Emoji inspiration: I call this part of the year (the time between Boxing Day and New Year's Day) the "never-never times" because some things are open, others are closed, some people are working, a lot not, so fuck all gets done, and if you need anything besides food or groceries, you're basically SOL


Happy International Day of Epidemic Preparedness!

While that is far too much crying for one person, and I hope it happens so little next year that you don’t need to record anymore, these really are fun statistics to have kept.

Thanks :)

I think it's interesting how time goes by and things start to hurt less. Will be something to look back on for sure.
