Ugly Boys Only

just saw a pigeon doing the puffed up courtship dance thing to another pigeon, and as he was strutting around he suddenly stopped for a split second to do a very brief preen-peck at his own side, then returned to the strutting around. and i surprised myself by instantly losing respect for the male pigeon in that moment, like come on man i appreciate you had an itch or whatever but how is she supposed to feel special when you're getting distracted by bullshit like that? which on reflection i don't endorse, i mean those are pretty harsh dating norms i'm imposing on these pigeons, from a total outsider perspective, for no reason. probably not all girl pigeons are as uptight about that sort of thing as i would apparently be if i was a girl pigeon, maybe she even found it endearing who knows, i don't know her. it's none of my business really. sorry pigeons.

fuuuuck i just realized that the future idealized version of myself cant exist without current me being the catalyst for change and doing hard things. has anybody heard about this

Cooking your produce is a way to protect yourself from cyclospora fyi

i dunno i feel like it's more complicated than that

"old people are usually bigoted" isn't necessarily true, I know some old people who aren’t, but I think a lot of folks forget that *most poor and working class people die younger* and if someone is 70+ there is a higher chance that they're independantly wealthy and, you know, since we live in *this motherfucking system* there's a higher chance that they're white, cis, straight and very comfortable in their privileges. "old people are usually bigoted" is not true but "the people with the most privilege usually live longer" is.
