IT’S THE RETURN OF SPACE WEEK. Let’s leave this doomed hunk of rock behind and explore the heavens. We’re gonna need a lot to get us through our galactic journey, so let’s start with the most important stuff – the things we saw on the internet.
I know we already posted this amazing article about women’s healthcare and the Star Wars universe, but seriously, it’s the best.

Are you ready to have your mind blown??? SPACE MIGHT NOT EVEN BE REAL, Y’ALL
Now that we’re all buckled in for our journey across space and time, let’s settle in for the rest of the good stuff that we’re bringing to you this week on the USS POME!
