Hey folks and friends! Guess who is kinda sort back? ME!
As you probably know from my downstream posts, my sister had a major health crisis and I moved her and her cats in with me and my dogs, and there was a major operation then chemo.
It has been a little over six months and I have been just...I don't know how to even describe my state of mind, especially during the weeks I actively thought she was dying. Just. I was fucked. Let's just say that.
But the good news is, she was declared cancer free last week (EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE) and we are trying to put our lives back together as a family, and I am trying to put my mental health back together.
A big part of my mental health is the act of nerdery. Book analysis. Writing. Creativity. It's a hugely important outlet for me.
So if you missed me or my writing at all, just know I missed being here even more.
To anyone who commented on my posts about her or sent me messages or asks, thank you so so so much for your kindness. It mattered to see that humanity and goodness still exists on the internet.
I'm gently wading back in.
I hope you are all well. And we will see if people are still interested in my witcher content. I went through the tag, and I don't know many of the creators now, and the folks I follow have seemed to mostly moved on to other fandoms.
So I'll be finding more folks to follow and boost (not to worry, I don't unfollow mutuals for leaving my fandom. We're buds now). But if you have any blogs to recommend lemme know.
See you around my friends! Oh, and I'm gonna start working through my asks and inbox tomorrow.
xoxo

Ayo! Greetings! I hope you are doing pretty well! I’m really sorry for asking this as I’m truly in dire need of help. My cat needs some immediate help for her surgery so I’m trying to raise some funds for her. If you have some spare time, please check it out the post that I have pinned for her, and if you feel it in your heart to help, please do us the favor by boosting the post or share it! Even if you cannot donate, spreading the word is definitely more than enough. Thank you for your kindness, and so sorry again for being this direct! <33
THIS IS A SCAMMER
But how do I know? And shouldn’t I reblog it just in case? It’s a valid concern. Fortunately, there are a few quick steps anyone can take to assess the validity of a charity request. Because at the end of the day, spreading a just-in-case message can have real negative consequences as other people continue to spread the scam on a just-in-case basis.
A sense of urgency (sickness, eminent surgery, etc)
They ask you directly to give them something
Familiarity, such as calling you “dear” or “hun”
Comments turned off
New account with few if any posts
Direct messages that ask for privacy in the matter
Use of pets, children, irrelevant mention of demographics (please help a disabled queer single parent feed their sick cat, etc)
No response to requests for more information
Copy and paste message that gets sent to numerous people
Photos that do not match up with the origin as found through reverse image search
Lack of creativity: you receive a similarly or identically worded request from a random account
Melodramatic backstory--we rescued this cat from an alligator attack that almost took the cat's eye!
Donation account linked to a country at high risk for hosting scam operations
And others. These are not ironclad rules, nor do they always show up in every scam post. Maybe they ARE a disabled queer single parent who can't afford to feed their sick cat. But these elements are patterns you can look for in order to make an informed judgment call. There is at least one popular tumblr account here that will not post any donation links unless the asker fills out a form allowing the account holder to independently prove their identity and issue. If a person is truly desperate and actually needs help, they will fill out that form. Asking for more information is always a good idea, as is doing a reverse image search to see where else the photos might have been posted. Checking keywords on tumblr is also a good bet. Remember: posting lies is quick and easy. Providing proof is not. And that’s critical if money is involved.
Scammers suck. But some of them are very good at what they do. They are masters of using people’s guilt and empathy against them.
Let's dig deeper.
First, let's check out that melodramatic backstory. It's a doozy!
It was actually her Birthday yesterday….well her gotcha Birthday! We found her on our balcony 4 years ago after an awful noise was heard and I still don’t know if she jumped up scared from something or if she was thrown on there 😔
She wasn’t chipped. Vet said it looked like she hadn’t long had kittens and looked about 3 years old herself. Couldn’t find her owners, so she joined our family. (Oh I looked for kittens believe me) She is the sweetest girl we ever met. She even purrs when she sleeps 😻we so love her.
We just very recently lost our cat Mimi. She had cancer sadly but we fought so hard to help her but in the end it won. We have an elderly dog called Billa who just two weeks ago turned 20!!!! Any day now we could lose her, she’s feeling her age 😔
I mention those two because it’s just too overwhelming and feels like Maggie is the only one I can help now. Upon an annual vet visit recently with Maggie….so I could get flea meds for her and her brother Milow that they were due to have…the vet found she had two masses….or tumors. One at the bottom of her back next to her tail (I don’t know how I didn’t see it before I’m so ashamed) and when she pressed on her stomach, my loving Maggie started growling which I can honestly say in the time we’ve had her she’s never done that. We did an X-ray and she found a mass in her stomach 😔 we also did a biopsy.
