[cheezyharu]

Lmao yeah. I be scrolling through Twitter when suddenly,

God Dance Jumpscare. Too bad they’re overshadowed by NULCTRL

Holy fuck you weren't kidding.

(And also tbf NULCTRL is just more famous ig :V, honestly I never expected to see FSGD got into any rhythm game...)

Something something this shit happened again, but yada yada I think it was vaguely understandable given what I've just done- my power supply figuratively exploded and i'm more impressed than freaked out because it's literally not even slightly warm???

Anyway- me and my VA friends have set up a modded Minecraft server with Figura on that list so I decided to up an model the Long Quiet as if I had any previous experience with 3D software, have this PSX styled gif since I'm now on my shitty ARM processor laptop finishing him off :P

Idk if this counts so it’s under a readmore rather than a tag but there’s eye contact below

My favourite thing about this gif is that he really looks like just a guy head on in dark backgrounds; ‘we’re just normal men’ type of goober I swear-

"Bella looks like a child"

"Bella should've been recasted they don't look like adult enough"

Fuck right off, they definitely looks so much more mature and older.

Do you miss the Pokemon GO days but feel done with the game?

Here's an alternative for you:

-Download the Merlin app.

-Make an account with Cornell lab of Ornithology.

-Go for a walk.

-Hear a bird? Hit 'Sound ID' and let the app do its thing.

-Hit 'This is my bird' and follow instructions.

Congrats! You just logged a bird sighting! Now go do another.

A world that sends you reelin' from decimated dreams Your misery and hate will kill us all

Just because....

... an animal doesn't bite...

... or a bird can't fly....

... doesn't mean they never will.

Piping hot take apparently but. Maybe if you're going to criticize a thing for poor writing you should actually watch it first

[k66-official]

Oh? Dororo, you have a phone?

I think our phones are connected to the Kero Ball, or something like that? I've not looked into it much, to be honest.

I think learning how to identify birds brings a lot of joy into life.

A few years ago, I could only identify the really obvious birds around my house. I could spot the cardinals in the trees calling for their dull colored counterparts. I could watch the bluejays cause mischief and annoy the squirrels. If I was lucky, I would hear the pilliated woodpecker laugh at my mom's attempts to photograph him.

But in the last year or so, I've really made an effort to learn about the birds where I live. And it's made everything more colorful, more vibrant in a way. Like little joys I spot on my day to day.

A few days ago, we figured out there was a sharpie (sharp shinned hawk) by the house. We also saw the first painted buntings of the year, although that was after we spotted the first indigo buntings.

Yesterday, at our new house, we could hear the crows and the vultures, as well as a scissor-tail fly catcher, a cardinal, and a red winged black bird somewhere in the cow field behind our house. It was really nice too because they just got new cows!

On our way back, we saw a pheboe on a fence. I love their patterns.

We passed a different cow field, and there was a red winged blackbird doing a mating dance on a tree stump for a female that we couldn't spot.

And just now, I saw a crow strut around with a piece of bread in his mouth in the abandoned parking lot of a gas station.

I really think that learning to identify the small things makes everything more entertaining, you know?

it is november, and yesterday it felt like it was supposed to be snowing. in boston, november used a winter month, not a fall month. it is supposed to be chilly; rarely capping over 45F. it is a sweater-and-jacket month. it is a "maybe a scarf too" month. in my childhood, november meant blizzards and sleet.

it did not snow. tomorrow the weather predicts a high of 76.

i have spent so many years of my life studying the longterm possibilities of climate change - the culmination of capitalism wreaking havoc on the bodies of people, animals, plants - but every so often i am still shocked by something small and personal.

in a hundred years, when someone goes outside in boston - will they know the feeling of "snow in the air"?

i know it's a learned feeling, a sensation that maybe only longterm experience can teach. a few years ago, i was walking with my friend who had just moved up from the south. i said it smells like snow and she gave me this look like - what the fuck. i said it feels like snow too, which didn't help. she looked up to the bright blue sky and then back at me and then back at the sky. 12 hours later, we had 3 inches. you can just tell if it's going to snow.

except i can't tell, anymore. i stand outside in a tee shirt and watch my dog dance around a lake. we're in a drought and the skin of the water has peeled back twenty meters. the lake is tamed, quiet, puddlelike and sour. my pokemon go app warns there's a weather condition in my area.

my dog gets too hot from running and sits in the water and i want to laugh about his long frame and how awkwardly he sits - and i can't. some simian part of my brain is scratching the walls. it was supposed to snow. it was supposed to snow, but now it's warm instead.

during the last full solar eclipse, the dogs and the birds and the crickets went crazy under utter darkness. we laughed at them then, promising it will all be okay in a moment. but some part of me is still locked in that long night: some animal sensation.

something is wrong, my body says. i can't afford eggs or rent. i go outside to watch a sunset and listen to birdsong. i don't bring a jacket. allergies are killing me this season, allergies i didn't have as a kid. everyone comments that halloween has started to feel strange, offkilter. that it's hard having "holiday cheer." my body thinks it's april, and then it thinks we're in september, and then june.

something is terribly wrong, she whispers. go outside. it is supposed to be snowing.
