u ever hear a drum beat that changes ur life

I know it‘s supposed to be scary that there is apex predators just potentially sleeping under the surface of the snow like some kind of greek mythology monster but it just makes me laugh bc them living in holes just means polar bears just have little houses and look out of their little windows like:

Crowley: I’ve been a very bad boy.

Crowley: I don’t…..How much time do we have?
Oh god oh fuck oh shit, if they ever have Garak again in Star Trek, if they can’t have Andy play him for some reason, I need it to be Michael Sheen, because Oh My God.
me: hmm it is a nice day. as i am filled with hubris, i will go outside and sit :)
every bug in the universe at once: crawl?????? for to crawl???????
me who likes bugs a lot: darlings it’s ok to crawl but be careful of get squish
bugs who are very smart: between page of book, i will Homestead
me: i turn page now
bugs: o my folly!
me who understands how nature works: this is communal space but please do not crawl onto skin i cannot see
bugs: there is sweat in yonder shoulderblades and i must be the one who licks it
me: and i must be the one who slaps the tickles
bugs: alas, i am laid low by the salt!
