Everything is falling apart on earth and in my country and I don’t know how to fix it.
I used to tutor Saudi international students in English. Their apartments always smelled of oud smoke. I loved it. It smelled clean, rich, and almost poetic. When one friend returned to his home and family for the summer, he brought me back a little gold box of oud chips. I still have it.
I associate oud with friendship, especially vital friendships across cultures and nations.

So THATS what that fucking ugly ass thing is in Animal Crossing.
I was introduced to this gin on a trip to Canada years ago. I still have a bit left. I wish I could find it in the USA.

Send all police trainees to social work school.
What a world that would be.
