Hi! I’m Ishmael, but you can also call me Ish! I guess you could also call me Wade if you wanted to, I don’t really care
• 23 • any pronouns besides it/its • college student •
If you know me irl and you somehow found this blog, no you didn’t! Love you, leave me alone 🥰
This is sort of a catch-all blog for my multifandom environmental studies major ADHD/autism brain soup, so you’re gonna see a lot of animals, plants, warrior cats, The Dear Hunter, Sky: Children Of The Light, art, petsite games, and anything shiny that crosses my dash.
(I have a blanket Ask To Tag policy on anything that passes through here. If you’d like for me to tag something specific, let me know!)
Common tags and sideblogs under the cut
Tags I Use A Lot:
# ish speaks : my own posts!
# ishmael’s art : any art that is my own. art that isn’t mine goes under # notmyart
# this goes so hard : catch-all for things I like a lot or find really interesting
# [animal]posting : categorization I use for reblogs about animals! I try to have a general tag (#birdposting) along with more specific ones (#owlposting). I typically don’t narrow down to breed or species unless I’m talking about them in another tag. I also use this system for plants, but I tend to be more vague.
I do not content/trigger tag for animals unless asked. This includes insects, bugs, and arachnids.
I WILL NOT reblog excessive violence, animal abuse, or gore— I may reblog content that contains natural animal injury, blood, death, or predation (I tag these!)
The vast majority of my posts are queued, but I don’t tag for it. I have it set for all hours, I’m just hyperaware of being perceived lmao

**I don’t have a DNI because I think they’re really easy for people to weaponize. If I don’t like you or the shit that you’re doing I’ll just block you**
Really cool graphic broadly explaining how we've selectively bred dogs over millenia for different jobs. Drives like herding and guarding prey animals may seem counterintuitive to the dogs' nature but these actions are in fact rooted in ancestral hunting instincts, we've just "muted" down the rest of the hunt sequence resulting in a kill (but even well bred dogs need training!). This is also why crossing dogs belonging to different job types should be carefully thought out, if your breeding goals are a calm nonworking companion animal the last thing you want is to breed is a royal flush of this predatory sequence.
[ID: A near distant cluster of street lamps of various styles and heights, all glowing dimly upon a fresh blanket of snow. They form a gentle circle of golden light within an otherwise gray setting, with even the sky dark and gray and the nearby trees missing their leaves. A single person stands in the center, gazing up at the lights with their hands in their coat pockets, and their path through the snow is the only set of footprints around. End ID.]
STOP the fucking song and back it up to the start we didn't think about the right thing at the right time our head music video is all messed up what the fuck guys come on
[ID: picture of a black cat sitting in the corner, and pressing it's face against the walls, which are completely covered in long math problems and complex diagrams. The caption reads: "I have. i have the normal amount of thoughts." End ID.]
