Hello! I’m Mercury, and you’re watching Disney Channel! (Joking :p)
This is my blog, which is mostly just something I have as a source of entertainment so I don’t start to lose my mind from total social isolation. I mostly just repost stuff, but if I ever make an original post I will tag it accordingly. I finally have gotten around to making a few tags for organizing (took me a bit, but whatever) so there will be a small list of tags at the bottom for convenience.
No DNI, except for Hello Kitty h8rs, y’all can die in a ball pit uwu
Credit to Berxc on YT for my pfp! Really great to commission, so check them out! :D
Tag glossary:
Obligatory art tag- any art I like/reblogged
The catboy speaks- any original posts
The catboy intro post- you’re here! :D
Catasks- any asks I answer :)
Catpolls- what it says on the tin
Catboy reviews- me blogging about something new I’m trying, probably gonna be a lot of alcohol because I just turned 21 and so I’m trying a lot of new kinds of alcohol now that I can just buy it and don’t have to pay a weasel to buy it for me :D
Catboy lewds- me being gay and horny on main, you can’t stop me >:3
Cats on drugs and shit cause I’m in fucking weedcraft: I have done the impossible and made a “I’m drunk and high” tag while drunk and high, I should be named the saint of alcohol and weed
Bestieposting- also what it says on the tin
Doggyposting: friend who uses tumblr and who I like sharing memes with, hi Auburn :DDD
Ferretposting- previously known as my toxic ex, now is my beloved beastwife, she looks like a ferret teehee :333
Weaselposting: these are about my ex girlfriend, who was previously the only decent ex of mine, so she has more positive things written about her. Probably won’t be updated much anymore unless I’m bored or see something that reminds me of her
Lil guys- cute animals or anything else that makes me squee
Blorboposting- blorbos, my favorite characters that I see and go fucking crazy over
The adventures of tiny Mercury- Animal Crossing tag, which I’m playing basically every day and is currently (on the day of our lord July 22, 2024) the only reason I have a will to live.
Catboy complains into the void- this is just me being a lil hater about literally anything I don’t like, probably block this tag if you don’t want to hear my annoying opinions or anything involving potential discourse
Catboy archive- old posts from when I didn’t really understand tumblr, they aren’t very good (may feature new additions in tags prefaced by an -> to indicate that they are new tags)
Also any old posts I’ve made are not tagged, I just don’t have the time and energy to go back and tag them so yeah ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (no longer accurate, will eventually get back to backtagging old posts)
it’s a little bit ridiculous that the trans erasure discourse has ended at any place except “erasure, similarly to all transphobia, is a thing that happens to both transmascs and transfems but looks different person to person”
the annoying thing is it’s not even hard to never miss. you just go “idk i think it depends” to anyone trying to make hardline statements about trans people and assume that if a trans person can be oppressed in some way that every trans person and quite a few cis people can also be oppressed that way. this shit is so fucking easy and everyone on here is so bad at it
Hey hey, as a librarian, can I just say don’t pace yourself at the library. I get a lot of customers saying “oh I shouldn’t get too many books out at once” but like you should!!!! Max out your card, take everything we have on a subject you’re interested in, make a book fort in your home. We love that shit! It doesn’t matter if you read them or not; just take them for an adventure and bring them back whenever they’re due!
For public libraries, one of the ways we secure funding year to year is lending. Governments don’t want to fund more books if they’re not being used and the way we measure use is by issues. Regardless of whether you read it or not, whether you have it for a day or a month, if you issue it to your library card, we get the stats! It makes the library look good!
Help your local library; get books out even if you know you can’t read them all!
not to be a hedonist but. pleasure IS the whole point, my loves. we are made for pleasure. humans have not survived out of spite or sheer grit or simply to make more humans. we live for pleasure. the pleasure of licking the last delicious crumbs off your fingers and feeling sunlight on your skin and massaging a loved one's shoulders. we're made to fill our bellies with delicious food, to nap in soft grass, to touch each other in joy and comfort.
there is no shame or guilt in our bodies doing what they were made to do. and we are made for pleasure.
I doubt that this post is gonna get much traction (I’ve had to ask for help in this desperate of a situation before and my blog is small so it went nowhere lol) but my SSI benefits were cut out of nowhere, and I’m having to try to scrape my way through however long it takes to get my paperwork submitted with the self sufficiency office.
For now I really just need help with dinner for tonight, tomorrow I have a meeting with a social worker and I deep cleaned my whole place so that we would focus on anything but my apartment being messy (aka getting the ball rolling on SSI paperwork) and I’ll see what I can do to get any and all resources and info during that. I’m just trying to get food for myself so I don’t feel like I’m going to pass out/generally sick all the time for a little while.
Anything helps, and I really appreciate any reblogs if you’re unable to chuck a few bucks at me (but I’m not mad if you scroll past, it’s not a moral failing imo)
Cashapp/venmo: Lavendercatboy
PayPal: DM me (it’s got my full name as my handle and I don’t really wanna doxx myself lmao)
anyone else ever get that urge to delete your blog and stop talking to your friends and family and throw your phone and computer away and just disappear until ppl eventually forget you exist and you can finally be At Peace
Fucked up that if you make a minor social blunder you can't ask the person if they hate you forever now because that within itself is another social blunder
