[two-calicos-in-a-trenchcoat]

Sometimes I get hit with names for future pets out of nowhere (although in this case the potential need for a name is a bit more real)

So far I've been very good at naming the pets that I have named. Even tho I named them while they were kittens and I didn't know anything about their personalities both mercedes and harleys names fit them extremely well

Now mercedes name came from my moms first cat. Also a calico. I never met this cat as she died before I was born (she had some rare disorder and wasn't very old) and when we got my mercedes I had actually been considering an all white kitten in the litter before I noticed the tiny calico. But the second I saw her I knew she was mine and that her name was mercedes like my moms old cat that I'd heard stories of my whole life. (According to my mom that name fit my mercedes much better than it did her first cat)

Id had harleys name picked out for years. I decided in middle school that I would have a cat named harley one day. I spent many years seeing cats and pictures of cats (specifically calico cats) but it wasnt until I saw harley that I knew I'd found the cat for that name. Her name fits her perfectly.

Layla came with her name. If id thought of something that suited her better I wouldve suggested it but it fit her pretty well. Chewby also came with her name. Its not a name I probably wouldve come up with but it definitely fits her (chewby chews)

But I have an ever growing list of names for future pets and they all are for specific breeds (or coat colors in regards to cats)

Kaia will be a German shepherd. Specifically a long haired one.

Skye for a border collie

Salem for a black cat (because of course)

But recently I was hit with a name for a pitbull as a couple of my dads friends pits are gonna have puppies

Rebel

Which is funny that thats the name that popped into my head

Cuz my cats name is harley

And rebel is the name of a model of motorcycle made by Honda and is the type of bike I was considering when I wanted a motorcycle

This was not intentional

Going with harley after mercedes very much was

But I hadnt thought about wanting a bike in years

Meaning I hadnt thought about that specific bike in years

But THATS what hit me for a dog name

Anyway

We all know the semi-canonical ‘all the Robins know to hide/duck inside of Batman’s cape, even as adults’ thing.

We also know that Danny ‘is LITERALLY a ghost’ Fenton sucks at remembering his own intangibility while ALSO forgetting to look ahead of him.

All I’m saying is, Danny Fenton (or Phantom, if you’d really like) would absolutely SLAM into Batman on accident while running on roof tops and Bruce ‘Brooding Instinct’ Wayne doesn’t even think twice about letting the kid hide and scanning around for danger before there’s a record scratch of ‘wait who tf is this?’ kicks in.

can't believe that skeleman has turned on us, and Halloween Prom is tomorrow.

(what a top-tier UM...we are about to be just totally obliterated in the absolute silliest way. what possible use could this power have outside of bringing us to the brink of utter holiday disaster.)

Zuko's eyes watered against his will when the ghost of a woman he did not know smiled at him like he was her child.

Zuko decided right there and then that maybe, just maybe, this too was something he came to find.

Ghost-Mother takes a look into Zuko's soul in For the Spirits Chapter IX: A Rider Alone.

More than a stranded soul, Kya holds all the love of the Old Tribe and the means to calm a coming tempest. Zuko won't ever forget her.

(He won't be allowed to.)

there was a fire in the building that houses my studio on new year's eve. i'll probably elaborate on that more at some point idk but tldr

it wasn't a big fire, nobody lost any stuff, nobody was hurt. the electrical mains gave up the ghost (likely due to an ongoing leak the landlord wouldn't fix)

but because the landlords have already wanted us out for ages so they can "redevelop" (read: tear down a slightly run-down building from around 1900) the place into Yet More Soulless Shiny Flats Nobody Around Here Can Afford they decided the damage is uneconomical to repair, refused our offer to contribute to repair costs, and are kicking us all out

because there was an "accident" causing "irreparable damage" they're exempt from the usual 3-month waiting period and everyone has to vacate by Feb 1

this is a community space occupied by artists and musicians so now there are a couple dozen broke-ass bitches who have to relocate short notice. the landlord, spectrum properties, is refusing to extend the time any further

so! there will shortly be some form of gofundme type situation to raise money for the costs of doing that (like storage units if we can't find another studio space), and also to tide over any artists who relied on that space for income since they've not had anywhere to work for a couple of weeks and probably won't for several more

i'll reblog this with the link when that's up and running but uh. yeah. that's a thing. which is happening.

so one of the things that's so horrifying about birth control is that you have to, like, navigate this incredibly personal choice about your body and yet also face the epitome of misogyny. like, someone in the comments will say it wasn't that bad for me, and you'll be utterly silenced. like, everyone treats birth control like something that's super dirty. like, you have no fucking information or control over this thing because certain powerful people find it icky.

first it was the oral contraceptives. you went on those young, mostly for reasons unrelated to birth control - even your dermatologist suggested them to control your acne. the list of side effects was longer than your arm, and you just stared at it, horrified.

it made you so mentally ill, but you just heard that this was adulthood. that, yes, there are of course side effects, what did you expect. one day you looked up yasmin makes me depressed because surely this was far too intense, and you discovered that over 12,000 lawsuits had been successfully filed against the brand. it remains commonly prescribed on the open market. you switched brands a few times before oral contraceptives stopped being in any way effective. your doctor just, like, shrugged and said you could try a different brand again.

