I Am Urgently Asking For Prayers For My Friend. Hes Recently Expressed To Me Suicidal Ideation And Has

I am urgently asking for prayers for my friend. He’s recently expressed to me suicidal ideation and has very likely been self-harming in the last few days, though to what extent I’m not certain.

I think things have gotten ever so slightly more stable today, but I’m not waiting until it’s too late. Please, keep him in your prayers.

I love borders. August is the border between summer and autumn; it is the most beautiful month I know.

—Tove Jansson

So I didn’t think it was possible for a fish to fall under the uncanny valley but oh boy did the gulper shark prove me wrong.

Ilya Kaminsky, from Dancing in Odessa; “Musica Humana”

On my way home from work tonight I saw a white tail doe with five fawns of varying ages. Ma’am. Those are not all yours.

"The day was beautiful, warm and clear. It was the end of August."
