yelling at the cat & spraying them with water results (as physical punishments for animals & also small children usually go, & yes, spraying with water is a physical punishment) in the cat learning that they can do the thing as long as you aren't around. They don't understand why you're punishing them. They might know, but they don't understand. All it is to them is you attacking them for no reason. They don't have a concept of "destroying the couch" or "counter needs to stay clean & your feet are very, very dirty".

Jackson Galaxy can say it way better than I can so I'm just gonna link his video on training your cat out of these "bad" behaviours:

Please stop physically punishing your cats. All it's doing is ruining your relationship with them.

love when you stop a cat from doing something and instead of understanding that they shouldnt be doing that theyre just like. ah sorry my good sir you seem to have interrupted me. no worries let me just shimmy past you and get a taste of that pan of hot oil. please.

Understanding Cat Anxiety and Stress

You might be surprised to learn that your beloved feline friend can experience anxiety and stress just like humans do. Cat behavior modification is a growing field, with many owners seeking out relaxation techniques for pets who are struggling with these issues.

As a pet owner, it's important to understand the signs of anxiety in cats so that you can address the problem before it becomes too serious. Some common signs of anxiety in cats include hiding or avoiding social interaction, excessive grooming or scratching, loss of appetite, and even aggression.

If you notice any of these behaviors in your cat, it's important to take action as soon as possible. There are many different relaxation techniques for pets that can help alleviate stress and anxiety in your furry friend. In the next section, we'll explore some natural calming sprays for cats that may be able to provide relief without resorting to medication or other more invasive treatments.

Transitioning into the next section about synthetic calming sprays for cats, it's important to note that while synthetic options may also provide relief, they come with potential side effects and risks. It's always best to consult with your veterinarian before using any type of medication or spray on your furry companion.

Synthetic Calming Sprays for Cats

If you're considering a calming spray for your cat, it's important to weigh the potential risks and benefits of synthetic options. While natural alternatives are often preferred, synthetic sprays may have some advantages that make them worth considering. For example, they may be more effective in reducing anxiety levels in cats compared to their natural counterparts.

However, before making a decision, it's important to take note of the pros and cons of using synthetic calming sprays for cats. Some studies suggest that certain ingredients found in these products may have negative effects on feline health if used excessively or over an extended period of time. It's essential to consult with your veterinarian before choosing a synthetic calming spray for your furry friend to ensure its safety and effectiveness.

When it comes to choosing the right calming spray for your cat, there are various factors to consider. These include ingredients, effectiveness comparison between natural and synthetic options, and compatibility with your cat's personality and behavior.

How to Choose the Right Calming Spray for Your Cat

When choosing the right calming spray for your cat, it's important to understand their needs. Not all cats are the same and what works for one may not work for another. Reading labels and ingredients is also crucial in ensuring that the product is safe and effective.

It's always best to consult with your veterinarian before using any new product on your furry friend to ensure it won't interfere with any medications or treatments they may already be receiving.

Understanding Your Cat's Needs

Understanding what your cat needs is crucial for their well-being and happiness. As a pet owner, you must be aware of your cat's behavior to identify any changes or signs of distress.

Environmental factors play a significant role in influencing your feline friend's mental state. Factors such as noise level, temperature, and lighting can affect your cat's mood and lead to anxiety.

It's essential to provide a calm environment for your cat at home. You can create a safe space by providing hiding spots, scratching posts, and toys that encourage playtime. Also, make sure to keep the litter box clean and fresh water available at all times.

By understanding these environmental factors that affect your cat's behavior, you can choose the right calming spray that addresses their specific needs. With this knowledge in mind, let's move on to reading labels and ingredients to ensure that you're picking the best option for your furry friend!

Reading Labels and Ingredients

Let's dive into the labels and ingredients of calming sprays to ensure you're making an informed decision for your beloved feline companion.

When analyzing the label, look for active ingredients such as pheromones, chamomile, or lavender. These natural ingredients have been known to have a calming effect on cats without any harmful side effects.

It's also important to be aware of potential allergens that may be present in the spray. If your cat has any known allergies or sensitivities, make sure to check the label for common allergens such as wheat, corn, soy, or dairy products.

By taking the time to read and understand the label and ingredients of a calming spray, you can ensure that it is both safe and effective for your furry friend. With this knowledge in mind, let's move onto consulting with your veterinarian to determine which product is best suited for your cat's unique needs.

Consulting with Your Veterinarian

Now that you've learned how to read labels and ingredients of cat calming sprays, it's time to talk about consulting with your veterinarian. It's important to communicate with your vet about any concerns you have regarding your furry friend's behavior.

They can help you determine if a calming spray is the best option for your cat or if there are any underlying medical issues that need to be addressed first. Your vet can also provide guidance on the pros and cons of different calming methods, such as pheromone sprays versus herbal remedies.

Some cats may respond better to one method over another, so it's important to find what works best for your feline friend. Remember that every cat is unique and what works for one may not work for another. By consulting with your veterinarian, you can ensure that you're using the most effective and safe method possible for calming your kitty down.

Moving forward, let's talk about how to use calming sprays effectively without causing harm or discomfort to your furry friend.

How to Use Calming Sprays Effectively

To effectively use a calming spray, simply spritz it in areas where your cat spends the most time to create a soothing environment that promotes relaxation. Here are some tips on how to use calming sprays effectively:

Use the spray before stressful events such as vet visits or car rides.

Spray it on bedding, blankets, and even toys to create a calming atmosphere.

Don't overspray - a little goes a long way!

Combine with other stress-reducing techniques such as play therapy and environmental enrichment.

Be consistent with usage for best results.

By following these simple tips, you'll be able to help your furry friend feel more relaxed and at ease.

In addition to using calming sprays, there are other things you can do to reduce your cat's anxiety and stress.

You can be the hero your feline needs by uncovering new ways to ease their worries and soothe their nerves. One of the best ways to reduce your cat's anxiety is through relaxation techniques. This can include gentle petting, massages, or simply spending time in a quiet environment.

You may also want to consider providing your cat with interactive toys that encourage playtime and exercise, as this can help release pent-up energy and promote relaxation. Another helpful tip for reducing cat anxiety is by establishing a routine. Cats thrive on predictability, so try to keep their feeding times, play sessions, and rest periods consistent each day.

Additionally, make sure they have access to plenty of fresh water and a clean litter box at all times. By implementing these tips into your cat's daily routine, you'll be better equipped to calm them down when they start feeling stressed or anxious.

⭐️Degrees of lewdly: Eden⭐️

Premise: You're a spooky place youtube explorer, and you get lost in a big scary forest! Eden voorhees lol. Reader is fem. Enjoy!

Miners DNI

You've never really gone hiking before and it's proven itself to be a lot more difficult than you originally thought it would be. You like to explore places you've never been, spooky places. more for the thrill. you started filming it and posting your videos on youtube. You usually take some friends along, but all of your friends decided to be little babies this time since the place you're exploring is extra creepy this time. It's a large forest 20 miles away from your city. You borrowed your mom's car to get here. you always tell them you're at a friend's house because they'd kill you if they ever found out you're putting yourself in possibly harmful situations. This forest is known for creepy sightings, disappearances, ghosts, and lots of other things your viewers would love to watch. You've been to abandoned hospitals, cemeteries, tunnels, all that good stuff. You don't think you'll actually see anything, but you brought a can of pepper spray just in case.

