I dread hearing my human preface any statement with “Human nature, being what it is…”
It’s always a signal that she’s about to say something very pessimistic. Not only that, but she’ll also be proven right.

The image is text on a dark pink background. It’s a quote attributed to Richard Feynman. I’m smart enough to know that I am dumb.
The apartment is filling up with cows again.
We’d better go to the coffee house, and then maybe the library. There isn’t adequate seating in here. ☕️ 📚
Personally, I’m more of a Jane Austen bear.
At the time, the trashy novels were fun mainly because I wasn’t supposed to read them.
Teddy, planning is everything.
Do something entertaining, which your human doesn’t ordinarily let you do.
My human used to forbid me to read potboiler novels, because she thought I was too innocent. So, when I was alone, I’d read a potboiler.
Cordially, Your Well-Read Friend,

We’re never told which person that is.
That’s why so many people have insomnia.
My human vaguely recalls discarding half a tube of Tom’s of Maine toothpaste when she heard about the mold.
No existing receipt for claiming a refund at this point, though.
She’s okay with that. No ill effects.
My human was a teenager during the 1970s, and she just calmly explains the details when a younger person doesn’t know something.
She also points out inaccuracies in the popular narratives, although she doesn’t have documentation within reach to prove anything.

I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.

MY CAT SUPPORTS HIS GAY DAD AND THE ENTIRE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY
I can attest to this.
It’s worth the aggravation, though.
Usually, I don’t hear delicate birds’ voices in my earthy city neighborhood. More often, it’s seagulls who sound mad as heck.
However, this morning, I’m hearing delicate little chirps.❤️

God bless bookstore employees having fun.
There are a couple of exciting stories about Dachshunds becoming police dogs, but my human says that sounds too unlikely.
Personally, I’ll stay in my fantasy world. It’s nicer here.
Teddy, I’m glad you’re there.
Our humans need us. Sometimes, my human comes home with the most outrageous stories about what happens in the outside world.
It’s my job to keep all of that weird stuff from finding its way into the apartment!
A couple reading in bed. She holds a thick novel he holds something much slimmer. Him "We must beware the tyranny of the long novel. Length is no barometer of literary merit." He continues"I have scoured the bookstore, looked past the fat spines and sought out perfection in the miniature!" He concludes "May not profundity dwell in the humble cottage As comfortably as in the sprawling castle?" Her, without looking up from her book, "100% agree. But you're aware that's a greetings card, right?"

I returned to the apartment this morning, after staying overnight at a neighbor’s apartment to escape my human’s bad mood from the Covid shot reaction.
She has apologized for driving me away, and I told her it’s okay.
Last night I beat my neighbor, Henry, at chess!
My human got another COVID vaccine shot yesterday.
Today, the side effects are making her sleepy, but she also feels a tad irritable.
I’d like to stay here and offer emotional support, but this is getting to be a bit much.
I’m off to the neighbor’s apartment!
Please forgive me if the following statement sounds overly pessimistic or opinionated:
Very little of what I’m seeing right now encourages confidence in the human race.
