I took a nap, and dreamed about saving a family ("parents" and young adult kitten) of orange and white cats from a very busy traffic area. I wanted to get them to a good home, but they were semi-feral, and not really keen on being held or transported, though they didn't do more than gently bite and swat me.
It isn't that I understand the memes.
It's that I've stopped caring whether I understand or not.
I've hit the point of semantic satiation with the internet. I can be a grandma now in comfort. "That's nice, dear" can be a legitimate answer to everything, because parse errors no longer throw exceptions; they just return empty strings.

just got a small flock of bushtits at the suet feeder, maybe 6 or 8 of them. they's adorable tiny birds, little feathered flying mice. also at least one hummingbird has discovered the feeder, though whether it's figured out there's food inside, I don't know--it didn't land, just hovered inquiringly.
My experience of mastodon: diving through a trapdoor into a poorly lit space and gradually discovering how big it is and how many other people are also sheltering in here, and how the one thing we have in common is human.
Given the intense focus on identity as divisive at the moment, this strangely anonymised space for meeting people according to their thoughts alone feels rare and hopeful.

So @Oneironott wanted to see the Mountain, and it's a super clear day. We were looking at place to go that weren't the pricey Space Needle, and I...found this.
Columbia Center Skyview Observatory.
A full wrap-around view from the 73rd floor. In the tallest building in Seattle--twice as tall as the Needle. For $15.
The views were astounding.
Speaking of dragons, what if being slain was part of a dragon's life cycle? Imagine a scenario where dragons are not merely long lived, but unable to die of natural causes due to uncommon toughness and resiliance? So perhaps this is why, despite having been around forever, they start causing such a fuss that it attracts heroes to save the people from them. Then, like a spiritual phoenix, they are free to rest and be reborn anew.
ALERTA ALERTA
VIETNAMESE AMERICAN COMMUNITY VULNERABLE TO DEPORTATION:
"we believe that Vietnamese community members, with final removal orders are vulnerable to potential arrest, detention, and deportation. ICE has used more aggressive tactics such as threatening community members with self-deportation and forcing folks to sign Vietnamese citizenship applications"