The wind howls, making the trees dance above you. The shapes that were once branches in the day have turned into long gangly fingers that desperately reach for you and the bushes now house entities with red eyes and fangs that you imagine want to tear you to pieces! "Wow, guys. This might just be the scariest one yet, haha. There's probably some sort of scp in here with me haha!" You try to keep yourself company by talking to your soon-to-be viewers when you post this, but it's really just to keep you calm.

"I'm a bit lost. The trail kinda disappeared somewhere around here, I think. there's just so much long grass and it's more of a footpath than an actual trail." you complain as you try to spot any familiar landmarks. It's almost impossible. It might be easier in the day for sure, but the night masks everything. You step over decayed logs and large roots, feeling worry set in. What if you're really lost!? Your thoughts come to an abrupt stop when you hear a strange sound not too far from where you're standing. Your blood freezes as you feel a cold sweat coming on. Maybe...maybe it's a person? And maybe they can help you?..or..a monster!? No, (Y/n), this is no time to be silly! That could be a person willing to help you before you get yourself completely lost!

Little did you know you were already a mile deep, walking in the wrong direction.

“I heard a sound. It could be someone who could help me get back on track.” You whisper. You turn off your video camera's flash light and carefully make your way to where you heard the sound, being careful not to step on anything that could alert whatever it is of your presence. You don’t want to startle it, just in case it's an animal willing to protect its territory from invaders like yourself. The sound came from below you. There's a rocky slope leading down to a river. You get down on your knees and peer between the long grass. You can't make out much in the dim moonlight... until you spot a giant of a man dragging a sack through the shallow water. His size alone sends shivers down your spine. Even from where you're crouching, you could tell he would dwarf you the way a cat would to a mouse. You examine him a bit more.The sack is stained in a dark colour that is seeping through the fabric and into the water. You don't dare move a muscle or even breathe. You can't believe your eyes. This can't be real. Are you in a horror movie?

You make sure he disappears behind the tree line with the mysterious sack before letting out a breath. You didn't want to accidentally alert him of your presence in any shape or form. He was probably just a hunter. Yeah, he could have helped you, but he also could have added you to the wet sack and you were not risking that.

You stand up and turn around, ready to get as far away from here as possible, only to bump your nose into a tree. The collision causes you to drop your camera. That's strange. You don't remember walking around a tree to look over the cliff. You rub your nose in annoyance. Wait a minute... This tree didn't have rough bark like the rest of them...Your brain blanks out. You've been in denial this entire time, your brain working extra hard to rationalize what's happening. Before you is a large torso. You can't even see their shoulders from how close you're standing, just a wide, firm chest. You crane your neck up and it takes you a good three seconds before your brain registers that you're looking at the man from before..and he's wearing a mask!

He looks down at you with a focused gaze. You let out a short scream and try to run away, but being within arm's reach of the giant makes it too easy for him to simply reach out and grab the back of your top. He lifts you off your feet with one arm and brings you to his eye level. He cocks his head to the side, observing you slowly. He looks down at the camera you dropped and places his large boot on it, pressing down and crushing it. You start to hyperventilate. He's gonna chop you up and wear your skin, he's gonna keep you in a dark hole and shout "It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again!" You thrash in his iron grip, pushing at his large hand and sobbing untellable pleas for mercy, but your begging falls on deaf ears. "I-I'm sorry. I-I'll leave, I promise! Please let me go! I-I didn't mean to bother you, I'm sorry!" You cry. Your little struggle seems to have made your shirt ride up a bit, showcasing your supple flesh to his thirsty eyes. His eyes laser focus on your bare skin.

To your confusion, his hand reaches to caress your skin, feeling the smooth texture before slowly moving up. You wiggle more, scared of where this is going. His hand soon finds your breast and cups it before giving it a squeeze. He shudders. His breathing becomes heavier as he continues to mess with your body, his thumb rolling over your nipple. All you can do is whimper and wiggle in his hold. his hand begins sliding down and you scream. You suddenly remember you brought a can of pepper spray, whipping it out of your back pocket and pointing it at his face. Then as you were about to press down and unleash the fire juice, it was gone. In his hand that was previously molesting you lies the remains of your poor pepper spray, crushed and bubbling pathetically. He was so fast you hadn't even realized he snatched it. You just stare at him in horror. To your surprise, he's not even mad, too preoccupied with the need to explore your privates. You hold his wrist and look into his eyes. He looks back into yours as if telling you to stop. You hesitantly let go, and he nods as if to tell you that you've made the right decision. His hand cups your pussy through your jeans, pressing in a bit at the entrance. He seems eager.

He lifts you higher and uncomfortably sets you on his shoulder, his hand on your ass to keep you in place. You don't even bother struggling. You'll wait for an opportunity. If this man wanted you dead, you'd be dead. You don't want to provoke him. From your spot on his shoulder, You notice that he's got a hunting rifle strapped to his back along with a machete. He has an assortment of things attached to his hips among them being a hunting knife and bullet pocket. You shiver. One more off-putting thing that's just about forcing bile up your throat is that he's also covered in a dark wet liquid. You haven't noticed till now, but you haven't been breathing so his smell has now come to your attention. He smells strongly of iron. To that, you're not very surprised.

He starts marching down the hill you were previously watching him from. You have no idea how you saw him disappear through the treeline and he still managed to sneak up on you. He picks up the large stained sack where he left it in favor of locating his little spying mouse. It smells awful, the meaty smell assaulting your senses every second. It's been 15 minutes and an opportunity to escape has not shown itself. This is it. This is how you die. Your body will never be found. Maybe in a few years in a shallow grave by some hiker if you're lucky. This inhuman mass of muscle is going to cut you up and eat you. Maybe even skip cutting you up. He could probably eat you whole as pre-workout. He lifts his leg to step over a large log, his grip on your ass slightly loosening just enough for you to catch him off guard and slip off his shoulder. You grunt as you fall into the dirt and leaves behind him. You scramble up before the giant can scoop you up. You run in a random direction. You just needed to get away from him, getting out of the forest was a problem for later. You didn't even think about how fast he'd be. How could someone be so big and fast!? He took off after you and suddenly, he was on your ass. You've never felt such a primal fear as he chased you like a hungry animal.

A large hand grabs your shoulder and rips you backwards. You fall on your back and stare up at the man now on his knees in front of you, his body completely casting a shadow before yours. He gets down on his hands, caging you too the ground, his body inches above yours. You stare into the holes of his mask and into his rabid eyes. He leans in by your neck. You stop breathing once again, you think your heart stopped. You feel something large and hard pressing roughly into your crotch. You hear him take a deep breath and smell you..."Smells nice." His voice is deep and rough, but it sounds like he rarely uses it. You scream and begin to cry again, not being able to take it anymore. You fight him with all your might. He grabs your wrists with one hand. You hear him chuckle a bit before his hand comes up to cup your check. He suddenly squeezes it and twists your face around to get a better look at your features. He grinds his hips against yours, teasing you of what's to come. He roughly releases your face, before standing to his full height and dragging you up with him. He tosses you back over his shoulder, this time with an almost bone-crushing grip. “Name.” His tone is commanding. When you fail to answer right away, his fingers press into the area on your crotch. Threatening to rip right through. “(Y/n)! My name is (Y/n)!” He hums in response.

