Hi y'all!
So I've spent this morning at Adelaide zoo seeing Australia's only pandas, Wang Wang and fu-ni
I'd love to send you 1 of 5 panda postcards, perhaps you prefer cute a meerkat postcard (only 1) or how about a dusty leaf monkey postcard? (Only 1)
First come, first serve, just comment below :)
Have a great day! :)
There is nothing inherently sinister about the underpass in the city centre.
Not in the daytime, anyway. It’s simply a convenient route for pedestrians who need to cross the busy road above; mostly professionals in suits and people wishing to visit the park or museum. Sure, it’s always a bit cold inside, the walls are covered in graffiti, and the floor is perpetually damp, but at least the council have tried to brighten it up with murals depicting scenes from the city’s history. If you walked through the underpass in broad daylight, you’d never think there was anything to be scared of.
Even in the dark, it’s no more unsettling than any other pedestrian underpass in any other city. Maybe the harsh fluorescent lights make the place seem slightly eerie, but the only danger you’re likely to encounter is another human being who has had too much to drink- if you even encounter anyone at all. You see, most locals avoid that underpass at night because of a decades-old superstition:
That it was built on a gateway to Hell.
I don’t know how it started, but the legend has apparently surrounded the underpass ever since it was built in the 1960s. Generations of teenagers have dared each other to walk through that chilly, damp tunnel in the dark, all of them reporting an inexplicable feeling of dread that gripped them as soon as they set foot inside.
Personally, I never believed there was anything wrong with the underpass. It was just another urban myth. Every town has one. Of course, there have been plenty of missing persons cases over the years, but that’s to be expected in a city of this size, and very few of them could be definitively linked to the underpass. It wasn’t until September 2018, when I was out celebrating my twenty-first birthday, that I was forced to accept there may be some truth to the stories.
The night had started off perfectly. My friends and I had pre-drinks at my house before heading into the city centre by train, and I was feeling nicely buzzed by the time we arrived at our favourite nightclub. We’d frequented that particular place ever since we turned eighteen, mostly because the drinks were cheap and it was usually lively whatever day of the week it was. That night was no exception; it was Friday, and people were packed in like sardines.
My best friend Chloe and I left the others on the dancefloor while we squeezed our way through the solid blockade of people surrounding the bar. Someone in front of me turned to move away after receiving

The High council had finished the meet and greet. Now they were curious about why the Terran Emperor would need them to clear a space to warp his fleets into the system. There was plenty of open space around... It is literally called space. Then there was the fact that he was asking for a bubble of 3 AU to be cleared of anything we deem important. Why did he need such a large space? The fleet in the video they had watched was certainly not 3 AU worth of space... But, they cleared the space anyways. They cleared a position close to their main world, Hella.
Hella was home to 23 billion souls, most of which liked to observe the beautiful night sky. That's when a few noticed a new star dotting the sky. Red and twinkling in the sky, curious observers looked on in wonderment as the new star began to spiderweb out at an alarming pace, the spiderwebbing star then produced a distant sound that could barely be heard from within the atmosphere of the world. But those who could hear it knew fear. The sound was as if the universe itself was being rended and torn into bits. The sound was like nails on a chalkboard while at the same time being deep and bassy. It was as if the very natural laws of their universe were screaming in agony. Several billion people began screaming that the world was ending as the little spiderweb in the sky slowly dissipated. Most had thought it to be the Razeri coming to stoke the long cold embers of war, but not one individual.
Captain Vrillex was celebrating Raiala's birthday when he stepped outside to get some air and stared up at the night sky. That's when he noticed the spiderwebbing red dot in the sky. Vrillex ran inside and frantically yelled out " THE TERRANS ARE HERE!!!! " over and over until the horrifying sound that they all recognized roared out from the heavens.
Vrillex grabbed Raiala and picked her up before trying to jog while holding a drunken woman. He only had to make it to his ship, if he could make it to the High council in time, they might yet be saved. That's when he looked up at the dot and saw that the spider webbing had receded, but there were more dots winking into existence everywhere around that first dot. Vrillex stopped and gasped. " A full invasion force... This world is doomed, I must

Mum always loved to wear sarongs (fabric wraps that go around the torso and drape downward a bit like a long skirt would), so my uncle suggested that she wear a sarong in there.
The funeral director looked a bit confused, as did some of our family members, to which my uncle added:
"What's sarong with that?"
I started laughing like an idiot. He was proud of it too. The funeral director was rather shocked. We assured her, and our more proper relatives, that Mum would've absolutely loved the joke (which is very true).
His delivery was perfect. I'll never forget the risk he took. We sometimes recall the moment as a way help cushion the blows of the grieving process.
--Edit-- I appreciate the condolences. I'm doing well and the worst is behind me and my family. But thanks :)
--Edit-- Massive thanks for all the awards and kind words. And the puns! Love 'em.
I would have a daughter
Because 10+10 is twenty and 11+11 is twenty too..
Edit: thank you for awards, I have never gotten one before. I apologize that this is a repost, I did see it on TikTok and thought that it was cute and wanted to share. In the future I will check the sub for similar content before I post anything.

True story; it even happened last night. My 5-year-old son walks up behind me and out of the blue says, "hey."
I turn to him and say, "yeah, kiddo? What's up?"
He responds, "it's dead grass."
I'm really confused and trying to figure out what's wrong and what he wants from me. "What? There's dead grass? What's wrong with that?"

He says, totally straight-faced, "hay is dead grass," and runs off.
