things in DC canon i’ll literally never get over
1. dick finds out batman replaced him as robin (without asking him) from the NEWSPAPER and simultaneously finds out bruce adopted a new kid without telling him (to make things worse: bruce didn’t even adopt dick)
2. dick finds out jason died from the newspaper (AGAIN? REALLY BRUCE?) and bruce had the fucking funeral WITHOUT HIM while he was still in space

thinking about “to know how it ends but still begin to sing it again” and “it’s a story about someone who tries” and “we raise our cups to orpheus not because he succeeds but because he tries. we understand implicitly that there’s value in his trying and even in his failure.” and “it’s a sad song but we keep singing even so.” even when you fail there is value in the fact that you tried and that you believed enough in your goal to try despite knowing you might fail. it is worthwhile to try, because you never know. maybe it will turn out this time! perseverance despite the odds is worth celebrating even if it ends in failure. success is not the only thing that matters. and you never know that the ripple effect of your actions might be. orpheus does not recuse eurydice but he succeeds in helping spring to come again and potentially in preventing other people from losing their loved ones as he did, and that is a good outcome. we do not see the effect he had on the other workers in hadestown. yes, orpheus failed, but maybe if they sing it again someone else will succeed. someone has to keep telling the story.

look I don’t know what award-winning journalist and author daniel molloy said to make louis look like a kicked puppy and armand to huff like a 1950s housewife whose appetisers were just insulted —
but he was absolutely right and they deserved it

Petunia's coat seems like it's getting less greasy in the last few photos! If so, is it because she's allowing pets now? I've noticed with taming ferals that petting improves coat quality - a form of grooming, I suppose.
It’s still very greasy to the touch tbh but I would say it’s a tiny bit better than usual? That being said she’s pretty clumpy rn. In the past I’ve brought her to the clinic and we’ve sedated her to get brushed out. Then when she got a little more tame I was able to brush her out at the clinic without her being sedated bc she did the “if I don’t move nobody will hurt me” thing.
Now it’s been a couple months since she got any brushing because I’ve been doing her nail trims at home with help from my mom. So she is pretty clumpy above her tail :|
I brushed one of them out earlier today and she wanted to bite me soooooo bad but she resisted. I showed her the clump afterwards so she’d understand why I was torturing her. She looked disgusted

I’ve been on a crazy journey of self discovery this year and I’m about to say the most Capricorn thing I can say- I’ve learned that if folks aren’t on your level you don’t have to make yourself smaller to match them you can just keep it stepping and the Divine will match you up with the right folks at the right time
