pretty creepy how the sun is 4.603 billion years old but still follows me around like it has a chance with me

It’s so hot today that even the breeze is warm. It feels like the earth just farted in my face

I thought in this humid weather that was the most thunderous afternoon storm I’d ever heard.
But when I looked outside it was just the bin men on my street collecting everyone’s empty wine bottles.

Comedian Bethany Black had this observation about sleeping protocol.
What sort of psychopath in this heat just goes and takes their clothes off and goes to sleep on top of the bed like they don’t give a shit about demons dragging them off to hell? A thin cotton sheet is enough to stop your soul just rising out of your body and fucking off.
