| I’m very strongly into the music from that hedgehog video. Maybe if we all listen to it enough times, everything else will go away. | |

| Actually, you know what? I can’t recommend this enough as a coping strategy. When you start liveblogging animals, you’re angry and hurt. But then the animals start to make you happy, and you forget about the troubles of the world. And then the animals make you angry, because they’re a distraction from all the real problems. But then comes the breakthrough. After five hours of embedding an endless barrage of animal tweets into a liveblog, you become so worn down that you just stop caring. Do your worst, Trump. I can’t feel any more. | |

| This might be a dog in a hat. Honestly, I haven’t blinked for the last four and a half hours and my eyeballs are drying up. No idea any more. | |

| I don’t think I’ve embedded this yet. I’m so confused. I feel like the guy at the end of 2001, but with baby animals instead of the universe. | |

| Finally, an actual comfort. This is amazing, and I didn’t even know I needed it. The Things Organised Neatly Tumblr. Go there and scroll until all of this goes away. | |
| @stuheritage i find this very soothing, especially in unpredictable and chaotic times https://t.co/7LVD1LA0rY | |

| I just searched on Twitter. Roughly once every three seconds, someone new around the the world is tweeting “Orange is the new black”. That’s a comfort, isn’t it? All these people, believing in their hearts that they’re the first person to think of the exact same joke. Talk about happiness. | |
