If I Am Very Honest
"Wherever we go, we are friends" -Sloth and Manatee
Sometimes we are more comfortable than other times. Sometimes we don't say anything, and sometimes we do. Sometimes that's totally a function of who we are with and whether we think they will understand.
Sloth and Manatee
Octopus offers the friends the chance to dimension-jump - and the Tardigrades have lots of ideas where to go. But Sloth might see it a little differently - ?
There’s a French show called "Astrid" (in France it's "Astrid et Raphaelle") about a young autistic woman who helps solve crimes. It is really a show about relationships and how people look out for each other. Because of Astrid's makeup she is direct about what she needs and what she will and won't do. The 'conversation' between her and the world shapes everyone in the show in different ways. It's is truly terrific. (We get it on the streaming service PBS Masterpiece)

"The book itself is a curious artifact, not showy in its technology but complex and extremely efficient: a really neat little device, compact, often very pleasant to look at and handle, that can last decades, even centuries. It doesn’t have to be plugged in, activated, or performed by a machine; all it needs is light, a human eye, and a human mind. It is not one of a kind, and it is not ephemeral. It lasts. It is reliable. If a book told you something when you were fifteen, it will tell it to you again when you’re fifty, though you may understand it so differently that it seems you’re reading a whole new book."
-Ursula K. Le Guin, from "Staying Awake - Notes on the Alleged Decline of Reading"
Okay! That is enough nonsense for now.
May you be there for yourself, may someone else be there for you, won't you be my neighbor? - Betsy
