you’ve flung the worst fear
that can ever be hurled
a fear to bring children
into the world
for threatening my baby
unborn and unnamed

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

still amazing to me the number of movies, games, etc. which have Venus Flytrap-based creatures in some form compared to the actual native range of Venus Flytrap, which is like, the great untamed jungles of a few wet pine savannas in North Carolina

My neighbor told me the argentine economy keep eating his $20 billion loans so I asked how many loans he has and he said he just goes to the US and gets a new loan afterward so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding loans to the argentine economy and then his daughter started crying.