This is just so unexpected and so overwhelming after losing Mimi and knowing we will be losing Billa soon…just can’t lose Maggie also. I hate being in this position. I really pay forward as much as I can. I’ve helped out a couple of women with bags and cases of food for the cat colony’s they feed. One woman with food who has a lot of fosters who needed help with food. I think it’s 3 different pet surgeries I’ve helped contribute to for their treatment. It sucks to be on this side now but I’m really praying somehow it might be my turn to get some help to help Maggie get her ct scan so they can figure out the surgery route to remove the tumor from her stomach. I wish I was in a better situation at this moment to not need any help. We’ve always been there to help our babies no matter what they’ve needed, you have to try at least to help them.. And we’ve been able to pay for it ourselves until now. Now I’m able to work here, it can help set us up for future pet issues….I mean, we do everything for these guys including going to work lol but I’ve literally only had my permanent status the last few days instead of visas and it’s all been on my hubby until now who has been amazing, but after paying for Mimi’s help and then end of life, my flight to and from England for my immigration and all those fees and just paying for everything on his own…there’s a lack of funds now.
I just want Maggie to get some help and will somehow have to make this happen for her, so please if you have the means to, you can donate to my paypal which is linked down below
Come on, dude. At least be creative. Please make note of the highlights: dramatic injury, insistence (with evidence!) that the scammer is a Good Person Who Gives Back, Cancer Cat & Old Dog supporting characters, immigration drama regarding visas, sick cat had kittens that were never found, etc.
[speculation incoming] Also, laws regarding the importation of pet animals from other countries are strict, and always involve a vet visit. I doubt a vet would clear a cat with tumors to fly out of the country. Even if they did, the timeline here is weird. This vet clinic is in California. [speculation over]
Okay now let's look at these photos. (PSSST I instantly knew this person was a scammer because I've seen these exact x-rays and screenshots on other posts with different cat images. That's something else to look for. Scammers want to expend as little energy as possible in their hunt for your money.)
Where is the scam coming from?
Hovering over the Paypal link, I see the account is located in the Philippines, a country with a high risk of scam hosting. Red flags on red flags.
How to Reverse Image Search
Find a search engine that will let you search by image. This is Google Images on a Firefox browser on PC. Clicking the little camera gives me the option to upload, paste, or give the URL to a photo.
This time, the photo search wasn't helpful. There were no identical matches that Google picked up right away. But I'm including how to do this anyway because it's good to know.
Search Tumblr
We all know tumblr search sucks, but after looking up "cat scam" in the search bar, I found Everything.
Wait a minute.
SHIT THEY GOT MAVERICK POST CANCELED
@kyra45 appears to have amassed some good resources for finding and documenting these scams.
Be aware, be smart, report scam accounts for spam, block them, and do not post donation links "just in case."

there's a common criticism of the jurassic world movies that goes like "trying to weaponize raptors is such a stupid idea. the military would never do that". but my main criticism of that particular plot, from a third worldist perspective, would actually be that it doesn't go far enough.
"it's a crazy idea to even suggest--" in the 1950s CIA operatives attempted psychological warfare on a filipino village by spreading rumors that aswang (vampire-esc creatures) were hunting down rebels. they'd kidnap rebels, create dual puncture wounds in the neck, drain the body of blood, and leave the body for the community to find. they've done crazier.
"it's a stupid idea--" so were most of the ways they plotted (or failed) to assassinate fidel castro. exploding shellfish he'd pick up while scuba diving, tuberculosis-causing-fungi in a scuba mask, exploding cigar, ballpoint pen with secret syringe full of poison, just exploding places, etc. like the vast majority of declassified programs would make you look crazy if you told someone about them, despite the evidence of them existing. in the 1960s they put a tiny microphone + radio transmitter in a cat and tried to use it to spy on the soviets. it was called "acoustic kitty".
"animals just aren't efficient--" drug sniffing dogs can have inaccuracy ranges from 1/3-½ of the time. studies have determined that they can pick up on their trainer's racism and target minorities without any illicit substances because the trainer suspects them to have them. there's also a long history of trying to use intelligent animals as spies (crows, ravens, dolphins, pigeons, dogs, etc). most of these aren't actually more efficient than drones in the end, but they still try it just to see if it would work.
"raptors wouldn't be effective against enemy tanks--" most of the people these raptors would be deployed against wouldn't actually have tanks. they'd be guerrilla fighters who rely on hit and run tactics. or if they do have tanks, they'd be relatively old ones from the soviet era without the same modern capabilities. the USA does not wage war (or, proxy war in most cases) with actual military nations. the better question would be how bullet resistant are their scales which has a scene answering it in the first movie (you'll be dead before you manage a hit).
"but raptors are wild animals that might hurt the troops--" the army gave their own troops cancer and denies many healthcare for it to this day. bases would have these things called "burn pits" where you burn all your trash including ones that produce toxic gas like plastic and electronics. toxic gas, as the name implies, can give you anything from asthma to cancer. yes, they knew it did that. yes, they still use them.
the question of "if" training raptors for war is a good idea or smart idea falls flat when we consider that based on historical context, neither of these things are necessarily required for military projects. if someone can think of it, they will try it. the better question to ask is "would the military believe they have something to gain from it?" because that is the only truly relevant one in this situation.
the answer is "yes". it would be a niche that has not been explored. whether or not the raptors specifically work in war would be irrelevant because part of military operation on animals is understanding if an animal is capable of collaboration. take acoustic cat: the mission was ultimately abandoned, but was considered a "win" because they realized the limitations of cats as tools of war. they were deemed incapable of long-term espionage ability due to trainability, but were not completely ruled out for future short term espionage ability, were a niche to arise.
when we apply all of this understanding to the world movies, we get a firmer grasp on why the semantics don't particularly matter as much as the intended message: "just because we can do things doesn't mean we should". which is in line with the themes of jurassic park as a film.

