Dumb Posts I Intended To Write But Never Got Around To Writing

Nicki Camberg 0

"bwog is scraping the bottom of the barrel for content" like duh I was going to write a post about walls
"wow bwog has really gown downhill" yeah and it's all my fault
expect a lot more magnolia bakery banana pudding content in the fall bc the two i have already written are clearly not enough
fun fact: all of these posts likely would have been riddled with typos
i am incapable of writing a post with a short title idk why
learning the word "liminal" has been the highlight of my year. idk what i means but that doesn't stop me from using it
like comment and subscribe if you want me to write these
