Inside you there are two wolves. Both wolves are being visited by three spirits. The spirits all have two ghost-wolves inside them. The ghost-wolves are all being visited by three extra-dead spirits. From there, the math gets upsetting

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

The image depicts a comic.
Panel one shows the main character lying in bed with a heating pad.
Panel two shows the same image, but now a cat has appeared on the heating pad.
Panel three shows the same image, but a second cat has appeared alongside the first on the heating pad.
Panel four shows the same image with two cats on the heating pad, one dropping from the ceiling, and one entering through the window.

The image is of a comic titled "Winter."
Panel one depicts monarch butterflies flying. They say, "We take a long journey south."
Panel two depicts a bear hibernating underground. It says, "I fall into a deep, impenetrable sleep."
Panel three depicts a squirrel holding an acorn, with other nuts scattered around it. Off camera, someone asks, "How do YOU survive?"
Panel four depicts the squirrel having grown enormously round after having eaten all the nuts.

Yeah, that’s what really bothered me. No matter where I looked, I was somehow always looking through the wrong part of the lens for the magnification I needed. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ I would really like bifocals, but it seems that nobody really offers those anymore?

The last time I tried calling their offices, at least someone answered at Sen. Hassan’s office and recorded my comment (not that it made any difference). When I called Sen. Shaheen’s office my call went to voicemail and the mailbox was full.
