#but silly me

[cipher-the-sidhe]

Trying not to run screaming in the streets over the absolute horseshit conclusion printed on Tokitae’s official necropsy report.

Old age? OLD FUCKING AGE???? She was in her 50s! Her mom is still swimming free at a grand 98 years. J2 was 106 when she died. 50s is not “died of old age” territory for her pod. For a captive orca 50 is old age sure, but WHY IS THAT HMMM????? Why are captive orcas expected to live half as long as wild ones I wonder??? I am BITING.

And what was with all the “she’s in great health!” reports we got not two weeks before she died of- apparently- chronic and acute EVERYTHING? Heart disease, renal failure, pituitary mineralization, pneumonia… excuse me?????? Surely those weren’t all just conveniently missed in what I can only assume were the most useless health checks ever performed.

Anyways, I’m absolutely rabid in the worst way over this bullshit. Not even the decency to be honest about her after her death. Fuck the Miami Seaquarium, fuck the Dolphin Company, fuck Friends of Tokitae, and fuck every single facility that keeps cetaceans for entertainment.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

it should be illegal to put ads in apps or sites for solitaire or picross or sudoku tbh. playing classic puzzle games uninterrupted needs to be a HUMAN RIGHT

And why? Cultural norms? Personal schedule? “Cause I’m always late to everything”?

Bonus points: Region and/or ethnicity?

There’s that post that’s like ‘everyone should get into a tiny niche fandom at least once’ fully agree, that was really fun -- but I would like to add that everyone should get into a fandom where their opinions run counter to major fanon because it really teaches you about sticking to your guns and trusting your interpretation of the text without having to rely on peer validation

because WHAT are people talking about sometimes

Robot characters who are given names like SL-308-62 but instead of their human friend going Well let's call you Sally for short, they instead ask the other if they Like their current name.

"Do you like your serial number?" they ask. "Yes, quite. It reminds me of who I am" the robot replies. "I have heard others like me go by different names after some time, and maybe one day I'll choose one for myself, too. But right now that is my full name, yes" they continue.

Because it's not your decision to make whether or not the robot will receive a new name. It should be theirs only. What's the difference? One is more complex and the other is simplified. They were both given by strangers instead of themselves.

"62 will do," they conclude. "It's my model number - there will be no other 62 after me."

hey did you know??? that if you stop stretching and maintaining mobility in your body then it goes away?? things get tight and you can't move the way that you used to??? and when you decide to try getting a stretch routine going that the first week fucking sucks because you keep going 'damn i used to be able to do this no problem' and then you have to switch gears and be kind to yourself and just focus on getting better from here instead of berating yourself for dropping the good habits in the first place??? and your body never stops aging so you gotta keep taking care of it and sometimes you gotta take care of it extra in certain areas because of things that happened when you were younger and it's boring and sometimes hurts but it's so necessary???

i am yelling this at myself right now i am going through An Experience (trying to get into a routine of body maintenance again for my physical and mental health)
