It’s such an odd feeling when you feel sadness about someone you don’t know like that. The feelings are real and valid and definitely *there* but also I know the “but I didn’t actually know them do I really get to be sad about this” vibe I get. Good people on the internet are rare and to be treasured.

Also it must be so intense to receive so many intense messages from people. I did consider messaging you with the following very important piece of information I learnt the other day but decided against it. But here it is: Bandit (Blueys dad) is an archeologist!? I feel like I’m the last to know this but in a ridiculous world of rubbish news (as you have mentioned here) I am very excited a cartoon dog dad is a scientist.

PS I’m worried I’m consuming the wrong emu content now.

Oh God, I hadn't seen the news about Leslie Jordan. He was such a ray of sunshine! 'Hello, fellow hunker downers' will forever be an expression that cracks me up. How sad :(

I haven’t heard of this man and I can’t find the videos Emily is talking about. Can someone please link me?

Relatable ♡ I just cried my eyes out after finishing the final season of derry girls, how can a show that brought me so much joy and deep belly laughter be over?

I started watching Leslie in the pandemic too. My intro video was the one where he says “it’s still March?! How many days in March???!!!” - that 2020 March that felt like it stretched on forever. In my head he swore in the above statements but I can’t be sure if that’s accurate now 😳 you’re right though, he certainly was a balm to the weary soul 😮‍💨😭
