Heard about the Louvre jewel heist and my first thought was “finally, some good old fashioned normal crime”

a book can’t be for everybody but it can be for somebody and when that somebody finds that book it feels like it was written just for them and they hold onto it forever

Being labeled as "radical" for my basic beliefs is so wild, considering I was raised in the church and built a lot of my core beliefs from themes in the bible.

Yes, I do believe that all humans deserve food, clean water, shelter, and healthcare... I thought that was just a common understanding.

Disappearing into the bog for some much-needed bog time, returning after a month with a new healthy glow and a strange, faraway look in my eyes like a wild hare

I feel like I should perhaps make it clear that I did not rob the Louvre. It had nothing to do with me, and I’m kinda mad I didn’t think of it first.

He's home 🩷 No real answers - especially to how he turned around so quickly, but stable enough to be with me. Now hopefully we can heal together and my own sicklies with asthmatic bronchitis will chill along with him.

Don’t forget to take care of yourself.
Don’t forget to rest.
Don’t forget to read banned books.
Don’t forget to dream.
Don’t forget to let the forest enter your body and mind until you are entangled with mossy gloom.

Halloween Hay Ride, Debbie Criswell.

A folk art painting titled "Halloween Hay Ride" by artist Debbie Criswell.
The painting depicts a whimsical Halloween scene at night with a full moon and a witch flying on a broomstick. The scene is set in a rural area with rolling hills and houses. A horse-drawn hay wagon, carrying a figure in a black tuxedo and top hat, is at the center of the image. Surrounding the wagon, several figures, including some dressed as ghosts and a black cat, are running along a dirt road.
In the foreground, there is a graveyard with tombstones and a field of pumpkins. The background features several houses, including a large white house and a red barn-like structure, nestled in autumn-colored trees.
