and while i found it very cute in nature i would not want to encounter a millipede in my house 🫣

a gray and white cat sitting on the steps of a farm building; its penetrating gaze is weighing the worth of your soul

met an excellent farm cat today

look at this fuzzy boy i met on my walk today!

it means the intern who ordered the awards heard “cruciferous” instead of “cruciverbalist”

i spaced out while jogging and almost slammed into Michael Cera, who was walking very quickly and forcefully in the opposite direction. he looked pissed about it but also maybe that is just his face?
