when your friend borrows your phone and you gotta prepare yourself for the “what the heck why this in a different language”
Dark times all around but there are still people out there who love you
Do not hurt yourself, do not hurt others, get help, talk to someone, anyone. Humanity has survived before and we can do it now if we all just support each other. My country and my people let me down and endangered my life but there’s nothing I or anyone else can do about that so let’s try to spread the love that is so clearly lacking.
someone: do you speak french
me: I have seen a few scenes of that candlestick speaking in beauty and the beast
