      it’s a good thing that the oceans never left you. you carry them inside you everywhere you go. blood is salty because it’s a simulacrum of the ocean that we once surrounded ourselves with.

    I knew that sharks were always perfect. Why don’t we have a equivalent of shark-inisation (akin to carcinisation fro becoming crabs)
