And *fumbles and drops my pile of queue cards* ah fuck wait no *the menacing horse* what was that.

They just don’t release the hounds like they used to

Yes well, we're still working on who should let the dogs out.

I think a fun way to have he/she pronouns would be by helping other avoid the ambiguous antecedent problem and taking on the pronouns that are less represented in the current group.

No longer allowed to help my dad in the garden because i picked up the shovel and he saw “a gleeful and cruel darkness in my eyes”

There’s something so uniquely terrifying about memory issues. I feel like my self is slipping away from me.

Hey, reblog this version instead, please!
