1$ flea market score. Tiny glass 1960s perfume bottles. I love them.
sorry boss can't come in today i was on my way to work and then a gentle spring breeze kissed my cheek and reminded me it is a serious thing just to be alive on this fresh morning in this broken world
golden retrievers are still the only breed i’ve ever worked with that go absolutely WILD with excitement for the rain most dogs tolerate it, some hate it, but golden retrievers, man. they’re on another level
lost in the sauce
he flat
he just wants to swim
nothing more flattering than someone saying "oh don't get her going" in reference to you when a topic you're passionate about is brought up

OH MY WORD THAT’S BRILLIANT
watched the stalks of a lavender bush by the bus stop dip and sway from the sheer amount of fat little bumblebees on it and you know what. some things in this world are good
more people would exercise if this culture didn't make it absolute hell
I teach martial arts. we play games with the little kids. they swordfight with noodles and throw foam balls at each other. in the summer, we take them out into the parking lot with water guns. in the winter, we have snowball fights.
the teenagers get swords and staffs and practice knives. we teach them moves from marvel movies that they ask about. they get squirt guns and snowball fights too. we let them goof off and climb the support beams and charge directly at each other in padded suits.
sometimes parents say they miss doing things like that. I tell them, "stay for an adult class. just try it out." we build obstacle courses and let them mess around with training rifles. they chat while sparring. we scream and cheer for them when they're in the middle of a circle. and then we send them out to the parking lot with squirt guns and snowballs.
it's exercise. it's healthy. it's an important life skill. and it's fun as fuck.
This is one of the forgotten but imo super harmful symptoms of diet culture-exercise being relegated to weight loss rather than jist enjoying using and being in your body.
Don’t like the gym? Ok, go find a line dancing club. A Tai Chi class. Play Just Dance every day. Arrange a tag football team. Go to a trampoline park.
Using our bodies shouldn’t be a chore assigned in shame.
The happy lil tail 🥹🐈🐈
i like working at plant store. sometimes you ring up someone and there's a slug on their plant and so you're like "Oh haha you've got a friend there let me get that for you" and you put the slug on your hand for safekeeping but then its really busy and you dont have time to take the slug outside before the next customer in line so you just have a slug chilling on your hand for 15 minutes. really makes you feel at peace with nature. also it means sometimes i get to say my favorite line which is "would you like this free slug with your purchase"
@holyknuckled you get it. lterally what are we here on earth for if not to occasionally impose gastropods upon unsuspecting customers. this story is delightful
@holyknuckled like that?
oh? my god???
yeah, Exactly like that
daylight savings is actually truly one of the most evil things in the world. just casually forcing us to confront the fact that time is fake while torturing insomniacs, autistics and schoolchildren across the globe. when will the agony end
ideas conceived by the truly deranged
America mostly observes DST, but landlocked Arizona does not, but inside Arizona is the Navajo Nation which DOES, but inside the Navajo Nation is the Hopi Reservation which DOES NOT.
Its worse when you realize that there's multiple layers of "Navajo nation inside Hopi Reservation, and Hopi Reservation inside Navajo nation" going on
The surrounding pink/brown is Arizona
The top right yellow corner is the Navajo nation
Any pink/brown inside the yellow corner is Hopi reservation
Any further yellow inside that is further pieces of the Navajo nation inside the Hopi reservation
And I think there's even a city or two inside those yellow pieces that are Hopi, but are too small to see on the map
I calculated once that you could travel in a straight line between two points in Arizona and have the current time change 10-12 times because of this
I had to find it. and yes, if you include the border between AZ and NM, you would have to change your clock a total of 12 times, or 11 if you're only counting time changes within state lines.
