Ode to Spot

by Lt. Cmdr. Data |Felis Catusis /your taxonomic nomenclature /An endothermic quadruped carniverous by nature /Your visual, olfactory,and auditory senses /Contribute to your hunting skills and natural defenses. /I find myself intrigued by your sub-vocal oscillations /A singular development of cat communications /That obviates your basic hedonistic predilection /For a rhythmic stroking of your fur to demonstrate affection. /A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents /You would not be so agile if you lacked its counter balance /And when not being utilized to aid in locomotion /It often serves to illustratethe state of your emotion /Oh Spot, the complex levels of behavior you display /Denote a fairly well developed cognitive array /And though you are not sentient, /Spot, /and do not comprehend /I nonetheless consider /you a true and valued friend.|

[[[Trans women/femmes face the intersection of both misogyny and transphobia. Transmisogyny.

and

Trans men/mascs face transphobia. We dont face prejudice on the basis of the "men" part. Men dont face discrimination on the sole part of being men. Trans men have and will face problems on the premise of sexism from being dfab. Not from being men!! ]]]

I am disabled. (No you don't get to know how)

Every person should have the freedom to exist and be given food, shelter and water. Without paying for it.

i love how this is always showing up on my dash entirely free of the context that the ood’s response to this question is ‘the beast shall rise from the pit and make war against god’

so many bands write songs about “relatable issues” that don’t resonate while the mountain goats write songs about issues no one has ever experienced before that are universal

As someone who isn't a furry but has very much grown up around furry art I kinda forget that it's shocking to some people. It's kinda just what a bunch of queer art looks like. That anthro dragon girl might as well be my coworker, what's your fucking problem?

ever since the early 2000s when a couple brain-dead frat boys on campus said "Cute skirt" at me and giggled, I've worn kilts pretty much every day

because to hell with the delicate gender-enforcing losers who don't understand the origins of kilts, to hell with people sticking their noses into other people's choices, and to hell with the whole notion of gendered clothing

Do the kids these days know that the traditional payment for "having your friends help you move" is "order everyone pizza after"?

Feed your friends. Feed your loved ones. Feed the people who help you. Feed your neighbors. Feed your community.

Seriously though, with a lot of people, especially friends, you can shamelessly and blatantly trade pizza / food for help and labor <3

I think we should figure out what age we’re living in now so we can say how it’s collapsing to each other

[insomniac-arrest]

Our age of plastics is collapsing

[insomniac-arrest]

Our age of information is collapsing! *remembers generative AI, nods to self* our age of information is collapsing.

In every way this is set up to be a joke like any other short video, it even uses the trope of main character in a wig to represent their mom, but it isn't funny at all. It's just sweet and nice

Actually, no, I don't think that friendships dropping like flies in your late 20s and early 30s because no one has time for that between overwork and family obligations and marriage and kids and partners and the ritual of the time slayer is normal and ok. No I don't think deep conversations and spontaneous adventures being replaced with a tired coffee every six months is a normal part of growing up. I don't think that emotional intimacy and soul bonds disintegrating in the face of practical inconvenience is a fact of life. I think that means something is deeply deeply wrong with our society and I will never forgive it for the friends I've lost
