there's no metric scale for MH! ๐
You made me loose 3.1k potential smiles.
Mad Hummus? Or mental health?

You guys had trash cans?
I am the trash, blowing down the street
Do you want to see the most beautiful thing I've ever filmed? It was one of those days when it's a minute away from snowing, and there was this electricity in the air. You can almost hear it. Right? And this bag was just, dancing with me, like a little kid beggin' me to play with it - for fifteen minutes. That's the day I realized that there was this entire life behind things, and this incredibly benevolent force that wanted me to know that there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video's a poor excuse, I know. But it helps me remember - I need to remember. Sometimes, there's so much beauty in the world - I feel like I can't take it, like my heart is just going to cave in.
Good to use next to my weather stone! 
The weather stone is rubbish. Mine has been gone a week, and yet, there has been no tornado.
Definitely a wormhole.
That isn't a forecast... that's current conditions
It's indeed a forecast about the future, where the future is at least an infinitesimal amount of time away from the current moment.
Looking at this like that, it is probably the most accurate weather forecast on earth.
I have absolutely lost my trash can.
then you remember that it was on fire before anyway
I mightโve been the one to light it.
I lost my bin years ago. Im finally free
Bin(d)less!!
where is "garbage truck wakes me up and I realise I forgot to put out the trash again and have to rush it to the curb" ?
My mental state is that except often enough the truck driver and I are on first name basis.
Down the street
What insurance sees when you've lost your trashcan:
Client reports 5/5 on custom likert scale for emotion dysregulation
It's on fire. I'm surrounding it with stones. If this dumpster fire is how it's gonna be, I will use it for warmth.
You guys had trash cans?
I'm throwing trash out my front door.
Iโm in the neighbors yard
Woke up in the neighbors yard; hoping I just get tipped over before I end up down the street.
The SAD has pushed me from in the neighbour's yard to down the street.
This is a good scale for democratic government. The US has lost its trashcan.
Liking going from first to last and again
Down the street. The wind keeps blowing it away every time I bend over to pick it up and it keeps making me look like a huge asshole in front of the whole neighborhood
I've lost my trash can, I know it's not in my neighbor's yard, but I don't care because there is a goddamn MAGA sign in his yard and I wanna talk about what a piece of shit he is.
