The whole republican Christian gun obsessed cult is pure evil.

Science fact: Italian roosters say “chicchirichi”
Pro tip: cumin on watermelon
We gotta drop "What do you do for fun?" question from the small talk list. It's too hard. I always panic and say something like I like to eat lunch

I've collected the seasoning packets from over 300 servings of instant ramen and now I'm going to compress them all into a small dense brick and eat it raw like an apple
Two children were killed and seventeen people were injured in a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School. A Cracker Barrel logo change received far more scrutiny and attention than any fight against the epidemic of gun violence in this country. Our priorities remain idiotic.

Sick of feeling disgusted by everything that is currently disgusting
Most of the garden birds are perched on their favourite branches waiting out the rain Not Big Dave, as he is watching Bert’s worm hunt from ground level, as his favourite branch snapped under the weight Bert can be made out through the splashes doing his weird bouncy dance

When Bernie Sanders said, "The billionaires cannot have it all," and Winnie the Pooh was like, "A little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference."
When Anthony Bourdain said, "If I'm an advocate for anything, it's to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river," and The Rolling Stones were like, "You gotta roll me, and call me the tumblin' dice."

Book on a table in a house, all about the rules for mirrors. Reach to pick it up and a hand runs into a reflection of itself. It's supposed to ward off reaching a second time but my soul is under there
Tree frogs can eat monarch caterpillars without getting poisoned so they have been added to my shit list even though they’re cute
