Need more content of Remus being all wolfy near the full moon — but not like a “snappy, protective, always in pain” type of wolfy. That’s amazing and angsty and I’m all for it. But also hear me out.

More of “I just growled at a cat on instinct but I’m pretty sure it was McGonagall what do I do”

“I almost just howled during a lecture because I heard something else howl from in the forest, it was so embarrassing please put me out of my misery”

“Moony wants me to pee on that tree but I absolutely will not and now I have a headache existence is hell”

“I need to chew on something like right now but my fingernails are pleading for mercy”

“The excuse for why I shook off the water like a wet dog and didn’t do a drying spell is that I forgot, okay?”

Basically, the small things that are still annoying and embarrassing, but not as bad as “I’ve got lots of deep scarring and chronic pain :(” because there’s probably more to being a werewolf than just the downright awful bits, right?

creepypasta headcanons!1!1!!1

Aight here are some creepypasta headcanons cuz im bored

Slenderman

-his tentacles are furry and look like really long cat tails and get puffy and zig zaggy when he’s mad. -He is a father figure to the proxies but not a super good one and typically ends up seeming like an evil boss when he wants to appear as a father figure.

-There are two computers in the whole mansion that are old but work enough to search the internet and play minecraft

-Slenderman usually doesn’t leave the proxies alone when he’s going out for awhile because the one time he did, Jeff and Ben downloaded 69 bites of gay old man 🌽 on his computer and then Clockwork shat on it after. He cried when he got home.

Jeff The Killer

-I headcanon he’s vegan bc he loves animals

-absolute baby with fragile ‘masculinity’

-his friends joke about him being a republican hillbilly because he’s southern. (actually has a very slight accent too.)

-He’s friends with Nina despite knowing that she has a crush on him. He doesn’t mind. -he makes really gay jokes with ben

-Showers like once a month and smells bad. -I headcanon that he’s asexual and fairly androgynous. Doesn’t really know what he’s romantically attracted to, nor does he care.

-Wants to be friends with Jane again but knows he can’t.

-he was high on pain killers when he killed his family and Jane’s family in the same night and continued killing because he thought there would be no going back and now is afraid of drugs.

-edgy 15 year old with offensive tumblr humor

-Toby jokes about him being fat

-His favorite song is sweet dreams.

-was actually friends with Randy, Keith, and Troy. But a massive argument caused them to stop being friends and led to the whole incident.

Ben Drowned

-Doesn’t shower

-100% gay

-Can control the power in the mansion and make the lights turn off or something.

-Surpringly good with technology and doxxes people when he’s mad. He also jokingly threatened to leak Liu’s address which scared Liu half to death.

-Has a best friend trolling trio with Jeff and EJ

-His room smells bad

-owns a worn out gaming chair

Eyeless Jack

-Doesn’t actually like eating kidneys, Chernobog just makes him, but sometimes he fools Chernobog by eating kidney beans

-Gets weirded out when somebody calls him the “son of Chernobog” because he thinks it’s weird and too fancy.

-Listens to rap music

-Tried to become a rapper and used garbage YouTube beats, he made five songs that were all about fingering Otis (Bloody Painter). He also sampled an audio of Jeffrey beatboxing sweet dreams in the background of one of his songs. This same song had kazoo in the bridge

-ex zalgo goon but nobody knows but Slenderman and he’s too scared of what everyone would think if they knew.

-Extremely insecure about his face and always has his mask on. Only people who’ve seen are Jeff and Slenderman.

Ticci Toby

-Asshole with hatchets -joked about being flat earth but now thinks he might actually be flat earth

-besties with Clockwork

-Hates waffles. He hates them so much, he went into a gas station at 9pm, shoplifted a box of frozen waffles, threw them at a group of middle schoolers, and popped a cap in the cashier’s ass when he tried to stop Toby. He actually got his face on the news for this. One time, Lazari poured syrup in the vents and the mansion smelled like waffles for a whole week, Toby had constant headaches while throwing up and crying because he thought the mansion smelled so bad.

-Very quiet and always cooperative, so he’s like Slenderman’s favorite.

-bullies jeff for apparently being fat.

