Hello! The name is Carthix ♤

"it would be so good if it was good" will haunt you but "it's extremely good, except for the one or two parts which are so bad it's genuinely kind of insulting" will straight up drive you insane

Why is it that every time I google something like "Are olives poisonous to cats" the top results are always like "Fun fact: Cats are carnivores! This means that they eat meat. There is no reason to include olives in a cat's diet. You should feed your cat cat food, which is dry or wet food especially designed for cats. You can purchase this at a store." like is there a single person alive on the planet who's googled "Are blueberry muffins safe for cats" because they're planning on switching their cat to a muffin-only diet??? No, I'm asking because the little bastard somehow popped open the packet while I was putting away the groceries and dragged one under the couch before I could react and now I need to know if I should call the after-hours vet. "Cats should not eat spaghetti." NO SHIT, SHERLOCK!!!! "Try to keep human food away from cats." i live in a studio apartment with a completely silent and permanently hungry apex predator who has the intelligence of a toddler and the desperate Machiavellian cunning of a creature who spent his formative months on the streets. He can already open doors and he is this 👌 close to learning how to open the microwave. He is stronger than me and covered in knives. So im gonna do my best but for the moment i just need you to tell me whether this yoghurt is going to kill my son y/n

For plants specifically, there’s also a wildly detailed set of posts and listings about toxicity on the old, wonderful, Plants Are the Strangest People blog

99% of queer discourse stops right before they define the true difference between bisexual and pansexual!

@gentrychild

he may have promised a bit more than he could deliver with the eternity thing, but dear god he tried

And he didn't even need a perpetually renewed underclass of horrifingly brainwashed and oppressed workers to do it.

The waterways are robust enough that after the bug equivalent of centuries with no maintenance and actively being infected by flukes it never even bothered the adjacent ecosystems, unlike other sewer systems I can think of

The trash disposal of the respective capitals (& who guards them) really tells you everything you need to know about the difference between those two

one day grace hurts his right hand somehow and he's all upset bc he's like gosh dang it now i have to do everything left-handed. and rocky's like ?????still have other hand?? and grace explains the idea of dominant hands and rocky is like. you only have two hands. the FUCK do you mean only one of them can do anything

women are like diamonds: synthetically-produced women are not meaningfully different from naturally-formed women, and anyone trying to tell you otherwise is probably trying to justify keeping their women mines open

Women are like diamonds since they are composed primarily of carbon.

a lesser-acknowledged piece of advice about learning a new skill: you are allowed to enjoy sucking during the "sucking at it" phase. if you're a new writer or dancer or person in general, there is invariably a period where your work just isn't very good. it's frustrating because you have good taste and can recognize other good work, but you can't produce it yet. it can be hard to slog through this if you're only thinking about how bad your work is, BUT it can be fun if you turn this into a bit. deliberately write the worst poem you can. feels great. still learned something. sucking at things feels bad if you try to cover it up, but when you own it, it hurts far less to be witnessed.
