I love people

I’m gonna sound sappy here, and probably a little cringe, but oh my god. I love people. I love when people show their appreciation for a creator by making art or a fan project, and the creator shows their appreciation by supporting them and shouting them out. I love people. Someone’s speech at my culmination ended with the line “it doesn’t matter if you got any awards or medals, because your biggest accomplishment is being you.” I love people. I love the labors of love that are fanart, fan songs, and everything in between. People can be horrible, I know, but it’s so important to see the other side of that coin. Like the barista who gave me free brown sugar syrup in my Starbucks drink because it was her favorite drink, too. Like the boba shop worker who helped me customize my drink and gave me recommendations on my first time there. Like the people everywhere who refuse to lie down and take what’s happening in Palestine. Especially the people in Palestine. Kindness and compassion are what make people truly great, and every time I see it I have to just pause. I don’t really know where I’m going with this. It just comes from the feeling I get whenever people work together to make something they truly love. Like the Shorts War ARG. I was watching the Film Theory on it last night and I just couldn’t stop thinking “I love people.” People coming together and making something they love and letting the rest of us love it too. It is so special to me. The sense of community that comes from loving something, and knowing that you share that love with others. Like in the third episode of Generation Loss, when chat was asked to pick between live or die, and our first instinct was to tie the votes. We worked together in a situation meant to break us. Like the seventy people who came together to make the song Voices, all because of their appreciation for Technoblade. How people keep making fanart and refuse to let him be forgotten. It is so important to me that in a world that’s gone to shit, people are still loving. Angus from Night in the Woods said it best: I believe in a universe that doesn’t care and people who do. I love people. Free Palestine.

sorry i had a vision and i just had to draw it

exactly a year ago today, i walked into my local animal shelter with one goal in mind. being a self-confessed sucker, i had gone to the shelter’s website earlier in the week & identified the cat who had been there the longest — a black adult kitty whose stay was 3 1/2 months & counting — and i was not leaving without her

jiji, as i would come to name her, was finishing up ringworm treatment & was thus in isolation away from the other shelter cats. the staff informed me that while she was safe to be adopted out, their shelter policy was that she had to be the last cat i saw that day to avoid any risk of spreading the infection. i assured them that that wasn’t an issue for me — i was here for one cat and one cat only

they repeatedly asked if i was sure about this — i really didn’t at least want to look at any other cats?? my answer didn’t change. yes, i’m sure. i’m here for jiji. no one else.

and so after a bit of paperwork and some wrangling to get her into the cat carrier, jiji came home with me

i quickly learned, however, that the reason jiji had been at the shelter for over three months was that she was, to put it mildly, an asshole. she had been a stray for some time, given birth to kittens very young, and generally had had a rough go of it, so her disposition was understandable, but the fact remained. she was an asshole. upon our first meeting in the shelter, she grabbed onto my foot and started bunny kicking my shoe with gusto. she stole my food as i was eating it. she scratched me so frequently that a coworker noticed & expressed concern.

however, up until this point, i’ve left out a critical detail of the story. a year ago today, possessed by some sort of temporary cat-induced mania, i didn’t adopt one cat. i adopted two.

on the same day, from a totally different shelter, i also adopted a tiny little one eyed kitten named ramona. how i ended up with ramona is another story for another day — the important part is that she was very young and very small, and she joined my hardened stray in my postage stamp sized apartment approximately one hour later

i did my absolute best to follow the standard protocol for introducing cats to each other. i tried to keep ramona in my bedroom and jiji in the living room and to introduce them slowly

but the separation lasted about two days, however, because jiji, my asshole former street cat who viewed my limbs as her favorite scratching posts, took one look at this scruffy little one eyed thing, asked “is anyone going to be this kitten’s mom?”

and didn’t wait for an answer

holy shit y'all I love the scene in genloss where hetch goes "now hero, you can see" and then lighting and angle shifts and then ranboo LOOKS AT THE CAMERA and its so creepy and weird and well done. generation loss may not be perfect, but that scene is. same with like. all of part three. its so well done. that scene specifically needs more attention.

Literally insane how smosh games plays with a bunch of dice and you get the cast losing it like never before.

There are some games that tickle their gambling instincts so much and they become different people but it's hilarious to watch

i (22) told my sister (13) "its crazy that ive known you since you were born. i literally met you when you were one day old" and she just said "problematic age gap." Not only is she a real sentient person now but she's also got jokes

Sometimes comedy rooted in friendship looks like one person saying “get off me” to a fake houseplant and suddenly 4 grown adults are threatening an ornamental banana leaf.

The level of solidarity is as heartwarming as it is chaotic. 😂🩷