-literally doesn’t sleep

-Around most people he’s his canon self, that is very cold and quiet. Around his friends he’s more fanon Toby, annoying, immature, and has a weird sense of humor.

-encouraged Jeff to go full hillbilly mode and run over Offenderman with a truck.

-smells like cat pee and butter

-Always has an attitude and mad about something.

Bloody Painter

-Listened to all 5 of EJ’s soundtracks. Has the kazoo one on his Spotify playlist.

-Artistic

-Comes off as smart but says the dumbest thing every now and then.

-Scared of potatoes. He thinks they crawl around his room at night.

-Had the weird ice cream cut in middle school.

-Doesn’t wash his hands

Clockwork

-has a very stylish pixie cut.

-people often look at her clock eye to check the time.

-makes up things to be mad about

-has a Barbie doll that Sally gave her that was naked, bald, and didn’t have arms. She twisted its legs backwards and gave it prosthetic tampon arms so that it could sit on her nightstand on all fours. His name is Hector.

-shat on Slenderman’s computer

-besties with Toby. They were actually a couple once but then Clockwork found out she was lesbian and they broke it off. Now they’re best friends and both assholes and say the meanest things to each other as jokes.

-Has freckles all over her face. Like literally everywhere.

-Has vine humor

Nina The Killer

-absolute scene queen

-Jazmin Bean listener

-Has more anger issues than Jeff

-Didn’t kill her family. It was her bullies who killed her family.

-Toby hit her with a shoe and then chased her around the mansion to hit her with the shoe more.

-“I’m not like other girls” mindset.

-actually very sweet when she’s not mad

-dyes the streak in her hair a different color every month

(Part 2?)

[elgaladwen]

I'm glad this week is just reaffirming that I can deal with gross things, even though I have the weakest stomach. I just had to deal with all the hay we use for bedding that was absolutely inundated with cat poop and pee. That's like whatever, not happy, but I actually had gloves. But then a few days ago I cleaned out a ton of rotten eggs that were like black and pink inside from being so fermented, and there were just, maggots everywhere, and I had no gloves, so I accidentally touched so much of it even though I was trying to use a trowel, and I only had hand sanitizer and not soap. (Thankfully the hens that were around were SO excited to eat these wriggling maggots and not wriggling but still nasty pupae)

And then one hen (different group) laid an egg with a bloody white this morning, that was honestly fascinating, but it looked like it should be in a horror movie. The same hen also laid a yolk-less soft egg the other night that was a weird curved tube shape and looked like the thing in the bathtub in PT. (And she's just getting old, I am trying to make her have vitamins and more calcium, but she's fine in general thankfully, and blood in eggs is generally from a burst blood vessel while the egg is forming.)

So anyway, I puked from having bad headaches this week, but somehow from none of that, which I am very surprised because I have one of those senses of smell that sometimes causes me to puke over almost nothing! Does this mean I'm getting stronger?

[pinksilvace]

Hi!! I can't remember if I sent you an ask already, do you have any AUs for cats?

You have not, and yes I do!

@thepineconelord and I have been imagining a college AU (or I guess specifically dorm life AU) for a while - Alonzo and Munkustrap would be RAs of their (freshman) building (they are the main focus of most of our musings). Their supervisor is Jenny (other ACs include Asparagus Jr., Jellylorum, and maybe Skimble?). All of the kittens are residents, +M&R +Plato and Misto transfers into the building at one point. Tugger's in a different building, but he comes over often and causes problems that give Alonzo a headache. Typically, if there's a social thing going on, Munkustrap is called; if there's a facility issue like a clogged toilet or pee in the shower, the residents grab Alonzo instead, since they know he'll be annoyed instead of disappointed like Munkustrap would be. Anyway, here's the one (1) note I've previously had written down about this AU:

Oh, and Pounce, Tumble, Plato, and Jerrie are in a quad room. Probably one in the basement. Pounce is scared of the bugs down there.

I've written about another of my AUs, which I guess might not technically be an AU, but it's basically another take on the "Alonzo knew Macavity pre-Jellicles" headcanon.

