Suki

I’m watching BoJack Horseman again, eating cold pizza, looking at a stack of PS4 games from 2019. Suki, meanwhile, is living.

She’s a cat. Orange, travels the world with her red-haired owner—by car, canoe, boat. Through mountains, along lakes, across fields. The kind of adventure people talk about doing before they don’t.

What I like about Suki is she’s not performing travel. She’s just in it. New vehicles, new places, new landscapes. No strategy, no curation, just a cat doing what her owner is doing. There’s something true in that.

It makes you feel static. The cat is out there and you’re here. I could pack a bag. People do this all the time. But knowing you could and actually getting in the car are different things. Suki gets in the car.
