What I love most about this is that this person was SO INCENSED at the recipient that they couldn't even wait the days/weeks it would take for the mail to go through. No, they had to say "FUCK YOU" as soon as fucking possible and, AND, let the recipient that they were not done with the fuck you, nay, this was merely the first volley in what would undoubtably be a dressing down of Biblical proportions.

I'm riffing on the "filling a pumpkin with meat and putting it in a large cat's enclosure as enrichment" thing, with some "candles in pumpkins = jack-o'-lanterns, candles in paper bag = flying lantern, candle in meat pumpkin = flying meat pumpkin? like a message in a bottle but enrichment?" thoughts

tumblr post from mrspider:

important hurdle crossed relationship wise w my boyfriend today was i finally realized what is tiring for me might be someone else's meat pumpkin and that i dont have to worry about him not relaxing the same way i do because we are simply different people. and that is okay

tumblr post from mrspider:

screenshot of a google result leading to https://carolinatigerrescue.org/newsroom/pumpkin-enrichment/ : Pumpkin Enrichment - Carolina Tiger Rescue

> Keepers stuff pumpkins with raw meat and spray them with perfume. We leave them in an animal's enclosure and watch the fun as tigers and lions come bounding in ...

[post continues] ive also realized that meat pumpkin is not a commonly used term and im just really autistic for zoology and non-domesticated animal care

Tumblr post from ziggyplayedd on Jan 11, 2019:

things that made me stop wanting to die that require no effort whatsoever
• change the color used to highlight text on your laptop
• move the pictures on your wall
• stack whatever clutter is in your room into piles even if you don't have time to clean it all
• slightly vary your commute, even just by one street
• change where you sit and scroll aimlessly on your phone even if it's only to the chair in your room instead of your bed
• drink water or juice out of a wine glass in the morning because nothing is real
• shower with the lights off, without music
• buy $3 flowers at trader joe's —they look bad next to the more expensive ones but they look so good in your room
• start typing things you don't post into your notes. your thoughts can be worth documenting even if you don't deem them worth sharing
• wake up super early just once. you don't have to make it a habit it's just extra satisfying to go to bed that night
• listen to the entirety of your favorite album from 2015

Reply from sandersstudies on Mar 4, 2019

Almost all of these are about variety. Humans need stimulation! We need enrichment! We literally cannot do the same thing every day!

The other day I was feeling miserable, so I hopped on a bus and rode it all the way back to where I'd started, and my brain, which had finally had some proper stimulation via new environments, was suddenly ready to go again!

This is why taking walks/drives and trying new hobbies are good for you! Don't turn yourself into a sad zoo animal! You need some pumpkins to roll around in your enclosure!

I don't know if cocoa drinkers here are ace or nb4nb or what, but

A comic by @artbymoga, depicting three people.

The top left person is captioned "Tea drinkers" and is ranting "Coffee is disgusting! I only drink the finest leaves!"

The top right person is captioned "Coffee drinkers" and is dismissively saying "Tea is just pompous water, real adults drink coffee".

The bottom person (possibly representing Moga, based on the stars in the eyes) is captioned "Cocoa drinkers" and is wrapped up in a blanket cheerfully saying "Sometimes I add rainbow sprinkles"

It's also possible you can just go into the browser's developer console and search for "vtt" in the network requests. I couldn't find a public Zoom video with the "transcript" interface but this one has subtitles, and indeed, here's the VTT file in the console that I could then download.

A screenshot of a Zoom recording from cityofdetroit's zoom, with the Firefox developer console open, showing a network requests search for "vtt". One of the requests is selected, and the response shows a subtitle file's contents starting with the same line as the video player is displaying for its in-video subtitles.

kermit: *stunned open mouth silence*

miss piggy: yet every day since i first saw you at the dance all i have been able to think about is how you are suitable for nothing in life but to be my bride! you are below me in every possible way but you simply must let me marry you!

kermit, flailing uncontrollably: THIS IS YOUR IDEA OF A MARRIAGE PROPOSAL?!?!

A wooden plate piled high with olives, overlaid with text:

Off work late? Hungry, but too tired to cook? Try 30 to 40 olives. 30 to 40 olives: an easy weeknight dinner. eat them directly out of the jar with your fingers. you will certainly not regret eating 30 to 40 olives.

It's like cooking spinach.

Two photos captioned "Cooking spinach" posted on okaymad.tumbir.com. The first depicts before-cooking spinach, piled high in a pan, almost overflowing. The second depicts the same pan, with a pitifully tiny amount of cooked spinach in the bottom of the pan.

I thought it was a really clever reference to "the littlest nope", with the single paw print and the decorative border that could be a door threshold! (www.reddit.com/r/nope/comme...)

Looking down at the threshold of the door of the house leading to the outside with a layer of puffy white snow. The snow is untouched save for a single perfect cat paw print, making it extremely clear the cat put one foot on the snow, said "nope", and went back inside.

No new pictures — where are you mentally?

Handling: General considerations

The cat is faster and has sharper teeth and nails than you do. It has no 'code of ethics' or considerations for its own future.

Not true! He also smiles beatifically after undertaking mortification of the flesh!

[Calvin and Hobbes are playing with trucks.]

CALVIN: When you're a kid, you don't have much variety of experience.
You live with your parents and that's all you know. you grow up thinking whatever they do is "normal".

[Calvin's dad opens the door, glasses fogged, nose and cheeks red from cold, hat and sweater and gloves and covered in sleet, with a cold storm blowing in from outside behind him. He is grinning like a maniac.]
CALVIN'S DAD: Ahh, what a day! Up at 6:00, a 10-mile run in the sleet, and *now* a big bowl of plain oatmeal! How i love the crazy hedonism of weekends!

CALVIN: Well, maybe "normal" is too strong a word.

HOBBES: I think we'd know normal if we saw it.

The "What a week, huh?" meme (Captain Haddock says "What a week, huh?" while looking tired, and Tintin replies "Captain, it's Wednesday.") but intentionally poorly edited to read "Jabs, it's Thursday" instead.

Protecting your protagonists from suffering cause you like them does the opposite of earning my investment. It makes me like them less! I am not asking you to kill your darlings but a slight maiming is certainly in order.

It extremely is. Relax; whether you are concerned with your health or your productivity, your inherent self-worth or your value to others, rest and relaxation are not just ok but deeply important!
