So, a little backstory… kbin bugs out a lot when trying to post to a federated instance. Error messages when things went through fine, no error messages but nothing shows up on the host instance, error message with nothing on the host but still seeing upvotes/interaction (???) from my profile page. So I finally got around to creating an alt account and posting the above. The concept was a literal shower thought, the image put together while I was falling asleep, and the title after I had already fallen asleep multiple times and dropped my phone on my face. (I seriously couldn’t think of anything good and went with the next semi-coherent thought.) Thanks Stamets for the template!

That episode was terrifying when I was a kid.
