(yes, there is currently a very loud truck idling a house down from mine, why do you ask)

plus! the general comfort of living in a burrow like my (dinosaur) ancestors intended

and, as a bonus, i wouldn't spend storms shaking in my boots, because id be underground where my brain belives im safe (my brain is also convinced *every* storm will spawn a tornado right on top of me despite all the evidence otherwise)

i swear i understand what words mean 🤦

it's just that it's 6am and i am barely awake (never mind that i do this every time i see that type of content)

also me: never skritches rbs butt because he hates it. picks up rb very slowly so he can "escape" two steps away. holds out my hand so ghostie can slowly walk back and forth under it like a skritches car wash. stops petting prof, sees his tail thrash in annoyance, immediately resumes petting prof.

😂 oh my goodness, this was my second thought hearing about the concept of tentacle dicks! (my first was wondering if they were talking about octopus hectocotylus)

(i am very ace and autistic 😅)

SO dense!! even the vets comment on her density when she visits them!

admittedly, she'd hide in the upstairs closet if he actually Dared enter the house, but she *is* only eight (8) pounds and she would warn me first

You're allowed to feel your feelings, but also remember that *voting is still happening* in many parts of the country, and a narrative that all hope is lost already could have serious negative impacts by making people think it's not worth staying in line.

oofda, that's my worst fear! reading is so critical for my mental health especially on bad pain days when i need a distraction

do audiobooks work for you so you can still enjoy reading? (or ebooks!? on my kobo, at least, you can make the font giant)

that's the thing i miss the most about being able to read paper books 😭

i do still pull out books i got before my joints got this bad and sniff them, but it's not the same!!!

this is why i love my ereader so much! reading on screens too long just leads to a migraine, but my joints are too weak and fucky to survive if i read paper books as often+long as i read

i just have to make sure to not turn on the back light, otherwise. migraine.

i told him

sonk

find a tolerant cat and scream into their belleh. it will immediately cure your stress headache

minor warning: if you accidentally choose a non-tolerant cat side effects will include daggers in your face

(im so sorry for the stress headache! at least the election itself is almost over!)
