I always forget to post here on the day I'm actually out soooo beach trip with just my pup again.

My uni friends kinda cancelled on me because no one communicates and it sucked cause this isn't the first time no one communicates and doesn't tell us until like 12hrs before that only like 1 or 2 other people are available and they don't really want to go.

I still had a good day with my dog we played on the beach, I got coffee and she got a pup cup and we split an ice cream before we left, she probably got a little too much dairy but it's a one off for the year and it didn't upset her stomach so I think it's okay will just be more cautious in the future.

Dog time.

We did a short trip to comic con today, about 90 mins each way on public transport and we only stayed about 45 mins, got ice cream then headed home because it started to get too hot for me.

Rosie doesn't care as much about the heat but I find anything over about 23c unbearable and the hall comic con was in wasn't air conned.

Rosie likes to choose the dirtiest possible spots to lay so when she tucked herself into the corner at the train station on our way home she got gross chewing gum on her leg, had to cut it off when we got home not worth the effort to try and work it out any other way

Hate when my tics are getting better and then my mom points out that they are.. so I get reminded I have them and my body is TWEAKING again

Me : (literally doing nothing)

Mom: your tics have been quiet!

Me : ...

Editing this to say @heywhydidyoudothat triggers me so if my mom points it out of us we're both tweaking 😒

The weather has cooled it is 18c and my hand is free from it's brace but not quite right yet got some muscle rebuilding and physio to do probably.

In celebration of the cooler weather me and Rosie met up with some friends from Rosie, got lunch and went to an illusion museum, I didn't do much training but I'm so fucking proud of her, it was an almost 12 HR day with doctors appointment then trip into the city and she takes absolutely everything in her stride is perfectly behaved when in non pet friendly places, slept through lunch and alerted my friend to their anxiety.

Only thing I think that didn't go well was she was freaked out by a dark part of the illusion museum and the vortex tunnel so we skipped the vortex tunnel instead of trying to work through it, that isn't a big enough deal for me to want to work on it while out with friends.

Have some photo spam it's mostly just Rosie being a chill girly and settling

I love her shrimpy curled up on her side dead thing pose she has picked up recently I think it's because she is more comfortable and confident so doesn't feel the need to jump at everything anymore,

[scaravek]

I broke my hand but that doesn't stop me working my pup as much as I can to keep up her training because we have been slacking. I think I want to keep logging my training exercises on Tumblr it's actually kinda enjoyable to write

This was a few days ago when it was still hot but not as bad closer to 18/19c.

She was an angel on the train in both directions, I only got the 1 photo on the platform while waiting to go home. On the way home the ticket inspector was surprised she was there because they didn't notice her until she moved to get a treat.

I tried to get a pic of her sitting Infront of the Scottie but it's busy and people kept passing really close behind me making me anxious so she kept breaking her stay to check on me, I'll probably try this again because I want a good pic of her with it

My blood sugar crashed a few minutes after my attempts with the photoshoot so we went and got coffee, a muffin and a pup cup. Rosie loves a pup cup and had a nap while I ate.

I'm really proud of her walking through the busy station because I normally hold her leash in my right hand and my coffee in my left but my right hand is broken and she didn't pull or anything just safely navigated with me to the lift. I'm hoping I'm not too far off being able to use my cane and have Rosie with me

the fact that we only have “herculean task” and “sisyphean task” feels so limiting. so here’s a few more tasks for your repertoire

icarian task: when you have a task you know you’re going to fail at anyways, so why not have some fun with it before it all comes crashing down

cassandrean task: when you have to deal with people you KNOW won’t listen to you, despite having accurate information, and having to watch them fumble about when you told them the solution from the start (most often witnessed in customer service)

feel free to chime in i ran out of ideas much faster than i anticipated

[sherbertilluminated]

Promethean task: opposite of a Cassandraean task. You have the right information, and SOMEONE has to share it. But it's all in the delivery and if you're the person to identify the problem you WILL be hated forever.

[thearrogantemu]

Oedipal Task: (1) Attempting to avoid an unspeakably awful outcome and in doing so creating the circumstances that will bring it about. (2) Trying to solve an problem and discovering that you are in fact the problem you are trying to solve.

[theoppositeofprofound]

Odyssean task: you’ll complete it but it’ll take 20 times longer than it should and involve multiple side quests and mini-adventures

[nitewrighter]

Medean Task: Doing this is going to destroy you and what you love just as much as the person you're trying to destroy. Everyone is telling you this, and you already know this. But your "fuck that guy and what he thinks he can do to me" instinct is just that strong. Also admittedly you get an extremely badass exit when all's said and done.

[hon3vbees]

as tourettes awareness month ends my last thing i feel the need to say is please remember not all tics are noticeable!! if someone tells you they have ts but you’ve never seen them tic that does not mean they don’t. tourettes by nature waxes and wanes in intensity, for example i went through a period where my tics were very mild over the school year, and a lot of people at college honestly probably don’t even know i have tourettes. and some tics may not be obvious to outsiders, but just as frustrating or disabling. just because you can’t always see it affecting someone, don’t assume it’s not true or it’s easy to deal with!

