if a wealthy lord and his lady offered me to join their relationship, live with them in their big castle, let the lord hunt food for me and the lady gift me books and paint portraits of me and also let the both of them caress my face tenderly and kiss me softly –– i’d say yes immediately. rip to sir gawain but i’m different (not stupid)
So there are several species of frogs that have evolved to be so small that their vestibular balance system doesn’t work well and I’m sorry but it’s the funniest thing to watch them try to jump.
Going to add something here as a few people in the notes don’t know the significance of the date here, or think this might be a dig at Sesame Street somehow - on November 18th, 2003, there was an absolutely landmark legal case in the state of Massachusetts that ruled that civil unions in that state needed to be given the same rights as marriage. This was HUGE - gay marriage was not legally recognized in any state at the time, and civil unions were the closest you could get. This is a WONDERFULLY hopeful, sweet comic drawn five whole days after an enormous, major step forward for gay marriage POSSIBLY being legal. Massachusetts wouldn’t even properly legalize gay marriage until May 2004, and it was the first state to do so.
You can Google Goodridge v Department of Public Health for more details.
