#and oh no i love them

[hellenhighwater]

Hey Hell! Can you please explain how the cats that you talk about relate back to you cause at some point I was certain that you hasd at least five ?

Yeah, I forget how many of you are new here and this is probably confusing.

I have two cats. Their names are Malice and Vice; they're three years old, and they're not related. I adopted both of them when they were kittens, after the passing of the best cat I will ever own (Nimitz, the Terror of the Underbrush, in May of 2020). They are my permanent cats; I will have them until either I die or they do. Vice is a grey longhair male; Malice is a black longhair female. Both of them are mutts, but Vice looks like a Nebelung and Malice could pass for Chantilly-Tiffany, if you squint.

I occasionally post my mom's Himalayan/Ragdoll cross, Eleanor, who comes from purebred lineages. She's terribly fancy and I love her a lot. She lives with my parents, but my mom sends me pictures frequently and I often petsit.

I am also currently fostering! Right now I'm down to my final three foster babies (Blouse/Queen Skrungle, Maladict, and Jade) but I've actually had more-or-less three batches of fosters since I started in May. I may have a couple more foster kittens this year, but I'm likely to pause on fostering when the winter holidays make it too complicated for me to be able to provide reliable care. With the foster kittens, I keep them until they get big enough to be spayed or neutered, with is generally at the 3 lb mark. The current babies are ready for that, and I'm having a hard time letting them go! I really want these three to find good homes, they're such fantastic cats. If you're in MI, hit me up!

Honorable mention goes to my pet doves, Arson and Larceny. I don't post as much of them because 1. they live outside when the weather is nice, and will only be back in my house after first frost, when the outdoor aviary is no longer an option and 2. I really just let them do their own thing. They're a mated pair and they don't want anything from me aside from basic needs.

Apparently the local university’s undergraduate entomology course sends students to catch insect specimens at the same place I like to go birdwatching, which explains why I saw three enormous frat looking dudes with tiny bug nets and overheard one emphatically say “bro BRO I told you we already have enough lepidopterans”

neocities guide - why you should build your own html website

do you miss the charm of the 90s/00s web where sites had actual personality instead of the same minimalistic theme? are you feeling drained by social media and the constant corporate monopoly of your data and time? do you want to be excited about the internet again? try neocities!!

what is neocities?

neocities is a free hosting website that lets you build your own html website from scratch, with total creative control. in their own words: "we are tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other on boring, generic social networks that don't let us truly express ourselves. it's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless, monetized, data mined, monitored addiction machines and let our creativity flourish again."

why should I make my own website?

web3 has been overtaken by capitalism & conformity. websites that once were meant to be fun online social spaces now exist solely to steal your data and sell you things. it sucks!! building a personal site is a great way to express yourself and take control of your online experience.

what would I even put on a website?

the best part about making your own site is that you can do literally whatever the hell you want! focus on a specific subject or make it a wild collection of all your interests. share your art! make a shrine for one of your interests! post a picture of every bird you see when you step outside! make a collection of your favorite blinkies! the world is your oyster !! here are some cool example sites to inspire you: recently updated neocities sites | it can be fun to just look through these and browse people's content! space bar | local interstellar dive bar creature feature | halloween & monsters big gulp supreme peanutbuttaz | personal site dragodiluna linwood | personal site patho grove | personal site

i love that i read SO many jayvik fics about the divorce beginning with jayce being horrified at what viktor had done with the hexcore, only for it to turn out that jayce actually did not give a SINGLE fuck, didn't even flinch at the sight of his hand and leg, and was ecstatic when it ended up saving his life. i am absolutely obsessed