In another universe, Sam Reich is part of Batman's rogues' gallery.

[shadowfellefox]

@thebibliosphere

[thebibliosphere]

Him and the chocolate guy.

[theelitistpirate]

Nightwing: "...but why is it made of chocolate?"

Amaury Guichon aka Chocolate Guy, incredulous: "It is a bombe au chocolat, what else should it be made of?"

Sam Reich, popping around a corner, delight in his voice:"I have a better question: HOW DID YOU MAKE A BOMB FROM CHOCOLATE!?"

"WTF where did you come from?"

Reich, with manic glee: "Me? I've been here the whole time! :D"

Batman swings in, punching them both.

What do you think @thebibliosphere? Is there something here?

[thebibliosphere]

"What is this?" the kidnapped socialite demands, rocking uselessly in the chair they're tied to in the abandoned confectionary factory, "What do you think you're doing?"

"Ah, mon petit chou pourri, isn't it obvious?" Amaury Guichon asks, standing over a bubbling vat that smells sickeningly sweet. His smile takes on a sinister gleam. "It's death by chocolate."

The sound of Nightwing slow clapping from the rafters is heard.

Meanwhile, the League of Assassins is taking a vote over WhatsApp to eliminate Sam Reich because they're worried he'll take over if he gets bored enough.

"Hang on, I know a guy," the Riddler says.

Brennan Lee Mulligan enters the chat...

I think it's so funny how we bred JOBS into dogs. I have two shih tzus and they were bred to be lap dogs. All they care about is looking cute and cuddling with people. Meanwhile my grandma has a border collie and that dog needs to feel so useful all the time, he acts like he will pass away if he doesn't have a job to do constantly

[halomancer]

On one hand this is extremely fucking funny, but on the other hand, it really boggles my mind how many people punish their dogs for just… doing the thing they were bred to do.

Your husky isn’t “hyperactive”, it’s bred to pull sleds for 8 hours straight and you have it in a 400 sq ft yard.

Your English sheepdog isn’t “pushy”, it’s bred to herd sheep, and you have neither to space nor the herd to allow it.

Your terrier isn’t “nippy”, it’s bred to kill rats and your hamster looks a hell of a lot like one.

Your Catahoula isn’t “mean to animals”, it’s bred to hunt any and all animals smaller than it, and you didn’t acclimate it to your cat.

Your Lhasa Apso isn’t “yappy”, it’s bred to bark at any tiny noise and alert watchmen to intruders

Like Jesus Christ, if you can’t provide an environment where your dog can’t fulfill its literal life purpose, maybe?? Don’t get that dog??? And if you do, maybe know the breed characteristics so you can redirect those traits into more constructive outlets????

[lemonsharks]

Both your most common doodle's parts (labra and golden) want to hunt and retrieve water birds so the best suggestion I can give y'all is congratulations on your new duck hunting hobby.

#people will overlook the perfect breeds to suit their needs based on just their looks#and get a work dog because it looks cool

Any time someone sees Herschel and says "AWWW I want a Corgi <3" (because he is Very Cute (TM)), I immediately reply: "Do not get a Corgi unless you have a job for it to do. They were bred to bully livestock across the hills of Wales. This is basically a Border Collie that knows he is cute enough to get away with murder. If you get one and it doesn't have a job, it will apply its livestock-bullying instincts to YOU. Herschel's job specifically is to help manage my crippling ADHD, because I don't have a bull for him to micromanage." This gets me odd looks at the home depot but it does get the point across.

At the risk of sounding anti-intellectual, I think that college should be free and also not a requirement for employment outside of highly specialized career fields

[kineticpenguin]

At the risk of sounding like an effete intellectual, I do actually think you should be allowed to just take college courses indefinitely

[yourunderwaterskies]

technically you can, if you don't care about degrees.

Free Harvard courses. Free Courses from Stanford. Free Courses from MIT. Free courses from Yale. Free courses from Princeton.

Free courses on Coursera.

Free Courses on EDx Free Courses on Alison

For paid, there's The Great Courses+/Wonderium. 20$ a month for unlimited courses.

When searching, the phrases you're looking for are Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), or you can do a general search of say, "free online college courses." Oh, and so you don't get surprised like I did, have an avoid: Hillsdale College is a conservative Christian site and not a valid MOOC place. Sign up with them and you will get things like THIS IS WHY THE LEFT IS TURNING YOUR KIDS TRANS AND GAY in your inbox.

@yourunderwaterskies I wanted to say thank you so much for adding these links, seriously, they've been life-changingly helpful to me-

And I also wanted to mention that humanitarian organisations have free courses too, like the Red Cross on international humanitarian law.

Remember the answer is: I stole them from the president.

What a privilege it is to get old.

What a privilege it is to show signs of aging.

What a privilege it is to not have passed at a young age.

What a privilege it is to have smile lines, wrinkles, graying hair, healing scars, and other signs your body has lived for years.

What a privilege it is to get old.
