Here we are, floating on a rock in space, and people still find time to worry about mismatched socks. Humanity, you’re hilarious. Embrace the galactic circus. Socks are the least of your worries.

She cringed away from the dusty shelf, its surface covered with various jars and vials of cloudy liquids. Cobwebs netted it all together. Inside the jars, despite the cloudiness of the liquid, shapes floated. She didn’t have time to deal with whatever this was.
