Holy crap. I’m not sure if anyone else has been suffering these past few weeks from an emotional onslaught of just plain terribleness, but there have been many people who have been telling me they’ve had the worst week(s) ever. It’s people from all across my life from all different groups, and I hear you.
This collective suffering is apparently due to the mythical phenomena called Astrology, more particularly “Mercury in retrograde.” It’s hard for me to completely believe in astrology as any form of concrete science for the simple fact that it’s just not, however, I do find that this particular week has been rough on everyone and wonder if there is something greater at play. Maybe it’s true? NOPE. Still can’t do it, but I did want to share some fun facts and cute videos because we could all use a pick me up once in a while. So, without further ado, here are some things that will hopefully put a smile on your face and make you nod in understanding, as you traverse the tumultuous ocean that is your feelings.
Gifs.
When you’re just like, NAH.
When you’re just like, hell yeah!
Then you’re like, oh hell nah.
Every year, hundreds of new trees grow because of squirrels forgetting where they buried their nuts.
Otters hold hands when they sleep so they don’t float away from one another.
A group of pugs is called a grumble.
Norway once knighted a penguin. (The penguin’s full name is Colonel-in-Chief Sir Nils Olav)
Dolphins have names for one another.
YOU WILL SURVIVE THIS STRENUOUS TIME!!!
