I AM NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANY MORE. I AM GOING TO TAKE THIS A LITTLE WHILE LONGER. I'LL TAKE AS MUCH OF THIS AS I CAN POSSIBLY BEAR. OUR HOUSE IS A LOVELY SOUTHWESTERN RANCH. OUR HOUSE WOULD BE A LOVELY SOUTHWESTERN RANCH IF IT HAD A ROOF. WE HAVE NO HOUSE. YOU ARE LOVELY BEYOND COMPARE. YOU ARE NOT WHAT YOU USED TO BE. YOU HAVE REALLY LET YOURSELF GO, LET YOURSELF GO, LET YOURSELF GO. IT'S EASY TO GET OUT IF YOU JUST BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. YOU CAN GET OUT IF YOU'RE COMMITTED TO THE EFFORT. THERE ARE NO WINDOWS OR DOORS AND THE WALLS ARE ON FIRE. I LOVE YOU. I LOVED YOU. YOU CAN'T MAKE ME LEAVE. DRIVE OUT TO THE AIRPORT. TAKE THE TRAIN DOWN HERE IF YOU GET A CHANCE. STAY WHEREVER THE HELL YOU ARE. STAY WHEREVER THE HELL YOU ARE. TAKE THE TRAIN DOWN HERE IF YOU GET A CHANCE. DRIVE OUT TO THE AIRPORT. YOU CAN'T MAKE ME LEAVE. I LOVED YOU. I LOVE YOU. THERE ARE NO WINDOWS OR DOORS AND THE WALLS ARE ON FIRE. YOU CAN GET OUT IF YOU'RE COMMITTED TO THE EFFORT. IT'S EASY TO GET OUT IF YOU JUST BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. YOU HAVE REALLY LET YOURSELF GO. YOU ARE NOT WHAT YOU USED TO BE. YOU ARE LOVELY BEYOND COMPARE, BEYOND COMPARE, BEYOND COMPARE. WE HAVE NO HOUSE. OUR HOUSE WOULD BE A LOVELY SOUTHWESTERN RANCH IF IT HAD A ROOF.

Old and imposing marlin taxidermy, fishing trophy around 1920.

Was used as a sign in a tavern in the north of France.

Taxidermy of good quality, formerly presented on an oak badge sheathed with a rope.

Good state of conservation for a room of this type and period.

3 seconds into dungeon meshi and they’re already living my dream. i love eating things I ought not in unfamiliar ecosystems

one time in undergrad we went to this big farm & greenhouse where they were cultivating rare & endangered plants and during the tour the botanist let us all taste a leaf off of a particular plant & I was like oh some of these are edible!

so we got to the next plant and when he took questions I asked if it was also edible and he said “I mean. It’s not poisonous, but I’m sure it won’t taste good.” I asked if I could try it anyway and it seemed like he was just perplexed enough to indulge me so he gave me one leaf. It was terrible.

At the next plant he offered me a leaf before I asked and he wanted to know what it tasted like

For the rest of the tour he gave me a leaf from each non-poisonous plant and I told him how they all tasted (mostly like nothing at all but some unspeakably terrible) and that’s how I ate several dozen rare & endangered leaves.

So anyway. I’m a fan of this blonde guy already. I think we’d be friends

I get this a lot. Incidentally I bet if I grew leaves everyone would want to eat one to see what I taste like

i think that sometimes the best thing that you can do is remind yourself that there are beaches. lakes, rivers, and ponds. there are forests. little woods and meadows. there are canyons. gullies and mountain cliffs. there are rainy days. dry spells and scorching blue skies. that the world turns. changes as much as it repeats. that feeling slow today won't stop tomorrow's high tide. won't make july's blackberries any less ripe
