How does OCD factor into rabies?
It’s more so “how does rabies factor into OCD?”
And the answer is that it rabies OCD is a form of contamination OCD. And rabies is probably one of the most scary, most well known contaminates out there. And actual education about rabies is notoriously poor, so you hear a whole lot of fear mongering and very little actual facts. So here are the facts:
1. Rabies is 100% preventable if you get a post exposure vaccine.
2. Post exposure vaccines are not scary. I’m telling you this as someone who is afraid of shots. It is the year of our lord 2025, rabies vaccines are not how they used to be.
3. You cannot get rabies from blood, urine, or feces. You can only get rabies from saliva, ocular fluids, and sexual fluids and it must go into an open wound or something.
4. You cannot get rabies from an animal or human who is not rabid. Even if I got bit by a rabid raccoon and then came to bite you, I would not be able to give you rabies. That isn’t how rabies works, you don’t become rabid the moment you get rabies
6. Rabies can take a while (months) to develop. This scares some people, but really it should let you know that if you actually got bit or scratched, you will be fine. Call the health department or call your local wildlife rehabber. They know what’s what for *your* specific area. They might tell you don’t need a shot, they might say you do.
7. If you aren’t a little kid, you will know if a bat bit you. Yes—you can feel it. It hurts. I’ve watched people get bit by bats. I’ve seen bat bites after the fact. Might you sleep through a bat bite? Yes. But you will know the next morning if you see a bat in your room. If you see a bat? Go to the doctor.
8. Rabies is rare in the US, both in humans and in animals. Don’t touch wildlife, but also don’t be afraid going about your daily business that a rabid raccoon snuck into your bedroom at night and French kissed you.
9. The best way to protect yourself against rabies is to keep a respectful distance from all wildlife and stray animals
#i can confirm as someone who's had the full lineup of rabies shots: its not bad#you spread the shots out and they don't really hurt. the only thing that hurts is the first immune shot#it'll hurt more if you weigh more since it scales with body weight. so it depends on the dose but you only need one#i will also say: if a squirrel is acting strange (stumbling etc) it's more likely to have distemper than rabies#which isn't transmissible to humans. still don't touch wildlife though#use common sense and you'll be fine truly. you shouldn't be touching any wildlife anyway#if you see any bats in your home do not attempt to grab them. call animal control and go to a doctor#ALSO OPOSSUMS DON'T GET RABIES!!#okay they COULD hypothetically. but their body temperature is too low in 99% of cases#try. not to get bit by possums. you can still get diseases#but not rabies!!

“The old magic persists thanks to it’s unfathomable power.”
No, the old magic persists because the new magic can’t run the legacy spells I need to do my job, and keeps trying to install spirits I don’t want or need onto my orb.

For those who are not familiar, the Death Note is a supernatural notebook from the titular manga and anime. The basic rules of the book are as follows:
If someone writes the name of another person in the book while visualizing their face, that person will die.
The time, cause, and circumstances of death can be specified within reason.
If details are not specified or are not possible, the victim will die of a heart attack.
If the owner gives up the book, they lose all their memories of owning it.
For the sake of the poll, if more than one motivation applies, select the most important one. The definition of the options and the specifics of the fantasy are not particularly important here, I am mostly interested in the moral stances and rationale of other people.
#not a mormon in the notes saying this is indicative of the violence in peoples minds and hearts right now#yeah. in the minds and hearts of politicians. kill those guys

The breed standard for modern Persian cats calls for the nose and mouth to be in “vertical alignment” with the eyes 😭
#I HATEEE BRACHYCEPHALIC BREEDS I HATEEE IT#saw a persian at work with the snout almost BEHIND the eyes and i felt violent#shockingly that cat wasn't at the shelter for long. probably because it was too unhealthy to be adoptable.#some of the pugs we get in make me feel so sad. why is the standard to breed animals that live in constant pain#SCOTTISH FOLDS. we've never had any at the shelter but they make me SO MAD#scottish folds as a breed should just be outright banned. it's animal cruelty and as far as i know there is NO ethical way to breed them#the cartilage defect defines the breed. what else has cartilage? EVERY JOINT IN YOUR BODY#SORRY i am just. i am angry because i am mad

Jet from atla is so funny bc like, he's fighting zuko and taunting him being like "bet you wanna use some fire instead of those swords, dont u fireboy" which is a funny thing to say to a guy who is clearly very eager to fight using swords

I know everyone says it’s best to just stick to “said” as a dialogue tag bc it disappears and that’s true and I mostly do but I want to take a moment for my all-time favorite dialogue tag, “lied.” Absolutely nothing hits like “‘I’m here to help,’ he lied.” NOTHING.
