Part of why healthy people aren't afraid to get sick is- they think if they do develop long-term issues, they'll be able to go & get treated by doctors who will work day and night to fix them (as it was on House, M.D.) & don't realize there's a 99% chance they'll be told they just have anxiety

the twilight zone 😵‍💫
PANEL 1: a pigeon floating in space, looking troubled. the caption says "it's that time again, where i feel totally lost and aimless..." PANEL 2: the pigeon floats further into a swirling background, their eyes also swirls. the caption says "...where time stretches on, and nothing has any meaning any more..."

getting older
PANEL 1: a little pigeon with an emo fringe looks worried. the caption says "when i was younger, i was extremely self-conscious" PANEL 2: the little pigeon sweats, clutching its head in worry and crying. the panel is full of red eyes looking at it. the caption says "i used to constantly worry what others thought of me" PANEL 3: the pigeon is older, standing proudly while light shines behind it. the caption says "now, i basically never have that worry. partly because of confidence..." PANEL 4: the pigeon wearily walks along with a bag and a list. the caption says "...but mainly, i'm just too tired to care." the pigeon says "life is short and i have errands to run!!"

PANEL 1: a pigeon looks out the window, spotting red, yellow, and green leaves. they happily exclaim "it's getting colder outside! you know what that means!" PANEL 2: the caption says 'autumnal flavours!' the pigeon looks gleeful as they're surrounded by a pumpkin, a coffee, a maple leaf, apple cider, gingerbread men, and tea PANEL 3: the caption says 'snuggling up cosy and warm inside!' the pigeon sits in a pink chair, eyes closed and content, holding a pink cup of coffee whilst under a blanket. they are in front of a roaring brick fireplace PANEL 4: the caption says 'seasonal affective disorder!' the pigeon is buried up to their neck in brown leaves. they look aghast, saying "oh crumbs"

i like me :)
PANEL 1: a pigeon sitting in a cinema with popcorn. two pigeons behind it laugh, one whispering "check out this loser seeing a movie alone." the caption says 'i used to hate doing things by myself, either because i worried about others judging me...' PANEL 2: the pigeon sits, disoriented, with a blue spiral background. the caption says '...or because i didn't want to be alone with my thoughts.' PANEL 3: the pigeon stands up, determined. the caption says 'but if i'm gonna be stuck with myself my whole life, i want to at least like who i am' PANEL 4: the pigeon sits at a dinner table, happily gazing out a window at the moon. the caption says 'it's taken a lot of work, but now i cherish time alone more than i ever thought possible'

How to sum me up in an image 😂 Nights are the best time!

Also known as a recent (ish) purchase that I really should share here too
A small red plastic sign with white writing in capital letters is placed on a wooden table. The writing says "I don't do mornings... or afternoons".

I don't know how to explain this but I think my life would be better if I was a tiny frog sitting under a tiny mushroom peacefully listening to the rain.

I am not built for the 9 to 5. I am built to hang out with the raccoons that live in my attic & to share lasagna with them.
