your month, your mini cat!
These tiny cats are now sticker sheets in my shop!!
*GROSS SOBBING AT HOW UNBEARABLY BEAUTIFUL THESE ILLUSTRATIONS ARE*
From Bernie Wrightson’s Frankenstein
“Mary - when she first came to Grandmas she was standing up on a chair stepped on the edge of in and fell down the chair hitting her terribly hard across the chest. She was very lame all the time but for more than a week couldn’t take a long breath it hurt her so badly. Jack say he heard Grandma threw a chair at her”
- Allie to Will, February 27, 1900.
“My dear Jacky: It has been nine weeks exactly since I last heard from you and I thought I had better remind you that I am alive and like letters as well as ever.”
- Rachel to Jack, May 23, 1898.
I must admit that “shit-ass” is not a word I ever thought I’d see in a 19th century letter… but here we are.
“This is kind of a shit-ass of a letter, but I just wanted to let you know I was alive.”
- Gilbert Patterson to Jack, June 16, 1896.
“In 1986 Grandma was worried I wasn’t settling down. So I told her I was having a relationship—with a woman. “I am settling down, in my own way.” And the sunlight settled on the dust on the mantlepiece and the cat settled in Grandma’s lap and Grandma said there were two nurses boarding in her mother’s house in Yorkshire in 1916. And Grandma said she was in love with one of them. 70 years later, she still remembered waiting at the bottom of the boarding-house stairs to blush and smile hello at the funny, dark-eyed nurse she loved. Love between women? Unforgettable.”
— Eleni Prineas, in Finding the Lesbians: Personal Accounts from Around the World (via oikabooks)
There is a phrase used to describe people, often strangers, as “ships passing in the night.” The phrase is meant to describe how fleeting the intersection of two lives can be, how briefly people we don’t know can flicker in and out of our lives.
But when I read about the Titanic, I think we can push the phrase further. Because sometimes, as you pass another ship in the night, you may hear a cry in the dark. A person in danger. A shout for help. Distress rockets and SOS signals wailing into the night. A stranger in crisis.
And in those fleeting moments as your ship passes theirs, you get to make the choice- are you the Californian, the closest ship to the Titanic, which saw the distress rockets and saw the lights on the horizon and sat and did nothing; or are you the Carpathia, turning on a dime, pushing all steam to the engines, racing to help?
We can not say for sure what caused the Californian to not help the Titanic in that night of crisis. Whether is was apathy or incompetence or fear, we don’t know.
But we know that every single soul who survived the Titanic survived because of the Carpathia. Because the crew and the passengers of that ship raced nearly 60 miles through ice fields above their maximum speed in the dead of night, readying life boats, readying triage, to pull them from the water.
So, yes, we are ships passing in the night, and when given the chance to turn away or do good, always err on the side of reckless compassion.

Back on my rhaenient obsession
all doors here lead to decay
I’m not Christian, I don’t go to church anymore, and my pastor died, but when he was alive I’d sometimes go to his sermons and I remember one time he said “it feels good to hate, but we know that it isn’t allowed, so when we’re told that we’re allowed to hate someone we get so excited that we forget we’re supposed to love”, and if my humble atheist ass might borrow some church talk I’d like to perhaps submit that
Anyhow sometimes on the day to day I feel disgust or revulsion and I have to ask myself “is this a danger to anyone at all or am I just looking for something I’m allowed to hate” and a solid 98/100 times it’s the latter so once again thank you pastor D
GREETINGS EVERYONE!!! I've spent the last couple of months working on a full length comic adaption of @goodlucktai's beautiful 'fishbowl' fanfic!!! Below you can read the fruits of my efforts :) Enjoy!
This comic takes place before Dressrosa

i’m obsessed with shows like supernatural, teen wolf, etc. where a person gets attacked and the doctor in the ER is immediately like “it looks like they were attacked by a wolf” like it makes me FEEL INSANE
HOW many wolf attacks is the average US ER doctor seeing to make this instant assessment
as a wildlife biologist I wouldn’t assume a wolf attack unless the victim was found while being Actively attacked by wolves
It’s a different thing in the USA we actually have wild animals.
I’m American. I got my degree in West Virginia. There have been 2 (MAYBE 3, it’s a little unclear) verifiable fatal wolf attacks in All of North America since at least as far back as 1900. I promise no doctor is assuming wolves when a patient gets rolled in. That said, this post is just a joke
So, in this case, what a doctor will assume?
Asking for a writer.
I’m not a doctor, but from the wildlife perspective, I’d assume dogs first if the person were in-town. MAYBE a bear, depending on where you are. Grizzly country and black bear country are different. If you need a character to get attacked by a wild animal, just start by googling historic cases of animal attacks in the setting.
ALSO, I know it’s fiction, but I hope writers start thinking more about our responsibility when we portray wildlife. Fiction has done a lot of damage to predator species for centuries, so it’d be nice to start portraying them more realistically.
I’ve only ever been attacked by an animal in the wild once. I was in a the woods of a state park.
It was a feral domestic cat, orange tabby.
*person attacked by a werewolf is wheeled into the ER* “it looks like they were attacked by a… very big raccon?”
*vampire victim wheeled in*
doctor: how big did witnesses say the possum was
*Me trying to keep up with all the insane shit happening in 2020*
Good Comedy Never Dies
All I can think about is the propsmaster who had to build that newspaper. Imagine Buster Keaton comes to you one day and is just like “I’ve got a bit. How big a newspaper can you make me?”
