Fireworks are pretty damn cool. Timed explosives that shoot other timed explosives into the sky that then explode in pretty patterns?

Pretty cool.

🎇🎆

@pixelpaperyarn I read e-*books* but not e-mags.

The problem is that I don't connect my Kobo to the web enough to get weekly or monthly magazines.

But I do think there's a niche for it, however small.

Why not try Ed's strawberry jacuzzi? It's not hot, but it's delcious

"the internet is a series of tubes"

"well, actually, it's kind of maybe a parallel of tubes, it's not like everybody everywhere in the world is waiting in line for everybody else to do things before they can do things"

In Vancouver and there is a fireworks festival tonight, and pride fest tomorrow. What could be better?

Bad at tooting
Bad at shooting
Good at nooting

@timgrindall Starbucks are too impersonal to be a third home though. I feel like they're more a stopover point where you know you'll be welcome

@Averly 🙏 glad you had a good time! Falling in love and having to move on is one of the most melancholy feelings in the world!

Update:

I met THE cutest little darling who stole my heart, and their name was AVERY! We played dress up, watched some movies, and had a blast together. And then...

I fell in love with their Mother. Quite possibly the greatest two days of my life, without a doubt. Just when I thought I'd be my faith in humanity was turned upside down in the best of ways.

Truly, and even if I never live to see tomorrow, I can finally say - it IS better to have love, than never having love at all.
