Baby season kicking my ass this year.

[boxofwaspss]

brothers kissing btw

thinking about dreammare being soft with each other.... also thinking about dream, so bad at taking care of himself getting sick and nightmare deciding to take care of him (before truce or not.) If before truce, the 'trope' of him kidnapping him- just to take care of him. He lets a deliriously fevered Dream cling to him, since he won't remember- (and pretends he didn't miss this. Didn't miss him. Hes a liar to his core)

“Well, aren’t you a sight for sore eyes,” Eddie calls out before he reaches him, his smile all teeth and dimples that Steve must’ve missed back on the field trip. 

He definitely doesn’t miss them this time– nor does he miss the maroon tee shirt that hugs a lithe frame, or black jeans, or white hightops. He definitely doesn’t miss the many rings on both hands or the silver chain holding a guitar pick hanging from his neck. Steve bites the inside of his bottom lip to keep from leaning forward to bite Eddie’s collarbone. 

Eddie means it, too. It’s been a week– a measly fucking week– since he’d first met Steve and he hasn’t stopped thinking about him since. Gareth and Chrissy think he’s ridiculous, and they’re not wrong, but he can’t help it if his face lights up with every text, or if Steve’s swoopy hair and freckles may as well be painted to the inside of his eyelids because he can’t see anything else when he closes his eyes. Steve’s choice of a v-neck also informs Eddie that he’s pretty goddamn hairy and well, yeah… that’s certainly a detail added to the mental mural he’s painted for himself over the past week.

“I could say the same thing, you look… wow,” Steve swallows and shakes his head, trying to pull himself together. “You play guitar?” 

Steve reaches up to touch the guitar pick and inspects it. Eddie’s hands twitch and he looks down at Steve’s nimble fingers touching his chain. When his eyes travel back to Steve’s, he realizes how close they are– accidentally, perhaps, but is it really? Is it incidental, or is it the same phenomenon that draws the ocean to shore? One small movement and they’ll have their first kiss before their first date which is equal parts hilarious and fitting. 

“I do, yeah, I play in a local band with some friends, Corroded Coffin,” he laughs nervously, a huff of air out through his nose as Steve lets go back back up a pace. “Never really turned into anything but it’s fun as shit. You should come see us some time.”

“I’m in. But… Corroded Coffin? That’s a Hell of a name.” He manages as he props open the door for Eddie and leads the way into the restaurant. 

“It’s a Hell of a band,” he laughs, his shoulder knocking into Steve’s at the host stand. Steve turns to smile at Eddie and for a moment, Eddie can’t feel the ground beneath him.

[free-n-wild]

Y'ALL guess who has an interview tomorrow with my state's wildlife rescue as an emergency phone operator? 👀

And if that doesn't work out I have another company wanting to interview me on Friday for a marine feeder/diver at the aquarium in the city, I'm so excited!!

My workplace got visited by a little friend today! I think it was a brown bat, but I'm not sure. What kind of bat do you think it is?

Oh man, I couldn't really tell you without some closeups, geographical location, and some luck! There's a LOT of little brown bats with black wings lol. Perhaps some kind of Vesper bat? Which I know doesn't really narrow it down that much. Perhaps Myotis, Eptesicus, or maybe Pipistrellus?

Regardless, its a total cutie, and I hope the little guy is okay! Generally it's not a great sign if they're out in the day you know? You're so lucky to have seen a bat just chilling though! Not something that happens very often :)

Like. Deadass Nazi? Are you okay????

IM FINE I got out of there when I found out. This was years ago and I thought he was just super right wing based on the stickers on his car (a 'molon labe' decal, punisher skulls, etc). Made comments about Immigrants and Transes and Dems. And like I didn't LIKE that but I was there volunteering for injured wildlife so it was like. I'm just not gonna bring up anything about myself to this dude I'm just gonna clean cages and mind my business.

Then one day he shows me on his phone that he does WWII reenactments, guess which side, and I was like umm...ok. and then he goes on to get really mad about how they always make them take the swastika flag down, and that The Jews were being too sensitive when it was within eyesight of a FUCKING SYNAGOGUE. And it's like ooooohhhhhhhhkay I can't volunteer here anymore because if this dude finds out in queer I don't know how that's gonna go.

I'm still pretty upset about how this is keeping me from volunteering there, because it really meant a lot to me to be able to interact with the beasts.

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS WEEK THAT A BIRD HAS BEEN INJURED AT MY HOUSE WHAT THE FUCK MAN

[vesper-tilionidae]

Currently sitting cross legged on the floor inside a mesh tent while two small bats crawl around on my body (under my sweater but over by t shirt lol) (it tickles)

What is a favorite fact that you like but feel like you never have a chance to share? More than one favorite is also totally acceptable.

The Virginia Opossum is not only the only marsupial in North America, but it also has the shortest pregnancy of all mammals which is 12-13 days (the water opossum of Central America is also 12-13 days). On the other hand elephants have the longest pregnancy at 22 months. When Virginia Opossums are born, they are about the size of an American dime or a honeybee and weigh 0.13 grams (about the weight of 2-3 grains of rice). Virginia Opossums have between 8 and 25 babies per litter, but have to crawl up their moms belly (with only front legs and while completely blind) and attach to one of 13 teats. Once they attach, their jaws lock down till they are about two months old. If a baby is dropped by mom for any reason, she will not come back for them. Wildlife rehabbers can feed baby opossums with a small tube that goes into their stomach due to the fact that opossums can’t swallow at a young age and their mothers teat grows with them and stays in their stomach till they deattach. I have worked as a wildlife rehabber since 2008 and my specialty has always been opossums. I have raised them as small as 6 grams in weight which seems impossible to a lot of rehabbers out there. I will attach some photos. (Oh an Virginia Opossums have a pronged p3n1$ and females have two uteru$’ to support this.)

why in the Goddamned Hell do people think that when they find a bird that cant take off by itself, the solution is to throw it in the air

[submissive-dumbass]

Found TWO baby pigeons that fell out of the nest early. One I passed off to an expert quickly, but the second had to stick around and I ended up getting attached lol. They’re going to another persons aviary but luckily that one is in the next town over so I’m talking about getting in touch with their future owner

According to the vet, they likely wouldn’t have seen adulthood without intervention so I’m REALLY glad I trusted my instincts and scooped them both into my car

Finally made more tie dye shirts for work (I've transitioned to wearing the free merch we get occasionally and plain colored tees as well, by now) and we tie dyed like 12? Shirts, some socks of moms, a couple undershirts, redyed my undershirt from last time, a shitty drawstring bag from a cheap tie dye kit, a hat, and a few of my white tees that have print on them. The last ones were bc we had so much fucking dye left and I was desperate to get it used up

All in all it's 26 or 27 items (socks included as a pair) I lost count after 15 if I'm being honest agdgdgdgdg

I'm really excited to see how my "I am Kenough" shirt comes out. I only had purple dye left at that point (still do) so I just went for it sgdgdggd it felt very ken.

Probably will only post the really good ones (and the ken shirt) but it was a lot of fun :D we tried a couple rainbow swirls and they look promising 👀 I'm excited
