It’s Fat Bear Week

The most wonderful time of the year

I recently celebrated my 36th birthday. That feels old. I was chatting to my friend and she said this year doesn’t count because COVID, so I guess you could say I’m still 35. Although we’ve probably all aged several years during lockdown. It hasn’t been easy but it’s made me more grateful and has taught me to appreciate the small things. Things like getting to eat TWO pieces of chocolate peanut butter cake because it’s your birthday. I digress… but seriously that cake was amazing. And now in totally unrelated news, let’s take a look at some chonky animals and some tweets that slap way too hard.

It’s that time of year again… it’s Fat Bear Week.

COVID has taken a lot of things, but thank f&*% it hasn’t taken Fat Bear Week. Fat Bear Week is a thing and almost rivals Shark Week. Almost. It’s a bracket competition held every year by Katmai National Park in Alaska, where people vote which of the park’s brown bears has beefed itself up the most for their upcoming winter hibernation

Voting has opened, and you can get in on the action. The before and after pictures really crack me up.

Other Chonks include Fatatoulie (read the caption).

And what would a chonk animal round-up be without a raccoon?

 

These tweets are funny but also way too real #ThanksCOVID

 

 

 

    I'd love to chat to you some more.
