LOVE the evolution of aziraphale’s replies to “let me tempt you to some lunch” from nothing in the book, to “who am i to resist?” in the radio drama, to “temptation accomplished!” in the show

some actual thoughts on this:

book aziraphale’s already a bastard. was at the beginning of the book and still is at the end, and he’s pretty chill with this. he might occasionally protest that he’s the nice one, and he certainly does nice things, but he also does not seem especially conflicted about his bastardy. it’s just how he is, and he settled comfortably into it a very long time ago. he’s already in with crowley’s temptations, really, ever since they got married the arrangement, and happy to go along with it now. and radio drama aziraphale is much the same.

but tv aziraphale is different. still a bit of a bastard, sure, but he’s also way more caught up in being good and doing what he’s supposed to. and the whole show, really, is crowley trying to tempt him away from that, get him to acknowledge their side as its own thing vs everyone else. and in that final scene, he has. finally aziraphale has chosen his side, chosen crowley, and flipped so many birds to both heaven and hell along the way. temptation accomplished.

precisely !!! good omens aziraphale i gotta admit i like aziraphale - and crowley - characterization better in the book but their arcs and a lot of the scenes we got from the show are absolutely amazing so now my own headcanon is a mix of their personnalities from the book and radio drama and stuff happening in the series

ISS - Expedition 60 Mission patch.

July 19, 2019

Three new Expedition 60 crewmembers are just one day away from launching and joining the space residents aboard the International Space Station. Meanwhile, the orbiting trio worked on space biology hardware today while their crewmates on Earth completed final launch preparations in Kazakhstan.

Two different life science facilities onboard the station are being serviced today to support upcoming research into microgravity’s effect on biological systems. NASA astronaut Nick Hague ensured the Cell Biology Experiment Facility is airtight to contain the high humidity necessary for the Space Moss botany study. NASA Flight Engineer Christina Koch set up power to the Life Science Glovebox for the Cell Science-02 healing and tissue regeneration experiment.

The duo handled a variety of other station tasks today, including Hague reconfiguring the Kibo laboratory module‘s robotic arm backup drive system and testing new station lights. Koch loaded new software on a science laptop computer then replaced components in the station’s restroom, the Waste and Hygiene Compartment.

Station Commander Alexey Ovchinin had a light duty day in space mostly cleaning station hardware in the Russian segment. In the evening, he joined both astronauts reviewing emergency procedures for the arrival of a new crew on Saturday.

NASA astronaut Drew Morgan is launching Saturday at 12:28 p.m. EDT inside the Soyuz MS-13 spacecraft on his first space mission. He joins veteran station residents Luca Parmitano and Alexander Skvortsov for their historic mission lifting off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. They will dock to the space station’s Zvezda service module at 6:50 p.m. 50 years to the day Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin first walked on the Moon.
