Coyote. But nobody is a tourist in eastern South Dakota, so :(

What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?

I hate NFL in Europe games. I know Europe is not the reason that the Vikings suck ass right now. But at least they could suck ass closer to home? Idk lol I woke up like 4 minutes ago and they’re already losing to fucking Cleveland in London. So you can imagine the kind of stress I am under.

I am begging Instagram ads to stop trying to figure out what kind of boob problems I have. I didn’t know I had tiddy problems. I’ve just been comfortably ambivalent about them. But now I realize that everyone’s cans are incorrect and I am disgusting.

Instagram ad for getshapely with a person pulling a bra out of their shirt.

“When the bra that takes you from saggy to lifted is almost too affordable rn so it's almost sold out”

Instagram ad for honeylove. A woman in a blazer with no bra.

“You may have side-set boobs”

Instagram ad for getshapedly with a person in a pink shirt pointing to their breasts.

“you wanna rest your chin on them and you want to smooth out any back rolls”

Every time I flush the toilet my cat runs in to watch it and then bolts out like she has to report back to her manager
