[lawyer voice] mothers and fuckers of the jury-
DO YOU KNOW HOW OFTEN I THINK ABOUT THIS POST??? IM IN LAW SCHOOL THIS POST IS GOING TO RUIN MY LIFE
reblog to ruin a law student’s life
oh hello you’ve returned to us
Hi. I’m a trial attorney now and every last one of you is a motherfucker.
Dermatillomania and Trichotillomania
Testing my own patience with a certain nostalgic Minecraft series that is way more cringey than I remember. I'm going to die here.
Edit: ...It's starting to grow on me again..
Edit 2: Never mind, it hurts.
Edit 3: I'm getting WAY too into this.
Guess who moltteedddd
Ok, so I'm a first time mantis owner, and Fish was showing signs of molting yesterday, so I was freaking out because molting can be very dangerous. I made sure the humidity is right and everything, but it's still scary. ANYWAYS I went to bed with the idea that maybe I'm being paranoid and maybe they aren't molting yet. So I woke up to seemingly two mantids in the cup, but I'm not that stupid, my baby molted!! I am so proud of Fish.
Fish
Greetings, fellow vertebrates, today, I have an invertebrate.
This is Fish, my new child. I love them so much already and I just got them.
This is my baby.
Got some pea pufferfish.
They're so smol.
you know the obsession with keeping cats indoors is a purely American view of the world? Most Europeans let their cats outdoors without any problems. Many Europeans even think it's cruel to keep them indoors all the time
No, it’s not. European cats aren’t magically smarter and less environmentally impactful than American cats, it’s just more socially acceptable to let them roam. Do you not have cars in Europe? Foxes? Raptors? Stray dogs? Rat poison? Parasites? Diseases? What about the Croydon Cat Killer in England, where the dismemberment of over 400 cats was being investigated, and it turned out that foxes were mutilating the bodies of cats that were killed by cars? Suddenly it’s all ok because it was only horrific death via automobile, instead of decapitation like they suspected? Totally acceptable to outdoor cat owners, who cares if your cat gets hit by a car and dies on the side of the road? There is real concern for the hybridization of wildcats in Europe, Asia, and Africa, but sure, it’s just a US problem. How about how outdoor cats are effectively reducing the protective area of a national park in Poland? How about the increased incidence of lungworms and GI parasites in European free roaming cats? How about this small study from Denmark where 90% of free roaming cats tested positive for GI parasites on necropsy (and the risk was higher in rural areas). Not Europe, but for the sake of completeness, free roaming cats kill ~377 MILLION birds per year in Australia, and 61 million of those kills are thought to be from owned cats. You can also talk to @drferox about how problematic outdoor cats are in Australia. Free roaming cats are bad for the environment, and are put in unnecessary danger. Why don’t you provide enrichment for your cat instead of letting them run around unsupervised where they will kill native wildlife and get sick or injured or die (or all of the above). Other resources from @catsindoors about the impact of domestic cats around the world. Snagged a lot of these links from their blog.
Humans would also be safer and the environment protected if we all just stayed indoors. No passing of parasites, bacteria, or viruses. No harm to other species. No cross breeding either (if that bothers you). Do you want to stay indoors?
I generally try to ignore responses like this, but I want to address this because I see this ridiculous argument a lot.
The reason that this comparison is inaccurate is because humans have the ability to use reason and make logical choices, but cats don’t. Humans see a car coming and wait until the street is clear to cross. Cats don’t. Humans know not to eat strange food on the ground. Cats don’t. Humans can look up which plants are toxic and avoid them. Cats can’t. Humans don’t eat raw rabbits and rodents that may carry disease. Cats do. Humans who hunt follow laws that prevent them from killing endangered species (besides shitty poachers). Cats don’t.
