#they always fed us so well

[naamahdarling]

Edit: Thank you all so, so much. I am incredibly moved and incredibly grateful for everything you all have done. Donations, signal boosts, kind words. We can cover their food for at least one month. Anything sent from here out is most welcome and will go towards their needs, but the food crisis is past for now!

The extra will be held until Raleigh sees the specialist on the 11th and either put towards vet bills or used to get him more of his stinky wet food.

----

Guys, we REALLY need help paying for cat food. This is not normally an issue, they come first, but a lot of bad shit happened this month and it has literally taken everything we had. I have tried my hardest to stretch their food to the end of the month but the boys, all three, are out of scrip food TOMORROW.

I'm so sorry. I don't want to be doing this.

It isn't helped by the fact that their food has shot up in price so much I can't believe it.

Please if you can help we would be so grateful. Just five bucks. My boyfriend's PayPal is theothershea@gmail.com.

We need a total refill on Dried Pickle Man/Sid tummy care kibble, and hopefully a month of wet food for Raleigh, which is around $300 for it all. That sadly isn't an error. That isn't even touching the cost of their vet plans and vet debt, which are another $300, and we are behind by about $100 on the vet plans. But all we really need is most of that $300 for food.

The boys can't be off their scrip food. Sid becomes violently ill (I had to buy hospital biohazard spill absorber for when he throws up) with even a little regular food, and Dried Pickle Man eats the same food he does. For Raleigh, well, he's dying. He needs to be kept comfortable for what time he has left and without this food he develops extremely painful and very dangerous urinary crystals very fast and without wet food he can't eat without severe pain in his mouth. We are trying to fix his teeth but need clearance from a specialist which we cannot get until July. He has already been off his scrip food for a couple of days.

We have gotten along this far via Patreon every month, which pays for a lot of the cat stuff, but PayPal and Patreon are holding over $700 of our money due to some sort of technical issue and I don't know when that can be resolved. Without it, we will have nothing in either bank account by the end of the month. Like. Nothing.

We need help. Badly.

Again, my boyfriend's PayPal is theothershea@gmail.com.

All money will go to him to get food for the cats and pay for their monthly plans and medical debt.

This is Raleigh, who will take your fingers and kiss them if you hold your hand out. Please at least help us get wet food for him so he can eat without pain while he is still here to hold my hand.

(If Raleigh does pass before his food runs out, we can easily return the remaining cans and put that money toward the cost of the euthanasia.)

(Reference, reference. These foods cost the same everywhere I can find, and have gone up in price a lot because greedflation, which is a big part of why paying is suddenly more of an issue.)

bylers when over 350k people don’t have the exact same thoughts and opinions as them

[fromtheseventhhell]

The majority of Rhaegar/Lyanna stans here are minding their own business but for certain people here (especially "martell stans") is not enough

They keep bashing these characters and they are acting as if they are "oppressed" by Rhaegar's stans

It's boring

This is sooooo true, and why I find Elia/Martell stans to be so annoying even though I love several Martell characters (same with house Stark stans tbh). They love throwing stones and then hiding their hands. They put their hate in the main tags and call Rhaegar a pedophile/rapist/racist/abuser/etc., Lyanna a spoiled brat/heartless temptress, and shit talk shippers cause they think the fanon they invented justifies it but the second a Rhaelya gives a fraction of that energy back, they play the victim. Cause you're right, it's not enough for them. At the root of it, they're forever going to be mad that Rhaegar, Lyanna, and their relationship are popular + important to the story. They swear they don't care but then they never shut up about them. Just another case of people wanting to be morally superior and getting pissy when things don't go their way.

finally got to read onk 136 and wow. okay.

love the understanding we're slowly getting of just how bad things were in first gen b-komachi! that fight is incredibly real and heartbreaking to witness

nino, in her own way is trying out of sheer desperation and a whole emotional cocktail to reach out to ai, to find something, letting loose all her bottled up feelings in one go but all she's getting back are practised perfected smiles and deflecting answers in response to the emotion shes pouring out because ai has no idea how to handle this because shes never had friends nor any major fight before so she's falling back on the "smile and please everyone" tactic but it isnt working here because that isnt what nino wants to hear so she gets even more hurtful but ai doesn't know that so all she can do, all she can try right now is smile and its a slow suffocation of everything that could've been because they were friends but now the cracks go too deep and can't be patched up at all because ai is now dead and nino is left with a bunch unresolved feelings that still affects her more than a decade later

its just so heartbreaking and frustrating to witness just exactly how everything culminated into what it is now because no one who could have did anything about it either, not even their manager which pushed the singular star - everyone else is just a side actor narrative even more

