#tw hoarding

Animal hoarding IS NOT: getting a new animal soon after one dies (if you have a proper setup ready and solved [if solvable] the cause of death of the previous animal) or having a lot of animals that are healthy and have enough space.

Animal hoarding IS: having a lot of animals to the point that their care suffers because of it.

Having 100 chickens with ample food, health care, and space, is not hoarding.

Having 20 chickens in undersized housing to the point that they are sick is hoarding. Or maybe 15 chickens is the amount someone has the funds to take care of, but the person has 20 chickens and they suffer because of this. That is animal hoarding.

Techno jokingly reaching for one of Dream's apples while they're chilling together and Dream slapping his hand and becoming super defensive without even realizing. He's just short of growling at Techno, and just a second ago they were joking together

Him trying to act normal afterwards he's a little hunched over his things. A minute later he slides it all back into his inventory, saying that the mess was bothering him

When Punz and Dream are together then Dream will never leave anything of his on view, even while he cooks he angles himself to hide whatever he doing from Punz. He's not even doing it on purpose

Him guarding his territory. Punz rarely enters the prison because Dream always insists they have meetings elsewhere and always has an excuse of why they don't need to go in the prison rn

Having bunker after bunker filled with every type of item and backups for all those bunkers on top of that.

I don't feel a negative, disordered connotation towards my hoarding, but it is definitely not enordered (aka: a function that benefits the individual).

I like to hoard the stickers on fizzy drink bottles...Or "soda"s, but have been scolded about taking them off the drink bottles. So now I'm piling up drink bottles on my floor since they feel too special to get rid of.

I don't THINK I have some connection with trash, but the other day my trash - thankfully not my drink bottles - disappeared (my mum took them) out of my room which gave me a small feeling of panic.

Whatever it is doesn't feel nice on me. Can't say it's majorly bad either though.

There are DEFINITELY positive ways to hoard, and I even feel happy about the things I've gathered over time. It's just that maybe a less ambiguous word should be used...

tommorow me and my foster mom are going to throw away some of the stuff I've hoarded collected

I'm so not ready but it has to be done

I barely have any space in my room left, every possible nook and storage place is filled with some random shit
