I’ve forgotten this sometimes but being able to discover something you like, curate it, and make time to enjoy it *is* intelligence, connecting with art is intelligence, empathy is intelligence, the way of the dullard is to find nothing meaningful in art except for a way to seem snidely clever

Oh wow, a whole year! 🥳 I’m so glad it’s given you something to look forward to each day - finding moments of joy like this is so important!

Here’s to another year of Deadpools (and hopefully some more cameos from Jeff the Land Shark!) ☺️❤️

Ohhh he’s gorgeous!! 😭 Congratulations on your gecko baby, you must be such a proud parent 😂

Ooh exciting, very VERY happy birthday!! 🥳🎉 And yay for sunshine and wildlife! I hope you have some lovely celebrations lined up ☺️❤️

As for me, I had great fun at the Izzy Agony Aunt event yesterday - some of the wisdom he shared really hit home for me, and I came out of it with so much positivity 😁

Haha yes, IDK it doesn’t often get mentioned in these things but I’ve always thought it’s extremely underrated - some of its passages are really beautiful, and there’s an emotional rawness to it that I just find so engaging!

idk man I love this weird little asshole who's so grumpy when he's under stress and really thrives when he's in a safer, healthier environment. I love that he's loved despite his anxieties and uptightness and difficulties in accepting that life could be better.
