fun fact: the biblical avshalom was a good-looking rear end in a top hat who ended up stoned to death by his brother (just like me!). there's a place in israel called avshalom's tomb that was obviously believed to be his grave. for thousands of years it's been customary for visiting jews, muslims and christians alike to throw rocks at the tomb. however, they recently did testing on the site and found that whoever is buried there, they were buried several hundred years after avshalom would have died. so all this time, some poor random dead person has had their grave pelted with rocks every day by three different religions due to a case of mistaken identity, while the real avshalom has presumably been allowed to rest in peace, wherever he is

It's from a few pages back, but I'm quoting this because this cat is adorable. Gray cats with champagne markings own forever.

She didn't have any as a tiny kitten


Then as she grew up she kept developing cool colors.

She has always had one white leg, which is how we told her apart from her other littermates and knew she was the one we were taking home.

Bonus picture of leg:

when vanya was a puppy, his ears were fawn-coloured and translucent so when the sunlight hit them they glowed bright yellow. sadly they darkened as he got older, but they're still very handsome brown ears

My boyfriend's allergic, but he's actually okay with our cats. It just took him a while to get used to them when we first brought them home.

He'd be completely fine if he could resist the urge to rub his face in their bellies, but there's Benadryl for that :3:

When Ivan was a kitten, he was dark brown with very faint but distinct tiger stripes. He's entirely black now, though you can still see a little brown when he's in the sun

The original VO also did double time as a few guards and misc voices and, in the extra levels in Thief Gold, both an opera singer and a guard who mockingly sung songs in the opera. That opera level owned.

We're your boyfriend now, Corn Thongs.

Kitten update: has returned to her spot in the tree. Face is angled adorably to use side of tree bucket as pillow. This cat has weird/awesome habit of sleeping propped up on something so it looks like she's sitting. She also likes to sleep under the part of your blanket that is pooled on the floor, and it is pretty impressive that we have so far not stepped on her and mushed her.

My cat used to be black and white and now all the colour you see is fat. He's so fat. His feral brothers and sisters got spayed recently and now they're all fat too. Like little balls of fat fur bounding round the garden and trying to bite me when I feed them, so cute.

I need to crowdsource opinions on haircolor. I am below. My face is an awesome green mug. In a few weeks when my hair needs to be re-dyed, I want to due most of it the regular copper color that it always is, but then do an ombre on the long top part down to blonde-ish. Would this be good or would this be too much stuff in such a small amount of hair?

In re: dadchat, you know the great thing about my crazydad? He's always been super into history and when I was little, he'd read me and my sister history books while we sat on his lap. Now I'm getting my PhD in history. I sent him a card a few Christmases ago that said "This is for my first history teacher" and he was so pleased, he'd just tell anyone who listened about that for weeks.

dad crazy. so what.

Like I said, he's crazy but he's trying hard to be a good person. Unlike my dumbass manbaby brother in law, who's (maybe??) mentally normal but has horrible opinions, is a massive sexist, and once locked himself sobbing into the bathroom when he and my mom had an argument about routers.

My dad hates him. You know that joke where the punchline is "I may be crazy but I'm not stupid"? Well my dad may be crazy but he's not a weird manbaby with the worst opinions in the world. Like, you know you've gone wrong with your life decisions when the dude who thinks he's Christ every time he has a psychotic break disapproves of the way you treat his daughter.

Everyone is miserable, alone, and unable to drive because of DUIs. A few guys try to stop drinking, fail terribly. At the end, some dude took a bunch of benzos and got wasted and posted a picture of himself slicing up his arm.

Good lord, I need to read that thread to the end then. Did it get gassed or something? After a while I didn't see it any more.

the first sentence of this is accurate to my current mindset

I dragged myself to the grocery store and here is my recipe for Healthy Ramen Noodles:
1. buy packet of instant ramen, why not, it's 3 for a dollar
2. bemoan your existence
3. microwave mug of water
4. crunch up noodles so they fit in the mug
5. pour in half the packet of powder - the whole packet is way too much sodium come on
6. why are you pretending that this is healthy
7. pour in noodles, let them get soggy
8. eat/drink
9. consider the aching mess that is your body and weep
