Oh yeah y’all want to know another reason I chose “Moose” as style’s cat’s name in the OJV? So it’s referenced many times that Moose acts like a living heating pad, and irl my heating pad is shaped like a moose

One day I'll adapt Dr. Seuss' Thidwick The Big Hearted Moose but it stars Micolash.

Why this hot abomination, you may ask?

Just because of a few choice phrases.

I think it'd be easy enough. Thidwick the moose has all sorts of crazy animals take advantage of his generosity to live on his horns. The guests weigh him down and threaten his life. And the kicker is in the end, hunters try to kill Thidwick for his horns and Thidwick sheds his horns and leaves them behind, running free to safety.

The thing practically writes itself....

Добро пожаловать! [Dobro poʒalovat'!]

Dr. Seuss wasn’t know in the CIS territories until they integrated into the rest of the world and got the Cat in the Hat film. But turns out there was an obscure cartoon created before the collapse of the shithole of evil. It’s one of those glass painting cartoons with their distinct soft and dreamy picture. Already fuzzy and then all the transfers are 480p. The best version i’ve found is the…

I questioned removing thidwick alongside the other books I didn't include for racism reasons but thidwick is interesting because it doesn't contain racial stereotyping or anything like that, it just has a shitty conservative message. kids books with "bad" messages have always been kind of fascinating to me, and when I was a kid thidwick read like a parody to me rather than a serious book that was trying to pick on squatters and other unhoused people (which i think is certainly a valid analysis due to geisel's other views at the time it was written). I doubt anyone would say it's their favorite but I'm curious if other people read thidwick when they were younger and what they thought about it

Needed to do a little search to learn this is most likely Thidwick

I was flipping through this April 1954 Children’s Digest and hey! A Dr. Seuss story — Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose!

I just thought on doing a slight redesign on Fred the Reindeer from the 2018 version of The Grinch making him fit more on the source material than Illumination

I got some inspirations from the yaks from Horton Hears a Who (who are from the Dr Seuss A to Z) and Thidwick the Moose to fit in the style of Dr Seuss and shows how he would look like if he appears in the book

Asking this knowing it will break my heart- Stan being a Vet Tech while being the biggest animal lover and extremely sensitive must be ROUGH.. is there any specific times he’s been really affected by something that happened at work 💔💔

I know Ky and Moose will help their boy though 🤓

Oh my god YES holy shit our boy OJV Stan gets so attached to every animal he works with and like Wendy runs the front desk and has totally implemented a rule that Stan does NOT get to see any pets coming in for euthanasia. The whole clinic squad knows that would break his heart. Stan is such a good pet doctor man and his patient’s humans love him too, like a sweet old lady with a cat coming in and he’s like “uh oh Fluffy did you get into the yarn box again” “I’ll tell ya, I don’t know if she ate any of it this time but I figured you could check” lmao. The main vet handles most of diagnosing and everything, but a lot of the regulars request Stan to assist because he’s AWESOME at keeping the patients calm. They all adore him as they should.

Like even when a patient is super nervous and panics and even hurts someone (I’m never getting over the fact that this boy got his ribs broken and was more worried about the horse than himself lmfao) he LOVES those animals.

It does destroy him when there’s an emergency and he can’t save the critter. I’m a lot like Stan in that I’m a vegetarian animal lover fantasy dork, which this why I’ll never write out an animal death (hence why we’ve just decided Moose is immortal), and I have a headcanon about a time a pet death really upset him.

Someone had been a regular for years at the clinic with a parrot named Quito. Quito was old as hell, his favorite word to squawk was “fuck”, and he would trill the national anthem and Stan found him FUCKING HILARIOUS. but Quito had lived a longggg life and his human eventually had to make the decision to put him down because he was dying. Stan was devastated for real. Like yes it comes with the job, and the staff knows him well enough to make sure he doesn’t see any of the dead animals, like this is the man who starts crying because a sick puppy on the exam table wagged it’s tail at him (oh my god y’all he’s so good at petting creatures he knows exactly where to scratch fuck ojv Stan is the most precious boy) and after that parrot passed on, he started sobbing in the back room, had to go home early.

My boy called Kenny on the drive home and THANK GOD it was a Saturday and Kyle wasn’t at work, bc Stan immediately wrapped himself around Ky and just held him, one hand on Moose’s little head, begging them both to “please never die” (holy fuck i am crying. It is 4 in the morning and I’m genuinely struggling to see because I’m crying) and if you’re familiar with the Moose origin story, u know that that kitty is named Moose because Stan, in a depressive slump, had been reading his favorite kids books and “Thidwick The Big Hearted Moose” was the one he’d been reading the day before someone brought a certain little brown kitten into the shelter he was volunteering at. And Kyle, ever perceptive, knowing his sbf inside and out, seeing he’s really in need of comfort, reads him (and Moose) that Dr Suess book, about the moose who let all the woodland creatures make a home in his antlers. Because that’s Stan.

I had the honor of doing some artwork for the annual Dr Seuss Day / Read Across America Week, and to donate them to my local elementaries and middle schools. I felt it'd be a great opportunity to offer something to kids that may enjoy em!

littlegreenplasticsoldier reblogged your post “Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose” and added:

Yes, that was I. I. Me I. I am equal parts sorry and not. I’m sure you are too. What’s is this glory? What did we? Yet, we did. We did. And you’re probably thinking This ain’t what I came here for! Oh but you did. And you know it.

@littlegreenplasticsoldier - The fates knew what they were doing when they separated us by not just continents, but, like, super far away continents. Incendiary minds this volatile shouldn’t be in close proximity. #big booms
