How would you all describe the shape of Momo? Like geometrically speaking, what is he?

Did you know that today is “Teach Something Tuesday?” It’s true! That means you (yes YOU) are invited to use this post to share a cool fact or some neato knowledge or really ANYTHING you know that we (probably) don’t! So take a moment and teach us something today!

ME: really dude? white socks with a tuxedo? CAT: …

I miss when the internet was just a place where we could easily find facts we were trying to find and as payment we’d have to watch a few seconds of a Rick Astley video every now and then

You can give me a compliment but I’m gonna make you type it in using only your remote control, so that should be fun for neither of us

ME [coming back to therapy after a bunch of really bad things happened and it turned out all that anxiety we've been working on this whole time was really just intuition]: ah-HA! THERAPIST: ... ME: are you mad at me?

Bury me in my pajamas for that is when I truly lived

Welcome to margaritaville, my name is Frank and I’ll be taking care of you today, I’ve already SCREAM taken the liberty of putting in an order of French fries for the SCREAM table and our specials are…

When I ask someone if they’re mad at me over and over until they say yes

ME: shoo! shoo! go on! MONDAY: *confused hissing*

I do like that the sun is out later in the day now, but I resent the implication that I should be doing things until like 8:27

Did you know that it's Sunday and on Sundays we do show-and-tell and you (yes YOU) are cordially invited? Its true! So show us something neat and tell us about it! Something you made, found, or bought. Family, pets, places. Anything really! Go on! Show us!

Sundays are for playing on your phone and calculating how long you could survive on free Costco samples and stress-free vibes if you just never went into work again

The name you give your cat is “cat.name” and the name you actually call your cat is “cat(v2)thirdedit[clean] notes/proofedbutlowres(notcleared) quickpass[internalonly].name”

I don’t know what a Labubu is and at this point I’m too afraid to ask

It. Is. Time. For. Walkies. Dad.

I want my coffee so strong that the mosquitos start catastrophizing their day

“House arrest” always seemed like something somebody made up to get out of plans they made a while ago. Like one night some panicked introvert slapped a chunky bracelet around their ankle and was like “yeah man sorry but legally I can’t go” and honestly…brilliant

I always give meteorologists the benefit of the doubt because I can’t imagine how hard it is to accurately predict the weather, but also if you tell me there’s gonna be a thunderstorm tonight and there’s no thunderstorm then you’re dead to me

Our house is finally done being baby proofed! Reinforced locks, high tech camera system, brand new gates. I straight-up DARE a baby to try and get in here now!

May your diet cokes be crisp and your hoodie strings always be even

RIGHT BRAIN: ooh we have extra money in our account! First stop, bookstore. Then the cheese shop, obviously, and then… LEFT BRAIN: we don’t have extra money, we just forgot to pay our… RIGHT BRAIN:

I'm at the age where my mood is almost always completely parking situation-dependent

I think there should be a universally recognized “no guilt trip” amnesty for cancelling plans you agreed to more than six months ago. Like, I have lived several lives since January and I’ve grown old and weary and I mean yes, congrats on the wedding and stuff but listen…

Please that’s my emotional support thing I put on the stairs so that I’d have no choice but to bring it up with me six months ago

Hot girl summer

I am a SAFE SPACE friend. You can tell me you LOVED a book and then you can remember absolutely NOTHING about it and that's totally FINE because I'm probably already thinking about something else ANYWAY so

Ask me how I found out that doggy beef jerky and people beef jerky have remarkably similar packaging

A gameshow called "Is it soup?" where contestants have to guess whether or not household objects are actually made of soup and it's very very easy

It's high time we started talking about the real issues like making it illegal for people crawling through narrow cave systems to film themselves, nobody needs to see that

I think one day I'll probably just accidentally bump into too much furniture and that's how l'll die

ME AT 7:30: gonna be a good day today! I can feel it! Gonna ride this positivity wave all the way to the bank! Nothing but deep chest breaths and gratitude today! Yes, sir! Nothing but… ME AT 7:33 READING THE NEWS: this motherf…

By the time you’re in your 40s you should have: - no idea what anyone is going on about

Ice cream trucks should switch to soup when it’s rainy out

Look, if you don’t have anything nice to say then that is understandable

Just a reminder that if you wanted to see pictures of somebody’s pets twenty years ago it was a whoooole thing

Not now, newly sentient AI technology, we’ve already got enough going on as it is ffs

This summers must-have accessory is, of course, the snacklebox:

The very best way I’ve found to explain what it feels like when even a tiny little piece of my schedule gets changed is to ask them if they’ve ever tried to move a photo around in Microsoft word
