If you see this, I IMPLORE you to post a picture from whatever device you’re using without explanation.

Guess I'll ride to ruin, and the world's ending.

Introduce yourself with 5 animals you've seen in the wild.

A Sealion, who checked me out while I was kayaking in Marina del Rey

A bobcat, out and about while I was walking

A rattlesnake, at Will Rogers park

A skunk, toodling along on the sidewalk while I was reading.

A black BEAR:
A brown-and-tan American Black Bear (ursus americanus) standing on all-fours outside of a living room glass door that is half-covered by vertical blinds. The bear has an energy that suggests "hello, do you have any ham available in there?"

Silver Medal! Which is to say we lost quite well.

Excerpt from the book "To Conquer Death" by Richard H Moon "“Take my eyes to watch over your grave. My arms to guard the way. My legs to carry out hope. My skin to bring warmth to the cold. My breath to speak your name. Take my heart for your journey, for it is yours. Father of Skies, and Mother of Earth, watch her on her journey, let her be untrou- bled by the cry of ulf or the claw of the Brown One, let her reach your meadow and bathe in your waters.” The girl sniffed but said nothing. Brown One. Bruin. They wouldn’t even say the proper name of the animal that had killed her mother: Ahrktosh. Never say its name in your prayers, lest the Hill of Fur and Death hear your disrespect, and be angered, went the usual lesson. Another of so many, all of them at their feet—just Run, Hide, Pretend that the forest is a safe hom"

My god, the ugly laugh i laughed at this.

Original title: The Life of a Lead #curling
Michael Sheen as a really fancy and aloof vampire, staring snootily. Text below that reads "Me after the guard I overthrew into the house is the scoring rock" with a curling stone at the very end.

An all-black kitten, all-white kitten, and diamond-faced tuxedo kitten, all three laid out in a boot box and looking at the camera with very blue eyes.

These three look ready to drop the hottest New Wave album of 1987.

"N*zi phase" absolute horseshit. The average American man has had an anime phase and spends the rest of his brief days contemplating the peace of the land and the journey of a thousand steps.