Hot tears run down your cheeks as he walks back over to where he left his murder mystery sack. He navigates through the forest as he knows it like the back of his hand until he comes upon a clearing where his home stands. A lonely wooden cabin. He drops the gooey meat bag on the ground. You cringe at the wet sound it makes on impact. You peer over at the sack to see a human hand flop out. Before you could react, he slams his hand over your mouth painfully. "Shut up." He waits for you to nod before removing his hand. He opens his front door and steps inside. It smells musty, like old wood and man smell. Not bad, but not amazing either. He walks up his stairs and sets you on a very large bed. You take a deep breath in, your stomach sore from being jabbed by his shoulder for the entirety of the long walk.

He doesn't let you get comfortable though. His hands are on you in an instant, grabbing your clothes and ripping them to shreds like tissue paper, you're naked before you could even hold any of your clothes together. Hungry eyes leer over you through his mask. You feel his hot breath fan you through the bottom of his mask. "S-stop it, please! Don't hurt me!" You beg. As if to mock your plea, his rough hand grips your plush thigh a little too close to your cunt and squeezes it tightly before shoving it against your chest, making room for himself between them.

He releases you for a moment, only to unzip his uncomfortably tight pants. You shut your eyes and look away, only to feel the soul-crushing weight of his cock slam against your lower stomach. You writhe underneath him, small sobs and hiccups coming from your mouth every few seconds. He pauses for a moment but ultimately decides to continue. You peer up between your wet palms and see him rubbing the tree trunk between his thighs while looking down at your pathetic form.

"W-wait! I-I'm not rea-" He grabs your thighs and forces you closer to him and lines his cock up with your entrance, he slides it up and down your folds, causing you to shudder. He doesn't care if you're ready or not. You shut your eyes as he presses forth. You scream in pain. It won't go in. You're too tight, he's too big and you're dry. The tip can't even get through. You whimper in pain. It burns. You need moisture. He lifts his mask a bit and you get a peek of his jaw. It's noticeably sharp and covered in stubble. You feel his saliva plap against your poor dry cunt before he puts his mask back into place. He tries to enter you again. You yelp. He gets a bit through before he can't anymore. He sighs. He was trying to be gentle. He didn't want to break you so quickly...

He grips your thighs tightly. You feel his nails dig in. You barely have time to register the pain before you feel like you're being ripped in two. He's forcing his way in. You immediately let out a scream and begin spazzing. He just continues until he reaches his base, more than snug against your insides. Drool leaks past the corner of your lip as you stare off into space. He breathes heavily and stares at the bulge he created in your lower stomach. He brushes his hand over it and watches as you whimper and twitch. He pulls his hips back and watches it disappear before ramming himself in again and seeing it jab through your insides. He chuckles.

You lay there, unable to do anything but feel what he's doing to you. You lift your arm and place it on his lower stomach, hoping to stop him that way. You feel his rock-hard abs through his shirt and push. "You're...adorable...fuck.. you're tight." He groans before he slams himself deep inside and you clench around him. He hisses and struggles to pull out halfway, your insides trying to pull him back in. He slams in again and presses himself as deeply as he can, firmly hugging your cervix with his cock. Your eyes cross as he thrusts in and out, keeping a proper pace. Moans spill from your lips along with jumbled-up words he can't make out, all of which sound like music to his ears.

He leans over you, forcing himself snugly against you again, his mask right next to your cheek. He groans as he feels you twitch around him. "Feel..so good... was worried you'd rip... you're only bleeding a little." You can hear the smug grin in his tone.

It feels so good. You're so ashamed, feeling good when you're being raped by a maniac. You clench your tear-filled eyes as he pounds into your aching cunt. The knot in your lower stomach bursts as you cum. He moans as you tighten around him. He stills for a second, just enjoying how you feel before he pounds into you like a feral beast. You're surprised your pelvis is holding up. He grips your waist tight and grunts as he empties his balls deep inside you. You can almost feel yourself getting pregnant. You feel too full. Your stomach bloats with cum. You feel hot and fuzzy. Your pussy is so very sore and your legs are numb. He pants above you. "I've been thinking of getting myself a little wife like you." He says as he slowly pulls his still throbbing cock out with a wet 'pop'. "You're a pretty little thing and you take my cock well. Be grateful I'm letting you live as my cock sleeve." He stands up, towering over your crumpled body once again. "My name is Eden. Your duties from now on are cooking, cleaning, mending my clothes and taking my seed. Do not make me repeat these orders. Object and I won't hesitate to remind you of your place. I was gentle this time." His giant cock is still dripping your juices. You can't stop looking at it. Ge takes notice and climbs over you before grabbing your head and forcing you close to his groin. "I see you love cock. Lick it clean then like a good wife. go on."

You look up at him and hesitate a bit too long. You see anger flash in his eyes and you quickly envelop his tip in your mouth. He groans as you lick your mixed juices off, going as deep as you can without choking. He moans and grabs the back of your head. He stares down at you with such intensity that you can feel him burning holes into you. You suddenly feel your throat being invaded and your nose pressing into his pubic hair, nose pressing into his crotch. He moves you back and forth, face fucking you. You struggle to breathe properly through your nose. You let out muffled whimpers and cries, sending vibrations through his cock. He grunts in pleasure before you feel a load of hot thick liquid being shot into your mouth and down your throat. You're so tired. He slowly pulls his cock back and laughs at your exhausted state. Your head flops back onto the bed, your jaw and lips so incredibly sore and raw feeling. "Good girl." He says before your sight fades to black. You explored a bit too much.

Scaredy Cat vs Yellow Jacket nest

We have (had?) a very active nest in a sloped section of our yard, just above where the pumpkins were growing last month.

September/October are the very active months for these wasps, and they can be very aggressive.

I found a neat remedy online: at night, when everyone is in the nest, place a clear glass bowl over the opening. They will try to fly out during the day, seeing the sky above, but can’t go anywhere. They won’t build a new entrance, because this one doesn’t seem blocked.

It takes 3-4 days to kill off the population.

This was fascinating to watch with binoculars (scaredy cat), as hundreds of yellow jackets flew around under the clear dome.

But some were getting out. This was because the lawn around the opening hasn’t been mowed for a few weeks. Yellow jackets hate lawnmowers.

Four days passed, and the wasps seemed as angry as ever flying in the restricted airspace. Their numbers didn’t seem to diminish any.

So on to YouTube I went.

Dish detergent seemed like a good solution. The first video, the guy suited up in a beekeeping suit, poured some Dawn into a 5 gallon bucket of water, stirred it around, then went to the very active hole in the ground with the bucket of soapy water and a shovel.

