Going to call all the spit-gobbing men out there “Hockleberry Phlegm” and send them rafting upstream on their own fluids
Returning to Bluesky to report that in the park I saw a cat in one of those backpacks, a fluffy fella named Puchka who “loves his walks”. This message is for Puchka, I hope you’re having a wonderful day
