and the universe said I love you and the universe said you have played the game well and the universe said everything you need is within you and the universe said you are stronger than you know and the universe said you are the daylight and the universe said you are the night and the universe said the darkness you fight is within you and the universe said the light you seek is within you and the universe said you are not alone and the universe said you are not separate from every other thing and the universe said you are the universe tasting itself, talking to itself, reading its own code and the universe said I love you because you are love.
tagging various fandoms and things below that i currently post about often so you know what to expect/what to block
ask box is open for anyone who wants to send a message! feel free to ask for specific trigger tags and PLEASE lmk if you notice me accidentally reblogging anything that includes generative ai (unless the post is obviously critiquing it)
<(:3
here is a list of the random non-fandom related tags i use and what they mean in no particular order
#:3 any posts featuring or about domesticated cats. specifically real cats, furry/anthropomorphic cats will usually not be tagged as i am not actually a furry myself (i know, surprising lol) and only have a passive appreciation for the craft
#big kitty posts featuring big/non-domesticated cats like lions or leopards
#creatures posts featuring other (usually small) animals
#wizardposting any posts featuring or about wizards. also any roleplay posts that could potentially be about a wizard even if they don’t specifically say so (ie posts about The Amulet™️) and posts about other magic users like witches or warlocks
#on brand any posts featuring both cats and wizards!
#real time challenge this is the tag i use for updates about my stardew valley challenge where i play one in-game day for every real life day (currently on indefinite hiatus)
#op original posts made by me
#os photos/videos made by others but shared to tumblr by me. (i will always give credit to the original creator, the tag is just for my personal organization)
#oc tag whenever i rb a post that reminds me of an oc i will tag their name and then #oc tag. this doesn’t happen that often though, mainly bc i have way too many ocs for posts to remind me of individual ones lol
#angelposting any posts about angels (in the cool tumblr way, not the religious way)
#loopposting posts from the timeloop
#space stuff self explanatory i think. posts about space (not astrology. i do not post about astrology except for rare exceptions, as i have personal issues with it)
#jewish stuff also self explanatory. posts about being jewish/things related to judaism. posts about israel and palestine will not receive this tag, but just know that i will always be pro palestine and my jewish identity is not in conflict with that. if you have a problem with that you can fuck off
#animation posts including animated art. gifs of official animated shows/movies/games will not receive this tag, only animation from independent creators here on tumblr
#sculpture posts that include photos of physical art of some kind, including ceramics but excluding textiles
#textiles posts that contain photos of art made with textiles, including practical items like clothing as long as they’re not fully machine-made
#i just watched a movie whenever i watch a movie i like for the first time, i tag the first post i rb about it with this tag
#teddy talks about his daddy issues on the internet another self explanatory tag lmao
#strobe tw any posts featuring a gif or video that has a strobe effect with rapidly changing brightness and/or color
#gore tw any posts featuring any kind of blood/gore/fresh wounds. posts featuring healed scars or other types of healed wounds will not be tagged unless specifically requested. i will never share any posts featuring fresh or healed self harm wounds, or mentioning self harm in general as that is a personal huge trigger for me
#body horror tw posts involving images or descriptions of body horror (occasionally accidentally mis-tagged as #body horro tw bc of a weird issue i have with tumblr)
#tw any other posts that may potentially be triggering for people. please message me to request more specific trigger tags if you need them. the only trigger tags i will currently refuse to add are for disabled people’s bodies and for food
that’s all i can think of for now! though i have no doubt i’ll add more to this later
bonus kitty photo for reading all the way to the end:
i’m glad heartstopper forever came out now instead of later because i’m rapidly approaching the point where stories set in high school are unwatchable for me
everyone's talking about the ibs/autism haha funny comparison thing while I'm still stuck on the concept that hamsters exist in the wild. like naturally
tf do you mean they're a wild creature. you find those ankle-biters at the pet store
Not a biologist, but the evolution of mammals is way more granular than you might expect. Humans are the sole surviving species of the genus Homo, which was a real party before the other ones went extinct. You're in for a fun time.
Domestic cats are believed to be domesticated not from tigers, but from the African wildcat:
Which evolved to be small just because it's sometimes more useful to be small.
And no, hamsters are not off-brand rats. They're part of the rodent order, which includes beavers, moles, capybaras, guinea pigs (yes, also wild) and lots of other fun things:
Usually the gag rewards don't really work for me. Like it feels better to have no reward or just do a statue like they do for Make Some Noise than something that's barely a joke.
But "Winner winner" "Chicken dinner!!!" and then handing Ify a rotisserie chicken is top notch comedy. Like the comedy gods put their hands on the scale to make sure the giant jacked guy won the protein prize.
And since we don't face direct punishment for missing positive social cues like we do for negative ones, our coping skills and compensatory hypervigilance don't develop the same way. So we go through a world of never recognising positive signals, sometimes spotting negative signals, and knowing for sure there's more negative signals we're still missing, because those keep blowing up in our face.
