Project Hail Mary - Blog Posts

also just realized and dont feel like editing the last one: why the fuck do eridians count in base 6?

like the reason humans count in base 10 is bc we have 10 fingers, but eridians have 5 limbs with three fingers on each. it would make more sense for them to count in base 3, 5, or 15. so why 6?

i got project hail mary yesterday so everybody better be ready for YAPPING!!!!!!!!

book has been finished (this morning). holy shit. wowee

i took a lot of notes about my thoughts at the moment in my sketchbook and i feel like it'd be easier to send them directly than decipher my thought process (spoilers btw i hope thats obvious)

also i looked at the movie trailer out of curiosity and they did Rocky DIRTY!!!!!!!!!! Like ik his name is Rocky and "oh he has stony skin" yknow what else has stony skin? ECHINODERMS. THATS WHAT IT FUCKING MEANS. And you know whats an echinoderm with radial symmetry, a (typically) pentagonal central portion and five limbs? STARFISH. THE ERIDIANS ARE FUCKING SPACE STARFISH NOT CHUNKS OF CONCRETE WITH PIPECLEANER LEGS

edit: thank fuck that trailer was fake holy shit audio is so important in telling if something is fake now
