only one last wish
“please, i want to see the stars again,”
cried the fern, potted and strangled by its own roots.
“let me breathe the free air, one last time.”
“water. water please water.”
the cactus withered, unnoticed for too long.
“please. water. please.”
“don’t pick me. don’t pick me. don’t—“
the dandelion fell silent as deft fingers wove a crown of its fallen brethren.
“don’t pick me. don’t pick me.”
a single rose in a crystal vase said nothing at all.
its petals stained the water bloody.
“sunlight!”
the sunflower tried to tilt back after being twisted away from the window.
“sunlight! sunlight!”
“what did i do wrong?”
the chickweed died for the crime of being inconvenient.
“why did i have to go?”
“we’re still here! we’re still thriving!”
the forgotten garden’s chorus sang in harmony unheard.
“come harvest our crop we grew for you!”
“just the stars, before i go,”
said the fern.
a dying plant’s last wish.

They should clone wikipedia and have a blatant disclaimer at the top that it’s not being maintained for accuracy so all the gremlins who get off to wikipedia vandalism can fuck around there and keep it contained in that little sandbox to mutate and fester like a box of cannibal rats in a nuclear reactor.

More stories from hell (retail) today I was ringing up this lady and she goes oh I want to do part of this on a gift card and the rest on normal card and I go ok and then she hands me a folded piece of paper. I think oh OK it must be folded around the gift card, right? Wrong. It is a folded sheet of 8×11 printer paper with "$40" written on the inside in ballpoint pen. I go what is this. She says a gift card. I say this is not a gift card. She says yes it is. I say this is a piece of paper with "$40" written on it. She says "well it's a gift card." I say it absolutely is not. I am grinding my teeth. She says well I want to use it. I say you physically cannot do that bc it is a piece of paper. I cannot scan or swipe it. I apologize, as if this is my fault, and not because she is completely insane. I hate it here

Kind of hilarious to me how poorly the title "Mob Psycho 100" localized to English-speaking areas. To someone whose first language is English, it scans as:
Mob (Yakuza, Mafia)
Psycho (violent person with "crazy" behaviors)
Thus: a particularly violent member of organized crime.
But in Japanese it scans as:
Mob (background characters in crowd scenes in manga or anime)
Psycho (short for psychic)
Thus: a psychic who looks/acts like someone you'd never pick out of a crowd scene in a comic.

The current state of pop girlies is so funny like
Ariana Grande: getting dragged for homewrecking with the guy who played SpongeBob in the SpongeBob musical
Taylor Swift: dropping her worst album in years about how deeply obsessed she is with Matty Healy
Billie Eilish, for some reason:
