a blog centered around my stuffed animals, but mostly my emotional support one named Cabbage! (he/they, autistic) follows from thetismvirus

Intro Post

Hi!! This is a blog centered on my stuffed animals. This includes my favorite one who is my emotional support stuffed animal named Cabbage! I've had him since 2023 and he's great.

I'm a college student starting my freshman year this fall, and I'm hoping that this blog shows people that you can have comfort objects at any age for any reason, and that no one has the right to take them away from you if they're helping you and making you feel safe.

Don't have a dni, just don't be a bully or be weird about my interests (trying to sexualize them or me for having them, etc).

Also, Cabbage and all of my other squishmallows were bought second hand, or given to me by someone else. I don't support jazwares and their association with Israel, and I recommend getting squishmallows or any jazwares product second hand for this reason.

Tag Guide:

I'm not used to making Tumblr blogs with tag guides, so bear with me. This will also be updated as I use more tags.

#cabbage = any posts that contain/mention Cabbage

#creature posting = any posts that contain stuffed animals that aren't cabbage

#not creatures = anything mostly unrelated to plushies, usually my thoughts and feelings or posts that don't have pics

#essa or #emotional support stuffed animal = any posts that contain emotional support plushies, including cabbage or any others (I might have other variants of this so I don't clog up one specific tag)

Celebrating his b'day with the friends he got at animecon last weekend!!

The cow in the back I didn't get at animecon (still love him tho). However the witch hat crocodile is named Gilbert, the one to the right of him is named puddle, the bat is named sorbet, and the one next to sorbet is orion!

(please consider sharing! it costs $0 to share a small queer disabled Native/Asian artist's latest design 🫶🏼)

only a few days left to grab Taohua, Muffin, and Macaron for the Backerkit-only discount! 🍑🦌

PLEASE consider backing the project while it's still live as not only are they cute and super soft irl (they really are so cuddly), these projects and plushies are all in all my livelihood and i worked for a long time on their designs!~ its admittedly a little disheartening to watch the project tank exponentially when i had tried really hard on this project, so please consider backing it if you can.

you can find it here ;;

This is a photo I took of the inside of a plushie’s swing tag once…I think the quote is very apt. :)

💫 💗 ✨ Meet the Cosmic Brownie Critter!✨ 💗 💫

A very special baby has crash landed in Baby City! With her little rainbow feet, the Cosmic Brownie Critter prances all around Baby City, leaving a trail of sprinkles anywhere she goes! She has a very important job in Baby City... she's here to remind not only the babies, but you too, that it's ALWAYS okay to enjoy things from childhood! Whether you like collecting trinkets, playing with toys, or just like looking at cute little things online, it's good to find comfort in the small things around you! Cosmic Brownie baby brings the babies little nostalgic snacks and toys when the babies feel down, and no matter where you are you can imagine her doing the same for you!!

🍫 Materials: Cosmic Brownie baby is made from seal minky, minky cuddle 3, and her sprinkles are itty bitty pom poms. She is stuffed with a mixture of polyfil, fiberfil, and cluster stuffing. She has beans in her paws and belly, and her tail has a rattle in it.

💗 Cosmic Brownie Critter will be available this Saturday, February 21st at 6pm EST!💗

I love this little guy!

[cabbage-and-creatures]

For my archaeology class, I had to take an object that has meaning to me to class today. Obviously there's cabbage but I'm very protective of him and didn't want him being touched by others so Houdini was up to the task!!

Fortunately people really liked him!! I kept getting a lot of compliments. If you're ever worried about bringing plushies with you in public, remember that people will usually be cool with it! It's never embarrassing to bring something that's important to you and that brings you comfort