I have a crack idea in which Alonzo and Tugger are taken off the streets by a man named John (wink wink) and can't figure out how to escape his house. Tugger, being microchipped, decides to live his best life until his owners come retrieve him. Alonzo is much more desperate and emotionally constipated and generally having a Very Bad Time.

I once jokingly wrote about an apartment AU, though it's not very in-depth.

There are probably more, but these are the main ones I remember off the top of my head!

[deweydecimalchickens]

So yeah, I escaped from Meriden! TL;DR: I managed 30.8 miles as the crow flies and 44 as the feet walk, getting from Meriden in Warwickshire to RAF Cosford in Shropshire. Technically I am now an ultramarathoner, having skipped the marathon stage.

Learnings:

My Hi Tec Raven boots are cute, cheap and vegan, but do not support my feet enough, even with Supafeet insoles. Thankfully my route took me past my house and I could swap to my battered old Peter Storms, which will never be waterproof again, but give my feet a good cuddle.

Plotting a route that went past my house was a stroke of genius. It added about five miles but meant I could switch to dry clothes and have an emergency nap. Also it turns out my cats cannot handle the timed feeder, psychologically.

I am a convert to using two lightweight walkimg poles, even if they left me with sore shoulders and blisters on my hands. 44 miles with poles felt a lot better than 25 without. Also a godsend for poking dodgy terrain in the dark before putting your feet on it.

Sometimes it's better to pee al fresco than go in the abandoned portaloo that's physically and spiritually a bit unstable.

People who do weird events are generally lovely. The pre-race briefing included a section dedicated to a guy last year who missed a tiny 'footpath closed' sign, fell in a construction mud pit, lost a shoe, and continued for a further 25 miles. At which point an angel watching the race randomly showed up to lend him shoes. And then the race director presented him with a brand new pair this year.

If you're gonna carry two litres of fluid on your back you should probably drink some of it in the first 15 miles or you don't get to wonder why you have a headache and brain fog.

Photos below the cut.

Cross at the centre of England; race start point. It's not a cross anymore because it's 500 years old.

Alright yeah let's do this!

Extremely cursed toilet. Or I pissed in the TARDIS. It was dark.

When I realised it was only 24 hours for drive thru and I'm not a car and there would not be coffee.

Radical Muslim found in Lozells. Must be one of those no-go areas of Birmingham I've heard about *rolls eyes*

More street art, this time in Handsworth, commemorating the 1976-7 Grunwick strike.

Dark again by the time I reached my fourth county (Warwickshire, West Midlands, Staffordshire, Shropshire)

RAF Cosford inviting me to coffee in the community hub, behind barbed wire, under the Official Secrets Act.

Pathetically drinking vitamin/electrolyte juice in the train home.

[the-acid-pear]

Okay i don't have the brain power to watch the rest of NRN NAT video but god that first half was horrendous anyway here's my "Reason You Suck" Speech for anyone who cares

Okay i actually got so railed up about this i got a headache so i need to counter argue to many of your points about Steven. Starting with something i see a lot of people not realize and is that yes, indeed, all endings ARE canon. This is pretty clearly explained by Henry in the secret tape (you get it from fishing it out the ballpit or from the dodo, both very annoying methods so i dont blame anyone from missing this) and it explains Jack's soul is one with time powers that will revert time based on regret. With this, we know not only EVERY ending and game over is canon but also something Jack remembers.

Keeping this on mind, Jack's obvious bias towards Dave compared to Steven MAKES sense, because there's no timeline where Steven is nice unless he's doing it out of being forced to do so (owing you a favor). On top of that, there's another detail: Jack DID know about Dave's backstory!

When he learned it is obviously not clear but there's to places where its implied he does, in fact, know about it: Dee's fight, obviously, and Jake's backstory. In Dee's fight she asks him for confirmation on whether this was true and he's like "yeah" meaning this isnt news for him, and in Jake's backstory he talks about this EVEN if he didnt go to the flipside or heard the tapes, meaning that at some point he had an honest heart to heart with Dave about his past and such.