He poured some of the water in the hole, then started digging to find the nest, pouring more soapy water as he went.

I don’t have a beekeeper suit, and digging into the ground looking for trouble didn’t sound wise.

Another video was by a landscaper, and made more sense to me. He simply poured detergent into the hole, then sprayed water from a hose into the hole, shooting down a couple of escapees that were flying around. Lots of soap suds at the entrance.

So last night we went out with a five gallon bucket of soapy water, removed the glass bowl, and poured the water in. We walked very quickly back to the house.

D thought the hive may be uphill from the entrance, and was concerned we didn’t get the entire hive.

This morning, sure enough, there was one wasp flying around the entrance.

So I got the hose, and the bottle of Dawn (cleans ducks, kills wasps). I poured a good amount of detergent into the entrance, that yellow jacket flying around, but not attacking. I then turned the water on and blasted the entrance.

Hopefully that’s the end of this episode.

I hate killing them, but they are/were too close to the house.

🐺❤️ He Ate My Heart Out ❤️🐺

*Rock eyebrow raise and Vine boom sound effect intensifies*

Sharandy my beloved,, oh how I’ve missed drawing these two together again (even though it wasn’t that long since I’ve last drawn them). Guess I just can’t quit these two.

Had the urge to draw these two again because I'm so sick and tired of seeing so much discourse and detractors about them as a couple on TikTok and YouTube. I’ve recently stumbled onto some edits of them getting a divorce, and while I respect others opinions on Sharon settling with a better man- y’all acting like Randy can’t get his act together and act like a normal husband towards her, which he’s done during the series like multiple times 💀

Though for the most part, I kinda blame the flanderization of him in recent years for this, especially with that one recent special where he bodyshames her, like, what the literal hell was that nonsense? I hate it sm, Randy would never do that 😣

My apologies if I sound like a broken record for saying this for the 200th time, Ik these two are an imperfect couple, but that’s what I like about ‘em. They don’t always act like a mushy, lovey-dovey, squeaky-clean, Disney-esque couple (not a jab at Disney couples, I live and breathe them, but you get my point). Both of them have their flaws like quarreling and bickering and that’s what makes their relationship realistic, because, newsflash, some irl couples act like that too. If their relationship were sunshine and rainbows all the time, then it would just be boring to watch. They’ve had plenty of moments to prove that they have a decent marriage. One of my DA friends said this a while back and I fully agree with them; a couple with their ups and downs is a lot better than a toxic marriage happening every single episode.

And at least Randy doesn’t treat Sharon awfully 24/7, cheats on her with other people, married her solely for her looks, or told her that he hates being with his kids. And imo they’re a healthier couple then the other parents like Staurt and Carol and Stephen and Linda don’t @ me plz-

So sorry if I went off on yet another tangent, I’m just your average online yapper who gets unnecessarily defensive over my fav fictional characters 💅🏾✨

My silly rant out of the way, when I was younger I had this habit of inserting my favorite franchises into random fairytales. I don’t know why I did it so much, I just liked the concept of it. I’ve done it with Mario, Banjo-Kazooie and Cuphead, now I’m doing it with South Park. The theme I wanted to go for was Red Riding Hood after binge watching those “Dark origins of your childhood fairytales” videos, bumping into some other fairytale AUs on here for some inspo, and listening to Monster by Lady Gaga and Won’t Bite by Doja Cat one too many times.

Wanted to go for a stylish but sultry look for Riding Hood!Sharon, and as for Werewolf!Randy I definitely went full on furry on him in this picture. I am not sorry at all. Now I just kinda picture some scenarios where he acts like an actual dog. Like, Sharon has him on a leash and takes him on walks, sprays him with a spray bottle anytime he starts actin’ up, or giving him some weed to calm him down when he enters feral mode. Randy is also very loyal and protective of his wifey, and will not hesitate to bite, scratch (and probably kill) you if you lay a finger on her. Also like the idea of him enjoying being scratched behind the ears and getting belly rubs haha

And I had a thought of having Stan playing the role of the huntsman, ‘cause I think it would be adorbs for him to help out his mama <3

An ADHD Morning

I set seven alarms so I don't oversleep. I couldn't sleep last night because I was researching ancient Rome on Wikipedia until 2am so I am bleary tired. My coffee maker is moldy from last week's brew and I don't even consider cleaning it, I just know that I won't be having coffee this morning.

I forgot to shower the night before, but now I don't have enough time to do it this morning, I got up too late. I use dry shampoo and hope my hair doesn't look greasy (it does). I scrape it into a messy pony tail that will give me a migraine but it's the only way it looks acceptable. My finger nails are stumps of dried blood because I picked at them all night. The inside of my lip is swollen and bleeding because I couldn't stop chewing on it, thinking about how I could ruin today. My eyebrows need to be plucked. My face is covered in acne because I never remember to take my makeup off before I fall asleep.

My bedroom is a sea of clothes, piled high to obscure the wooden floors. One hamper has some clean clothes in it, I know, but I have forgotten which one. My ironing board is under the piles somewhere, but it's broken, so I'll have to try to use the anti-wrinkle spray on the sweater I fish off the floor and hope it looks okay. It's already been forty minutes, how has the time passed this way? I will be late now, no hope of arriving on time. My sweater is covered in cat hair. Where is the lint roller? I look through the piles and can't find it. I spend ten minutes looking for tape to make a make-shift lint roller and it doesn't really work.

My dresser is filled with empty makeup tubes, used makeup wipes, glasses wipes, and used lint roller sheets. I pick out the products I use and quickly do my makeup on my unclean skin.

Purse. I need my purse. Which purse did I use last? Which has my wallet in it? I walk past the piles on the floor of my apartment, past the dirty dishes, past the mound of art supplies on my desk. I find my purse on the floor under my desk. Okay.

Socks? I need socks. My socks might show when I sit down in these too-tight too-short pants. I have to find matching ones. Clean ones? No, that's too much of a reach. I must just find matching ones. I search, digging through the floor piles. I find two that do not match, but are the same color. Good enough.

Fifteen minutes late. My cat chirps as he brushes against my leg. Oh! My little friend! He's so cute and sweet. My sister loves to get pictures of him, so I'll take one for her. Look up here, Blue! So cute. I should really update the instagram I made for him, I've met so many people who have the same type of cat. I should edit some photos of him today to post. He makes me so happy. I feel so lucky I get to have a cat and such a sweet, loving one like Blue. How many people get to have such a great pet? I'm so thankful for him, and I tell him so while I scratch his face the way that makes him purr.

I text my sister the picture. She tells me to have a good day. I try to find a cute GIF to send her to tell her to have a good day too. Here's one with Snoopy. She'll like that.

I also need to feed Blue. There are a dozen empty, smelly cans on the counter of cat food, but I pick a new one out of the box they were shipped in and put it in his dish with a random measuring spoon because all my other silverware is dirty.

Bag. I need to pack a bag. Laptop, keys, tissues, pens, notebook, headphones, charging cable for my phone. Is that everything? And my wallet, of course! Aha. That would be bad if I forgot that.

