this post feels like it’s lost some of its original context because I remember reblogging it in 2012 when I didn’t have a smart phone and smart phone ownership was much lower in general. So being on tumblr on Christmas meant being physically at a computer and being visibly unsocial if not completely removed from any festivities. Now everyone’s on social media every day of the year. A true heritage post really

shout out to people who's family isnt entirely bad or entirely good, but something in between and you dont know how to feel about them. you feel angry but you also feel guilty, because you know they genuinely love and care about you, but sometimes they show it in a way you know its not okay. your feelings are valid, your anger and sadness and grief are valid, and you dont have to prove this to no one. bigger shout out to those with memory issues who know something isnt right but can't recall all of the bad events, only the feelings, which only increases the guilt.

She has ghosty tabby markings on her body as well from what i can see, she looks like maybe a fawn or lilac mackerel sepia or mink point? i'm not fully sure, though. She also could have tinted white spotting that covers up her markings on that front half, and just especially low contrast markings? when you shaved her, was her fur dark as it was growing in? usually when colourpoints are shaved, their fur is as dark as it can be with their palette and takes a long time to lighten back up.

this is just my two cents on it from the studies i've done, i'm not a genetics expert unfortunately /lh <3

made these studying cat genetics over the past 2 weeks!

i felt like there weren't enough visual guides of cat genetics so i went ahead and made some simple ones, my main references were Sparrow's Garden the website, Sparrow's Garden the blog, Messybeast, and The Little Carnivore.

It’s uncanny how similar Trump is acting like Hitler. People are now doing the Nazi salute. They’re drawing the symbol. The KKK was seen in Kentucky asking people to join them. ICE has been ripping families apart. Companies have pulled back Diversity Initiatives. We’re no longer part of WHO and there won’t be any communication from the CDC at least until February 1st. We’re being censored and the news can’t be trusted. Thousands of Americans didn’t know there were protests against Trump yesterday outside the U.S. Quotes from The Handmaid’s Tale and Anne Frank have been compared to what’s going on right now.

According to The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Studies and Prevention the U.S. has officially been given a red flag alert for Genocide.

I’m exhausted but I will never stop being angry.

HI. I'VE COME BEARING NEWS.

I am trying to get into a better place that is MUCH cheaper than my current shitty AirBNB. The rent will be 650$ a month, versus my current 1068$. Giant chunk. Huge win.

HOWEVER.

I'd be moving on May 1st (if I succeed this stressful ass background check) and I don't get paid until that very same day, and they want me to be able to pay before (obviously, valid).

Total cost for move in fee, deposit, and rent is 1,275$. Just for the first month.

I do have some friends helping reduce that price a good chunk, all the way down to 700$. I don't exactly have that either— which is why I'm here making this post.

PLEASE HELP ME GET A BETTER LIVING SITUATION THAN I HAVE NOW. I need 700$ before the 1st of May. That's not a lot of time and I'm doing my best to not freak out.

I'm getting a lot of help where I can, but I just need a touch more. If you can, donate! If you can't, please share! I WANT A BETTER LIVING SITUATION!!! Please 🥺

Something like this would be so colossally helpful. I'm sick and tired of trying to research specific clothing from any given culture and being met with either racist stereotypical costumes worn by yt people or ai generated garbage nonsense, and trying to be hyper specific with searches yields fuck all. Like I generally just cannot trust the legitimacy of most search results at this point. It's extremely frustrating. If there are good resources for this then they're buried deep under all the other bullshit, and idk where to start looking.