Now, relating it back to Steven: I feel that they cannot even be fucking compared. I think Steven would be better compared to the other two phone guys we see making a decision like this, those being Harry (ironically the one who made Steven) and Peter. I mean, Roger and Jake are also in the same situation, but they're just following what their boss says so they cannot be counted in.

Peter for his part is an outlier, because he's the first Phone Guy we EVER see decide to not send someone to the factory (that being Jimbo), completely ignoring what this would mean for him (if anything, since we don't really know if there are consequences or not). Harry and Steven, obviously, did send their respective coworkers there, but there's a main difference: Steven was utterly remorseful about this while Harry kind of... thought genuinely this was a good idea?

Which does say a lot about how Harry views himself but it also says something about Steven: that he's a fucking coward. Which we did, in fact, know, but this reinforces it.

Steven made a choice by his own voalition, and i don't think this is even fair to compare with Dave. Dave was being abused and manipulated by his father figure and the only person who had ever been nice to him, the only person he thought he had in the world. He was regretful too but he really wanted to trust Henry because what did he have if he left? Steven on the other hand is not being "molly cuddled" by anyone but a manual.

This isnt to say Steven isnt tragic, he is! He, like everyone else, is a complex and tragic character who did unfortunately go quite unexplored, but he's also a bad person because he chooses to be so. He'd have been like Peter, he'd have broken the cycle, he'd have done anything a man aware of the weight of his actions could do, but he didn't, because he was scared!

Also i must point out this very cowardice also reflects on his own violence because to say he's not as bad as Peter is just plain bullshit. Peter was a bit more festive yes but he at least let you Pee On Slides and Gave You Warnings. Steven kicked me in the fucking springlocks because my puns were bad. That guy was brutal and cruel but also wouldnt dare to kick Jack's ass if he was out of that stupid cool cat suit.

So, to wrap this up now that my blood pressure went to safe levels again: when you look at the whole picture Jack's feelings towards Dave and Steven are not entirely unjustified. The way that tangerine goes about doing anything at all is highly questionable though but he's like everyone else just a flawed individual. And that's what makes this franchise so compelling

So, 2024 has continued to suck.

Hopefully none of you remember exactly why last weekend, the first weekend of the new year, was incredibly NOT FUN, let's just say it involved plumbing distress that led to having to pee in the shower and time bowel movements for when I was at work until it was resolved and I spent a day at work hiding in my office so I could be near a toilet for female reasons. It was functionally resolved by Sunday evening (thank deity of choice) and between bleach and scrubbing bubbles cleanup was emotionally difficult but not physically difficult. (Full cleanup of the whole room is ongoing, but it's the basement, so that's okay).

The second weekend of 2024 is a three-day weekend in the US as Monday is a government holiday (MLK Day). It is also a university holiday which is shall we say, not universal in academia. (I finally remembered why it wasn't a holiday at my alma mater. It was because spring semester classes didn't start that early).

In order for me to take a weekday off of a three-day weekend, I still have to get Monday's work done over that weekend for the rest of the week to go smoothly. While I can choose whatever day I do it on, and it's a half-day's work, not a full day's work, it still needs to get done and I'm almost never going to be able to squeeze it in on Friday. This past week, one of my bosses had a meltdown in the animal room due to bad lighting and him probably needing new glasses. Regardless, it put me behind on my own work, so rather than stay at work Friday past 10 pm (and stand on concrete floors and aggravate my plantar fasciitis again, I came into work Saturday morning, worked a good 4ish hours, took an extended lunch break (got writing done, yay) and worked another 4ish hours to get Friday and Monday's work done, so I could take off on Monday. Oh, the things I could do. Some quick shopping. Laundry. Take N the Cat to the vet because apparently, she was hiding feeling under the weather.

On Sunday I get groceries for the first time in 2.5 weeks (plumbing issues last weekend) and notice I'm starting to cough. A lot. Darn, a cough. Could be my allergies. It's been raining a lot which sets them off, and we are also experiencing a cold snap which leads to me huddling on the couch under blankets and N the Cat, which can result in acid reflux due to my prone position for long periods.

