Hey, animal fam, we have a quick question for you - does anyone know how to turn off their brain? Not for furever, just for a few minutes so we can relax a little bit. It's exhausting always thinking about something, right? After this, we need to do that, but not before we do that, and we should do this while we're on the way to do that because that belongs in this place and we're going there anyway. Sound familiar? If so, you're probably an overthinker like us.

We have a couple of techniques that work for us (sometimes). One is when we go out and take our doggo for a walk, where we can breathe some fresh air and enjoy some quality time with our pupper, and the other is when we're giggling at animal memes. They're just so silly it allows our brain to take a chill pill and just focus on getting to the next meme. So take a breather, enjoy the funny animals below, and we hope you have a relaxing start to your week!

  • If only we could convince our brain to stop talking if it didn't have the talking stick! Did you know that some people have an inner monologue (like us), and others don't? They tend to see things in their mind's eye as pictures instead of a voice. We literally cannot imagine what that is like.

    Cliff Jerrison @pervocracy it's easy to have the courage of a lion, they're gigantic and have claws and no natural predators have the courage of the guinea pig, a two pound meat potato with zero offensive or defensive abilities, that will scream at an ape 100 times its size if their lettuce is too wilty

  • You know what else stops our brains from working overtime? Trashy TV. It's just so mind-numbingly ridiculous that we can't peel our eyes away from it. It's not a good habit, but we enjoy it.
