It might be the most middle-aged thing I’ve ever done, but I joined a dragon boat paddling team with a bunch of teachers and I’m obsessed. The boats look like carousel animals! So many magical things about paddling in sync with 30 other people, being out on the water, seeing eagles and blue herons, plus a core workout as good as the Pilates reformer. It’s the freaking best!

I don't mean minorities or anything like that. I mean the most insane communities you've ever seen and were completely unaware of. Last year I discovered the Mermaid Community 💀
Everything started when this video popped up. I thought it was a parody until I looked at the comments. The comments in this video are things like "I find it hard when fellow Mers tell me how “lucky” I am to have a professional pirate to gig with. It’s not luck, I found him through hard work and pay him well. I also have fellow Mers telling me how “lucky” I am to have a pool that allows me to train in my Monofin. Again…hard, hard work and a lot of time to build up that working relationship"
...like, people are investing time and money in being mermaids. Look at this mermaid posing . Apparently she saved for a whole year to get the tail, besides "studying character design and color just to make sure it was perfect" according to her. Fascinating. I didn't know this was a thing with adults 💀

The other day I overheard a young skater tell their friends, “if you can’t be good, be safe!”
I love this -- it sounds good in Spanish ("cuidate") too.
Maybe it's just age, but I've become fond of telling people to "be good."
It's intentionally vague -- it could just be a grammatically poor version of "be well"
Or it could be a suggestion to behave yourself (ish).
It doesn't explain itself and that's my favorite part.
