ah yes, the stage of creative organizing projects where we tarry over whether it's OK to use Google Docs or not I had missed this hahaha

gotta stop driving myself insane reading instagram comments, fucking fuck

"Tony Hawk Knee Scooter"

Just saw a car with a sticker that said "novice driver" and I like that because it has a sort of sorcerer's apprentice vibe

Gotta get that "I'm into birds now" money

Jealous of the tech guys who got so rich that now they just post about birds

Eating a breakfast sandwich in a strip mall while my mom is in surgery and wondering how they make the egg taste 3D printed

It would appear banana guy and the laboratory are two different guys called Cavendish my bad
