Also it’s not like this was a fucking surprise to anyone I’ve been weirded out about turning 30 for MONTHS and I’ve been saying how much it bothers me and how strange it is AND ALSO WHAT FUCKING DAY ITS GONNA HAPPEN ON

EVEN THE HOMELESS GUY AT MY JOB WISHED ME A GODDAMN HAPPY BIRTHDAY

so you know, maybe I wouldn’t be so pissed about some other birthday, but this is a pretty prominent milestone and I’m freaked out at my own age a little And you act like an aloof little shit about it so thanks for that youre the fucking best

[iguesslikewhatever]

Look if you forget when my birthday is that’s one thing, but if you find out when it is because I hinted heavily, twice, and then you proceed to pretend to have known all along That not only severely undermines how smart you think I am but also makes you look like a giant asshole for having “known all day” but still pointedly saying nothing to me about it. I had to hint, twice. And then you turned a simple “happy birthday” into a pity party about how poor you always are and how torn up it makes you that you can’t even buy me a present, and how you’ve been lamenting it all day You are a really shitty unconvincing liar.

Look, I wasn’t expecting presents, I was expecting a simple ackowledgement from someone who repeatedly claims I’m one of the most important people in their lives. I just wanted you to say something. But no, you forgot, which could have been forgivable except that afterwords you couldn’t just admit it, you had to pull that bullshit stunt which tbh made me feel like the LEAST important person in your life, You repeatedly fail so hard at make me feel like a human being, let alone your “important friend”, and today just couldn’t be an exception, could it?

Now I’m awake at 2 am making shitty bitchposts on tumblr instead of sleeping because you had to do this shit right at the end of my day (which had been going great actually so thanks for kicking me right in my rare and fragile good mood) and now I can’t goddamn sleep because I’m too upset

And I would talk to you about this to try and resolve it but we’ve had this discussion before, about how you make me feel dismissed A LOT, and you know what? I’m fucking tired of doing it. You don’t seem to be all that eager to consider what the words coming out of your mouth will do to me, and you dont need to ever bother changing because I’m conveniently ignorable when I get “too emotional and accusatory”

The best part is, you’ll never read this because you never get on tumblr. I’m bitching to no one, and I’m just going to stew in my own emotions and be angry at you until I’m finally distracted enough to stop remembering all the different ways you keep hurting me

Bruin was outside and got struck by a car. He somehow crawled back to the house from the road with his pelvis not even connected to his spine any longer. Bruin can’t heal with rest and needs surgery as his pelvis is only connected by muscle. The surgery costs $3600 and I want to keep him. Bruin is only 2-3 years old and has so much to live for and we love him so very much.

Please donate anything you can, we need to raise this money ASAP. Please PLEASE share this.

His GoFundMe is here.

If you are awake right now, what time is it there and what are you thinking about?

FIV+ kitten needs a home or she will be put down

Okay, listen up. I know this isn’t bird-related, but it is VERY IMPORTANT.

This is Hermione. Several weeks ago, she and her three brothers were abandoned at our clinic.

All four tested positive for FIV, or feline AIDS. Shortly after, they all developed a secondary infection. The other three didn’t make it, but Hermione is recovering wonderfully.

HOWEVER

She still needs a home! Being FIV+ means she will need to be an INDOOR ONLY cat, and preferably the only cat in a household, unless your other cats are also FIV+.

Since she is SO YOUNG, though, it may be a FALSE POSITIVE, and she can be tested again when she is six months old.

We are currently going to function under the assumption that she DOES have FIV, though.

FIV+ cats are extremely difficult to place, but they can make wonderful, loving pets! Hermione is an absolute angel who only wants to play and cuddle all day long.

If Hermione isn’t found a loving, FIV+ friendly home soon, she WILL BE PUT DOWN.

If you live in or around the Morgantown, West Virginia (Monongohela County) area and are interested and know anyone else who might be, PLEASE drop me a line. I am willing to transport her a ways if you don’t live in the immediate area!

Won’t you please signal boost and help us find a safe place for her?

Someone with a social anxiety disorder will never get tired of hearing you say:

“I’m here for/with you” “I like you” “I love you” “I value you as a person” “Your opinions matter to me” “I’ll go with you if it’s too scary” “No matter what your anxiety tells you I’m not going anywhere” “Your feelings are valid”

Especially when they’re anxious Especially when they’re anxious Especially when they’re anxious

Even if you’ve already said it. Say it again. And again. Please. Cause it may seem silly to someone without S.A.D., but it’s actually really reassuring to be reminded of having support even if we were just reminded last week, or last month, or yesterday. It’s important. Really important. Cause the anxiety will often lead us to feel alone, unloved, like the person might go away if we share our feelings, even when we know it’s not true. It’s a million times easier to be convinced by someone else than by our own anxious brains sometimes.

This has been a PSA.

Why do I find this so funny 😂

Anxiety attacks aren’t always hyperventilating and rocking back and forth

Anxiety attacks can take different forms, such as:

Unpredictable bouts of rage or irritability

Nit-pickiness (obsessive behavior, which may be a part of OCD), and even a hypersensitivity to disarray, chaos, or any sort of change

Fast-talking, stuttering, stumbling over words

Not talking at all

Sitting rigid, staring into space, almost seeming “zoned out”

Understanding the way our or other’s anxiety works can help to decrease the stigma and help to calm a person faster and get them out of that state. These are just a few, but it gives an idea of the range in which attacks can come.

Too bad my boss is a dick who doesn't care

Shoutout to everyone with memory problems- people who forget what they’re doing a second after they start doing it, who never remember seemingly obvious things, who struggle at work and jobs because they can’t remember directions properly. People who get yelled at a bunch because people don’t understand that it’s really hard to deal with being unable to remember something that happened literal seconds ago.

[iguesslikewhatever]

[iguesslikewhatever]

[iguesslikewhatever]

Yep.

Please reblog if:

•your anxiety has made it difficult for you to voice your opinion

•your anxiety has made it difficult to dress the way you want

•your anxiety has made it difficult to ask for help

•your anxiety has made you constantly worry if you are being annoying and wonder if your friends and family are valid relationships or if they just put up with you because they have to

And please know that you are not fighting this battle alone. You are worth more than your anxiety says. You matter and so does your opinion and your say. You are awesome

fun fact: when max is tired and cant run anymore he goes back to the citadel where furiosa rules and she tells him he can rest now, and he spends his time sitting at her feet while she conducts meetings with advisers and diplomats and runs her fingers thru his hair
