REN WILL RIDE A MOTORCYCLE
text message screenshot: me: "if you ever take your motorcycle up to Seattle, can I ride it? (not drive it b/c I would not trust myself to do that lol, but ride behind you?)" very cool motorcycle friend: "Do you have a DOT approved helmet? Cause the answer is only yes if you or I can produce enough if those to prevent me getting ticket" me: "I can get one!" me: "and then give it to you in case anyone else ever wants a ride" very cool motorcycle friend: "Friend I'm very interested in this" me: "🤠" very cool motorcycle friend: "You may have to give me a bit to get good with this bike before I chuck anyone on the back seat" me: "oh absolutely" me: "there is no rush" very cool motorcycle friend: "But the answer is a definitive yes"

I met this man on the sidewalk outside of my apartment and we bonded over both being in that awkward mid-puberty stage. he also told me that he can see the future, and even though I didn't believe him, I think he believed himself.

this is a panel from a poem I like. the poem:

A subway rat made eye contact with me and said, "Join us. When the train comes, we feel it rumble over us like a warm thunderstorm. We live forever, and we long to live."
a drawing of subway rats looking up at shoes walking by. it is captioned "AND WE LONG TO LIVE"

I got stuck on this because I wish that this is actually what the news was. I also think we can all have our own little newspapers inside our own heads where we publish articles like this. we can choose to believe wonderful things. flying squirrel loves it every time.

but you asked for gay ones and the Lawrence does unfortunately feel straight. here's something a bit more lesbian
STAR BLOCK There is no such thing as star block. We do not think of locking out the light of other galaxies. It is light so rinsed of impurities (heat, for instance) that it excites no antibodies in us. Yet people are curiously soluble in starlight Bathed in its absence of insistence their substance loosens willingly, their bright designs dissolve Not proximity but distance burns us with love.

here's one D.H. Lawrence wrote when he wanted to punch a hole in the drywall but couldn't because last time he did that his mom got mad and took away the xbox for a week
THERE IS RAIN IN ME There is rain in me running down, running down, trickling away from memory. There is ocean in me swaying, swaying O, so deep so fathomlessly black and spurting suddenly up, snow-white, like snow-leopards rearing high and clawing with rage at the cliffs of the soul then disappearing back with a hiss of eternal salt rage; angry is old ocean within a man.

You are a calf, and you will find your mama by listening for her voice, looking for her scent, and following your instincts. Your mama will also find you by using her sense of smell and by recognizing your unique sounds. You can try calling out or listening for her call, and she will likely find you because she knows where she left you.

screenshot of a YouTube video. there is a kitten crouched up against the corner of a wall. he's all puffed up. he has airplane ears. he is very grumpily eating cat food. he wants you to know that this DOESN'T MEAN YOU'RE FRIENDS NOW. the closed captions read "I know you're trying to be a tough guy. but you don't have to be."

a screenshot of a website FAQ section: Community Q&A Question Can I name them? Community Answer Yes, you could name your water bears. However, it would most likely not be recommended with more than one tardigrade, seeing as they are almost identical, and you would most likely get them mixed up. Maybe you could give them all the same name.
