ask post: what's your favorite way to travel? Is there a mode of travel you haven't done that you want to experience?

I hate all modes of travel. I hate being the driver of a car the least I guess???

I WOULD LIKE TO TELEPORT. more serious answer— maybe more trains??

Instinct! Also, for real, it's easier to fight gyms than to level them up, so whatever is most common in your area is what you DON'T want.

I only just started playing so not really sure what’s in the area. Interestingly, S was reading some article and apparently, based on something-something-psycology and Ingress, yellow is going to be the least popular color. Though, also, not sure how interested I am in competitive gym stuff...

/chants COME JOIN TEAM INSTINCT (jk i would be thrilled if you joined us but take your time to decide!!)

Hehe, I’m putting off the decision for now... the more meme’s I see, the more tempting Team Instinct is...

Take your time! No need to rush.

just read the nobody wins 'verse and FOLLOWED IMMEDIATELY, it is SO GOOD and i am SUPREMELY EXCITED to hear more about your OCs and your worldbuilding!!! omg Kix and his IMMINENT ERUPTION OF RAGE re: Jedi therapy policies. Also the little bit about obi-wan 'refusing' when anakin asks him about the adrenaline stims???? oh my god did the council SUGGEST HE TAKE SOME??? I??? AM JUST SO????

Thank you so much for your beautiful comment and for liking my fic and deciding to follow my blog!

If you have any questions about OCs and world building ask away and, if it’s not spoilers, I promise I will answer! If it’s spoilers I will just tell you it is.

Kix is about to set off a bomb, with whis words alone but sometimes those are more effective than any C4.

Someone, or maybe a few someones who knows?, suggested he take them. I won’t neither deny or confirm who it was, but your theory did make me laugh happily :D

Thanks again for writing!

OH?? i never made it that far, should i just.. read the battle bits???

THE BATTLE BITS ARE SO GOOD. 

FOR THE FINAL BATTLE: START AT CHAPTER 15. 

The guerrilla warfare stuff before them is pretty brutal but also very well written, but def wouldn’t recommend if the series was getting too depressing for you. Though as for overall tone: laurence ends up in a lot better place as far as his own personal conscious than he started. So it can be a brutally depressing book but he does come out if it, if that tempts youb ack in at all.

but regardless DEFINITELY READ THE FINAL BATTLE. It’s actually making me want to draw up fancy maps for it.

WIP guessing game: smirk

So I have two WIPs currently, here is a line from both of them:

He saw Jordan smirk out of the corner of his eye before Eric kicked him to remind him to keep a straight face.

He’s a couple of inches taller than she is with medium-length brown hair parted on the side, wearing a pink polo, tan shorts, and a smirk someone must have told him was attractive once.

a lot of vets receive promotional benefits for pushing one food or another, so i am actually super wary of vet recommendations for cat food. just like hair salons, veterinary clinics often receive a significant amount of their income from product promotion – my vet exclusively sells hill's products, and there are ads all over the office for them. so 'your vet recommended it it must be good' is actually not necessarily true. (though not necessarily false, either, of course.)

Shoot, I did not know about this!

[eponymous-rose]

hey, so if it isn't too much trouble could i ask about the ideal cat diet? I adopted a cat a couple of weeks ago and have been feeding her the food she had at the shelter (Hill's Science) and that's even what the vet recommended, but the more i read the more it seems the wrong food to use?? do you have any advice on cat food brands and the dry vs wet food ratio? thanks!

It’s no trouble at all!

In your position, I’d be really inclined to talk to your vet about this–maybe bring some of the negative reviews with you and ask about alternatives? For what it’s worth, at our shelter we use Royal Canin 100% dry (with wet food supplements for badly undernourished cats to help them gain weight) and haven’t run into any problems with our long-term resident cats that we know about, but I also see some really negative reviews for that brand. Any brand that has a low grain content is ideal–the cats I had growing up (who lived to 17 and 18) both wound up having chronic health problems because of the cheap food we fed them without knowing any better, so it’s something to be aware of. 

If your vet feels strongly that it’s a good choice, and you haven’t noticed any adverse effects, it’s probably a good food for your kitty! But don’t hesitate to bring up your concerns the next time you see your vet. <3

EDIT: This is very important and pertinent information!

I AM DOWN

That was fast! Thanks, guys!

I’ll email you. I think I’ll hit up thirstforfirth (it’s tangentially related to your prompt) but maybe I’ll get pushthequorumbutton‘s input after that. At this rate, this thing’ll actually be readable!
