injured kittens, tenacious wasps.
A tough week! As you know.
So, in the past month I’ve really been on Twitter a lot less. I shared a few things with you from previous weeks, but those items represent a relatively small amount of time scrolling the feed, compared with my habits from earlier this year.
This week I spent much more time there, looking for distractions and filling the in-between time left over from kitten caretaking and working. Maybe not the best place to hang out during stressful times, since it’s a forum often saturated with vitriol and doomsaying. But it certainly is distracting, and I found a few laughs there. This is all to say, I’m sharing more stuff from Twitter this week than before.
These buddies.
