A shop was like "Our pride flag disappeared & we were afraid it was a hateful person", then they played the security footage & it was a large man emphatically singing Sia's "Chandelier" while swinging on the flag, accidentally breaking it, continuing to sing show-must-go-on style, & stumbling away 💀

בנושא אחר, תזכורת לעצמי: הסיבה שאני לא שמה כמעט בושם היא שכשאני כן שמה בושם אני שונאת את זה. מסתובבת כל הערב בתוך עננת ריח שמציקה לי ומפריעה לי להריח את האוכל, את הניחוח השונה של כל חלל וחדר, את הצמחייה והאוויר בחוץ. זה גוזל ממני חוש.
