There is no coherent theme, only vibes

With delight I switched to eating the peach, setting my pickle aside for the moment. Pickles and peaches are evidently a pretty weird mouth combination.

My beloved came up for a kiss and recoiled from my “freak boy mouth.”

If you care about Animal Cruelty in Factory Farms, you need to get legislation passed. It must become a crime to mistreat animals in those ways, and when malfeasances occurs, the onus of responsibility for those crimes must fall upon wealthy shoulders. That, also, requires legislation. It requires regulations, and regulators.

The largest source of Microplastics is wear and tear on automobile tires. It doesn’t matter what brand of shampoo you buy. It doesn’t matter which company you support with your dollar. The issue of Public Transit is too large-scale to be handled at anything less than the municipal level.

It’s not enough to just not participate in society

If you want the world to Change, you must leverage the mechanisms of political power.

last night someone left the door open and none of us could figure out who did it. not a huge deal but it’s important to keep the animals in, if they were to get out of their room into the main space. since we all swore we shut it behind us we decided to look back at the motion sensor game cam to see if it bounced open or something so we could fix it so it wouldn’t do that.

i was like “it had to have somehow bounced open. it’s not like anyone out here would be breaking in.”

my friend joked, “there were a few deer in the pasture last night that looked shifty.”

Well you’re never gonna fucking believe this. 

Not sure what he is. He's bigger and fatter than the green and brown anoles we see a ton of this season. Not nearly as skittish, either. The only thing that really scared him was trying to pull the blinds up for a better picture!

we have to write poems in my creative writing certificate program, so I pieced something together from Belphie's medical reports
