Listen,
Snuggling as a dragon
Is better than as a human
Scales arent fur, but the texture is fantastic
Wings to hug with, tails to toy with
A large snout to rub and pat
How could you
Not want that
Being large makes everyone
A small stuffed toy
To hug and protect
Radiating like a hearth,
Safe and warm
Last night I instinctively closed the lid on my laptop, forgetting the updates were still running.
This morning I got up to this 🤦♂️
Thankfully, the actual updates just continued where they left off. No harm done.
I do love #Linux 😁
What if I sat on top of a cop car with a carrot on a stick…
