This is way funnier! We definitely should have gotten this instead. Though I can see why censors probably didn’t like the implication that a character was naked, even if completely obscured by bubbles.
I cross stitch on strainers. The packs I buy come with these little strainers and I couldn’t figure out what to do with them until I thought of bees! This little guy was pulled from the Humble Bee pattern by DominionSisters on Etsy. by hahabrownie
Look, I know a good number of you are from the US and things aren't amazing there either, but my country is literally on the brink of collapse. So I'd love it if we could talk about that for a minute.
If you can't do anything else, please just read and reblog.
A second COVID wave has taken out the healthcare system. There are no more hospital beds. There's an oxygen shortage. There's a critical vaccine shortage. The Central Government has thrown its hands up and is passing the baton to the State Governments to do what they can.
There are over 16 million covid cases. A record 330,000 new cases reported yesterday - comparable to the US at its peak. 187,000 dead as of today.
There is no plan.
Mass cremations are taking place. The cremation grounds are running day and night and they are short on wood. People are watching their loved ones die while waiting for a hospital bed, and then they're unable to give them the proper burial rights.
Hospitals are overwhelmed. Patients are being confined, two to a bed. They're the lucky ones.
We are on the verge of people dying in the streets.
This is the second-most populous country in the world. The largest democracy. A country that encapsulates over 15,000 years of recorded human history and has endured everything from famine to invasion to colonisation.
We might be at the end. This might be the thing that does us in.
People are dying.
People are dying.
People are dying and there is no plan.
More good news? Variants are popping up. A double mutation strain has shown up. It is resistant to current vaccines. This will not go away. This is the devastation they warned of when the anti-maskers were out protesting the minor inconvenience of covering their face in public.
My country is on the verge of an emergency state. Our government has failed us. This is as dire a situation as it ever could be.
Look. I don't do much with my life. I write fics, some of you have read them and that's pretty much it. I spend my days with my head in the clouds because that's where I like to be.
But two days ago, my grandmother tested positive, had to be taken to hospital and the ambulance caught fire.
She barely made it to the urgent care she needs.
So, here I am, using whatever meager platform I have to cobble this request together. Because I have to do something.
If this cockatiel was truly being territorial it would be trying to attack the other bird.
You may also notice that it is not hurting the person’s hand, and is certainly not trying to bite them, this is not aggressive behaviour. This behaviour is called beaking (using the beak to interact with another individual in a play/non-aggressive way). The yellow cockatiel is simply trying to get the person’s attention, kinda like poking someone repeatedly until they pay attention to you. It’s not aggressive, just a little bit demanding.
You might also notice that when the person takes their hand away from the white cockatiel, it bows its head and moves closer to their hand. Both of these birds want cuddles, they just have very different personalities and different ways of asking.
