“So we can believe the big ones?”
YES. JUSTICE. MERCY. DUTY. THAT SORT OF THING.

I'm sure you've heard this before and I don't want to sound like a scratched record but if you're someplace that doesn't usually get storms and cold like this one, or you've only recently moved to someplace that does, treat this fucker with the respect you would give a kaiju.

Happy birthday! I love Slippery Creatures and keep recommending it whenever I can.
Fesshole screenshot: I may have nearly knocked out my gynecologist by shooting a speculum at his head. It wasn't my fault. He made me laugh, my muscles contracted, and suddenly my twat was a cannon.
It's the Fesshole/Vagina Museum crossover event you've all been waiting for. Tons of you tagged us into this across all of our socials, asking for a fact-check. The consensus of the reply guys is that it Didn't Happen. However, this is in fact very possible. Here's why...
I really want them to lean into it and make it a special exhibit with an additional fee and tales of all the heists ever at the Louvre or an experience like a true crime wine night with pastries

PERSON 1: *What???* [caption] People here are used to them, but tides are one of the weirdest and most sci-fi elements of life on Earth.

Happy two years since season 2 of Good Omens!

It's on loop at our house. Pretty sure our little can sing half the songs already. It's so fun and catchy!
Try not to panic is the most important thing (easier said than done, I know) & then there are two options-just let it take you to where it stops (it's not usually super far out) & then swim across & back to shore or, if you can, swim across the rip (see diagram below!)-you'll feel when you're out.
