You know we only ever really "learn" how to bathe in our youth as it is taught to us by our parents and from then on most people kinda just bathe the same way right. And like barring actively deciding to do it the only way most people change their bathing habits is if they bathe with a loved one and get convinced to do somethi g different in the bath bc its cleaner/faster/whatever bc of them. Ok heres the thesis statement. The lack of communal bathing in society is holding us back from discovering The Ultimate Bathing

🤗 i dont like this emoji. this is not a hug to me. this is someone doing condescending jazz hands in my general direction when i am in need of affection. not comforting.

🫂 i love this emoji. this is a hug. we are hugging and its nice. and as a special bonus they appear to be my old friends from the msn messenger logo? very comforting.

DEEPLY fucking stressful experience at work today

Okay so most of our tanks in broodstock contain at least two fish, one male and one female clown (obviously, we’re a fish breeding facility) so I was Quite Alarmed when I noticed that one of the tanks only contained a single fish. The male was missing.

I start checking around on the floor, assuming he somehow jumped out. He’s not there. I look in adjacent tanks because maybe he somehow hopped into one of them. He’s not there. Finally my flashlight passed over the drain in the floor and I noticed movement.

Holy shit, he jumped out of the tank and went down the drain.

Now, this is not an ideal place for a fish to be. The drains are full of wastewater. It’s where we put the siphon hoses when we’re cleaning the tanks, and it’s only wide enough for a siphon hose. Definitely way too narrow to fit a net or a hand down there. Not to mention, it’s gross stagnant water and the fish could very easily suffocate.

I told my manager and he just looked at me and went “he’s dead.”

But, because we’re crazy fish people, we’re still not going to give up. My manager makes a net on a stick that’s small enough to fit down the drain. Spends a solid 10-15 minutes trying to catch him, but the fish eventually sinks into the murk and disappears from sight. We flushed clean water into the drain to add oxygen and hopefully revive him enough to swim back up, but there’s no sign of him. At this point we’re all thinking he’s probably dead.

But, crazy fish people that we are, we’re going to try one last thing. We get a Big Siphon. And we fucking slurp him out.

And lo and behold, the boy lives!!! And he’s still got enough zest to start flopping around on the floor!

Currently he is recovering in an isolation bucket and we’re monitoring him for any problems, but he honestly seems perfectly fine to me. He’s swimming around and even started begging for food when I checked on him.

But holy shit I’m still Stressed from this

i feel like an often overlooked downside to 10-episode seasons and the death of the "monster of the week" format is that we get way less whump variety nowadays. used to be that there'd be dozens of opportunities for your fave to get punched or kidnapped or hypnotized or what have you. these days if it doesn't fit into the main plot, it just doesn't happen. this is a tragedy. we should be protesting.

There’s a theory that early Europeans started saying “brown one” or “honey-eater” instead of “bear” to avoid summoning them, and similarly my friend has started calling Alexa “the faceless woman” because saying her true name awakens her from her slumber

English has an avoidance register used in the presence of certain respected animals, which sounds fancy until you realize it’s spelling out w-a-l-k and t-r-e-a-t in front of the dog.

Hey! All of your drawings do not need to be completely unique from one another. Do you know how many versions and replicas of his Sunflowers Van Gogh actually did? Just draw that naked guy ten times. Reuse that colour palette. Do that pose again. Follow your heart for real, no one can care as much as you do.

I recently had surgery, and at the time I came home, I had both my cat and one of my grandma's cats staying with me.

- Within hours of surgery, I wake up from a nap to my cat gently sniffing at my incisions with great alarm.

- I was not allowed to shower the first day after surgery, and the cats, seeing that The Large Cat is not observing its cleaning ritual, decided I must be gravely disabled and compensated by licking all the exposed skin on my arms, face, and legs.

- I currently have to sleep with a pillow over my abdomen because my cat insists on climbing on top of me and covering my incisions with her body while I sleep (which is very sweet but not exactly comfortable without the pillow). She also lays across me facing my bedroom door, presumably on guard for attackers who may try to harm me while I'm sleeping and injured.

That's love. 🐈‍⬛🐈❤️
