In a comic strip panel, person in a red shirt walks through a sunlit forest. The text says "Sometimes I go looking for a tiny part of the universe." "This part only takes up as much space as: half an apple, a salt shaker, or 2 ping pong balls." Each of these items is shown. Galaxies and stars swirl as the text says "But somehow, in an unfathomably huge universe," and then there's a complex mess of forest leaves, with one tiny Wilson's warbler in one corner, and the text says "this one tiny part" There's a close up of the warbler, blazing yellow against a sparkly yellow background, and the text says "can fill up my whole heart."
Tiny part.

Diane, 11:30 AM, February 24th. Entering the town of Twin Peaks, five miles south of the Canadian border, twelve miles west of the state line. I’ve never seen so many trees in my life.

Wait a second, I thought the core conservative ideology was based on freedom of speech and criticism of censorship?

To my delight, NASA’s Science Mission Directorate has sent me an actual expert panel evaluation of my “flatten the planets” proposal! Sadly, they decided not to fund it.
The guy at the reception of my doctor's office is having a very interesting dead-serious conversation with someone: “Yeah, I am not sure how to schedule appointments backwards in time, usually we try to schedule forwards...”

There should be a name for the phenomenon when every playlist you create magically turns into Best of Queen.

On the other, you must be deliberately oblivious to all the pain you are inflicting on said cats. Such a morally abhorrent thing to do.

Screenshot from the same account explaining that the cat was hit by a car and almost died, is in the emergency room, needs multiple surgeries, etc.
This is the story of so many outdoor English cats I see online. It goes from "lol cats are fine outside dummy" to "oh god he was hit by a car please help me". (this cat survived, by the way)
