#This isn't about that

[animebookworm16]

Jinshi and Maomao are both, fundamentally cats.

But they are two very different kinds of cats.

Maomao is a feral forest cat that once introduced to humans only knows how to show affection by affectionately saying "Fuck you"

Jinshi is a purebred of some form or another that has been groomed and cared for from the moment it was born.

This is of course without going into either of their respective traumas and based solely off of their vibes, how they react to each other and other people.

Because Jinshi fully expects everyone around him to pay attention, that is a pampered house cat. Maomao would rather die than have more attention on herself than necessary, that is absolutely a feral cat.

And that is why I love seeing the two of them together and their relationship. Because due to prolonged exposure to Jinshi, Maomao sees there are more ways to show you care than just affectionately screaming "Fuck you!" And likewise, Jinshi gets to see that sometimes being more aggressive and selfish isn't always a bad thing.

Watching Kimiko and Frenchie kiss and being slightly disapointed and uninterested because I saw them as like qpps even though i know that despite this series acting progressive, the main couples are all very heterosexual and I really shouldn't have expected anything else

There are replies I want to get to this weekend but I am also having extreme “I don’t want to be here I want to quit everything Marvel including this blog and go” feels so I might not be around much. Or they might totally pass by tomorrow. It’s a pretty frequent occurrence and I can bounce back and forth from “I just wanna quit” to “I LOVE IT HERE IM NEVER LEAVING” within the same damn day, hence why I don’t post about the former much. It would get very irritating very fast to others, I’m sure, to be reading me going WAH I WANNA DELETE all the time and not doing shit; I know I feel that way when other people do it. And this is of course no small part influenced doubtlessly by the fact I’m on my period and it was rainy today.  tl;dr I am being EXTREMELY MOODY but I know why and I know it’s gonna be transitory like all the other times, so maybe I’ll be around this weekend and maybe I won’t.  In other news, Bean is Bean. I saw her on her wheel. I still haven’t seen her actually RUN on it and I’m not sure she still can, but it makes me happy to see her at least just chilling there because it means she has the will to. Custard’s lump is a bit bigger but she seems alright. Sugar also has a small lump under her arm. For those unaware, rats and mice are EXTREMELY tumor-prone, and female rats in particular are basically living factories for mammary tumors, so while this is not good, it’s not really shocking either. I’ll basically just be monitoring them but at the moment, it doesn’t justify the risk of surgical removal which is quite a gamble with small animals.

i think one of the earliest signs of our being in the shitpost timeline should have been the thing where the South Park guys are two of the best musical theatre writers of their generation

Sometimes I wish we would start calling out the performative radicalism on this site for the poser bullshit it is. "Remember, it's always morally correct to kill a cop!" "Don't forget to firebomb your local government office!" "Wow, it sure would be a shame if these instructions on how to make a molotov cocktail got spread around!"

Okay. But you're not killing cops or firebombing government offices. You are posting on a dying microblogging website to a carefully-curated echo chamber that has radicalized itself into thinking that taking the absolute most extreme position on any subject is praxis but that anyone discussing the most practical way to effect actual change is your sworn enemy. You do not have the street cred OR the activist cred to be talking about killing cops, babe.

she's singing in another room and my dog is asleep at my feet. my grandma asked me why i haven't found a man yet and i laughed. oh, you know. i like my house clean.

my girlfriend is also my man is also "my partner" if i'm in a professional setting. yesterday we went to a ren faire and a man mimed at me - you're together? and at my delighted nod, his baffled, you're gay? made me laugh. a woman with rainbow hair said i love the two of you together. you're both so beautiful it's absurd.

my dad introduced my partner as my "..... friend. or whatever" the other day. he knows we're dating. in the same way, i was never able to get my sister's husband to stop saying that's gay like it's 2008. he still uses the word fa***t, and my sister's defense of him has always been well, he's just kidding.

my lover and i dance to old music in a tiny kitchen. we judge new music together and take food critique very seriously. we watch love is blind before we fall asleep and agree that if they had a queer season, it would be bloody but also make for excellent tv. of fucking course queer people would know someone for only 2 weeks and agree to get married. what are you saying.

at a bar with friends, a man puts his hand on my wrist. got a boyfriend? and yes, i do have a boyfriend, she's amazing. i am texting her while i wander around a gas station named after geese. i am visiting a swing state for a wedding. in the candy aisle i overhear: she's actually like a lesbian it's disgusting. two teenage girls with packaged sandwiches in their hands, giggling. no literally, like. i'm not, like. okay with her being there while we're all, like, naked and changing.

my girlfriend and i tailgate, drink gin and cider out of cups. from the frat group beside us, a man corrects himself with one of his friends: bro, i mean, nonbinary entity, and it makes everyone around him laugh, myself included. he razzes his friend the same way i would have killed for at 19 years old - like nothing happened, he continues: you apply sunscreen like an alien. he does a little sassy (and fairly accurate) dance interpretation of the motion. his friend is laughing so hard they're crying.

i am lucky, i live in a safe neighborhood in a safe state. my masc passenger princess comes up from DC. i drive her for an hour to where all the leaves are a violent arrangement of color. we walk along the trails, letting autumn into our blood. in this part of the state, there's a lot of pickup trucks and trump signs. when we chastely kiss before getting into the car, i accidentally make eye contact with a woman holding her child's wrist. she looks disgusted. she looks fucking pissed.

two hours later my girl and i are eating dinner on a patio, soaking in the last warmth of new england sun before the chill of winter sets in. we are giggling and trying to talk through plastic vampire teeth. at another table, i see a young woman sit up straighter. i watch her watch us. she blushes and takes her partner's hand from across the table. shy, like the taste of evening has just become something deeper.

it's worth it for this moment, i think. my lover is still humming the same song she's been singing for four days straight and i don't want to kill her for it. her guitar is beside my bed. her toothbrush is in my bathroom. in a few moments i will make us lunch. we are lucky enough to have found each other. it is lucky enough to be in love.

Revelations - Little peek at a longer continuation to my Stan & Bill accidental internet buddies comic!

After the reveal, Stan initially doesn't want to tell Ford his (former) internet best friend was Bill Cipher, because he doesn't want him to worry. Stan later doesn't want to tell Ford because he (and Bill) would rather die.

"AO3 doesn't need a "dislike" button"

Um, actually, it already has one. Depending on your specs, it might look a little different but over all it looks kinda like this:

You can find it at the corner of your screen, which corner is dependent on your layout.

Anyway, if you dislike a fic, you can hit this Dislike Button until the fic goes away. It really is pretty amazing actually.

doing shit alone will have people acting like you're the bravest human being who has ever existed. "omg I could never 😖" I'm eating. I'm going to the cinema. it's not a fucking papal conclave.
