Understandable that you feel that way about the astronomical accuracies of minecraft. I wonder if there's pixelized constellations....
Off topic, but, as a fellow mac n cheese enjoyer, what is your favorite brand and/or recipe???
(I'm a big fan of Annie's white cheddar, it comes in a little purple box!!!)

Amazing Question.
Iāve been eating Kraft Mac & Cheese since I was a kid. The kind that comes in the blue box. I like the shape of the noodles. I like that it cooks in exactly the same way every time. And I like that it tastes the way I expect it to. Every box. Every time.
For a while, I stopped buying it. I tried really hard to switch to Annieās; those boxes with the little bunnies on them. It was organic. āHealthier.ā Thatās what Beth told me. She wanted me to try something new. Something better. And I did. I ate a lot of Annieās. I kept the boxes stacked neatly in my kitchen just like I used to with Kraft. But it didnāt taste right. It was okay. But not right.
After we fought, I went back to Kraft. I donāt think thatās symbolic of anything. Or maybe it is. I just missed the taste. I like knowing exactly how something will be. Itās comforting.
Also, I like the powdered cheese. I donāt care if itās fake. Itās familiar.
whatās your opinion on life in space? i personally believe that with so many planets its impossible not to have somehow have life, even if itās just a single cell being

I really quite like the emoji you used!
Statistically, the probability of life existing elsewhere in the universe is high. There are billions of galaxies, each with billions of stars and potentially habitable planets. Even if the conditions for life are rare, the sheer number of possibilities makes it unlikely that Earth is the only place where life has developed. I donāt know if weāll ever find it, but mathematically, it makes sense that it exists. As for my own opinion; I really hope we get to discover more about possible life in space soon! It is an unrealistic wish but I dream of it nonetheless.
OOC: Have you ever written fanfic with Adam?? You rp him in a way that expresses his emotions and autism really well without infantilizing him or making him unfeeling and robotic, which is something I tend to see (they probably don't mean it in a harmful way, just misunderstood the character) and it's perfect! I really enjoy the way he's portrayed on this page, and I think the way you write in general is very pleasing
OOC: My god, this made me so happy to hear <3
I always try my best to immerse myself in his headspace.
And to answer your questionāIāve actually never really written fanfiction. Well, thatās not entirely true, because I kind of did with my girlfriend years ago š (lol). I do write a lot, but Iāve never really put anything out there.
I have been thinking about maybe posting something on AO3 (may I be protected from the writerās curse), but my biggest struggle is coming up with a storyline. Once I have a rough idea of where the story is going, I can fill in the details and start writingābut starting from scratch is kind of tough for me.
So if you have any ideas youād like to see, please feel free to share! Iād love to take any suggestions into consideration.
@deerrdarling Abigail and I recently watched āCarolā together.
It was fun, I liked this dialogue from the movie a lot :
If you met an alien, what would you tell and/or ask them?
Okay. First off: how do you breathe? Do you breathe? What kind of atmosphere are you used to? Is oxygen poisonous to you? Do you metabolize something else entirely? And your gravity, how strong is it? Do you walk upright? Do you even need to walk? Whatās your skeletal structure like? Do you even have bones?
Whatās your biology based on? Is there a version of DNA where youāre from? Or is it something entirely foreign to us? Whatās your body temperature? Do you even need to regulate it? Do you get cold?
Do you perceive time linearly? Do you dream? Have you categorized your stars yet? What are your units of measurement? Do you know what we are? Have you been watching us the way weāve imagined you?
And I think⦠after all that..Iād probably just say:
Iāve been waiting for you my whole life. Not you specifically, maybe. But the possibility of you. And now I have about a million more questions.
How could I not hate myself for the blindness that led me to believe she might ever have loved me as I am?.
Surely, I must despise myself as I do her. In the end, we both betrayed me.
Beth always hated the idea of this blog. She didnāt want me posting as much so I didnāt.
All this time I tried so hard to make her happy. I stopped interacting with people I like because it made her uncomfortable, I stopped talking as much because it made her uncomfortable, I stopped behaving like myself because it made her uncomfortable.
I hate her and I hate myself.
Were not the bliss too often crost
By that unhappy vile distrust,That gnawing doubt, and anxious fear, that dangerous malady,
That terrible tormenting rage, that madness, jealousy.
It is love that tortures you, isnāt it?
You donāt speak of it but I know and so do you.
I did not like that.
Hi Adam! I hope you're having a good day. I have a NASA shirt and a bracelet with planets n it that remind me of you.
Have you heard about the two astronauts that recently came back from space after being up in the ISS for a long time? What are your thoughts on that?
- š§· anon
Good evening!,
That is kind of nice to hear, actually. About the bracelet and the shirt.
And yes, I did read about the two. Spending that long in microgravity changes your body in ways we still donāt fully understand. Itās incredible what the human body can adapt toābut also, what it canāt. Your muscles atrophy, bone density drops, your cardiovascular system shifts. Even your eyesight can change. Some astronauts develop something called SANSāspaceflight-associated neuro-ocular syndrome. And then thereās the radiation exposure. Being up there for months is like being slowly rearranged by space. I think there must be something quietly haunting about coming back to Earth after so long..

I intentionally left my wording open to interpretation.
Am I your favorite, Nigel?.
Beth was over today. She took this picture while I was reading and said I should post it.
So I am.
Hey Adam, I had a pretty good view last night! I was busy during sunset so I couldn't see the seven planets later, but I did see this at least.
You captured Orionās Belt very clearly, with Alnitam, Alnilak, and Mintaka lined up in the center. Below them is Rigel, one of the brightest stars in the sky.
I also see a faint streak across the middleāpossibly a satellite passing through while the picture was taken. And on the right, the Pleiades cluster is visible. Itās an open star cluster about 444 light-years away, meaning the light in your photo has been traveling since the early 1600s. By now, some of the stars you captured may not even exist anymore. Like Dr. Lecter told me āsome of the stars that appear brightest to us have already diedā.
Though, stars donāt ādieā the way we do.
They simply vanish.
