Unbothered. Moisturized. Blissed Out. In My Slop. Focused. Flourishing.

Find a surface that doesn't matter if it gets messy, grab a bunch of paper and notebooks, a couple packs of cheap oil pastels, some glitter paint, water colors etc, then take 5g of mushrooms. Did that for my last birthday. I was covered in pigments and oils absolutely thrilled out of my mind. Was one of the most fun and brain relaxing things I've done

When I used to work at a summer camp, we had this mud pit behind one of the cabins where we'd bring groups who were down for it (usually the older kids). It looked exactly like this and the kids loved it.

One time we went in and a kid felt something in the mud and we pulled out a full skull of some animal. We stopped bringing the kids there afterwards, lol

I wonder if the seal is using the mud as sunscreen, similarly to how pigs do.

It also helps protect against biting insects.
