Cat Violence Moodboard

not to be crude but the people who think Laios is one of those fandom characters that doesnt know what sex is are completely missing like. his whole deal. you think the dude who obsessively studies monster anatomy and behaviors doesn't know what sex is? you think he hasn't memorized the mating rituals of every single goddamn beast under the sun? you think he doesn't have an encyclopedic knowledge on how to fuck? thats his goddamn special interest brother. he knows sex better than anyone on the goddamn planet.

my mental image anytime i see someone leave this comment

the tumblr experience is that you're flirting with a local trans girl for a week or two and are just about to schedule a date except then her blog gets nuked before you can add each other on discord and then the broken tumblr search makes it impossible to find her new blog

anyway uhh mae if you see this hiiiiiii 👉👈 i still really wanna go to the reptile zoo with youuuu

Any space lore?

Well ive been thinking about Kess a lot; i think i want it to be a sort of portaling event in the larger Zeros-Wbing Canon;- lemme grab the neocities link rq

(ive also posted this article verbatim on this blog!)

I think i want the "Star People" to be a sort of missing link between timelines that the Wasteland/New Millennium connects. With that in find; Kess is (in the more fantastical "deep lore") the "10th house of the Sun" (Horus) aka "Midnight". Playing on the vibes of Sakaar in the Thor Ragnarok movie, basically; but tying this to the stuff ive written about Egyptian Gods into my lores :3

For sci fi flavor; [Re] is the "Meta-Chorus" Element (it can be used to create Strand-to-Chorus interfaces; for Destiny Headcanoners (Alkahest!)) {Conlangers Note: [Re] is Sol-Rel-Sol reference} -[GRIMOIRE]

Building on this; Kess is a "Gateway"; thus, he can be Seth, in my old homestuck lore Seth is a "Seer of Doom". The Land of Black and White; and thus, a counterpart to Janus! -Maggie the Archivist

The Spurned are the Spirits left behind by those caught in Horus' fevor; this is the wisdom of the Throne; and thus is as useful as it is dangerous. -M0therV0X

Traders beware when sailing the Mother River; for in the thousand years hence the New Millennium began, it has shifted course greatly. Cairo is buried and forgotten; born anew time again. Perhaps i will have a map to show soon... -Guin

Sadly this is true, while gays are (slowly) being accepted by society, atheists are still demonized and shunned.

Alternatives to Squishmallow

So as many of you have probably already heard, Jazwares, the company that produces Squishmallows, is donating to charities that support Israeli soldiers and the IDF. They’re also supporting Canary Mission, which has been doxxing people who speak out against Israel. BDS hasn’t called for a boycott against them, but I can’t in good faith spend my money on their products, and I would strongly encourage everyone who enjoys plushies to really think long and hard about if you want to give your money to a company that’s helping support genocide!

But the holidays are coming up, and lots of us enjoy plushies and were fans of Squishmallow, and were planning to give Squishmallows to friends and family this year.

Fortunately, there are a number of great plushie companies out there, and I want to promote some of my favorites in the hopes that folks will get their plushie fix from a source that doesn’t side with Israel. So without further ado:

Fluffnest

Fluffnest got their start on Kickstarter a few years ago, and I adore the round shapes of their PuffPal plushies! My favorite is Pete the Possum, which is probably the best possum plush I’ve ever seen. I’ve also got a beautiful moth from their Kickstarter and I’ve been wanting their bats for ages. They also recently had a Kickstarter for an Animal Crossing-esque video game featuring their plushie characters and it looks fantastic.

Squishables

I can’t get over the plague doctor plushies. They’re so perfect and cute, and they’ve released other variations of them called Alter Egos, like a ghostly version, an alien, or a really sweet cottagecore one! They’ve got a ton of variety, but what I like the most are the fantasy plushies. There’s a lich! There are dragons and demons! Cryptids! Biblically accurate angels! A lot of really fun stuff!

Also they do a lot of great charity work! Right now they’re doing an auction for the Food Bank of New York City.

AfternoonFika

AfternoonFika is a very small business of only three people, but their plushies are extremely cute. They tend to sell out fast, so I recommend following them on social media to stay on top of any restocks! They recently released a line of dinosaurs that are precious, and of course I love their iconic cactus cat and cinnamon bun bunny.

Jellycat

Jellycat has been around since 1999, so they’re the oldest of these companies. They’ve got great designs, a ton of variety, and a lot of their plushies are made to be cuddled on and not just displayed. All three of my tiny nephews sleep with a different stuffed dog from Jellycat. My mom has a sun and several succulents that she uses as decorations. There’s a little something for everyone who enjoys plushies!

If you have any other favorite companies I haven’t mentioned, feel free to add on! I’ve enjoyed Squishmallows for a while now and I’m sad to see their leadership coming out on the side that’s committing war crimes on a daily basis, but this is a good time to discover new favorite plushie companies! And remember, money speaks loudly. Even if BDS hasn’t called for a boycott of Jazwares, it sends a message when sales start dropping for companies that support genocide. It’s a small thing, but the little things we do can add up!
