Got to this little guy late but I couldn't pass on sharing it. The pollen its storing on its back is so lovely as it landed on another flower to get a bit more.

Today I’m thinking about the english prof who I asked for a letter of rec for an on-campus job. I was a star student. He even read my papers aloud to the class. His reply: “What would I write other than you were a good student and received an ‘A’ in my class?” No punchline. He was just a dick.

was traveling for work and asked to crash on a friend's couch. i wasn't feeling well so she insisted on drawing me a bath. upon getting in and noticing an oddly familiar scent, I then spied a bottle of lemon dish soap on the counter and realized i was the human equivalent of a soaking lasagna pan.

was messaging about logistics for an event with an artist I know and he just lets me know it’s his birthday just flat out and it made me so happy. wish everyone would just say so like this rather than be coy or whatever

the reason it seems like arguing for position is the thing to do… is because we don’t see or hear the people who choose to simply disengage

Today, my daughter said “I hate you” I heard on a parenting vid that what they really mean is “I need a hug” (and the like) So, I asked if she needed a hug. She said yes. I hugged her and explained that she can just ask next time. Later on she walks up to me and goes: “I hate you I want a hug”

[on the essay i have started and stopped seventeen times today] it’s not that I have no creative juice left it’s that I don’t want to write something that isn’t good irony being that it can’t get good if I don’t work on it

This happened again. So glad it wasn’t just a passing phase, and she can whip this out whenever she likes.

So I googled chicken orb, because I was looking for a specific orb-like chicken photo and I did not expect there to be actual hamster balls you can buy to put your chickens in. www.chickenorb.com
a brown chicken in a white wire orb, much like a hamster ball, but for chickens. flowers in the forefront, and a green lawn in the background.

School drop off was extra spicy this morning… I got out of my car to help my kiddo out of her car seat, and this girl (prob 11 or 12) comes over and says, “you’re her mom?” I say yeah, and she looks me dead in the eyes and goes, “I’m surprised by some of your parenting choices.”

there are 4 people on here that I promised songs to. these songs are still baking in my brain and may emerge eventually i blame this on the influx of humans to this app and my subsequent scramble for other quick sources of dopamine

was at a school event with my kid on my lap and at one point she looked all around the room and then turned to me, brushed my cheek and whispered “you’re not like the other mommies” and I still can’t tell if it was a compliment or ???

when my cousin comments on a pic of my dogs like “omg they’re getting so big!” And I just reply “lol come over” I wonder if people who see it think I’m just inviting some rando to pet my puppies 🤔

Team America: World Police (10/10) Movie CLIP - Dicks, Pussies and Assholes (2004) HD
Team America: World Police movie clips: http://j.mp/1L685uA BUY THE MOVIE: http://amzn.to/vfK6PB Don't miss the HOTTEST NEW TRAILERS: http://bit.ly/1u2y6pr CLIP DESCRIPTION: In his inspiring speech to world leaders, Gary (Trey Parker) compares Team America, Kim Jong Il and the Film Actor's Guild to various body orifices. FILM DESCRIPTION: Directed by South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, Team America: World Police is a tongue-in-cheek but nonetheless politically biting send-up of the CGI-laden, big-budget action movies that have taken an almost exclusive hold over mainstream box offices, particularly during the summer months. Inspired by the Thunderbirds, a popular 1960s children's series, Team America: World Police uses similarly styled, but significantly more crass, marionette puppets in lieu of computer-generated images to breath life into an elite group of adventurers known as Team America. Their mission: to travel the world, root out its terrorists, and keep evil at bay. Aside from intentionally employing all of the hallmarks of standard action-adventure blockbuster formulas, from a prototypical hero to his communist arch-rival, the film also boasts the occasional musical number. The puppets were created by Norman Tempia along with Charles and Stephen Chiodo, the brothers behind the cult classic Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Team America: World Police is not based on Team America, a 1980s series from Marvel Comics, which followed a patriotic team of racecar drivers. CREDITS: TM \u0026 © Paramount (2004) Cast: Trey Parker Director: Trey Parker Producers: Frank C. Agnone II, Scott Aversano, Anne Garefino, Trey Parker, Michael Polaire, Scott Rudin, Matt Stone, Pam Brady Screenwriters: Trey Parker, Matt Stone, Pam Brady WHO ARE WE?

was gonna make a long thread of these but i kinda hated it when someone welcomes a new user that’s a greet skeet (ok this is cute) when someone reposts a birdsite banger that’s a cheat sheet (solid mid) But then… if someone posts 🍆 that’s a meat skeet (I hate this and I hate myself)
