#Happy Towel Day

[soft-october-night]

If you're very, very lucky today, your friend who you thought was an out of work actor from Guilford but never suspected was truly an alien from the vague region of planet Betelgeuse might drag you along on a whirlwind adventure through the galaxy.

So you better have your towel ready.

A towel, [The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy] says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value. You can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapors; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a miniraft down the slow heavy River Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (such a mind-boggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.

if you're a gay person who's never annoyed by other gay people you don't hang out with enough of them

#i'm annoyed by gay people all the time for example when i call my roommate's kitten stinky and my roommate #immediately starts giving me the third degree because he thinks i'm being unfair to the cat!!! #like no i didn't sniff him multiple times over the day to confirm before calling him stinky i'm just saying the guy reeks! #he doesn't even know and in fact is probably happy about it #said with love for both my roommate and the cat btw they are a blessing #personal nonsense #being annoyed by other gay people is like bonking your sibling with a paper towel tube and getting bonked back

I'm feeling way too tired to draw anything. Have some headcanons to stay fed <3

I like to think that pepperman and Vigilante have a mutual fear of eachother. Pepperman doesn't know Vigilante is afraid of him, because Vigilante keeps his opinions on a majority of the people he knows a secret (so as to keep the mysterious theme.) But Vigilante is aware of the effect he has on pepperman, or atleast somewhat. He knows he makes pepperman uneasy, but that's about it. Vigilante is mainly fearful of pepperman because of his ability to bring himself to actually attack others without batting an eye. No hesitation needed, he shows a sense of fearlessness, whether he's brave or stupid, Vigilante hasn't figured out yet.

Noise, despite being a Mexican, almost daily makes the most racist jokes he can. Out of all of the people to get offended by them, Vigilante is the one who gets the most upset about them, you'd expect it to be peppino but peppino doesn't even listen to a word he says (he's too annoying to listen to.)

Noisette used to be really similar to peppino but had her amygdala removed due to it causing her problems, so she is mentally unbothered by most things. She brings up how she had a Amygdalotomy normally as if it's just a small detail about her life.

Adopted headcanon technically but noise doesn't feel any romantic feelings for noisette, she knows but doesn't really mind. She wants him to tell her though, and wont leave him unless he tells her. He thinks she'd overreact about it, so he doesn't tell her. If anyone were to make noise tell her it'd probably be Vigilante (he feels the need to help everyone he cares about with situations, no matter how personal.)

Pepperman feels like everything needs to have a specific reason behind it. He doesn't believe in thoughtless actions. He would try to decipher the moral reasons why a person would pronounce a word in a specific way. This is one of the reasons Vigilante is uncomfortable around him, because Vigilante delicately thinks all of his actions out morally. Pepperman usually figures out his exact thought process for thw smallest actions, like putting a fallen book back on a shelf.

Peppino is actually an atheist, but he follows a majority of religious beliefs. It isn't out of respect, but fear. He doesn't want to be treated like a sinner by any religion, because if any of them are right, he could be punished. He has Theophobia, basically.

Vigilante is a Satanist. no he does not believe in the actual Satan, he believes in the idea of freedom of belief and being your own God. Gustavo also has similar beliefs, except he personally does believe in Satan. No, neither of them sacrifice baby lambs in the name of Satan, that's not something Satanists do, according to my research.

Pizzahead, similarly to noisette, had an Amygdalotomy. But he did it himself so he lost a majority of his brain. Don't ask how he's alive, he doesn't know.

Hope you enjoyed reading <3

A meaningful 25th of May to all

I always love it when something beautiful or meaningful happens due to a confluence of completely random coincidences. My younger sister loves the color of lilacs, and today was her high school graduation day, so my mom, who has never read anything by Pratchett and who I'm 99% sure doesn't know about the Glorious 25th of May, bought her a congratulatory bouquet of lilacs, so for an unrelated purpose there were lilacs to commemorate the 25th.

Today is also erev Shavuot, a holiday in part about studying the past and preparing for the future, a very Night Watch-y thing to do. I also often think about Terry Pratchett during Jewish holidays, because my faith is deeply intertwined with my ideas about philosophy and morality, and he is one of my favorite philosophers.

I don't think that there is any grand meaning or design behind the coincidental timing of all of this, I think these coincidences just happen sometimes which is, in its own way, even more beautiful.

Anyway, congratulations and mazal tov to all who are graduating, and chag sameach to those who are celebrating Shavuot tonight.

Here's to Truth, Justice, Freedom, Reasonably Priced Love, and a Hard-Boiled Egg!

GNU Terry Pratchett, Z''L

i had a chai "latte" which was a complete bastardization of actual chai btw . because i needed something lightly caffeinated to get started with studying, but the boosting effects only lasted 1.5 hours (as expected) and I've been dying of fatigue since noon (as expected) and well I knew this would happen but I hoped (foolishly) that it wouldn't because having actual coffee will wake me up and also make me extremely anxious (I have been weirder than usual in terms of worrying since last week. idk why the meds arent .. doing what they usually do) so yeah 👍🏻 i feel shitty

#idk what to do with myself my neck hurts so bad i pulled a muscle or slept weird or something bc its so fucked #also my lower back hurty. #and noises are so annoying this lady keeps screeching (laughing) and yay im so glad someone on this hell earth is having a good time but #SHUT THE FUCK UPPPPPP #i wabt to go home i dont actually have anything against the happy lady i hope she has a nice day fr #in positive news i was in the womens bathroom bc no gender neutral ones here and this old lady #couldn't get the paper towel dispenser to work so i helped her and then i complimented her green sweater it was very cute #z.post

Another reason not to let your cats free roam

TW: Animal injury (but hopefully the cat will be okay)

Well, I just had to rescue one of my neighbors' cats from dangling from a fence by her back leg :/ I don't know how long she had been stuck there, but hopefully not too long, and she's with her owners now so will be getting checked by a vet.

She was lucky that I seem to have an ear for crying cats, though, because no one else was out looking for her, not even the people in the houses on either side of the fence she was stuck in. I fear what would have happened if I wasn't one to go looking and she was stuck there until who knows when.

Just remember this when you let your cats free roam - it is very easy for them to get injured and for no one to find them until it's too late. So please don't let them if you can.

#I normally wouldn't blog about events in my day #but today has not been a good day mood wise #(unfortunately that is nothing new for me) #and now I'm feeling weird because I know I should be happy I saved a cat but I just feel anxious and empty #Like I'm more worried I injured her worse when I tried to lift her up #and I can't stop thinking about how I didn't grab her properly and how I'm lucky she let me carry her home without wiggling too much #because I am weak and my arms tire quickly so I was worried I was going to drop her the entire time #and the only reason I didn't get scratched up was because she is a very nice cat who lets people pick her up #and because I was able to borrow a towel from a neighbor that I could drape over my arm as I scooped her off the fence #and she let me use it as a platform under her instead of twisting abound and trying to latch onto me #and basically I hope if I write this down and someone tells me I did a good job or something it will trigger in my brain #and I will actually feel I did a good thing