My shoes are dirty and scuffed but I don't have time to fix them. What kind of coat? I don't check the weather. I pick out a thin yellow one that I like. I've always liked bright colors. This will cheer me up to wear it. Bag, coat, keys, phone...where is my phone?

I have headphones on, listening to a YouTube video on two times speed, but I don't know where my phone is. I don't have time for this! But I can't leave without my phone.

It's deep in the covers of my bed. I don't remember putting it there between sending the GIF to my sister and now, but no matter. I found it.

It's twenty degrees and raining. I have no umbrella and my spring coat is incredibly inappropriate for the weather.

I've left my car on the street for a few days in an area that is only for 3-hour parking. The parking tickets are stacked on the windshield. I owe the city about $400 in parking tickets and I keep getting letters from the police that they'll boot my car if I don't pay. I messed up the days on my budget spreadsheet, so I won't be able to pay them for another month.

I have no gas. I check the miles my car estimates I can go with the amount left and compare it to what my GPS says. Just enough. Maybe. It'll be okay. I can't get gas now.

I forgot to brush my teeth. I forgot my laptop charging cable. I forgot to take my medication, and I forgot to bring my medication with me to take my second dose. When I finally arrive at my destination, I don't remember that my debit card fell between the seat in my car yesterday while getting coffee at the drive-thru. So I leave without it. I also forgot to put deodorant on.

I wonder what my coworkers would think of me if they knew about my messy apartment, my poor hygiene, my lack of planning skills. Will they notice my teeth aren't brushed? Do I have any gum, mints, anything?

My coworker sees me come in late with in an oddly-fitting outfit and messy hair, but I greet them happily when I come in. They say that everyone forgets things sometimes and lends me their laptop charger. I'll forget to return it, but they don't know that yet. They don't know about my kitchen or my bedroom or my clothes or my unwashed face or my parking tickets. They don't know that without my medication I will be useless for the entire day and get nothing done, making more work for them.

I'm an excellent actress. I pretend to be like everyone else, and somehow I pass the test every time. I'm a shy, kind, young woman - they would never suspect there is a moldy box of forgotten take out food in my backseat that I'll discover in a few days. People socialized as female are expected to be neat, organized, in control. They don't even consider that I might not be those things.

"What did you bring for the potluck today?" my coworker asks.

The ingredients I bought for the dish I signed up to make are rotting in my fridge, forgotten as soon as I put them there after shopping two weeks ago. I didn't think to buy them closer to today. I also didn't think to put the pot luck on my calendar.

I make up an elaborate story about how my boyfriend needed to be picked up from a far-away job site last night. She believes me and I feel I don't deserve it.

I wish I wasn't a good actress.

BSD Reincarnations

Remembering BSD trauma then realizing you can just reincarnate them into better lives

I swear Chuuya so pretty would be a model

I also like to think Atsushi is like the angel of a mafia family

My favorite idea my brain came up with is the abilities all having sentience but only few talk or take shape so when realizing their holders suffering created a new world for their reincarnation

I also mixed in other animes and shows Like Dazai is Gojo

but disguises as Dazai he is also Atsushi brother and like from another fanfic Itadoru brother

So dazai instead of being this mafia person he is a sorceror who has been raising his siblings for years

not to mention from another au on youtube Mori ability copied Ranpo and Atsushi to make Ranori and Atsum

i So they are there as well as Atsushi's twin and other half-brother and Elise is just Ranori step-sister that follows him around and is just the sister not to mention Ranori looks like a mature older Ranpo but they are in no way related and always mention it

Chuuya is reincarnated as a triplet. His clone/original is there and Arahabaki is also there as a triplet

The cl/og is like Shoyo Hinata and Araha is like Mafuya?(thinking of similiar hair colors)

Another idea is that Chuuya was scouted to be an idol so he took it as a way to get money for his siblings as they are orphans and poor.

So bam Ai Hoshino and I have way more complex cross-overs with this story

like Kenji as Player from Carmen Santiago

My favorite part about this is when I was thinking of Shin Soukou my first thought is that they were each-others first and last memory(present time)

Like Ryuu earliest memory he remembers is Atsushi hanging his bullies from the school and spray-painting terrible words with a tiger face as the signature

Also Byakko is Atsushi mom

Rashomon is Ryuu pet cat who can shapeshift

Ryuu has no lung disease and as a way to show he is a singer and model because Ryuu is pretty

. His theme song in this au is totally IT girl

This is a blog post I wrote on various grounding techniques. This link leads to my own personal website with other trauma articles. If you want to read the article but don't want to click an external link, it is available under the read more.

For anxiety, panic attacks, flashbacks and/or nightmares.

In those moments, it can be hard to think of what to do. Please consider writing yourself a to do list for those moments that you can go through. Whether it is things from this list I am sharing with you or your own grounding methods you have thought of. Write a step by step of how to get yourself grounded that you can have on your phone or notebook. This will make it easier when you're feeling panicked and/or stressed to navigate through calming techniques. Another tip is to try some of these things when you're calm. Don't try them for the first time when you're in a panicked state.

Physical Sensations

Put your hands in cold water (you could even hold an ice cube.)

Squeeze something soft like a blanket or stuffed animal.

Hold a favourite item like a stimming toy or something you love. If you are outside, consider picking up a leaf (or rock etc) and examining it and how it feels.

Put your hand over your heart and feel it. You are here. You are present. Inhale (through your nose) for four seconds and Exhale (through your mouth) for six seconds.

Cuddle or pet your dog/cat if you have one.

Pick up and touch items close to you. Feel the texture of them, the weight. Really focus on these traits.

Think of things you enjoy touching. I know someone who keeps bubble wrap around so they can pop it when they feel distressed.

Taste

Drink or eat something (if you can) with a strong taste. (Something really sour, maybe something spicy, or anything with a strong taste.)

Chew gum or suck on a mint or similar.

Let a chocolate or similar melt in your mouth. Really focus on the taste and the sensation.

Drink a cold or hot beverage.

Please be aware of your limits. Are you going to be able to focus on this? Is there risk of you choking if you panic and/or dissociate heavily?

Sight

What do you see now? What colours are the walls? What is the floor made of? Name five items in the room with you?

Flip through photos that you like

Read a book, article or something you enjoy reading.

Scent

Spray a scent that is non triggering like a body spray, or air freshener.

Have some essential oils to smell when you need.

Do not light a candle if there is a risk of you dissociating too much to remember it. This can be dangerous. Please only light a scented candle if you are certain it is safe to do so.

Smell your favourite foods, or candy with a strong smell.

Sound

Put on a non-triggering movie/show/youtube video

Put on some non-triggering music.

Listen to the sounds where you are and list them off. Are there bugs chirping outside? Are people doing work outside? Do you hear a heater/fan going? Etc.

Play nature sounds (there are apps that do relaxing sounds. Consider downloading one.)

Call a friend. (If this happens in the middle of the night, maybe ask a trusted friend to send you some recordings you can play of them saying calming things for you?)

Listen to an audio book or read a book you like out loud.

Other

Have an anchoring phrase/mantra like: “My name is ___. I am ___ years old. I live in ___. I am safe. ”

Have a soothing or distracting app you go to on your phone. (There are colouring apps and just nice games or activities to do.)

