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

Hard to know where to start with this really!

doing my degree in folklore and ppl will ask "oh, what is your thesis about" and i'm like "i'm about to tell you a bunch of stuff but first and foremost i'm not going to call any of it folklore because that's an extremely loaded term and depending on the context, culture, and people, it can be considered dismissive at best or even outrageously derogatory." and they're like "but the degree is called Folklore. When is it folklore?" and I just have to be like well that shit depends.

i think i could phrase this better. "i'm not gonna call it folklore bc some people don't like that word" makes it sound like the nuance ends at the word itself and that i avoid the use as a simple platitude when in fact it is much deeper than that. but i suppose i don't have the ability to articulate it at 10:36 pm on a Monday. surprising.

i had a twisted dream this morning when my alarm tried to wake me up where jeff goldblum said 'Actually if you sleep a bit Longer you'll have More time to get ready It's called the Goldblum's Law and it works just go back to sleep' and i believed him and i overslept

hey boss sorry im late. i got Goldblumed

Literally any other colour would’ve been a better choice guys.

I think y’all are missing the point here.

You can theorize to Nebraska and back but that doesn’t change my immediate reaction which is that someone is literally dragging a corpse around
