We cannot blame ourselves for the wars our parents start. Sometimes the very best thing we can do is walk away. 

This was exactly what I needed! 
It's fast, it's fun, and there's so much packed in there, such as:
  • Various species
  • Various sexualities
  • Various gender identities
  • Fun and jokes, but also
  • Deep, profound sadness
All in all a wonderful adventure into space!
