i’m on a teams meeting and the speaker is talking about inclusion and what not and he says, “…supportive environment for LBT–No. LBTG. Hold on. L. G. T–There are a lot of letters going on here. LGBTQA. Lots of letters. We support all these letters. Oh, and there’s a plus. We support all of those letters plus more!”
Okay but Julian and Miles being like, “no we can’t let anyone come to the holosuites with us, that’s for us” just sealed the deal that they are riding horses and making flower crowns and their basket weaving is legendary.
Julian and Mile’s viking program?? That’s just sailing and going to the flea market.
Fighter pilot program? They just like to fly a little plane
like sure you could say they’re fucking but let’s be real, would Miles normally?
I went to close the coop earlier but the hens didn’t feel like going home just yet, so I told them they could forage for ten more minutes before bedtime. When I returned (expecting to find them huddled inside, say good night, and close the door) they were standing by the door, looking like they didn’t dare to go in. There was a bird in their coop. A non-chicken bird. It was flying chaotically the way trapped birds do, crashing into every wall, somehow unable to stumble through the wide open door. The hens were staring at it with total stupefaction. The three of us stood there watching the bird and feeling awkward before it occurred to me to open the trap door over the nesting boxes, and it finally managed to fly out through this larger opening. The hens immediately entered their coop, climbed the little ladder to get inside and started the delicate process of choosing which perch to settle on tonight—while clucking to each other nonstop. I bet they’re still talking about it. They saw a fellow bird choose to leave the safety of the coop and fly away into the forest right as the sun was setting. Just about the craziest thing a bird could do. I started walking home and I could still hear their clucks of disbelief inside the coop the whole time.
I’m still thinking about that one Vegas panel, where Sid was talking about fearing being kicked off the show, but mid-story he looks in the crowd, grins, and goes “Hi, Irene” with a little wave, and Andy is so amazed going “wow, nice eyes!” Because apparently Irene (Andy’s wife) is far off but Sid spotted her and just lovingly grins at her. Like, even with his glasses Andy gives a little squint, he’s so in awe of it.
