Liking niche YouTube content sucks sometimes because I forgot the channel name and spent 20 min searching terms like “Japanese wife and French husband take relaxing trip to small French villages to walk around and go to flea markets quiet vlog”

once again thinking about the best Lord of the Rings meme

Aragorn and Theoden talking before the final journey to Minas Tirith in Rrturn of the King (3 panels)

Theoden: 6,000 spears, less than half of what is hoped for

Aragorn: hey check it out, I found two more

Theoden: 6,002 spears. More than half of what is hoped for

Sometimes I write out a ‘hot take’ and never post it because I remember Bo Burnham saying “can any single person shut the fuck up about any single thing for an hour?”

Forever hilarious so me when people call someone/something ‘underrated’ that’s insanely popular because they personally became obsessed recently. “This actor never gets enough credit!” and it’s Meryl Streep “This combo is so underrated!” and it’s a PBJ

This is Bodie. His presence indicates the beginning of Pride Month. May his whimsy and steadfastness bring joy and confidence to all. 14/10 the parade starts right behind him 🌈🐾 (IG: hellobodie)

a golden retriever puppy on a bright pink rope leash prances through some tall grass. he’s wearing a brightly patterned bandana around his neck and is carrying a miniature six-stripe pride flag in his mouth. his front right paw is raised mid-stride, like he’s ready to hop into a pride parade at any second.
