#SASHA THE CHRISTMAS TIGER

[thedenofravenpuff]

Met the real life Sasha the Yuletide Tiger today! At the locale zoo in Aalborg, Denmark.

What an honour!

Be sure to leave raw steaks out for Sasha the Christmas Tiger.

The Reindeer in the room

Rudolf is bullied and excluded.

This only ends when it's foggy and Santa is like 'Hey nightlight nose, I don't give a fuck about you except this one time, get up there and hope that global warming causes more fog and you're not getting turned into venison after I no longer need you'.

It's not established that after this one event the other Reindeer now accept Rudolph or go back to being a hateful herd of bastards.

The correct response would be 'Fuck you fat man, talk to my Union Rep'

Sasha the Christmas Tiger enters the room: "Am union rep! We will now be seeing who is on naughty list, da?"

Bought wrapping paper and cards for Christmas that features a Christmas Tiger and I can't help thinking it's a reference to Sasha the Christmas Tiger (you better watch out!)

You may also notice a kiwi bird on the card. This is because I'm in New Zealand, which is not a country known for our tigers, so I honestly can't imagine why else Sasha the Christmas Tiger is there aside from someone working at the company is a Tumblr Resident

Is it like, morally okay for me to make my kids believe is Sasha the Christmas tiger instead of santa?

For the past few years, in the spirit of the Easter Bunny and Sasha the Christmas Tiger I have been pushing my own holiday-based creature, Belinda the Birthday Ferret. The lore of Belinda is that she's a ferret who visits on your birthday and brings gifts in exchange for eating your socks. Please feel free to incorporate into your own celebrations, it would mean a lot to me.

My posts

I am so sick lmao. I mean, I'm fine; it's not covid, it's just some kind of sinus bullshit that turned into a bad sore throat very quickly, and we've managed to treat it early. But I am very tired, and now (being sick myself) I can't even go visit my nephew in the hospital. Now that he's getting decent care (document the care or lack thereof you get, if you can), he's improving a lot, although I don't know when he'll be able to come home.

As such, the most/only interesting thing I've written is a Patreon Future Vision tier newsletter about what I'm working on. I do have a finished short story I can post later in the month, once a contest regulation has expired. I'm just thrilled that I finished something, honestly.

However, my queue got ahead of me--I had a couple clusters of posts that I intended to do my own posts about (see below), and then. Well. We'll circle back around to those at some point.

(All I said was "It is my wish for you and all of us that the bullshit stops soon" and it got 900 notes, so apparently we are all Going Through It right now.)

Christmas on Tumblr is the best way to experience Christmas:

Sasha the Christmas Tiger: yes good

"The posting on this website is gonna be inSANE when Henry Kissinger dies on January 22nd, 2024." Well...

I realized a while ago that the massive dysfunction spiral I went into from, like, 2016-2022 was autistic burnout (surgery and covid: not helping!), and I had these two posts queued as a springboard for talking about that. OOPS:

Autistic burnout: a guide

Autistic burnout recovery

Something else I meant to write about--posts on physical health, mobility, and/or chronic pain:

If you are dealing with deep fatigue and chronic pain: "you can exercise. you just need to vastly vastly change what the word[s] exercise movement activity mean for you."

If you sit hunched over, do this stretch for your back

Two important statements: "This is a high quality and deeply unpleasant piece of art" and, conversely, "It’s beautiful but I don’t like it."

I just really liked this Cerridwen art

You cannot kill me in a way that matters

Sasha the Christmas tiger

Propaganda under the cut:

You cannot kill me in a way that matters: "you have no idea what this has done to my vocabulary”

“I think this is the one that started the whole "raw lines" category.”

Sasha: “Starts off cute, gets better with added art, shows up every year on my dash and makes me happy”

Iori, scrolling tumblr and seeing the post of Sasha the Christmas tiger: Sasha the Christmas tiger my absolute beloved

Chizuru, behind him: Ah, a splendid specimen of the Yule Cat.

Iori:

Chizuru: Scientific name Felis navidad, of course.

How far out do you guys queue up your date related posts? Like, I scheduled my reblog of Sasha the Christmas Tiger last year, and I have an Ides of March post scheduled, and I guess that's probably not out of the ordinary, but I also have one scheduled for 2028.
