Sometimes I sit in my small apartment and I hate on the young girl upstairs at the other end of the building. She’s loud, on her phone constantly, shouting into it in front of my windows.

a curiosity: Mary Toft
Recently I came across, and became obsessed with, the podcast The Weirdest Thing I Learned This Week from Popular Science. I listen to it all day while I am working my desk job and absorb fun little facts that I can use later to pretend I still know how to interact with humans. I heard... Continue Reading →
