There’s one guy in Columbus Ohio that has a completely unique strain of Covid that we only know about because of how much he is shitting and it is baffling researchers.

His identity is a mystery but they know where commutes to because his shits turn up there too.

Imagine going about your daily life blissfully unaware that there’s a research team dedicated to tracking you through your actual shit

It really upsets me that keeping big cats as pets is both horribly unethical and also suicidal. I would love to have a large kitty cat in my house. I'd prefer an animal with the form factor and personality of a common housecat, large enough to put its front paws on my shoulders, but I'll take anything at this point. Dog lovers can have a very large dog as a pet. It's so unfair cat lovers cannot have a very large kitty. Instead of breeding horrible squashed noses and long hair, cat breeders should be trying to create the feline great dane.

if absence makes the heart

grow fonder, I wonder how

many lifetimes we were apart

before this one; our love is a war

between too many miles &

not enough now, but there

isn’t a thing that your hands

on me won’t cure - darling,

when I picture myself happy,

it’s always with

you

Actual convo with my bf today:

Him: what are your plans for the weekend?

Me: true crime and crafts with my bff! Girls night!

Him: *long pause* so…are you two going to hold up a craft store and then knit to decompress? Are you sure that’s a good idea?

Me: *confused* no? why would we do that?

Him: well, what crime are you two committing?

Me: *cackling* Ohhh nooooo. Baby, we are knitting and watching murder shows!

Him: Oh! That sounds like fun! Be safe! Love you! Glad I won’t need bail money!

I’m not sure if I should be worried that my boyfriend was about to be really supportive of me and my best friend committing actual crimes before crafting. But, at least his love is seemingly unconditional. 😂

Safe Harbor I am a boat That frequently Takes on water Barely staying afloat Desperately needing repair I struggle to navigate The choppy waters Of my emotions But you are always there A safe harbor For me to dock Encouraging me To fix myself A place of peace Of safety and stability Where I can always go When I feel like I’m drowning A place to stay Until the waters Calm And I’m ready to sail again Even when my flags are In tatters The wood is peeling And warped You see beauty Where there should be None You love me When I convinced myself No one else could You make me Want to be A better person One who functions And shines The way you see One who can navigate Anything With ease Even when my navigation Is off And everything Feels scary I feel peace Knowing I have a safe harbor To return to I love you.

Your big brown eyes make me want

to give you my all

Mend your broken heart

Kiss it better

Love you forever.

How did I go from

Cynical and bitter

To love sick and happy?

Ready to pull up my roots

And run to you

239 miles from my door

To yours

Give up my career

If it means falling asleep

In your arms

Every night.

My willingness to trade

My stability and life

To explore the north

And be close to you

Scares me.

What if I lose myself

Along the way?

Somehow you make me feel

Like it will all be okay

I was just thinking to myself that I should go to bed since it’s a work night. Then remembered I resigned from my job and the new one doesn’t start til Monday. This is the most time off I’ve had since 2017. I’m about to bask in doing nothing for 5 days. Man, I’m so excited!
