My life is strange. Sometimes I write about it.

So, I never thought we would get to this point, but here we are.

This little guy here is Remus. A year ago, he contracted Feline Leukemia Virus from Baby Kitten, who passed it on to him and Caramel.

Baby kitten passed away before we even knew what was wrong. When Caramel got sick, she got really really sick. We tried everything, from Virbagen to blood transfusions, but nothing worked. Two weeks of running to the vet every day, and all we were left with are broken hearts.

And now Remus is sick. He has a limphoma in his chest and he's probably going to need surgery. We can't afford to not try to save him.

Quite frankly, the treatment isn't cheap. Just the ultrasound, the blood panels and the biochemistry analysis cost 600€. The CT scan is going to cost more. And all of our credit cards and savings are thinning out.

And listen, I know we're all broke here. But if I can trade some cute cat pictures for a few bucks, even that will help.

My brand new Kofi account.

And some pictures of my poor, beloved, idiot son doing what he does best: sleeping.

I try not to fall into the "I never liked their work anyway" ditch when an artist/creator reveals themself to be a terrible person

BUT

a feeling I do have and will stand by is "While I enjoyed their work overall I did have some gripes that I overlooked out of affection and whimsy, but now that my loyalty is gone and my affection tainted there is nothing holding me back from enumerating my many grievances, to which the revelations of the creator's shittiness may or may not provide a new and infuriating context."

Yet another unrealistic beauty standard for women

[shadowen]

I'm scrolling Tumblr. I pause to watch a video of Amaury Guichon. He pours chocolate into a mold, then carefully removes the shape of a human head. There are time lapse clips of chocolate being formed into a body, limbs, and hair. As the final detail is finished, he steps back to reveal the figure of a beautiful woman, uncannily lifelike. He steps forward and places a delicate kiss on her lips. The figure, now a living human woman, stirs and looks around in wonder. Amaury Guichon looks into the camera with a wide smile and holds out his arms in presentation.

"Fucking chocolate guy," I mutter to myself before scrolling to the next post.

"Now I've shot so many Nazis, Daddy will have to buy me a sable coat." (From his Wikipedia article).

Neil Munro "Bunny" Roger

June 9, 1911-April 27, 1997.

Bunny Roger killed a bunch of Nazis and then invented Capri pants.

He was expelled from Oxford for his indiscrete gayness (discrete gayness being perfectly fine at Oxford and part of the curriculum until...today probably, at least like 1992?). Then, having been sent down to London, he started his own fashion business, and his first client was Vivien Leigh.

Bunny served in WWII, killing fascists in North Africa and Italy, and often wearing a mauve scarf in the field. Roger claimed that he had gone into a battle brandishing a rolled-up copy of VOGUE and commanding: "When in doubt, powder heavily!"

Roger was known in high society for his themed soirées; Diamond, Amethyst, and Flame Balls were held to celebrate his 60th, 70th, and 80th birthdays. He wore a curious plum colored catsuit with a feathered headdress at his 70th birthday ball in 1981. At his 80th, he made his entrance in a catsuit of scarlet sequins with a cape of orange organza, greeting his guests from behind a wall of fire. His parties were covered by the newspapers, including a New Year's Eve Fetish Ball where the proper upper class mixed with young guests in rubber S/M gear.

From an obituary: "Beneath his mauve mannerisms, Bunny was stalwart, frank, dependable and undeceived; to onlookers a passing peacock, to intimates, a life enhancer and exemplary friend."

From another obituary:

He served valiantly in every way.

This is the THIRD time I've been woken up at 5 AM by those damn doves fucking right outside my window. ARE THERE NO OTHER BRANCHES UPON WHICH YOU CAN KNOCK FEATHERS????

Sir, if I tag this as 'bird fucking' I am NOT going to get the intended crowd on this post.

How did it get up there

[piratekayte]

It’s difficult to tell - typically light fixtures are installed using some combination of screws and brackets to affix them to the wall, but in this case the actual point of connection is obscured by a cat.