and the thing is that you're a feminist. you know from your own experience that birth control can be lifesaving, and that even when used for birth control - it is necessary healthcare. you have seen it save so many people from such bad situations, yourself included. it is critical that any person has access to birth control, and you would never suggest that we just get rid of all of it.

you were a little skeeved out by the implant (heard too many bad stories about it) and figured - okay, iud. it was some of the worst pain you've ever fucking experienced, and you did it with a small number of tylenol in your system (3), like you were getting your bikini line waxed instead of something practically sewn into your body.

and what's wild is that because sometimes it isn't a painful insertion process, it is vanishingly rare to find a doctor that will actually numb the area. while your doctor was talking to you about which brand to choose, you were thinking about the other ways you've been injured in your life. you thought about how you had a suspicious mole frozen off - something so small and easy - and how they'd numbed a huge area. you thought about when you broke your wrist and didn't actually notice, because you'd thought it was a sprain.

your understanding of pain is that how the human body responds to injury doesn't always relate to the actual pain tolerance of the person - it's more about how lucky that person is physically. maybe they broke it in a perfect way. maybe they happened to get hurt in a place without a lot of nerve endings. some people can handle a broken femur but crumble under a sore tooth. there's no true way to predict how "much" something actually hurts.

in no other situation would it be appropriate for doctors to ignore pain. just because someone can break their wrist and not feel it doesn't mean no one should receive pain meds for a broken wrist. it just means that particular person was lucky about it. it should not define treatment.

in the comments of videos about IUDs, literally thousands of people report agony. blinding, nauseating, soul-crushing agony. they say things like i had 2 kids and this was the worst thing i ever experienced or i literally have a tattoo on my ribs and it felt like a tickle. this thing almost killed me or would rather run into traffic than ever feel that again.

so it's either true that every single person who reports severe pain is exaggerating. or it's true that it's far more likely you will experience pain, rather than "just a pinch." and yet - there's nothing fucking been done about it. it kind of feels like a shrug is layered on top of everything - since technically it's elective, isn't it kind of your fault for agreeing to select it? stop being fearmongering. stop being defensive.

you fucking needed yours. you are almost weirdly protective of it. yours was so important for your physical and mental health. it helped you off hormonal birth control and even started helping some of your symptoms. it still fucking hurt for no fucking reason.

once while recovering from surgery, they offered you like 15 days of vicodin. you only took 2 of them. you've been offered oxy for tonsillitis. you turned down opioids while recovering from your wisdom tooth extraction. everything else has the option. you fucking drove yourself home after it, shocked and quietly weeping, feeling like something very bad had just happened. the nurse that held your hand during the experience looked down at you, tears in her eyes, and said - i know. this is cruelty in action.

and it's fucked up because the conversation is never just "hey, so the way we are doing this is fucking barbaric and doctors should be required to offer serious pain meds" - it's usually something around the lines of "well, it didn't kill you, did it?"

you just found out that removing that little bitch will hurt just as bad. a little pinch like how oral contraceptives have "some" serious symptoms. like your life and pain are expendable or not really important. like maybe we are all hysterical about it?

hysteria comes from the latin word for uterus, which is great!

you stand here at a crossroads. like - this thing is so important. did they really have to make it so fucking dangerous. and why is it that if you make a complaint, you're told - i didn't even want you to have this in the first place. we're told be careful what you wish for. we're told that it's our fault for wanting something so illict; we could simply choose not to need medication. that maybe if we don't like the scraps, we should get ready to starve.

we have been saying for so long - "i'm not asking you to remove the option, i'm asking you to reconsider the risk." this entire time we hear: well, this is what you wanted, isn't it?

Look me in the eyes and say that Leo and Donnie's dynamic is more interesting than everyone elses

YOU CANT ( though i still do adore them so sooo much)

Leo and Raph: im sorry but the entire movie??? And still more disaster duo content...( keep up the work disaster duo is awesome though!!) Leo and raph literally have so much to work with from them talking about their sacrifices to silly arguments and comebacks and just bth of them resembling karai...

Leo and Mikey: IM SORRY YOUNGER BROTHER THAT LOOKS UP TO OLDER ONE ANDDD OLDER BROTHER THAT LOOKS UP TO YOUNGER ONE??? my heartttt auaghahehhh nooo them talking about mikeys scars from staten islanddd leo feeling guiltyyyy mikey knowing the cost of protecting loved ones....

Donnie and raph: uaaghah they are so different but soo sillyyy <33 Raph would 100% baby donnie and let him get away with pretty much anything but also stop him from stealing uranium donnie loving validation of a person older than him but not quite adult( A WHOLE OTHER CAN OF WORMSS)

Donnie an mikey: both of them being the youngest and most protected but taking turns protecting each other?? AAAAUAGHA donnie loving to impress mikeyy and all the glory of being looked up too and Mikey loving to actually be responsible instead of the other way around ( even if he would approve of microvaing a fork..)

im not saying the disaster duo is bad at all just that everyone else's (cough cough raph and Mikey.. ) interactions get pushed to the side for more content of them

which is fine!!! just a bit sad about most of the fandom doing it

(IF ANYONE IS SUPER PASSIONATE ABOUT ANY DUO OR EVEN TRIO (ESPECIALLY ONES WITH RAPH) YOURE FREE TO MESSAGE ME <33 I ADORE ALL THINSG ROTTMNT RELATED)