A far more accurate comparison would be a cat and a toddler. They lack the ability to recognize danger and don’t have the ability to reason that an adult does. I’m sure a toddler would have a great time roaming around the neighborhood, but no one is going to argue in favor of that. People can understand that doing that is irresponsible and dangerous. But no sane person is going to lock their toddler inside and provide them with nothing to do; no one is saying we should do that for cats either. Play with them. Provide cat trees. Rotate their toys. Give them puzzle feeders. And if you want them to go outside you can leash train them. Or build a catio. The options aren’t let them roam vs. never provide them with entertainment. If it is unbearable to entertain and care for a cat that is kept indoors, you probably shouldn’t own a cat.
Would you let your dog roam? Or your bird? How about your rabbit? I’m sure all of these animals would have a great time running (or flying) around the neighborhood, but we generally recognize that this is a bad idea. It’s no different for cats. We are caretakers for our animals, so it is up to us to use our big brains to make logical choices about what they should or shouldn’t do. We have the ability to understand the risks associated with free roaming. Cats don’t. We can weigh risks and benefits before making a decision. Cats can’t.
tldr: Humans have the ability to make logical decisions to keep themselves safe but cats do not.
Outdoor cats are also more or less an invasive species. They are such good hunters, they are capable of permanently changing an ecosystem by killing native prey animals.
Protect your kitty and local biodiversity–keep them inside!
I just wanted to tack on that, there is no “more or less”, cats are an invasive species. Domesticated animals are invasive species and allowing them to interact with the local environment without monitoring will harm the local biodiversity. Cats especially. Domestic cats have a very high success rate for hunting. Historically, they have lead to multiple extinctions of animals because people brought cats along as pest control and pets.
To add to the “keeping humans inside to protect the wildlife”
We literally have laws that designate when we can hunt and fish. We have laws that outline what animals we can kill/keep and what animals are protected. In some places, we need a license in order to hunt or fish there.
Poaching is illegal and a jaillable offense!
CATS DO NOT COMPREHEND HUNTING ETHICS. Therefore, as their handlers, keepers, and owners, we are responsible for every action our pet (be it cat, dog, or any other animal) takes outside our homes. Cats ARE an invasive species and are responsible for the extinctions of hundreds of birds, mammals, and amphibians.
You don’t have to keep your cat indoors, but your cat must remain under supervision when outdoors, such as on a leash, or within a confined area it cannot escape from, such as a catio or an aviary cage set up for cats.
I do love me some homemade blorbos.
Hey guys, I’m making my own game as a spin off of my sisters. This one will be a simple platformer with a cute storyline. This is the official cover art.
Edit: dang, the best digital art I've ever done and the comments are full of scammers. What a shame.
AHHH
Ok so first of all, I watched Episode 9, it was good. Idk why I saw some people saying they cried or whatever, but it was still good.
SECOND I have Caine's song "Running the Show" stuck in my head, but it's doing the lyrics wrong, it keeps going "My virginity is past infinity" instead of the actual lyrics, and I didn't even really notice until just now, but honestly that's just so much funnier so I might as well keep it.
Look at this little pervert I caught in my bathroom.
Y'all it finally happened...
I got a chicken in my fries. :D
Hey, guys, this is not ok. Blurred out the name because I think(?) that's what you're supposed to do, but PLEASE do not ask that of random people on the Internet wth. Anyways I blocked her.
List 5 things that make you happy, and put this in the ask box of the last 10 ppl who liked or reblogged smth from you! :) (No obligation, but would love to read it!)
Oo alr, uhh
My dogs, my friends, my family, art, cooking, and uh... That one guy. <3 alr that one doesn't count. Vulture culture is a good one.
Here is what I made for dinner last night.
It's wonton soup with Thai rice noodles. It was good.
Lizard skeleton I found while on a walk. I dried it out for a bit longer and then kept it.
This guy is a green anole I think.
I drew fanart of @canisalbus ' OC, Machete. I'm not good with humanoid bodies yet so I did the feral form thing that they draw him as sometimes.