Try the 5-4-3-2-1 method.

Having a self-care box

Remember that even if it does not feel like it right now, you are going to be okay. You’ve gotten through this before and you can do it again. I believe in you. I hope you believe in you, too.

THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION FOR CAT OWNERS [[#catbehavior ]]

[llycaons]

does anyone have advice for saving money while owning a cat? I'm looking at the expenses and since I'm moving to a more expensive place the costs are stressing me out a bit. I know I should try to groom them and clip their nails myself if I can, but beyond that I feel like a lot of these costs are unavoidable

related - I saved the advice I got from my lovely mutuals about a year ago about this, but does anyone have good resources for being a first-time cat owner? like a basic basic stuff - youtube series or website would be the best right now I think. I'm most concerned aboutlike, training and correcting behaviors like spraying or clawing where they shouldn't

[shy-bee]

^left hole after graduating from high school to go to university

^found work in Tokyo (3 years ago)

^stop contact 6 months ago

^she was against the marriage

^maybe works at a brothel (22:26)

(prediction at 22:56 Sumio probably did something to the oldest daughter so she runs away from home to get away from him, traumatised. he -Sumio- gets caught on a ‘dirty’ site and pretends it’s a lead on the oldest daughter)

(24:50 i don’t want to watch this 😭😭😭 this is so weird!! why would you book a from, at a brothel house, with your supposed daughter??? that’s so wrong, if you where worried try contacting the place or wait until her shift is over and try to talk to her!! don’t book an appointment!! 🤢🤢🤢!!!!)

(26:02 this is so awkward i wanna die, what the hell 🤢)

^got scammed into the industry

(prediction at 38:58 he’ll kill the boyfriend to bring her home?)

(40:46 i hope they expect her!! QAQ!!)

(41:41 please give her a hug!!! QAQ)

(43:56 …… no surprised)

(46:48 .. somethings fishy..)

(prediction at 46:50 i don’t think the mother wanted the marriage, maybe she agreed because or the film crew… she doesn’t seem happy, or he told her to shut up and stop talking)

(46:51 … or am i being too harsh on him. sure going to a brothel to see you step daughter is weird, very weird, but maybe he’s a good person….? we’ll see)

(48:54 not cookie… oh gosh, don’t say that infront of the kids, when they’re eating!! 😭)

(49:49 reminds me of that case where everyone was scared/revered the oldest daughter and they turned a blind eye to her madness and even put lotion in her even after she died)

(50:30 not the children crying 😭😭😭😭!! what a background noise to see hands gently caring for the planets!)

(52:14 aren’t you over spraying that plant?)

(54:14 did his tell his wife that? was he hoping the 3rd to leave? you just got back the eldest why ask is they want to leave?)

(prediction 54:56 the 3rd daughter is possessed)

(prediction at 55:22 or the oldest son?)

(prediction at 55:38 maybe something bad happens every year? like a once a year curse? but the children brought up a ghost so i don’t know what specifically it is)

3rd Son with first husband Tuakaharu (don’t know if i spelt that right) died at the age 9 (in 2001, don’t know when this is set but was made published on youtube in 2015 so give or take a year)

(57:16 oh sh!t i think it is something once a year!)

2001 - son dies

2002 - husband goes missing

???? - Ringo being tricked

???? - Gouki’s mental state

???? - Rie’s hostility/domestic violence

???? - Remon’s (?) bike accident

^one year the cat dies

Present - Ryuta’s fall from roof

(01:01:32 maybe the photo he wanted was the ‘ghost’ photo? he seems to be more down on the ground about that’s possible)

(01:01:46 oh!! maybe the head injury ‘cleared’ his head so he can think more clearly?)

(01:02:24 a g-g-g-ga-ghost! hahahaha… sorry)

(01:02:28 hopefully we can see the photo, or the spooky of the ‘unknown’ is scarier. allowing us to imagine what scary thing is shown in the image, because everyone has different tolerances to different things)

(01:02:40 never-mind 😭 spoke too soon!)

(01:02:46 pffftttt! hahahahaha, hahahahahahahahaha!!! thanks to that zoom hahhahaha i thought it was a normal photo pffft so thanks! hahahaha)

(01:03:00 oh lord she’s become a ghost hunter hahaha! with that look maybe she’s the one behind it! hahaha! her voice suits the lazy fill of how this documentary would’ve been made if it where a real one!

… i fill a bit bad. i keep pausing to type, it’s probably keeping from getting sucked into the story! sorry! but i’m going to continue doing this!)

(01:03:08 burn the photo?)

(01:93:14 hahahhaahahahHahahHhHhhaahahah a omfg hahahahahahaha)

(01:04:48 a nice homely vide it wraps you up in a nice warm blanket!)

(01:05:44 hehehe sneaky cameraman!)

(01:06:18 👀☕️)

(01:07:08 it is nice to see that the children are more happy! but i have a feeling Rie is about to rock the boat. maybe the older siblings have a plan or something to mess with the new dad?)

(01:07:30 … what a waste of food. and i was right)

(01:08:02 i feel like i shouldn’t be watching this…

since it’s real acting though these fight seems are a bit funny looking since the kicks/punches look weak but the father is good at acting hurt)

(01:08:37 EYH!! oh my… that one he definitely didn’t actually touch her, but still bloody hell!)

(01:09:12 …pfft… sorry i just can’t help but think about the cameraman standing up close a personal at this scene through his camera lens being like ‘good sh!t’ while his face stays in moved)

(01:09:22 …hmmm oof line… i’ll keep watching but i do think this father isn’t as innocent as he seems)

(01:09:44 …. now i feel bad QAQ)

(01:11:00 how much do you how much do you bet that she’s gone missing just poped out from existence like the father?)

(01:11:18 maybe call the police or something?)

(01:12:28 don’t push her of the bridge! don’t! i see you! don’t you dare!)

(01:012:40 i was about to say you don’t need to apologise… but they both should really, neither are really in the right here.)

(01:13:18 wow “you are… Nothing.” wow! i should get that tattooed one me pffft)

(01:14:09 what does this mean?)

(01:14:30 (?) good question)

(01:16:22 awh 😭😭😭)

(01:17:50 i guess she needed the slap of reality? there is still 20 minutes so i’m uneasy)

(01:18:14 MISS!!! it’s not you place! it’s bad enough you’ve filmed all of this, don’t poke your nose into who’s calling who father!!)

(01:19:04 with what money??? you can afford a house but a nice van for a camping trip??

what are you kidnapping them???)

(01:19:22 oh my! that sure was a jump-scare!! was not expecting to see him outside of that room!)

(01:19:30 … wait why does he has his bat with him? does it bring him comfort after facing a traumatic experience so he brings it around with him to feel safe? i don’t know… i feel uneasy again, sorry big brother!)

(01:20:07 so cute!!! heart is melting!!!)

(01:20:28 eh! put both poles in before you bend it! you’re making it harder for yourselves!!)

