real talk, I think my first dragon book was Cornelia Funke's Dragonrider and then I got super into Temeraire at 12 years old, and I really struggle getting into other dragon books because they never quite hold up to what I know is possible. Unrelatedly I know that publishing, especially YA and romance, just follows trends and pushes what's hot rn but going to a bookshop is such a frustrating experience currently

My sister got a new kitten and it immediately decided to loaf on a watermelon and bless us with this picture.

muss nur kurz betonen, wenn ich sage "ich hab noch nie ne folge germanys next topmodel angeschaut" meine ich das nicht im sinne von 'ich bin besser als andere'. kinners als ich 16 war hab ich mir mit bbc sherlock das hirn weggebrezelt. ich hab genauso viel lack gesoffen, nur andere geschmacksrichtungen

My real mother thinks that I'm running the @her-mum-offical account and says "there's too many typos"

today a classmate said “the French suck but they did give us Marie curie” and I think I fully blacked out. They will remember Maria Składowska with honors. Her pathetic French boy toy is irrelevant

My dad has bees. Today, I went to his house and he showed me all the honey he had gotten from the hives. He took the lid off a 5-gallon bucket full of honey and on top of the honey there were 3 little bees, struggling. They were covered in sticky honey and drowning. I asked him if we could help them and he said he was sure they wouldn't survive. Casualties of honey collection I suppose.

I asked him again if we could at least get them out and kill them quickly, after all he was the one who taught me to put a suffering animal (or bug) out of its misery. He finally conceded and scooped the bees out of the bucket. He put them in an empty Chobani yogurt container and put the plastic container outside.

Because he had disrupted the hive with the earlier honey collection, there were bees flying all over outside.

We put the 3 little bees in the container on a bench and left them to their fate. My dad called me out a little while later to show me what was happening. These three little bees were surrounded by all their sisters (all of the bees are females) and they were cleaning the sticky nearly dead bees, helping them to get all of the honey off of their bodies. We came back a short time later and there was only one little bee left in the container. She was still being tended to by her sisters.

When it was time for me to leave, we checked one last time and all three of the bees had been cleaned off enough to fly away and the container was empty.

Those three little bees lived because they were surrounded by family and friends who would not give up on them, family and friends who refused to let them drown in their own stickiness and resolved to help until the last little bee could be set free.

Bee Sisters. Bee Peers. Bee Teammates.

We could all learn a thing or two from these bees.

Bee kind always.
