Cat is cute. Alt Text under the cut:

[Alt Text: lostwoodscutie's image, a Twitter screenshot from parasocialyte. It features a Transgender Flag Dog Leash with the caption "hot topic i know a lot of girls who would probably buy this but not for the reason you're selling it." End Image]

[Alt Text: wasabikitcat's series of screenshots. ospreythemoon says "Why would you put a transgender flag on a dog leash anyway. Dogs dont see colour like we do they wouldn't knoe it was a transgwnder flag."

jrwiyuri replies "Do you assume the patterns on a dog leash are for the dog?"

ospreyonthemoon replies "yes? I put patterns i think my cat would like on his collar. Is that not what the patterns are for"

countv0ncunt asks "how on earth would a cat be able to see their own collar"

ospreythemoon replies "i show him it??? I show him the collar and let him have a sniff. His favorite colour is pink, he likes pink toys and pink collars best. When he had a yellow collar he took it off, sad"

jrwiyuri tells ospreythemoon "I'm 99% sure most people pick out what patterns they personally like and not what their pet likes but I'm ignoring that to live in the world you live because it is a better world."

[Alt Text: cheshiregrinfu's series of screenshots. 3liza tells ospreythemoon "cats do not have the ability to see the color pink"

ospreythemoon replies "just because he doesn't see it as the pink i see doesn't mean he doesn't like it."

whatamessofwords tells ospreythemoon "i love the entire vibe you're giving off and i mean this in a sincere way, but you're adorable and i wish more people were like you"

ospreythemoon replies "thank you! but honestly I'm just surprised. I mean it just seems normal to me that if im buying an accessory for the animal the animal should like it. I mean that's just normal in my household. My sister buys our other cat purple kicky toys because she prefers to play with the purple one. Like, if i bought a gift for a friend I'd want them to like it, and my cats are always my friends, even if they fall asleep on my face."

ospreythemoon continues "Hm, a lot of people have started following me after i talked about my cat on this post. I don't know why. If you'd like to know, his name is Frankenstein (long for Frank) and he is going to be 18 years old next year. He's a sleepy old man and right now he is on his futon (it is a full size futon. It is in our living room because he likes it so we don't move it) and he is snoring softly like 'mhep. Mhep.' He's a lovely, gentle boy. He got banned from a town once though."

leche-flandom replies "me reading your nice Frank bio: aw that's nice…aw that's nice…mhep Mhep…aw that's--he got WHAT?"

ospreythemoon replies "in his youth (and when he had another owner) he was an outdoor cat, and an /extremely/ talented hunter. There's this town down in england called ducklington. Very proud of their duck pond. Frank moved there. He ate 23 ducklings in like 2 months. The town mayor visited their owner and went 'either MOVE or GET RID OF THAT CAT.' he moved. He also stole someone's prize koi once. But he's an indoor cat now. He's a harmless old man. He will not be exiled again."

ospreythemoon concludes "This is why cats should be kept indoors."

i dunno something about this hellsite is just very... white. like, when i think of tumblr collectively it's very white people

Like the music taste. Collectively, a lot of distaste for rap and blues and jazz. Lotta fandom racism. There's not a lot about making queer poc visible compared to all the stuff about white queers. Black have literally gotten banned for being black and being against oppressing black people.

and i know a lot of poc on here. i follow them. we interact. but that's not what im talking about. i dont know how to explain further. cope.

[Alt Text: brenna's image, the text is the same as what canthaveshitingotham-crucified wrote but with breaks. "i hate it when i cant even write

a poem about something

because its too obvious.

of one little glow in the dark star

that had been missed and painted

over in landlord white. like

Do you remember? The Alt text that's right under the "Read More"

[Alt Text: sickboywolfgang's. The first row says, disappointed, "Posting this during the day." The second row says, happily, "waiting till it's night so it's more accurate." The third row says, transcendently, "Waiting until 9/22 so you can actually remember the 21st night of September." End Image]

[Alt Text: zizirobinson's image. The image says, beyond describable excitement, "Waiting until December to go along with the lyric 'now December, found the love that we shared in Spetember.'"]

I am actually begging some people to just let some spaces exist untouched by real-world issues and horrors.

Like I've lost count of the amount of times peaceful game or fandom servers have been ruined by people stampeding in with political rants, bitching about world issues, demanding internal activism, demanding vent channels so they can whine about their shitty parents, ect.

Like. Respectfully. Not every single space has to be inclusive of and welcoming of outside topics. The real world sucks. We don't needed to be reminded of that absolutely everywhere.

I'm always seeing this sentiment of "I have got to make my art weirder" or people begging for weirder art but here's the thing, Weird is not a brand. You cannot rack your brains trying to figure out the "Weird" formula. You don't get weird art by artificially forcing whatever you think is "weird." You get weird art (and I think "weird" is sometimes people groping for a way of saying non-corporatized) by figuring out what you like, deep down, even (especially) if you think it's embarrassing and wallowing in it like a pig

look, guys, this may seem ironic coming from a person with Verbose Disease, but I'm about to tell you the secret to winning social media: shutting the fuck up. you have a controversial discourse opinion? shut the fuck up and no one will know. can't participate in a boycott for various reasons? shut the fuck up and no one will know. you think or do something Problematic that has no bearing on anyone but yourself? shut the fuck up and no one will know. you haven't been keeping up on a pressing social issue? shut the fuck up and no one will know. your mind is a wonderful place where you can have all the bad takes in the world and they're all perfectly insulated from everyone and everything unless you try to excise them on a grand scale. you can take the mental L all by yourself without using a public platform as a confession booth and face zero repercussions and it'll be just fine. open up a damn diary and explain yourself there.

Do people know about Vocational Rehab? If you're USAmerican they have this in every state.

It's a program that helps disabled folks access education, training, and employment. For FREE.

You only have to be disabled to qualify (autism, ADHD, mental illness, physical illness, etc) and they cover very broad categories of disability. You do NOT have to be officially diagnosed yet when you walk in - they will even help pay for your diagnosis if you are struggling w disability.

I applied with my suspected autism and fibromyalgia, and they paid for 100% of my formal autism assessment.

Once your disability is established they will give you career counseling to learn about your interests and skills, and depending on the plan you create with your caseworker they will then help with school or finding employment. They paid for 100% of my college tuition and books, and even provided a laptop for me to use.

You do not have to pay anything for this program. If you make above a certain income, you will have to contribute to educational costs but will still receive assistance.

They will also help with the cost of things like mental health counseling while you work towards your goals, clothing for interviews, etc.

They cannot discriminate based on your race, gender, or sexual orientation.

They won't make you do excessive meetings.

They will allow you to do meetings with your caseworker remotely.

They will not drug test you.

They want you to succeed.

I'm sure that individual experiences vary but my caseworker was exceptionally easy to work with and very kind.

Vocational Rehab is a phenomenal resource every disabled person should be aware of. Here is the list of offices in every state:
