“I got very confused at what I was seeing. I just have never seen any other animal like it.”

These are still from recent footage taken of Seattle’s newest celebrity. The footage was taken on Monday, July 13th, 2026, and has gone viral over the week following it. Kiana Hall captured the footage in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle around 8:30 when she said she had seen something strange.

Jimothy got his name because he “looks like a Jimothy”. He appears to suffer from Short Spine Syndrome, an incredibly rare congenital condition. This malformation of Jimothy’s spine could cause him to have a lot of difficulty in escaping predators, climbing trees, breeding, and foraging for food. Washington State University’s Veterinary Teaching Hospital associate professor Dr. Marcie Logsdon had a more hopeful outlook, saying that Jimothy appeared to be getting along just fine since he looked like he was moving and finding food.

High Chaplain Falk decided to give you a fun punishment this time. Twelve consecutive times.

(This is ooc shit because he's so repressed you need 2 business months at minimum to get him to crack, and he'll look like he wants to murder you the entire time. I'll do a dick version later.)

For example you're waiting for the bus, and there's one bench that's wide enough for 2-3 people to sit on at the bus stop. Why sit directly in the middle and leave bags sitting on either side of you, or sit off to one side with your legs propped up taking up the entire bench, when you could just as easily sit off to the side and leave room for others to sit too?

Say you're sitting in a classroom with isles just wide enough for one person to walk down. Why leave your bag (or other possessions) sitting in the middle of the isle, making it harder for other students to pass your desk, or creating a tripping hazard, when you could tuck it under your desk where it won't be creating a tripping hazard for anyone?

Or maybe you live in an apartment building that has a shared hallway instead of private entrances, and you have a bike that you don't feel like storing all the way down in building's bike storage room. Why leave your bike laying in the middle of the hallway, forcing your neighbors to have to maneuver or trip over it when coming and going, when you could try to find a better place to store your bike that isn't obstructing the shared hallway?

Not only can not being mindful of how much space we're taking up be dangerous, such as creating tripping hazards. But it just makes sharing spaces, whether private or public, easier with others when we leave space for others too. Nobody is more entitled to space than someone else. You don't own the sidewalk, or the bench at the bus stop, or the shared hallways in your apartment building anymore than anyone else does, and everyone else deserves the same access to it.

Bingo bango, keeping shared spaces decluttered instead of taking up more space than you need is important for keeping shared / public spaces accessible.

Speaking from my own personal experience, I grew up being hyper-aware and self conscious about how much space I take up and where and from who. I was constantly trying to make myself smaller and keep out of the way within my mobility scooter and then my power wheelchair. I had it drilled into me by every adult around me that I was a fire hazard if I didn't make sure I was out of the way enough, which is doubly stressful to be told when you live in a state known for its wildfires.

When I first learned about Judith Heumann in highschool, and how she legally fought (and won!) to be a teacher after being denied on the basis of being a power wheelchair user and thus a fire hazard, when I read the arguments against that idea? It was earth shattering. It was completely novel and radical to me. And from that point on I started to really notice how I am often not taking up an unreasonable amount of space, I'm taking up exactly as much as I need to, and that me needing that space does not make me annoying or bad or in the way. I had just as much of a right to be there as anyone else. That realization was groundbreaking!

Same with when I approach the bench at a bus stop, and someone is sitting sideways with their feet up like they're on a sofa (for some reason this is a popular way to sit on the bench at bus stops among many Icelanders, not sure if this is as popular in other places). Half the time they give me a dirty look like I'm being rude or annoying for asking them to move their legs so I can sit too.