In the middle of the night on Sunday, the unrelenting sinus headache hits. OMG. Ow. This is why I was coughing. The allergy meds probably masked it. Also, I'm less cold all of a sudden, which is not a weather reversal, I have a fever. I finally get a weekday off free and clear and I'm fricking sick and my head just won't stop hurting. Mind you, it's tolerable pain. It's not a migraine. It just won't stop. It woke me up from sleep.

The next weekday I will get off from work is March 15th, the last Friday of Spring Break. I will probably not get to take it off because I will still be waiting for people to get their data in Thursday at 6 pm. The university skips a lot of random government holidays to keep the term going and gives us days off between Christmas and New Years instead.

I am not amused with 2024.

[taraljc]

I am deeply frustrated because my computer is being tetchy. what I want to do is grab my laptop and write in bed. But whenever I unplug it from the docking station, it's really hard to actually get it to wake up from hibernation mode, and half the time I have to reboot it. and I don't have a separate power cord next to my bed, and I need to get another one because the other loose power cord is in the living room and I don't want to steal it from there. and I have to wait until Wednesday to see if a thing happens, and if it does then either I throw half the story out or I add another 4,000 words. But there's no way to know.

Also illustrator keeps crashing but that's almost certainly because my hard drive was too full. what's more annoying is my 4K monitor constantly going black every few seconds and I know it's a known issue and I know it's probably just needs a new power cord but it makes every little change take twice as long and I'm just tired.

that said, I had art go off to a client to look at today and or yesterday I guess I should say. because it's one in the morning right now. and hopefully they will approve it and I will get paid and I will be able to pay my mortgage and it will all be very exciting.

in other news, I never did get that root canal and so I am using orajel and ibuprofen, but all of the pain is actually giving me a tension headache on top of everything else.

Also, my beloved cat whom I love more than anything this world, has been peeing on my bedroom carpet again and I can't figure out where and my whole room smells like cat pee. here's an adorable photo of her reaching out to touch my arm to get my attention.

as soon as I have the money I am going to take her back to the vet. based on the initial visit, we think it's behavioural rather than her actually physically being in pain. we've taken her off fish completely and have water bowls all over the house. But she also has been having territorial issues where Cassie will claim part of the bed and the bed has historically been Shadow's and so there are a lot of small skirmishes.

If you would like to help out with expenses, I would not say no as the GoFundMe is still up and running until both or either of us gets a full-time gag again.

[kangamommynow]

I don't live on a farm, nor am I a maid in a great house. I don't have hard labor to do before breakfast. And yet... I stress about chores.

Morning chores or tasks:

Stretch at least a little (or I can't do anything else. My joints keep me immobile)

Walk the dog before he pees in the house

Clean the cat boxes before the dog eats cat poo, which he is determined to do. We have nine cats. That's a lot of poop.

Clean up any poo or pee outside the box

Feed the dog.

Get out a smoothie to defrost a bit

Feed the cats. Chris already fed them, but Pipsqueak and the kittens need more

Pick up cat toys from the floor before the Roomba runs over them

Have coffee, because I don't want caffeine headache

Fill the dry cat bowls, pick them up so the dog doesn't eat all their food

Feed the birds. This involves putting up a ladder to fill the feeders and putting it away again. Right now it involves trudging through snow

Deal with any dishes. Chris usually unloads the dishwasher, but if there are leftover dishes now's the time.

Give Siggi her meds, if Chris didn't have a chance to

Water the plants that need it

Deal with laundry, possibly. There's always something to do. I don't always do it.

Have something to eat. Make sure to include supplements

Take my meds

Empty the Roomba

Shower and do skin care

Practice German. Not strictly necessary, but I'm on a 465 day streak and I don't want to lose it.

Do Paired, because Chris needs to know I love and adore him and value our communication

Clean out emails, answer any emails

After that I can start on any other things, like errands or doing Quicken or making food to have for dinner or cleaning up.

Most of that is automatic, of course, but each thing requires just a little brain power and energy to move about. It's only a lot when you list all of it, but there are always dozens of separate decisions and steps to each of those things. In my case, I feel anxious until it's all done and my brain wants to have it all done immediately.