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

continuing on, kana's detachment yet empathy with nino as she observes from a distance while ruby is very much embodying ai, being her instead of keeping herself separate. kana knows herself and now she's able to sort out her hidden feelings easier now that she has an outlet in form of nino (she uses her own emotions for acting after all) but ruby with her years of grief and the sudden understanding of ai...yeah she is Not handling this well at all someone please get her out of there

this movie in terms of Ai Potrayal is getting worse and worse by the second oof

i like to think the universally agreed upon headcanon that leonard is good at cooking really wasn't so much a result of him living on his own and thus learning 15 Ways to Skin a Deer for Tenderness and Flavour (though it had a LITTLE to do with just acquiring the skills) so much as his family/brothers getting involved to where he was like "oh shit i better get to doing this properly then" as opposed to his last some years by himself of negligently making a pile of charcoal out of the fish he caught for dinner and just shrugging his shoulders going "welp. i'll live lol"

[perfectplaces]

grateful for friends who show support, especially through cooking ❤️‍🩹

tbh idk if anyone remembers that Israel ask from a while ago but Im thinking about it again. at the time I was following a bunch of apologists who were very clever with their words and I Am Not Immune to Propaganda etc. if I were to go and handle that situation again with what I know now I probably would respond very differently, but I doubt I'd even receive that ask now

I think also there's a lot of the "antisemitism in leftist spaces" dialogue that apologists kind of....co-opted. and use to guilt people into coming around to their way of thinking.

idk. Im not going to delude myself into thinking I have more of a platform than I do or more influence than I do, but I want to make it abundantly clear that i am not a Zionist and I wholeheartedly believe the modern Zionist movement is a dangerous tool of fearmongering and oppression.

I follow a couple of pro-palestine Jewish bloggers now (shout out to @tikkunolamresistance !) and the work they do has given me a lot of perspective that I didn't have before. it is extremely appreciated

at the end of the day though, philosophising online means very little in comparison to actually helping people get to safety and it's genuinely fucking horrific to me that wanting to end Palestinian suffering is somehow considered a political statement

go help out someone in palestine

Ah…. There it is.

Let me make a detour from my usual KDrama rare pairs to fangirl scream about this pairing. This show has tropes galore to make a shipper like me go squeeing to high heavens. Love this for me and the show, truly❣️

While not wholly a rare pair as this pairing from the drama itself has a number of high quality FMVs to fangirl over - and the overwhelmingly more popular ship with viewers - and there exists a tiny amount of fics in Korean, on Ao3, the fics (in English) for this pairing is basically nonexistent. A sad state of affairs, certainly, but the main female character is generally beloved, and the number of FMVs enough to tide me over for a time, so all in all, this is a very wonderful ship for me to have fun with.

Compared to some of my other rare pairs, this ship is unironically a major, major comfort! There is extremely little frustration to be had although fan content is not in abundance either. A lovely, sexy and peaceful ship 🥰🥹

Catie I cant...I can't anymore I'm in my strollonso feels this morning i cant I need them. I miss em so much. They better make out in Zandvoort 🥺🥺🥺

(Also everyone thank nando for his service 😁😁)

Don't worry, we've survived through the worst of the drought, Elle (hopefully)🤧🤧 its been a long summer break.....Aston please you better have fixed your car.....

But god seriously. Fernando reposting that pic reawakened my need for strollonso content 🥺 please Aston feed us more 🥺 I literally had to go and reread fics, for the 100th time, of them bcs it made me so insane again. As I said in my tags, if Fernando is literally specifically reposting an old pic of them on his story, hopefully that means we'll be getting more content of them 🙏🙏🙏

I went and found the article because I needed to know more about where the kitties went, and at the time of the article, they were all four in a foster home together. The article is from 2022 though so I'd love to know where they all ended up!
