As I fight mightily not to openly weep in the busy coffee shop, I realize that I probably should've stayed home to finally read "What Any Dead Thing Wants" by @aimeeogdenwrites.com whilst listening to "The Great Divide" by Noah Kahan on loop. 🥲
But what a beautiful story, omg.

Further bird research has enlightened me. I’m hearing wooing calls from the bachelor doves, not pairs. So my YT broadcast of dove cooing is less a love triangle and more “Hey toots, nice tufts! You wanna come sit up on my perch! 😘”
Love in all its splendors, amirite?

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! I'm sitting on my back porch in a pile of blankets with my dogs. We can hear our pair of mourning doves calling to one another.
I got worried I had the species wrong as I typed that, so I pulled up a YT video.
I fear I might have started a love triangle.

Yeah Roberta Bobbie W Draper GIF
Alt: Bobby from The Expanse all geared up in her space/battle suit. She’s holding on to metal bars on each side of her inside a ship as she rocks back a bit and cries out triumphantly, the lights on her visor shining bright.

Liked Bad Bunny's halftime show? My very short story 12 THINGS A TRINI SHOULD KNOW BEFORE TRAVELLING TO A BACK-IN-TIMES FETE, is a list story about Trinbagonian Carnivals past, present & future.
And there's a Spanish translation!

I post this link merely as a cultural curiosity and not so that anyone could print one if, say, whistles were banned. Obviously that would be wrong.