I'm a reasonably healthy adult who has been moving about on this planet for 53 years. If I struggle with getting adulting done, it seems totally reasonable to me that other people, who have far more to deal with mentally, emotionally, physically, would have a much harder time. There's no shame in not being able to do as much as you think you ought or someone else can. No one is superhuman when you see it from inside their world

[reblogg3darts]

ND vs NT

Disclaimer first and foremost: I'm a self-diagnosed ND. No official diagnosis because there is still a heavy stigma in my country of NDs that generally boxed NDs as 'non-productive' and/or 'idiots'.

Never mind that I am almost 50 with self-bought house in a gated community in a suburb, an actual job that literally carries the country's financial security, and has numerous cats who are cared for much, much better than the cats of those so-called 'catfluencers'.

From my personal observation, there is one major difference between NDs and NTs, and that is the weight of their observations vs what came out of their mouth.

It's not out of the ordinary for NDs to have intense and thorough observation skills. Personally, I would not make an opinion until I've got all sides of the quantitative facts. The quickest example for me is sterilizing cats.

I have, in the course of six years, sterilized a lot of cats. I care for 9 indoor cats, 9 outdoor (community) cats, and fosters a lot of cats from babies to hospice cases. All are (or will be, in the case of the babies) sterilized. I have a sample size of over 50 sterilized cats around my house's gated complex and elsewhere in homes of friends/families.

I can and will opine that sterilization is a very, very humane method to control cats' populations. Add streetfeeding to it, and vaccinations, and those cats - particularly the outdoor ones - will live for a minimum of 5 years AFTER the sterilization.

I will NOT accept opinions stating otherwise, unless said cats are placed in high-hazard areas i.e. a place with lots of traffic - no wild beasts here, I'm in a suburb. Then their survivability does not rely on sterilization.

I don't glamorize TNR. For me, TNR is a means to an end, said end being: me not burying cats/kitten every other week, me not getting blood pressure spikes from cats-in-heat brawling on my roof, me not getting headaches over the pee stinks of unsterilized cats.

I, on principal, don't approve those glamorizing TNR as 'heroic acts'. I appreciate those documenting every side of TNR, from catching to diseases to death, as literally just that: documentaries to educate others.

Most of the time, those wanting to glamorize TNR are NTs. A lot prefer the numerous pats on the back, especially on social media, for their personal dopamine boost. But most failed - or prefer not to show - the ugly side of TNR: the spayaborts, the pyometras, the cancers, the wounds of the male cats from fighting, etc. Those, I don't appreciate at all.

Back to the ND v. NT in data digestions. I noted that a lot of NTs liked to collect minimal data and spout opinions out of their sitting ends like it is the actual fact. This leads to many, many dangerous outcome that they overlooked or even ignored.

One I just had is with an NT who claimed that 'dog lovers don't care for cats, whereas cat lovers will care for dogs in social media!'

Not a more wrong statement can be had...

I live in an Islam-majority country. Approximately 80% of the muslims here abhors dogs because they are haram and their saliva is najis. But about 50% of the population likes cats.

The one major thing that NT skipped is that Dog Lovers tend to not draw attention to themselves due to the well-known religious bias. Whereas 'cat lovers' tend to be people who likes attention and would integrate themselves into a conversation without invitation and without a care of the outcome.

I personally love cats AND dogs. I am not in a place to care for a dog yet, due to my mom having dog trauma and I don't have it in me yet to battle her trauma (yes, she lives with me in my house, but she is also turning 80 and me not having a dog is not the end of the world).

I also know at least a dozen of my personal acquaintances who is not an acquaintance of the abovementioned NT who have both dogs and cats and/or care for both.

She, in the mean time, insisted that her statement is true over ONE client of hers whose sister doesn't like cats because she's a 'dog person'.

See? That's a typical NT argument in which I list down half of my acquaintances who have both dogs and cats, and cut off her argument with the statement that her benchmark is far too low and too few to make an opinionated statement.

Which lead me to this post and temporary conclusion: NDs don't like making assumptions (not because it makes an ass of you and me) because we know how painful and dangerous a limited data/information could be - we've had it happened to us (and is still happening here in my country) when everyone and their grandmothers calling us weird or stupid just because we're NDs.

