Reminder to please, please, please skip outdoor rodenticide when handling rodent infestations.

(image id: a picture of a black bait box for mouse poison, with the title text "looking for a fun and free activity this summer? give destroying these stupid-ass bait boxes a try!" it then elaborates to say "you might see these boxes around commercial buildings, apartments, or occasionally private residences. most people dont want mice or rats in their buildings- so what's the big deal?

placing poison bait outside means you're incapable of targeting a specific species. If you place bait boxes outside, you run the risk of poisoning outdoor friends like native mice, voles, and chipmunks. Additionally, animals dont die immediately after ingesting rat poison- meaning that predators like hawks frequently suffer from rodentcide poisoning, along with unlucky domestic pets like dogs and cats.

if you have a rat or mouse problem, please handle it responsibly and dont put your native wildlife at risk." end id)

felt weirdly weepy while drawing this. about the drawing. i guess that’s because that carrot is her baby, and she took care of it, every day, to make sure it grew. she knelt in the dirt and watered it with her hands. and now she’s finally holding it in her arms. maybe the entire baby metaphor doesn’t hold up since she pulled it from the ground. but it doesn’t have to. she really loves carrots. the sweater she wears has carrots embroidered on the collar, and her hat has an orange ribbon, the color of carrots. she’s found what she loves in life and now she has it right in front of her house and she puts down her old creaky knees every morning to tend to what she loves. i guess i was just kind of overcome with how good some things are, you know? i think if you can find at least one pocket of happiness to curl yourself up in, that’s good. that’s what makes the sun worth it.

while i highly appreciate the new trend of people adding image descriptions to as many posts as they can, i think if youre going to write an image description for a well known meme you should make sure you're familiar with the context of the original meme or else maybe you're not the most qualified to be writing the description for that particular image. this post inspired by me seeing an ID of a version of the "ariana grande we're really in it now" meme that described Manny Jacinto as "a white man"

[clowniconography]

also on a much more sinister note, intentionally misrepresenting what an image depicts when writing an image description for the sake of being funny, which is an (albeit rare) thing that i have actually been seeing people do, is literally disgusting and the fact that people could think thats acceptable is mind boggling to me. like obviously describing an image in a funny way that adds to the experience of the image is fine but ultimately image descriptions are a utility and accessibility measure that is meant to at least approximate the actual image and obscuring that for the sake of jokes is ableist xoxoxo

Here’s a Google doc with template descriptions for many different memes (created by @orange-airplanes​ and @pathos-logical​) which I got from @a-captions-blog in case you don't know where to start!
