I Just... I Was Trying To Sleep, Ok? And I Am Back At My Parents' For The Summer And The Place Has Just

I just... I was trying to sleep, ok? And I am back at my parents' for the summer and the place has just been hit by a pretty heavy summer storm, so the power is a bit touch-and-go (it blinks out from time to time), and.

Like

I was trying to sleep when I was yanked awake by a series of mechanical sounds along the lines of:

```CLUNK```

- beep!!

```BAAAAAAAAAAAAA, ska-KLANK!```

- Boop👍

And for a moment I was like, WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT, but then I remembered that Dad installed a "continuity group" (that is, a battery that sits between the wall socket and the modem/router to make sure that the power fluctuating doesn't knock out our wi-fi) and an auto resetting braker (that, when tripped, tries to fix itself three times, then gives up).

And like,

Did I just witness a discussion between them????

The power went down for a split second -> the braker tripped -> the battery yelled "oi! Power's down over here! -> the breaker went, "my bad, lemme fix it" -> the battery booped in satisfaction, then turned off.

And like, I knkw that's not what happened, and they were just working indipendently. But it's so stupid, I feel oddly sentimental about this?? Like, it's machines working and all that, but that's beautiful in its own right! No?

so many creatures putting SO much effort into putting ‘special’ fluids that TOTALLY aren’t water through every organ possible to clean them so they can use them again 2 seconds later. like why not simply sit on a damp substrate and pull water through your body by evaporating the extra out pores in your leaves lmaoooo

Y'know what? Fuck it. I am a dude. I am sapphic. I love girls in a very gay way. I love boys in a very gay way. I am a guy, but not a man. A use he/him but I am not a man. I don't use she/her but I am sapphic. I have a complicated relationship with a lot of parts of my identity, and that will not change overnight, but right now what is important is that I am amazing.

I am queer and beautiful and in love. I use labels I want and reject ones I don't.
