So here's my reminder folks: life is an absolute mess and nothing is promised. So be kind. Fight for those you care for. And love. Love yourself and love those who matter to you. On your hard days, I'll do my best to love you more, bc I know one day, you'll do the same

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

@feralhogstan Appreciate you 🫡

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

And now they're suggesting I bring the Florida man down with me? Like that won't be stressful enough for *a day* trip

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

My family: why can't you visit us in Philly
Me: are you willing to cover my week of not working, cat care, and travel? No?

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

@PokemonGems Home is where the Horse(a) is

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

Me, frustrated and angry after a long day: WHY DOES EVERYTHING IS BAD
*alarm boops on phone to take meds and drink water*
Me: ...oh right.

i don’t think making honest mistakes defines your character. i think how you choose to handle the consequences of your mistakes defines your character.

Sometimes friendship is yeeting candy and ice pops at your friend after work when you're already burnt out from people-ing and understanding it isn't personal. Just tired supportive Kal vibes~

I just liked the chances of having a fresh Belgian waffle with concerning amounts of sweets. I didn't even do coffee at this point in time. Just. Wild.

Sometimes I get lost in the wormhole that is wanting my born family to approve and accept me. But then I remember how they were absolutely convinced that the only reason I wanted to go to school early in senior year of high school was to hook up with my boyfriend.

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

Looking back just trying to comprehend the idea that they believed I was willing to wake up at 6am, be on the bus by 615, hook up with him, then be at school by 8am before first period?

this feraligatr statue is so cool

When you're struggling to endure all the horrors, but it's also Pride Month.

I may have mistaken my son for my leg pillow while waking up and almost punted him like I was trying to hit the game winning field goal. The Florida man is not pleased.

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

Today's straw that tipped the scales and yeeted my positive mindset: my glasses (only a few months old) have now broken.

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

I'm holding on by a thread currently after this sit com of a week I've had.

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

My glasses broke. I got them a few months ago. What else does a gay gotta do to manifest an emotional break

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

@Marisa_Ingemi Same 😔 my love of sports is hard to maintain lately because of how many financial hoops I'd have to clear just to watch pixelated af quality of my favorite team play

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

@quiddie A+ summary about these two characters!!! But also my brain just focused on the fact that Deanna is technically stronger than lvl 17 Fjord at this point and by the time she'd get to his level he'd absolutely be able to suplex him no issue 😂

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

Anyway. This has been Kal's vaguely chaotic brain thinking about a potential PowerPoint presentation where I rank my favorite modern cryptids - professional sports mascots.

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

One thing I've really noticed about Boston is that they don't have sports mascots that simultaneously induce fear and awe in your general population.

[Kal Stays Whelmed @KADoesThings]

Gritty, the Phanatic, and Swoop all have my respect for various reasons growing up a Philly kid. (Yes Gritty is relatively newer but I stand by the belief we got the lovably unhinged mascot we deserved at this point in time.)
