Yesterday I bought a jumbo wand of bubbles on sale at Joann Fabrics when I picked up my candle making supplies.

Just now, I released a wand or two of bubbles while standing on the subway platform. A second later, a young Black woman got my attention, pulled a small bottle of bubbles out of her bag, smiled and blew a few soapy spheres into the breeze.

Don’t be afraid to be whimsical.

@mckra1g all those soapy bubbles on the track will cause the train to slide past the platform trying to brake!

🫧 There would have 🫧 to be a LOT of bubbles 🫧 to reduce the braking 🫧 capacity of a train. 🫧

I believe a few people 🫧 blowing bubbles would be no impediment. 🫧

@mckra1g Oh that is great! Total greatness. 💜
@mckra1g That's so cool. Thx for the smile.

Years ago, on a Seattle bus - someone got on with a big roll of bubble-wrap. She announced she'd been having an awful day, but was working through it with the bubble-wrap, and was happy to share - and everyone on the bus ended up de-stressing with lengths of bubble-wrap to pop...
@mckra1g BUBBLES For Teh Winz!!!
@mckra1g many many years ago I bought a necklace with a pendant that was a small bubble canister, and I would occasionally just blow a few bubbles. I do miss having that kind of whimsy in my life.
@mckra1g Yeah people claim that but as soon as I start pissing in a trash bin everyone suddenly turns bourgeoisie.

@mckra1g
World, whimsy us all, now.

And not with this bad joke of a Supreme Court

@mckra1g @MsHearthWitch That’s awesome! Spread joy (and bubbles) everywhere you go!

@mckra1g

I read about Bubbles frequently. On Questionable Content.

@mckra1g

Novels hope to have such meaningful charm, hope to introduce characters so informatively.

Contented excitement, silly courage.

I'll hold this for a while.
