I would follow any newsletter your write because it is your writing that is compelling more than what you write about :)

"Truthfully, when it's 42 degrees Celsius outside we sweat a lot regardless of the amount of breasts that we possess, but whatever. Droll piece. I couldn't draw my dog this well even with my dominant hand.

1) It’s not my brain that tells me. It’s more like a feeling (constructed by said brain) tgat says, “I can’t do this anymore.” So, I do something else.

2) I love your language learning. It fascinates me. Love Shilo, too, but as a p.s. perhaps?🤔

Love your dog! An additional challenge would be draw him using Arabic calligraphy

Now THAT's interesting. I can imagine drawing my dog in the style of Chinese characters (that would be Chinese brush painting I guess...). I'll have to think what it would look like using Arabic calligraphy :)

Great article. My Twyla Scrumperdinger has learned to slap me with her paw when she feels a need to get my attention/stop me from doing something.

She will also steal anything at all, wiggle like a crazy thing, and wait for me to chase her to get it off her.

My dog, Shiloh, usually tells me when it’s time to take a break. Sometimes it’s her paw on my leg, a nudge with her nose, or the “look!”

Dogs are great that way.

OMG is your dog also name Shiloh!?! Turns out it's a common dog name :)
