Harmless

The internet is mostly garbage—porn, hate, monkeys pissing in their own mouths. But then you find CuteBreak, this pocket of pure nothing. Kittens sneezing. Sloths wanting scratches. Puppies with that blank dumb expression. For a moment you forget everything—the boss, the bad breakup, whatever ripped you off earlier today.

There’s something about that simplicity. It’s the internet working the way it should sometimes.

The kid-pranking thing though—I’m still not sure. Making your little brother think you’re selling him. Roseanne did it constantly. The whole show was people messing with each other and nobody died. But television isn’t real life. I don’t know if that makes any of it okay.

Still. Cute animals, mild pranks, little harmless things. It beats what else is out there.
