THE TRAINS HAVE CARTOON TAMAS ON THEM

[ultrafacts]

Sad update everyone, Tama recently passed away… An estimated 3,000 people, including railway officials, attended Tama the cat’s funeral on Sunday, days after she died of heart failure aged 16. [x]

[retro-geek-deactivated20220412]

For those who haven’t read articles about it, the local shrine elevated her to a god. She’s now the Eternal Stationmaster and patron god of the station.

Now I’m crying thanks

[sapphic-matriarchy]

and a new cat was hired right?

[clarenecessities]

yep! her name is Nitama (essentially ”second tama” or “tama II”) and she served under Tama as an apprentice before being appointed her deputy

she works very hard

[beasti]

Everytime this crosses my dash, I reblog. It is the law.

I’m crying at 11pm over train cats

[sighinastorm]

Nitama, already now a mature cat (born 2010), has a protege named Yontama (fourth Tama, b. 2016).  There is no information available for either the physical befellment or tragic self-disgrace which has removed Santama from contention.

I made some ASMR ambient atmosphere mixes for your highly specific needs

1.) Haunted campout in a northern forest where strange beasts lurk in the distance and whispers of the unquiet dead keep you awake through the long dark night  2.) The Joker is probably getting ready to murder you horribly in an abandoned warehouse 3.) Killer Croc hunts you through the Gotham sewers, occasionally eating corpses  4.) Man has pleasant vanilla sex with a monster in cheap motel bed 5.) You’re the last gunslinger marching across a dreary wasteland after the world has moved on, pursuing the man in black across the desert while the machines of the old world still hum their death throes

[glumshoe]

6.) woman flees across frozen tundra from evil mechanical whales from another dimension 7.) frightend young boy is chased through forest by the Wild Hunt and their eldritch hounds

[glumshoe]

8.) Baba Yaga has kidnapped you and prepares to cannibalize you as part of a hearty and well-balanced meal  9.) Drinking a stolen soda at the bottom of the Mariana Trench and burping from the highly-pressurized gas 10.) mute woman has quiet sexy encounter with an amphibious monster in an aquarium 11.)  n00b necromancer digs up bones from a church graveyard for the first time, crying with guild and anxiety as angry spirits murmur in anger at her trespassing

[glumshoe]

12.) Hiding scared and alone in the dark as the fabric of reality is unwoven by interdimensional forces beyond our understanding, and the world as we know it comes to a dark and brutal end 13.) Amateur cryptid-hunter hikes alone through woods on a breezy summer’s day, searching for evidence of the paranormal and oblivious to danger 14.) lesbian lumberjack chops down tree in the early morning while thinking dreamily about her new wife

[glumshoe]

15.) Waiting on a cliff over the Irish sea, impatiently awaiting the return of your beloved gay selkie bride 16.) Sitting in the woods, minding your own business, when some Elf LARPers walk by 17.) Typing angry messages on a Justice League fan forum about why Batman is not overrated, while sitting alone in the Batcave 18.) Sleeping in on a rainy day while a cat purrs on your chest and someone makes you breakfast and tea 19.) Drifting in and out of sleep on a crisp April night in the woods 20.) Chilling on a riverbank under the summer sun 21.) Standing on the Innsmouth shoreline contemplating your inevitable transformation into a fishperson and your descent beneath the waves; you can hear your ancestors calling you

things you can do to help make the gw2 community better and safer– for yourself and others– in the wake of the JP issue:

regardless of your opinion on JP herself, make it clear that you do not stand for bigotry. express disapproval for the people who are saying bigoted and aggressive things, and let people know that your blog is a safe space for women and other marginalized groups who might feel shaken by this atm

be careful what you say about this discourse before you post something. think to yourself, “does it look like im agreeing with the community’s hate and aggression if i say this? are people going to feel potentially unsafe around me after i post this?”

SPEAK! UP! let anet know if you disagree with their handling of this. speak up when issues like this arise. don’t let bigoted voices become the only ones in the room before it’s too late. you don’t have to argue with people– just post your opinion on the forums and then leave and ignore your notifications if you don’t want to debate people

join or found a guild committed to providing a non-hostile environment that doesn’t let people toss around bigotry or slurs

go into your chat settings (tap \ and fuss with the little arrows next to the chat tabs) and turn off map and potentially say chat if you can’t stand it. you can even make one tab that has them on for events etc but another that has them off if you don’t want to see it

if you do keep map chat on, if you see people spouting misogynistic shit, slurs, etc, toss in a casual “not cool, dude :/” and then tab out of map if you want. ignore backlash if you don’t wanna get into fights. in a map where people are being bigoted in the chat, there are usually tons of other people who are uncomfy with it as well but don’t say anything because they’re too afraid to speak first. they’ll feel comforted/empowered by seeing someone standing up to it

use your “block” and “report > verbal abuse” and “report > innappropriate character name” buttons liberally. people spouting bigotry counts as “verbal abuse”. people who have names mocking marginalized groups is against the ToS.

if you’re in a party with friends and get some pugs to fill it up, and you and your friends are able to hijack the majority vote, then kick people who say nasty shit or slurs. don’t put up with it. you can find a new pug. people who are going to act like that don’t deserve the party space. don’t let them feel welcome

these are just a few things you can do and there’s quite a bit more, but to summarize it, the rational voices of the gw2 community need to be louder against this. it can be hard and scary to combat bigotry in a videogame but remember the loud bigots are just a loud, small fraction who has been allowed to run wild. the amount of people who won’t tolerate it is much larger and we need to demonstrate that

Justice Kennedy is retiring.

What this means: Trump will be able to install a 40-something year old ultra-conservative judge on the Supreme Court who will be able to steer this country to the hard right for the next 30-40 years and there will be nothing anyone can do about it.

People of Tumblr, we’re throwing up the Bat Signal.

Though this Administration has vowed today to sign an executive order that would end the separation of families at the border stemming from its “zero tolerance” policy, we must continue to apply pressure and do our part. Families should have never been separated in the first place.

Here are five ways that you can help:

1. Call your Senator and let them know that immigration reform is still needed. Call the Senate switchboard at [phone] and ask for your Senator’s office.

2. Donate to organizations that are providing support to immigrant families being held in detention centers all over the country:

The Florence Immigration Project - The Florence Project is providing free legal and social services to migrants being detained in Arizona.

The Texas Civil Rights Project - Lawyers in Texas have banned together to fight for “equality and justice in and out of the courts.”

ACLU of Texas Border Rights Center

RAICES Bond Fund - This fund provides money to release parents from detention centers so they can look for their kids.

CARA Family Detention Pro Bono Project - CARA provides legal representation for families in detention centers.

KIND - Kids In Need of Defense (KIND) provides legal representation for unaccompanied minors in detention centers. They’ve also provided other ways for you to help oppose family separation here.

CARA Pro Bono Project - Help alleviate the cost of housing for volunteer lawyers, as well as sending coloring books to those children in detention centers.

Refugee Caravan - Donate what you can to help detained immigrants make phone calls to their families and lawyers.

3. Contact the Immigration Justice Campaign if you, or someone you know, are fluent in Spanish and can assists lawyers at the border over the phone as an interpreter.

4. Contact Northwest Immigrant Rights Project and volunteer your services as a Spanish-speaking interpreter or as a lawyer for those parents who have been sent to the state of Washington without their children.

5. If you’re a lawyer, law student, paralegal or Spanish-speaking interpreter, contact the Dilley Pro Bono Project for a week-long shift as a volunteer in Texas.

Let’s do what we can to right this wrong because children and families should never have to suffer these kinds of irreparable trauma.
