing water for a few days
Try to stay out of floodwaters all together, they are often full of sewage and can hide powerlines, sinkholes, and all kinds of dangers
Post storm: your fridge will stay cold for roughly 24 hrs if you never open it. Pack perishables in cooler bags before the storm, use some of your frozen water bottles as ice packs. Eat all that stuff first and if you're very lucky the power will return within 24 hrs
Do Not Cook in your home with an open flame
Do not run generators inside or under your roof. Generators like grills should be at least 20-30ft from the structure when running