(01:21:56 omfg lady!! don’t ask such a question! they are two different people, two different fathers! they’d be different so don’t compare them! ehy!

before she asked that though it’s nice to see the children except him! they have seen him put his foot down, so i can see how that gave them some reassurance!)

(01:22:20 awh her smile!! QAQ!!! so precious!)

…. that poor gosh!! 🤢😭 sorry had to skip that

(01:23:24 awh..! to have them all day that T^T i’m not crying you are!)

(01:23:42 pfffft hahahaha then it just pans to her awkwardly/creepily watching from a distance… ha…

maybe she should had a series where she stays with a family for a month and buy the end of the month they are all sawn together with her magic hands)

hehehe!! ✨fire✨

(01:24:08 are they really a family? i feel after all this they’ll be close together and have a bond no? a bit like the weasley family. to act like a family for so long you’d have an emotional connection to them so maybe the joy they’re showing is real?)

tbh i thought the announcement was going to be another child lmao

(01:24:24 maybe the oldest son did have something happen, the way he’s acting makes me think maybe he has something, not in like a mean/bad way.

it nice that he’s being included into the family’s things now :D)

(01:24:55 protect the fire from the rain QAQ)

(01:25:33 i wonder if they planned the weather)

(01:26:15 oh gosh 😭😭😭😭 so precious)

(01:26:27 why am i waving goodbye?)

(01:27:40 what’s going on??)

(01:27:55 oooo that neat! to have the ‘open door’ button on the floor, stops the germs from getting in the hands!

but what about escapees who scroll on the floor and people with no legs/in a wheelchair)

(01:28:30 …. that sight brings back memories)

(01:29:24 … sus … did he push her down so he could get her and her husbands life insurance?)

(01:31:26 maybe that was the ghosts plan, to now keep sending you to the hospital to make you stay in the house. the injuries becoming -worse?- so it’s gets more power and causes you to stay longer and it continues)

(01:31:51 ah! the eldest boy! eating with the family! very proud!)

(01:33:02 awh he’s also out there with the father!

i’m just worried the reason why i watched this was because another youtube video said that there was horror, or something like that and to watch it before the video, maybe i missed something in all this.. if so, oof!)

(01:33:19 pffft nothing to the actor, her dead eyes as selling this… well

01:33:22-24 i guess you could say there is warmth her looking at a family endearingly)

(01:33:28 the deadpan voice- so i’ve tried not to talk about it much- pffft-)

tuesday again 9/12/2023

this series not sponsored by murphy's wood oil soap but boy do i wish it was

listening

this song popped up as the first video when i opened accursed tiktok to figure out what the deal was with that german engineer lady digging a storm shelter in her basement. this is the specific recording i want but the second video with a slightly longer intro... u have got to see Abel Selaocoe in motion performing Ka Bohaleng/On The Sharp Side.

i feel like every time i see a video of a cellist they're doing some absolutely bonkers shit and producing sounds i did not know a stringed instrument could make

reading

i am constantly chasing the very high highs of raymond chandler's philip marlowe detective noirs. Human Target, a DC extended universe thing by Tom King and Greg Smallwood got real damn fuckin close.

i took thirty-five screenshots while reading these twelve issues. they are such a lush love letter to midcentury advertising. it luxuriates in period-typical stylized coloring in a way i do not see very often. i hope mr smallwood gets sucked silly every night.

one of the reasons for the tuesdayposts is to force myself to look at new things, bc sometimes i find shit i really like. i am remarkably unwilling to consume new things when i am not feeling good, even though new things i like are…not a keystone, but really up there holding together some arch in the viaduct of mental health or whatever.

anyway Christoper Chance is a man with a very specific skillset: perfectly imitating wealthy clients to lure out assassins. he takes a fatal does of poison meant for Lex Luthor and has about twelve days to solve his own murder before he dies. this is an EXTREMELY compelling reason for someone to haul ass through an entire noir novel in less than two weeks.

let's make some comparisons to other spy media i've seen in the last month. christopher reminded me a bit of loid forger from spy x family: same hypercompetent backup plans for backup plans and incredible disguise skills. im sort of...positively? fascinated by him, as opposed to the (also entertaining) train wreck of james bond's psyche slamming up against soft targets for two to two and a half hours. like there is womanizing in Human Target, but it is not the time-filling bond girl eye candy. do not worry, christopher FUCKS.

it is self contained within its twelve issues so i didn't have to read eighteen other crossovers and have encyclopedic knowledge of c- and d-listers from the silver age of comics. it was a very fair mystery. the twists and turns weren’t stupid. i know that’s not a terribly helpful observation but sometimes in a mystery…it takes a fucking stupid turn. most importantly imo it sticks its landing and understands that a noir is a subgenre of tragedy.

how’d i find it: has a pretty cover, stood out from the crowd on hoopla. americans, you probably have access to hoopla through your library!

watching

@andmaybegayer referenced the youtube channel About To Eat in a recent mondaypost and i was so enthralled by this man's confident, dulcet, soothing and mustachioed tones. i had forgotten that i could in theory make french onion soup like myself. at home. soup season will not begin here for many months here and even then it's kind of pushing it, but i would like to eat some soup without melting!!!

overall About To Eat's recipes are a bit beyond my skill level and ability to prepare things in one sitting without joint pain but they are a display of competence i find very fun to watch.

playing

ive rationed all my picture slots for other slots but i did finally obtain two of the country-specific fishing rods in genshin impact. they were extremely irritating to obtain but i trust you'll understand i'm quite pleased with myself.

making

unphotographable things:

reactivating the dried sourdough starter from the horrible woods apartment of 2021, unforch rn it does look like when my cat regurgitates her kibble

sprayed the new couch down with some rather nasty insectide just in casies, it is still degassing in my office with the fan at helicopter speed and the balcony door open and towels shoved under the inside door for another 24h, also made plans to dye a big canvas dropcloth and strategically pin it in place for a cheapo slipcover

coffee table specific unphotographable things:

finally finished cleaning all seven

had to violently strangle the urge to repaint certain inner sections and made peace with touching up the worst of it with an oil-based paint pen bc let's be real nobody is going to look closely at that but me

pried some corrosion off one of the little brass decorative thingies, now it looks bad in a slightly different way

photographable things:

now this is a fun little record cabinet. i haven’t seen many pieces out in the wild that have that sort of vertical bullnose detail. makes me think of thirties waterfall dressers with their molded plywood rounded upper edges.

i can’t decide if the veneer on this piece is starting to really go (it is heavily crackled esp on the sides) or it was once owned by a smoker. the photo below is of the THIRD round of cleaning this front panel after upping the cleaning mix to a HEARTY 2:1 water/soap, and this was not the worst panel on the piece. mostly it really just smells like old wood? i don’t THINK the innards are cedar, bc that would be an odd choice for a record cabinet, but it is an oddly fragrant base wood.

there are some details that make me think it was never a terribly high end piece, or was maybe repurposed into a record cabinet? the veneer is quartered but somewhat indifferently matched, it has very indifferent nailhead finishing, and im not sure if the casters and record slots were later additions. i think the little door catches are original, but they aren’t magnetic yet which starts ruling out some later mcm. i would hazard this was made right before or right after wwii, but realistically it could be early thirties-early sixties. no makers marks :(

i will refinish this eventually. a bit nervous about how the front bullnoses might come out, i don’t really want to fuck around with veneer repair or like. grain painting. that’s for insane ppl and antiques dealers and i am clearly neither

free of ghosts, spider eaten on the house no additional charge with the friends and family discount

Wednesday, October 23rd, 2024.

