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
I absolutely hate it when people call sex a need. “I have needs” or “he has specific needs”—no, you have wants. Sex is a desire, not a need; otherwise nuns and monks would’ve died from practicing celibacy. And 99% of the time that I see sex being called a need, it’s to justify cheating.
So can we please stop disillusioning ourselves and stop calling sex a need
It’s also used to justify coercing long term partners into having sex they don’t want because they frame it as a need that partners are required to provide
If you don’t want to have sex, don’t fall for this shit. They have a hand, they can buy toys, hell they could even ask for an open relationship.
At no point or in any capacity is another person entitled to your body
AT NO POINT OR IN ANY CAPACITY IS ANOTHER PERSON ENTITLED TO YOUR BODY
Thank you this is exactly how this should be reframed whenever this argument comes up in conversation or discussion
lmao on the edinburgh zoo site it says “there is a daily penguin parade at 14:15 but it may be cancelled last minute as it is a voulntary parade, we do not coax the penguins with food, and they may not want to go out” lmao anarchopenguinism
this is the cutest goddamn thing i’ve ever heard
I saw the penguin parade. It was a very slow parade, because the
pingüinos take their sweet time and aren’t very fast walkers to begin with.
can I volunteer to be a penguin
I feel like the world needs to know the context of the edinburgh zoo penguin parade, becausr I’ve been going there my entire life and I only found out about this the other year.
So a while back (I can’t remember exactly when but I think it was some time around the 40s/50s), a bunch of penguins escaped. A keeper left the gate open so a bunch of penguins just… followed them. And the people loved it. Look at these adorable birds outside their cage just following that guy around! So they get all the penguins back inside and realise that none of them really ran off, they just followed the keeper and went back inside and crowd thought it was amazing, so why not make it a regular thing? Get enough people there that if one of them goes to make a run for it (which at least one has in the past), they can’t get past the people, and let the ones who want outside have a little wander. So every day, they get a crowd, they open the gate, and whatever penguins want to get out can go, waddle about, squawk at people, and then hop back inside.
Also, one of those penguins is Brigadier Sir Nils Olaf III, Colonel-in-cheif of the Norwegian King’s Guard. This isn’t really related to the parade at all, I just love the fact that there’s a penguin in the Norwegian army

Ok so I’ve covered why you should not actually clone your pet. But to be honest, I’m not sure how many of you were actually considering dropping 50 G’s for the procedure. Still, maybe you want some sort of memory of a pet who passed away. So let me tell you about CUDDLE CLONES
Basically it’s this company that will make a PLUSH replica of your pet. A cat, dog or horse is $249, and smaller animals like rabbits and guinea pigs are $179.
In addition to being much cheaper than actual cloning, it doesn’t require any invasive surgery on innocent surrogate ovum donors and mom dogs! Note that this isn’t the only company that does something like plush replicas, for example Feltpets will make your animal out of felt.
But OK Cuddle Clones look particularly quality to me, look at how close they look to the original
they also do figurines
Furthermore, they’ll do any animal you like
cat? dog? horse? gerbil? donkey? it don’t matter to cuddle clones, they will MAKE YOU THAT PLUSH
Also, they donate money to animal-related charities Did I mention they will do any animal? it doesn’t even have to be real. it can be the fursona you made when you were 14 for deviantart
hell, they’ll make your How to Train Your Dragon OC if you want it
Cuddle Clones is there for you, and i need one of my blob monster please

That might actually be really helpful for some people.
I have checked the site to see what other animals they have done, and they have made many birds, fish, and turtles before! In case anybody had any worries on what animals they’ll do.
The difference is appropriation vs appreciation. Appropriating is
mocking/using a culture. Cultural appreciation is celebrating alongside a
culture. Celebration is encouraged.
I have a family friend who worked at our local Salvation Army headquarters as a a secretary. This particular office took all the Christmas donations for children in need, put them in a warehouse, and on a designated day the staff and their friends picked through them all, taking whatever they wanted. She saw people hauling away bikes donated for specific families. Some local children had hundreds of dollars of gifts donated in their name, and on Christmas they received three cheap things, items likely not even from the person who sponsored them.
My friend quit, and I’ve not given them a dime of my money since then.
Here is the art I contributed to the Illumicrate Starfall edition box for ACOFAS !! This one took me more than 50 hours to do but I think I like how it turned out :)) Hopefully Sarah will give me permission to make prints of other ACOTAR art!
