Cringe Hyperfixator

The little kitten insists upon grooming me when I pet him. He’s like oh you groom me do not worry I groom you too. Big sandpaper tongue on your arm.

Yes baby that tiny amount of licking you’re doing on my thumb is making a world of difference thank you

He also does this to the teenage cat who you can tell is also humoring him like yes thank you you licked two square inches of my fur in the wrong direction little brother wonderful

And then he immediately fixes his fur the second the little one walks away lol

Not to increase anxiety, but I found this buried on Reddit. From six months ago. very good thing to have in your pocket so you are prepared

all lunch breaks should be paid im serious. im not even enjoying this im literally just making sure i dont pass out or something. this is part of The Job as far as im concerned

WHY AREN’T YOUR LUNCH BREAKS PAID JESUS CHRIST AMERICA YOU CAN’T KEEP SPRINGING THIS INSANE SHIT ON US.

How does it feel to ask for a drink and instead you get a whole artistic experience.

Do people ever think that it’s actually not very progressive to tell a trans man who’s all his life heard “your voice doesn’t matter here” because of misogyny to “sit down and shut up” because he’s a man now and so he’s privileged?

If you're having a bad day, just remember that it's going to be winter soon and imagine what will happen to all the Cybertrucks ❤️

Salt-rusted unprotected steel panels... Meltwater getting into poorly constructed and poorly isolated electronics... Stuck in snowdrifts that a real truck would have been able to deal with... Oh, those are indeed happy images. Yes indeed...

It's winter in the US is anything happening to all the cybertrucks

No snow here yet. Lots of Cybertrucks in my area, so I’ll keep an eye out.

Keep us updated I am so curious to see how they handle Normal Weather

There should be Cybertruck Winter, like Fat Bear Week. Where we see which cybertrucks fall first and which ones make it to the end in usable condition.

Dispatch from the far northern hemisphere and have witnessed a Cybertruck in the winter wilds.

We're early enough into the snow season in that the damage isn't obvious. My guess is that exposure to road salts are really going to destroy these ambulatory dumpsters, but we won't start to see that until spring. Road salt is difficult to impossible to get off in a regular car wash, and we know that Cybertruck can't handle even that.

On the one I saw, any metallic shine that the Cybertruck had was completely lost in a combination of cold winter temps, light street grunge, and lower ambient sunlight. It was the same color as my friend's early 2000s silver pickup truck. One of the big draws, imo, is that stainless steel panelling and to see it turn into the same shade of grey as one of the most popular truck colors twenty years ago would be disappointing to me. It's not special anymore.

Local Cybertruck enthusiasts who are salty dogs at winter driving have started vinyl wrapping their automotive basket cases. The trend seems to be to go from the door windows down, which gives them a beach cooler vibe that is similarly underwhelming.

They’re already having issues! The head lights are sunken in for some reason. This means there is a shelf to hold snow in front of the lights and block them.

Now, every car has to have the snow cleared off the headlights before you drive, but this is way worse. That shelf collects snow as you drive. People have to pull over and clear the snow off mid-drive because they lose their headlights.

WHY ARE THEY BUILT THAT WAY

just saw a fanfic on ao3 have a dedication for chatgpt... that section is meant for your horny perverted mutual who proofread your work, you violated sacred law and you will be torn apart and laid bare btw

greatest to ever do it

kittenheavenpov on tiktok

kitty sounds!!!!

😭😭😭 mama calling them all in and then going to find the one that fell behind and then another baby panicking and screaming because she can't see mommy and mama calling her and the baby rushing over with obvious enormous relief oh god I am CRYING

I want an entire streaming service of nothing but this!

remember when u were like 11 and the only thing u wanted was a lava lamp

Yeah, I’d have killed a man for this bedroom as a kid

tf you mean “as a kid” if you dont want it now, hand it over

Banging on the walls chanting "OPEN ENROLLMENT FOR ACA THRU JAN 15" like some deranged town crier. Election results aside, you have options to access healthcare as a RIGHT through the ACA. NO one can dismantle the Affordable Care Act in less than 4 years, so SIGN UP! GET YOUR CARE! USE THE SYSTEM!

You have options RIGHT NOW that will be stable thru the next year, the one after that, and I'd be shocked to see them shrink even the year after that. That means RIGHT NOW you can get signed up for next year to gain 100% covered preventative care (your annual check ups, pap smears, dental cleaning, vision check). You have the option to get checked and screened as you need, do NOT be dissuaded from exploring ACA choices. They are SOLID, LEGISLATED, and WORK BEST WHEN PEOPLE USE THEM.

I can't change most things around me, BUT I CAN tell everyone I know that THEY CAN GET LIFE SAVING CARE. THEY CAN GET PRESCRIPTIONS. THEY CAN GET PREGNANCY CARE. THEY CAN GET CANCER CARE. AND THEY WILL GET THAT CARE!!!!!!

SIGN UP BY DECEMBER 15, 2024 FOR COVERAGE TO BEGIN ON JANUARY 1, 2025. ENROLLMENT AFTER 12/15/24 WILL HAVE COVERAGE BEGINNING FEBRUARY 1, 2025.

My fellow Americans

Take advantage of what our civil servants have built for you and spread the word.

do not forget about reservations.

do not forget about the people on reservations.

when you are making and reading posts about dire predictions for quality of life, do not forget about reservations.

we already have issues accessing clean water. we already experience devastation from climate change. we are already going missing for our race. we are already being murdered for our culture.

it will only get worse.

it’s possible to live through. every single person indigenous to north america has a chance to live through this. i’m not trying to fear monger; i’m trying to remind you.

please do not forget about us when you assure people that “everything will be okay; people are living under far worse circumstances in other countries”.

people are living under far worse circumstances here. and it can get worse. and it will get worse. and we need you to remember that we’re here when it happens.

A very useful thread on Bluesky:

(There is a lot more. Rather than give you all the images, I've copied the full text below.)

The divisiveness between trans people is so fucking manufactured, stop falling for it.

Fuck it. Tags.

Extremely concerning how people have boiled down our community to "whose side are you on?" I'm on everyone's side here. There's one side. Get on it. Take my hand, direct your anger where it belongs; together we can make a better world. Trans people with experiences that differ from yours are your siblings in arms, not your enemy.

"Sorry I have a boyfriend" is of course a time-tested and reasonably reliable no-fault rejection strategy. But what many tacticians may not realize is it has an even more powerful counterpart, the preemptive boyfriend name-drop. This is when a conversation with a stranger veers into high-alert territory and you make up a guy named Raphael (my boyfriend) who you mention due to his extremely-relevant interest in the current topic of conversation.

Raphael is a powerful tactical piece here due to his simultaneous love or hatred of every single topic ever, due to he's not real.

Y'know what? Raph would approve of getting used as the 'boyfriend' to ward off unwanted attention. He'd get a kick out of it, like those people offering to be 'the obnoxious partner' for the holidays. And if it escalated to having to call him, he'd play along.
