HI HELLO

I HAVE BEEN AWAY FOR LIKE... MULTIPLE YEARS NOW? Im gonna be honest I have not been keeping track of years that much. i had to take a Very long break from pretty much everything to do a lot of much-needed sorting out for my life and corral myself into a more manageable space. because truth be told i was using most of the online spaces i was in less as ways to have fun and interact with people, more as mechanisms to either distract myself or hurt myself, and that turned me into a fucking wreck who couldn't fathom taking care of or genuinely improving herself, let alone actually do it. my first order of business back here is saying that i started a new blog over at @someweirdladybug. this one is pretty much going to be an archive/read only thing going forward, but I do still want to keep it up. this site was a sizable part of my time growing into myself for better or worse, and getting rid of it feels like denying that part of my life happened. All that being said, you are far more likely to make contact with me at the new one.

I'll probably reblog this a few more times over the course of the next few weeks just to get the message out, but after this site came back into my mind i realized i just. vanished from the lives of some folks and whether they noticed or not, it didn't sit right with me just fucking off into the aether without another peep.

TICK PSA

Alright you guys, ‘tis the season again and I’ve already seen bullshit float about so here we go: what to do and what not to do when you happen to have a tick attached to yours truly.

WHAT NOT TO DO:

DON’T cover the tick in anything. Vaseline, nailpolish, whatever. Doesn’t matter. It’ll all suffocate the tick, making it panic vomit germs into your blood stream. That’s the opposite of what you want.

DON’T burn the tick. Same problem, plus the additional option of giving yourself a burn wound in the process. 

DON’T squeeze the body of the tick when you try to remove it. Again this empties the tick’s digestive system into your body. Bad. 

DON’T wait for the tick to detach itself. The longer it stays on you, the higher the chances it’ll transmit anything to you. Plus when ti detaches it may again vomit germs into you. 

WHAT TO ACTUALLY DO

STAY CALM. A tick hanging on you is not a reason to panick. You’re not going to keel over just like that, and if you’re unsure what to do, there are many resources on the internet on how to safely remove a tick, like this one from the CDC (aka the professionals)

USE APPROPRIATE TOOLS. These can be suitable tweezers (the pointy kind, not blunt tipped ones), tick removers (there are cheap ones out there, those you can buy at the vets are totally fine for use on humans, too!). Ideally you can remove the entire tick in one go, however if that doesn’t work and the mouth part breaks off in your skin, that’s not a terribly big deal and you can totally remove it separately after you got the body remove. Again, don’t panic.

KILL THE REMOVED TICK. But not by squeezing it. Flush it down the toilet, submerse it in alcohol in a container etc. Ideally if the tick has bitten you and not your dog, keep the tick around in a sealed container in case you start having symptoms and someone needs to identify the tick species. Also IF you start getting symptoms like the tell tale Lyme disease rash, HIT A DOCTOR RIGHT AWAY AND TELL THEM ABOUT YOUR TICK BITE. Do not wait this out, ticks can transmit a whole host of diseases beside Lyme, so be mindful of that, too! 

Some of those diseases you can actually get vaccinated again, such as tick born encephalitis. Check with the local authorities if you live in a risk area, and if so, get the shots to protect yourself.

just so everyone knows Facebook and Instagram aren't down because of some technical problem. a former employee released data and research that revealed the extent to which Facebook has profited off of and intentionally allowed things like hate speech, misinformation, and violence on the platform (as well as the negative impact of Instagram on young women in particular), they're being faced with a lawsuit, and as a result their stock critically dropped more than 5% in the past 18 hours. something tells me Facebook isn't actually down. this is a diversion.

Rango is a decade old this year and it still puts almost all other cg animal characters to shame. All of these designs look cute and lovable and reasonably lifelike and it is because they have accurate animal eyes and mouths instead of disgusting putrid rubbery humanlike ones.
