Shout out to Beatrice, my girl invented the first “One Brain-Cell” Joke when mocking Benedick, the first mention of him in the entire play.

Ugh I want one of these Moon Lamps so bad but the big ones are $100 EACH and that’s the cheapest I’ve seen them..
They’re cool as hell but I can’t justify spending $100, can someone find me a better deal? I’ll love you forever
Good news!
I found moon lamps HERE for half price.
Lamps just as big and just as detailed.
You can get a moon lamp…
–
as big as a volleyball for $50 ($100)
–
as big as a shot put for $30 ($60)
– as big as a baseball for $20 ($40) etc.
You also get FREE shipping worldwide, a wooden stand, and a USB-charging cable.
They glow two colors - silver and yellow and they have dimmable brightness.
* gets one for myself one bc nobody else will give me the moon *
Update: it came and its amazing. I used it for a couple nights and it made the best night light
I’m glad I got the $30 medium moon. It’s the perfect size to take to the bathroom at night.
I have one and it’s my favorite light for so many reasons:
I like that the battery is rechargeable bc you don’t waste batteries, don’t need to keep it plugged in, and you can take it anywhere.
And I like how incredible detailed it is. Moon shadows, mountains, craters, it’s all there.
if u like the moon I can’t recommend it enough
i fucking love the moon, thanks!
some miscellaneous Odos (and quark)
I’ve always really like the idea that Odo gets all melty when he’s sad or being particularly melodramatic

“Oregon’s Lovely, Lonely Coast
Nature offers few handholds along the precipitous Oregon coast, where Heceta Head Light north of Florence flashes an automated warning to mariners every ten seconds. Winter’s pounding surf and perpetual drizzle - more than 100 inches in some ares - prompted a local wit to observe: ‘Oregonians don’t tan. They rust.’ ”