Would you rather visit The Eiffel Tower or the Egyptian Pyramids? I would be much more interested in visiting the Pyramids.

Would you be surprised if your most recent ex called you tonight? I probably wouldn't even answer because don't pick up numbers I don't recognize.

Do you need to lose or gain weight? I still need to gain a little bit of weight. I don't know exactly what I weigh (I haven't checked since sometime around February or March of this year), but going with an estimate based on that, I'm about 1 BMI point below normal. Obviously, I might need to gain more than that to feel my best, but we'll just see how things go.

Do you think you have a disorder but haven’t been properly diagnosed yet? No. In fact, I'm approaching a point where at least some of my previous diagnoses could be removed. I still struggle to an extent, but perhaps no longer at a "clinical" level.

What is the population of the city you live in? Approximately 111,000.

How many pairs of jeans do you own? I have a few pairs of jeans. Most of them are stuffed away in storage and I basically never wear them, but I do have a dark gray pair that I should wear more often…

When did you last vacuum your room? Monday afternoon.

Have you ever put on or lost a significant amount of weight? Both. I've relapsed and "recovered" and relapsed and "recovered" from my eating disorder since I was 14. "Recovered" is in quotes because even though I would put on some weight, the mental side of things was never fully resolved. I'm in a pretty stable place now, though. I've been through some things over the past year(ish) that would have had me running right back to old habits, but aside from a few dips, it's been a mostly upward trend. At least when it comes to the foreseeable future, I really can't see myself returning to the way I was. The desire is still there, but I don't want to give up the life I've created for myself for something that would be comparatively miserable.

On a scale of 1-5, how often do you curse? Maybe 2-3. It also depends on who I'm around.

What is the worst thing you’ve ever smelled? Probably dog shit. At the end of the day, we have to go around and empty all the trash cans at the shelter, and the dog poo cans are especially potent. Skunk spray is a close second. Yesterday, a woman brought in a kitten that seemed to have been sprayed. It's currently being housed in one of the bathrooms, and even though the smell isn't that strong, it's still not pleasant.

What’s your favorite social media platform? YouTube, Instagram, and Tumblr.

Name someone with brown eyes. Liv.

Do you know what your next injection will be? I have no idea.

Does anyone call you darling? If so who? No.

If you had to have a cartoon character tattooed to you what would it be? Maybe the Aristocat kittens. :')

You have to dye your hair two colours, what do you choose? Black and blood red. I would also consider doing something with pastels, but I can't decide on the colors.

If you could, would you look at your future self? No. I might see myself doing well and that would be a comfort, but what if I saw myself doing poorly? As difficult as it can be, I'd rather just deal with that unknown.

Who was your first serious relationship? I'm not sure who to count as my first serious relationship.

If you had to cut a parent out of your life who would you cut out? My mom. I don't want to cut her out of my life, but if push came to shove, then I would much rather have my dad around.

If you had to get a piercing right now what would you get done? Probably another lip piercing. I've had other piercings before (both eyebrows, bridge, and ears), but those didn't do well.

Who is the number 1 person/thing in your life? My dad and my cats (if it's okay to count cats as people in this case). As for a thing, volunteering.

What are two things you wish you never did? I don't know. I do have regrets and some of them are rather painful, but I try to look at them as lessons learned the hard way.

Would you rather have three personal wishes or world peace? Ahh fvck it. World peace. I might not care much about the world as it is (blah blah blah I'm going to die in 50 years and none of this will matter blah blah blah), but if I was presented with a magical opportunity to improve it for everyone, then I would probably take it.

What were/is your high school colors? One was red and white and the other was gold and white.

When someone sneezes, do you say “Bless you,” or “God Bless you?” Typically "bless you." But sometimes my dad will get to sneezin' up a storm and I'll just be like: blessin's, bleezin's, sneezus, my condolences, etc.

Do you ever look at someone cute, and automatically make a move? No.

What are two things you are excited to do in the near future? Lunch with my mom at Chili's. She's picking me up soon, so I might not have time to finish this survey before she does. Also, Halloween at the animal shelter. It falls on a Thursday, which is normally one of my days off, but I'm thinking of going in anyway and taking Friday or Saturday off instead. Oh, and I know this only asks for two things, but I'm also looking forward to going to the Mountain Park tomorrow. I'm so glad my dad and I have turned it into an almost weekly thing.

Do you live in a house, apartment, or another type of arrangement? A house.

Are you one of those people who like to spell out numbers? It depends.

Who was the last person (if anyone) you said Happy Birthday to? Brianna, a woman who works at the animal shelter. She had her birthday just a little bit ago.

Do you have Photoshop? If so, how often a day do you use it? I don't.

Do you watch any shows that you know your parents wouldn’t approve of? My mom might not approve of some of the political stuff I watch.

Do you plan your meals in any way? I pretty much eat the same things day in and day out with relatively little variation, but there's still some planning that goes into it. I have to buy the ingredients, etc.

Were you in the scouts when you were young? Yeah.

How many people could sleep in your home? (Not counting floor space; beds and couches only) Depends on how squished you want them to be.

Have you ever made a hole-in-one at mini-golf? I don't recall.

What genre was the last song you listened to? Who provided the vocals? Classical. There were no vocals.

If an ex said they hated you, what would you say? Idk.

What would you do if you found out your most recent ex was in a relationship? Last I knew, they were in a relationship.

Truthfully, is there someone you used to date that you miss? Yeah. There are two people I miss. I wouldn't want to reconnect, but…y'know. They still have a place in my heart.

If you could go forward in time and see your life 5 years from now, what would you hope to see? Hopefully even healthier, working at the animal shelter, possibly living in my own apartment…

Who came over last? My mom. I just got back from the lunch outing I mentioned above.

Has one of your friends ever tried to “hook you up?” No.

What is your card game of choice? I don't have one.

What is your favourite books series? It's not exactly a series, but books by Joshua Cutchin. I think I've read all but his most recent release.

If you eat oatmeal, do you add water or milk to it and what’s your favorite flavor? Most of the time, I just add water. I also use plain oatmeal more often than not and just flavor it with other things (peanut butter, fruit, chocolate syrup, etc), but as far as flavored packets go, probably brown sugar & cinnamon or peaches & cream.

Was the last video you watched on YouTube a music video and if not, what was it of? It was "Varsity Boos! Homecoming Haunts and School Spirits" by Belief Hole.

Has anyone you know personally ever won the lottery and if so, how much did they win and would you or have you ever played the lottery? No.

What was the last thing someone has sincerely thanked you for? I'm not sure.

What band, celebrity, etc. do you know the most information about and who would you like to learn more about? I know nothin 'bout nothin. I can't really think of anyone I want to learn more about either.
