thinking about the time they sent me a seven year old autistic patient to investigate if he was suffering abuse because in every psychological test he kept drawing awful monsters

and I start the consultation already miserable as fuck and I give the kid some pen and paper so I can maybe communicate and see what's on his mind

and then I go WAIT A GODDAMN SECOND I KNOW THOSE MONSTERS

turns out the kid just had a special interest in Five Nights at Freddy's

[spookybuttons-deactivated202101]

I pointed at the monster and went "That's Freddy!" and I've never seen a kid that ecstatic in my life

the mom looked at me as if her son and I belonged at the same satanic cult and that's why I knew the names of the demons in his head

I wrote back to psychologist like "I'm not sure how to explain this but looking up five nights at freddys might bring you progress with this patient"

[spookybuttons-deactivated202101]

at some point the nurses realized the autistic children and I were like, Really Vibing

so they decided to highkey just appoint all of them to my day and it took me almost a month to realize that the fact that I kept arriving and finding that all of today’s appointments were autistic children was Not A Coincidence 

anyway this one time there was a kid who was really into christianity but it was like, specifically angels 

so I’m trying to start up a conversation with him and I ask what he’s reading and he goes “do you know what a nephilim is”

and like for one hellish second my soul is suckerpunched out of my body and thrown straight into supernatural-fanfic-on-wattpad hell, and then I reassume control of my flesh prison, ignoring the mental edits of Dean and Castiel making out, and go “Aren’t those the guys who are half human and half angel?”

and the kid was so fucking happy but the mom was staring at me like ‘why are you privy to this bit of occult jesus lore’

and my heathen lesbian of a self just looks at her and goes 

“i love bible”

It’s almost like taking an invested interest in what your children enjoy will help you understand them.

This is the most embarrassing thing I've ever done, but I don't have any other options. The story goes like this: 10 years ago my wife and I bought a house.

I’m just gonna paste the campaign text here for your convenience: 

This is the most embarrassing thing I've ever done, but I don't have any other options. The story goes like this: 10 years ago my wife and I bought a house. When we separated, she stayed there and was planning to fix it up so we could sell it. I had no idea that she got into financial trouble and the problems with the house started piling up. Some of them we knew about, some happened pretty recently. Now we're in the process of getting divorced, she wants to move, and there's no way I can afford to pay the mortgage much less fix the place enough that it can sell. I've tried several of those 'buy your house for cash' people, and what we owe--a little under $71,000--is a lot for those kinds of sales. Add to that the laundry list of things that need fixes, and I can't find any way to unload the house. My options are either raise the money to fix it and sell it, or go into foreclosure and eventually bankruptcy. For myself, I wouldn't really care about going bankrupt. But my ex is the co-signer on the house and I want to avoid causing her any more grief than she has to deal with already. Some of the repairs include: *A new furnace *A new AC unit (both of which I've talked to a guy about getting done very cheaply as these things go) *A new roof (which I'll have to do myself to keep costs down) *Some electrical work *A new hot water heater (because the guy that installed the last one did it wrong, apparently, so my 5 year old water heater is ruined) *If enough money comes in, I'll also tear out the old tile that's falling apart in the hallway and kitchen and replace it with a nice simple linoleum or vinyl flooring depending on what's on sale. I have some of my own money I can put toward this, but even with that, the goal of this campaign is a minimum. I suppose if some super rich person decided to drop $70,000 as a kindness, I'd just fix the house up and live in it or something, but I don't ever count on winning the lottery. I'm hoping this campaign is shared widely enough that people like me all over the place, folks who work a regular job (I'm a factory worker) and who've been in tough spots, will be willing to throw in a couple bucks. If every one of my Facebook friends donated $10, it would cover this initial goal. I don't care about making a dime on the house. I've tried to basically give it to the Cash for Homes people for the cost of the mortgage so I could walk away and keep my ex from having her credit ruined. I struggle with money every day, and I've been so stressed for the last few weeks I've barely been able to sleep. I've thrown up from the anxiety pushing down on me all the time. I really just need some help, and I'm hoping that even if you can't afford to put in a few bucks, you'll share this campaign with a kind word or two.

Homeless Cat Opens Its Eyes For The First Time In Months, Stuns Everyone With Their Beauty

Cotton the cat was alone on the streets, starving, disease-ridden and close to death. His eyes were scabbed over with mange and he was being eaten alive by mites, finding any kind of food without the use of his eyes was next to impossible. But then his guardian angel arrived.

With lots of care, Cotton has finally opened his eyes

Necromancer: Did you know that dinosaur skeletons in museums are usually fake casts?

Someone: Did the Internet tell you that?

Necromancer: Nope, just a series of disappointing museum trips.

[themintyqueer]

Somewhere in the archives of that museum is a very terrified scientist

[feralcivilitas]

Elsewhere, there is a very happy Wizard.

I needed to reblog it for this addition.

Fun fact: if you know your feline body language, you’ll notice that the lynx is deferring to the housecat. As far as these two are concerned, the housecat is the higher-ranking cat.

[thecarvingwitch]

OH MY GOSH

It’s because the cat is that lynx’s mom
