    I’m having shitty sticky thoughts after a recent nightmare, so whilst I engage in some mindfulness, here are some memes to make light of the situation. Also fun fact - yesterday a lecturer said in a talk about sheep digestive systems that the word rumination means to chew the cud. Sheep and cows are ruminants.

      Ah good all Latin, condensing “to chew the cud” into “ruminate”. Funnily, it seems it’s origins beyond Latin are unknown/debated; I’m used to words being traced to PIE or another proto-language, so it’s always so interesting when a words possible ultimate etymology is unknown.

      It’s okay to have those sticky thoughts after our brains decided to traumatise us through our dreams. We love you, and if you need to chat or vent then my DMs are open always. 💜💜 Sending you good vibes 💜💜
