I have spotted a blue tree, out there in the wild.

Well, I say blue but really I don’t know what colour it actually is - I’m colourblind, so it could easily be purple or something, or pink. It’s cute though. There’s all this green and brown and vague shades of yellow in the foliage, and then there’s a splash of blue. Very nice.

You know what else is blue? The sky. There are no clouds, so it really is just blue. It’s so fucking hot, man. It’s just, it’s melting over here. I’m dripping with sweat and every movement costs me double the energy. It’s crushing. Somehow, though, I’m pretty sure it fucking HAILED last night! HAIL! Can you believe it? I heard the ice striking my freaking window man, it woke me up. It was a little scary, frankly, but I was a big boy and didn’t shiver too much. I foresee a nightmare, tonight.

Naturally, there is absolutely 0 chance in hell that I can wear anything other than the lightest possible clothes. Shorts and a T.

Actually, today I thought about my shirts. I’ve mentioned this in previous posts, but it really upsets me that I have so many shirts I don’t like. What I’m not sure I’ve mentioned is that about 90% of the shirts I do wear are Hard Rock Cafe shirts. I’ve traveled a bit all over Europe and collected quite a few shirts from a bunch of different cities. I don’t know how many I actually own, but if I had to estimate I’d say about 15. That’s enough shirts, period. Of course, they’re mostly just white with a yellow circle and the name of a city, with the exception of a couple of them - Budapest, London, and Malta (yes, it says Malta) - that have some slight variation to them. My favourite one is Budapest, in case you’re curious, which also happens to be the most recent addition to the collection. It’s my favourite because of the design though - the Liberty Statue; it’s really beautiful.

I mention this because, ordinarily, I loathe branding. I get why brands do it, of course, and I don’t necessarily hate it to the point of being sickened by it and unable to wear anything with the slightest bit of branding, as I might’ve implied earlier in the paragraph, but it does mildly upset me if the branding is too in-your-face, so to say. Yet, it really doesn’t bother me too much when it’s Hard Rock Cafe shirts. Hypocrisy, much? Perchance.

Anyway, I’ll start crossposting to !gondaily@lemmy.dbzer0.com, and then switch to posting there.
