Well then I guess I relate with Polly even harder.

That being said, no worries to be had here. Birds not dead as bird wasn't real. Not fully anyway. It's from that godawful Sandler movie, Jack and Jill. The movie has a real bird but for this shot they put it in the fountain using CGI.

Polly safe. All good.

Stamets, you've been kinda making a lot of self harm jokes and I just want you to know that a lot of people here, we really like you, and you make us smile and we'd be awful sad to lose you or see you hurt. So if you ever need someone to talk to send me or one of these kind souls a message because there's all kinds of friendships and you're my Funny Internet Friend™ and friends listen.

I'll be fine. Just dealing with some stressful stuff and the holidays are not a good time for me. Thanks though <3

I can really relate. My mood tanks everytime I see a reminder of the holidays. I used to have a friend who was also estranged from his family, and we'd be grumpy arseholes together over Christmas.

Hope you get through it OK, this place wouldn't be the same without you.
