FedEx: shits on my box, stomps on my box, kicks it, dumps gasoline on it, throws one of my chickens into the back of the van

UPS: whispers at my front door “is anyone home” as quietly as possible before leaving a “we missed you!” note, tries to gaslight me into thinking my address doesn’t exist

USPS: sets my package down gently where it’s not visible from the road, knocks on the door and kisses me directly on the mouth

Is this…shipping discourse?

Amazon once threw a package at my door and then took a photo while it was midair. Not sure where that fits in this schema but I did want to tell y’all about it.

The trees at Slope Point look like they’re being permanently blown over by strong gusts of wind - because they usually are.

The winds at the southern tip of New Zealand’s South Island are so fierce that the trees sheep farmers plant to protect their flocks end up growing sideways from getting blown over so often.

Okay. Come on, then. I love you, get up, we are going to keep going. Repeat this to yourself in a mirror or in a whisper or in the shower or in a shout. I love you, get up, keep going.

I am tired too. It’s okay. We will sleep in the car ride over. We will sleep on each other’s shoulders. We will sleep upside down and in the laps of new friends and on the bellies of our lovers and in the hands of better tomorrows. We will sleep and we will wake up rested and we will wake up happy and we will wake up home again.

I love you, get up. It’s time to write “maybe next time” on our gravesite. It’s time to write: it could not kill me, I would not die. It’s time to write a love letter to the sun and our one-act play and the history of our keychains. It is time to write a future where despite everything, we are finally warm and safe.

I love you. I love you. I love you.

Get up. Keep going. We are going to be okay.

White Women Wednesday

I can’t stop watching this video. This is my favorite thing. The totally incorrect shotgunning. The fact that there’s no reason for the woman on the left to take a step in the direction that she did. The other woman’s immediate reaction to shut off the phone first before even helping her friend. The fact that they don’t say a word or make a sound the whole time. This is a masterpiece.

I think the amogi (plural for amogus) are larval tellytubbies

@elodieunderglass

It’s unlikely. as you already know from my extensive original research on the topic, the teletubbies themselves are toddlers, with the fully adult creatures being giant, antlered cryptids. We can see in the shape of their faces, body proportions, and speech development that the teletubbies are young children; we know from the appearance of the existing baby teletubbies on their show (the Tiddlytubbies) that they develop similarly to humans. Note how the tiddlytubbies resemble human babies in the 6-12 month stage of development. They sit independently, babble, are expressing early interest in toys, and have developing antler buds. They are already filling the life stage that the “larval amogi” would inhabit, while expressing child-appropriate skills and behaviours, which I believe the amogi do not.

When compared with the older cohort of captive Teletubbies, it’s clear that the Tiddlytubbies are what’s classed in childminding circles as “tiny tots” while the older ones are closer to “preschoolers,” mapping to a human aged about 3. As we know from my well-documented prophetic dream, the elders of the species are dozens of feet tall, with complex and developed antlers, long shaggy fur, facial proportions resembling adult humans, and clearer ability to transmit and receive electronic signals.

As a piece of evidence supporting my thesis that the Teletubbies are children, I have the following quote from a BBC representative. This was an official statement from the BBC in response to accusations that Tinky Winky, who is addressed with male pronouns and carries a handbag, is gay. The BBC responded: “Tinky Winky is simply a sweet, technological baby with a magic bag.“

The BBC has stated that the sexual orientation of the (tallest, largest) captive Teletubby on record is unknown/unknowable, because this creature is too young to express itself. It has not reached maturity. In short, the older captive Teletubbies are explicitly confirmed to still be “babies.”

Given that the Tiddlytubbies are babies and the Teletubbies are, at best, toddlers - it would be evolutionarily unreasonable to insert a proposed larval form before the “tiny tot” stage, as tiny tots themselves are a larval form. Instead, I propose that the amogi may have convergently evolved to mimic the appearance of young teletubbies, possibly to escape predation; but there is no evidence of shared habitats to suggest that this would confer any benefit. However, I’m aware that the amogi frequently harbour brood parasites themselves, so it could just be one of those things, like how evolution generates hedgehogs and crabs - plugging evolutionary gaps via the shortest possible route, with no greater meaning attached. Morphology does not predict phylogeny.
