“Why should rich people pay more” because fuck ‘em
“So you are okay for paying more when you have money” I am not excluded from ‘fuck ‘em’ when relevant
“I am not excluded from ‘fuck ‘‘em’ when relevant” is surprisingly powerful as both a statement and philosophy
I've been slooooowly working on getting the feral cat population in my neighborhood under control, but there's one particular cat I can't catch. I call her Pretty Lady.
Pretty Lady is a grizzled old street cat who was at some point fixed based on the fact her ear was tipped. She has a bizarre face that I'm not sure if it came from genetics or a current health issue, but her eyes are sort of...tilted? I've tried to get a picture of her to show my coworker who used to be a vet, but have not succeeded.
Anyways. She's grizzled. And old. And has started to look a little rough around the edges, so I've been trying harder to catch her to try and get her some vet care.
Pretty Lady refuses to be caught. She's right there for morning snackies when I bring them out, but attempts to interact beyond food are met with serious hisses. The trap in my yard is a joke to her, no matter what food I put inside. And god forbid any of the other neighborhood cats try to come eat the food I give her. That is Not Allowed.
Except! Except!
Pretty Lady has recently acquired a little himbo boyfriend. The boyfriend, who I have named Target because he is orange and has a perfect circle target pattern in his fur, is a wee baby tomcat who is juuuuuust starting to get his cheeks. I have witnessed Target fall out of my shed more than once (it's a one foot drop for reasons I don't understand given it was custom built), seen him startle at falling leaves MULTIPLE times, and seen him have a full on yowling fight with a stick.
Pretty Lady has taught Target to avoid the trap in my yard, shares her food with him, and makes him stand guard while she eats. Target seems incredibly pleased by this arrangement.
I do hope I can eventually catch them both, or at least Target to get him fixed, but in the meantime I am rather enjoying watching this play out.
the thing they dont tell you about learning to "trust the process" is that you forget and relearn it every single time you make a new piece of art. unfortunately there is no cure either

There's a cool Undertale SOUL trait quiz going around, I'm Undertale Yellow.
A weighted assessment of the seven human soul virtues.
I do think the ability to emoji-react is a net win for human communication. not only does it give you an outlet for 'I see and acknowledge this but don't have a verbal response' but it also adds a pleasing alethiometer element to things
my coworker announces that he's off to the dentist. someone reacts with a tooth emoji. is this a statement of dentist solidarity? a wish for my coworker to return with more (or fewer?) teeth than he set out with? simple word association? who can say
Friend of mine calls it active listening. Ah yes we are speaking of tooths. I understand and respond. Here it a tooth image. I have heard you.
Some doodles for my headcanon that Toph attracts animals because she's steady and strong like the Earth and they feel super comfortable and safe around her. Kinda like basking in the sun on a steady mountain top Also a sadder one on how she bonds with Appa over a shared experience :)

It’s so crazy that suicide prevention is just people going awwww don’t!! Awwww come on noooooooooo stopppppp
One of the best ones I saw was a thing noting that every single one of the few survivors of suicide jumps off of the Golden Gate Bridge realized, on the way down, that the problems they were killing themselves over actually were fixable or could be worked through...except for the now - extremely unfixable - problem of gravity.
Went to the Holocaust Museum in DC once. There was a video interview of an Auschwitz survivor who said he and some other prisoners stayed up all night with a man who wanted to kill himself. The man didn’t kill himself and survived to liberation.
In the video the survivor said “Never seek a permanent solution to a temporary problem. And they’re all temporary problems.”
Hearing that from a guy who survived the Holocaust rewired my brain a little bit.
I think something a lot of people don't understand is that depression is not suicidality, and suicidality is not depression. People can, and are, depressed without being suicidal, and sometimes suicidality peaks as people are emerging from depression. Suicidality is a wave, and the trick is to allow that wave to crest and subside WITHOUT acting on it. Whatever it takes to ride it out. For some people that's distraction, like watching television. For others it's calling a friend -- not to talk about the suicidality, but just to talk. For others it could be as simple as going to sit in a coffee shop or library, because the presence of other people is a huge diminisher of suicide risk. That's what suicide safety planning is about. It's like having any other type of emergency plan, like a plan for fire or evacuation. It's making a plan when you are in the frame of mind to do so, so that you can just DO the plan without having to think about it when the occasion arises. When you're in the midst of suicidal ideation, or even intent, you're not in a problem-solving mood. So knowing past!you, with the help of a therapist hopefully, came up with the plan and all you have to do is follow up until the wave crests and subsides, is what allows you to see another day.

There’s a really compassionate and well-written paper/book/thing called Suicide: The Forever Decision that’s written specifically for people who are currently suicidal. The letter to the reader at the beginning is wonderful and deeply understands how to talk to someone who’s suicidal without preaching or talking down to them.
It’s very honest. It’s very clear. It’s very kind. It presents you with a lot of information and a lot of understanding and lets you take it all in like the autonomous human you are, and make decisions from an informed place. It goes over the reality of suicide attempts, pain involved, likelihoods of survival, after effects of attempts, and how to get help if you want it after reading all of that and learning about the reality of suicide attempts.
You can read it for free here: https://qprinstitute.com/pdfs/Forever_Decision.pdf
No one can ever stop you if you’re really determined. Only you can stop yourself. If you’re suicidal and there’s ANY tiny part of you that wants a chance to not go down that route, but can’t convince the rest of you yet, give this short book a try. Or share it with anyone you know who might need it.
(Getting swindled by a genie) it’s like talking to a fucking tumblr user with you

i could never get a botox because i love looking at people with a frown & disgusted look
It is really, really funny that the new Spider-man movie decided to solve the "why is this one vigilante kid the only person in a world of superheroes tackling this threat" problem by stating that it's because Yelena Belova is currently in charge of deciding what rises to an Avengers-level threat and she mostly decides based on vibes. Immaculate. No notes.
my most Millennial trait is that i want big screen to think properly. to compose my thoughts. app exists for your thing but no website? bad bad bad not good for think, need big screen for think. i wrote this post on the small screen btw
