RE: Real life happy
13 hours in. No one has died and/or cried yet. So this is good. She is safe at school and all is fine.

RE: Macha Awareness (And Unappreciation) thread
If some internet person changes and doesn’t do the problematic shit so well that I can’t tell they are the same person, then congrats, I’ll never know.

RE: A Constructive Arx Thread
I have so many positive feels about Norwood’s end. I’m really happy now it wasn’t RPed out, because I’m not sure it could have been done as gracefully as the action result came out.
Norwood was such a big part of my soul that even after I came to admit I didn’t have room to actively RP any more, I couldn’t let him go. I would sign on every few days to check on him.
Everyone who was involved gets

RE: Pets!
May I share my foster kittens with y’all here? Even if I can never find here because it doesn’t show up on Google Results. (I have it bookmarked finally.)

RE: Pets!
My foster fail Calypso is a HUGE cuddle bug. She loves to cuddle up with other cats.
My senior baby Kiva is not a cuddler, but she doesn’t mind Calypso much, and basically raised her.
So they’ve come to a compromise. Calypso is allowed to lay NEAR Kiva and Kiva will not complain. Calypso tests this sometimes to see how much cuddling she can get away with. Today it was being curled into Kiva’s tail with one Calypso aw on Kiva’s butt. It makes my heart melt.

RE: Ruiz Thread
Yeah - Until the very end they had me CONVINCED I was the bad person in the interactions. I fell over myself apologizing for hurting them and making them uncomfortable. It wasn’t until I found myself sobbing with my laptop on my lap at the top of a staircase that I finally realized - this wasn’t okay. It WASN’T ooc personal my female alt didn’t like their PC. It WASN’T my fault I didn’t want to RP some things. All of those were perfectly good boundaries and I was being emotionally manipulated by someone who knew exactly what to say and when to say it.
Now, do I think the person behind the screen is some kind of cartoon villain twirling their mustache, petting a white cat, and itching to press the destroy button? Nah. I think they found a way of behaving that typically results in them getting attention (often it doesn’t matter if it is positive or negative) and so they repeat the behavior because it fills a need.
If they are reading this, I hope they know that it is possible to get attention for doing the right things. This doesn’t have to be your entire internet legacy.

RE: Pets!
Tiny asshole kitten Benjamin Sisko was wrapped around my leg chewing and clawing.
I got tired of it, and now only 60 seconds later, he is asleep with his head supported by my palm.
My revenge will be letting one of the insane other six pounce him once they realize he zzzzed out.

RE: Pets!
I’m fairly sure the rescue I work with is one of the more unhinged ones. I swear they have added several new questions to the app, and every one has a story behind it.
We are considering a new one “Have you ever surrendered a cat due to medical needs?” Because we have a beautiful orange baby who was surrendered with half his face missing. He turned out to be FIV+, was not neutered, and we had to have his eye amputated on top of all the healing for the infection. Several thousand dollars went in and people donated specifically for his care. Now the owners who surrendered him are attempting to get him back.
I don’t think this question will make it, but this isn’t the first time a cat has come to us on death’s door, we’ve saved them, and then they try to get the cat back.

RE: Pets!
Part of my responsibilities at my shelter is to approve or deny adoptions for our cats. This could be after the initial application, or after their Google meets home visit.
I hhattteee having competing apps for cats, but over 50% of interviews fail so it is nice when at least one of them is good so they can still go home promptly. (Over 75% of the initial apps fail, seriously, it is crazy any make it. But with that said, in the 3 years I’ve been there we have only had 10 cats returned with ~100 cats going home each year. )
But the WORST is when they are both amazing and we have to choose. I hate having to tell someone “You are amazing and please come meet more cats and you can take them home that same day! But we have decided to go with another family for these particular cats.”

RE: MU Peeves Thread
I miss some of my characters like mad and get hit with random wants to play them.
Today I saw a clip from a show called Banshee that had the PERFECT look for Isi. I wish her story hadn’t been cut short in such a gross way.

RE: MU Peeves Thread
I’m afraid I also don’t read descs. I rely on systems that give me an overview, like +finger. I don’t know what “shorter than average” means to you, but I know what 5’3" means!

We don’t do transphobia or other aligned hate talk so… yes.

RE: Real life happy
I gave my child chocolate milk and showed her the joys of blowing bubbles in the milk.
Why did our parents tell us not to blow bubbles? It is awesome!

RE: Real Life Struggles/Support/Vent
Another school year (year 14) has passed. I’m feeling really meh about it. My position this year was half of two different teams, and that made it hard to really integrate anywhere. My relationships with kids were way more shallow then I would like.
Just leaving me flat.

RE: RL Peeves
I just realized that while I would love to participate in the Kellogg boycott - they also produce the foods my disordered eating child will eat when all else fails.
I feel like they bank on that fact. I’m not going to let my kiddo, who at one point in her life didn’t have access to food, not eat because she can’t stomach anything beyond her comfort food.

You don’t have a fever nor are you throwing up.
Sorry sweetheart, OFF TO SCHOOL.