NTs make assumptions out of nowhere because no one had enough knowledge to challenge them.

And I'm tired of it.

SYMPTOMS OF HEAT EXHAUSTION

-tiredness, dizziness, headache, nausea, irritability

-excessive sweating and skin becoming pale and clammy or getting a heat rash, skin turning red (but a change in skin colour can be harder to see on brown and black skin)

-cramps in the arms, legs and stomach

-fast breathing or heartbeat (without cause from exercise)

-a high body temperature

-being very thirsty (drinking water doesn’t make the feeling go away)

-weakness (feeling like “jelly”)

Symptoms are same for children and adults.

If you feel symptoms, try to cool down somehow. Stop working, remove clothing if possible, drink water or a sports drink, and cool your skin down with a wet towel or a spray bottle of water.

FOR PETS: (dogs and cats specifically but many animals show similar symptoms)

-difficulty breathing, excess panting

-bright red or purple gums, drooling

-high temperatures, fever

-muscle tremors and rapid pulse

-dehydration, won’t pee, excess drinking

-in extreme cases: vomiting, seizures, lethargy, diarrhea, passing out (see a vet NOW!)

Treatment is basically the same for animals as it is for humans!

Take care of yourselves and your pets!!

if you are dealing with extreme heat or even just. moderate heat in your area right now. 80f/26c is when it starts getting toasty for a lot of people. if you are in a heat wave and you have not done yourself the favor of googling fucking "heat exhaustion symptoms" i am shaking you violently right now. look it up. burn the symptoms into your brain. heatstroke is no joke and it can and WILL sneak up on you before you're aware it's even an issue. ohh my god

✮ 2nd Date ✮

As the days count down, Brielle gets progressively tenser about her need to get married.

Even receiving new postcards and feeding her intruder cats isn’t enough to distract her.

“I. Hate. My life!”

After work, she finds herself yet another pen pal…

Brielle: “I literally asked for a description of the river in a town called Riverview, Brielle you #%$*ing Moron! He’s going to think you’re so lame!”

Cat(?): “Your forbidden words offend me! I’m going to pee in your bed!”

The cat (possibly a leopard… ocelot?) loudly destroys Brielle’s bedroom, which doesn’t help her tension headache. Thankfully Alejandro offers her a means of escape. A date!

Brielle: “Ugh I can still hear the screeching here, my ears are ringing.”

Alejandro: *stares blankly*

Currently loving: --cuddling with my cats in the morning with a cup of coffee --doing the dishes in the dishwasher --earning cashback on acorns --spiralized zucchini noodles --low carb bagels

Currently struggling with: --my double chin --how the house gets messy so fast --how I can't seem to keep on top of my bills --Somi peeing on all the dog beds... --I don't like any of my clothes!!! But I don't want to buy more --Headaches and nausea when I am driving home from work --Loneliness in that I don't seem to make friends easily, but I want friends outside of my high school friends and my sister

Currently thinking about: --I think around this time last year I found out I was pregnant... --I think this time of year is a huge trigger for me and I feel things that I don't understand where I am feeling really uncomfortable in my body --I think that I am considering becoming a nurse educator. I like looking at nursing policies, safety improvement, and working on changes in the workplace! I've unlocked something new that I have never experienced at a workplace, which is that I like being a part of change implementation and I want to use my skills to better the environment. --I like being a part of the fun committee because I'm both working towards mitigating risk in the workplace with the RN changes, but I can also focus on implementing fun and encouraging bonding and enjoyment at Vaden too.

I've cried at least four times today, have a HORRIBLE intense yeast infection, my headphones aren't working (I wear them literally 24/7 bc autism) so I can't drown out noise/my thoughts, my dog (Jace, hes probably fine) has weird green goop coming out of his eye and naturally im freaking out, my other dog (max) is being put down tomorrow, I picked up one of my summer shoes out of my Shoe Corner and they smelled STRONGLY of cat pee which means my cat peed on all of my summer shoes so I can't wear them, I have a headache, my allergies are killing me, I don't have any food, and on top of all of that I have a driving lesson this afternoon (driving stresses me out so bad I have panic attacks and cry and throw up).

I want today to be over with