URGENT HELP PLEASE DONATE
The continuous bombardment and the ongoing genocide pose a significant threat to their well-being. What pains me even more is that due to the lack of medications in Gaza, my Mom, who is a type 2 Diabetis patiant and was scheduled for an urgent eye surgery, have had no access to insulin or any medical care for the past 3 months. Some of my family members sought refuge in the southernmost part of Gaza (Rafah) in tents. However, my parents, and sisters have no alternative place to stay, forced to remain in the Nusierat refugee camp, which is now the subject of continuous severe bombardment since christmas started.” Am on my knees requesting for your donations. Please help where possible.
Jesus fucking Christ this is the worst one. You are about the 10th one of these I've gotten as of late. Brand new account (not even a few hours old!), in desperate need of my financial help without us ever interacting. Seems they often go for people who post/rb shit about Palestine. Always someone's kidneys failing or dog in need of surgery or mother with stage 8 cancer and I am their saving grace
Truly have you no shame? The attacks in Palestine are catastrophic, tens of thousands massacred. I know there are plenty more people running scams right now but have you seen that image of half of a little girl hanging from a wall? So many videos of people being killed, harassed, injured. Children with no skin left on their faces, people screaming over their loved ones bodies, people screaming covered in burns or being operated on without anesthesia. Kids bleeding out next to their legs. A cat so badly injured that all he can do is lie still on his side and cry in pain. Newborns in the ICU screaming and crying because they're dying and their bodies are shutting down slowly. And all you see is an opportunity to steal from people
Kys you stupid motherfucker
#namedropping the refugee camps doesn't make your shit credible#free palestine#palestine#gaza#posting in these tags so people know that you're a piece of shit and they need to know to watch out for this shit#the feigned desperation you are truly sick in the fucking head you know that?#mf blocked me lmfao#i was born with glass bones and paper skin looking ass mf

I’m going to try and list the events of today - just so I don’t lose track.
Dawn. Barnum got us moving by 7:00 as usual. Maggie had a pee accident in the night, and the stench was horrible. Bri took Bernie and Maggie out, I took Murphy, and followed up with the Woodge.
Fed the cats and started a fire in the stove in the kitchen. Yeah…we ran out heating oil yesterday afternoon. Had a limited supply of wood and coal, but it began to take the chill off…
Maggie threw up.
And now it gets serious. I googled up pyometra a deadly infection which un-spayed female dogs can get post-heat. Yup. Bri called the vet and talked them into seeing her immediately.
He called the fuel oil company and begged for a delivery - then off he went with Maggie into town.
I continued cleaning and moving things back to the studio - my client guy is coming at 2:00 to pick up his paintings. I bake two loaves of cinnamon bread, and loaf of white bread for tomorrow mornings breakfast. Swill down a cup of coffee, and keep tidying up.
The belt on the dryer busted yesterday, leaving me with two loads of wet laundry which will continue to be wet and will soon begin to get moldy. Bri ordered a replacement part and we will look forward to taking the dryer apart (AGAIN) in about a weeks time.
I mix a bucket of green mold killer and have a go at the front step and walkway - it’s become ridiculously slippery and neither one of us wants to hit the ground hard. I scrub with a chunk of old broom, and leave it to do its thing…
Bri returns with some cat and dog food procured from the vets - but no Maggie. “Shes going to have surgery today. She’s infected and has to have a hysterectomy.”
Barnum had surgery four days ago to remove a cancerous mass in his belly. Now it’s Maggie’s turn.
I take Murphy out again, apply the xeroxed info onto the back of all the completed paintings, and keep tidying. Magda the vet calls to say that Maggie will be operated on this evening, and promises to call and let us know how things went.
The oil guy shows up, pumps €500 into the tank - and leaves. Bri goes out to jump start the boiler.
It doesn’t start. “I’m going to drive to Belleek and buy more wood and coal” - and so he does.
I find the boiler-guys phone number. He’ll be here in two hours.
My client shows up, we chat, drink coffee - he refuses my cinnamon bread, but likes Woodgie very much? We load his Mercedes with the paintings (he’s brought me another BIG one) - I tuck several of my pillows and blankets around the art to cushion them for the ride home.
He does not hand me money.
Which leaves John the boiler guy unpaid. He arrives, works his magic over the next hour - I wrap up a fat slice of cinnamon bread and tell him we will drop his money off at his house tommorrow.
I start making the dough for tonight’s pizza. A figure looms in the doorway - it’s Pat. “I’m just coming from a funeral in Kilty and had to stop as we were passing. Do you mind if I show some people your house?”
Pat is always welcome, I would say “drunk or sober” but somehow we never see “sober”
He rolls in. He is followed by four other people from the funeral - three of whom are smashed. The kind woman who IS sober apologizes for the drop-in, but it really doesn’t matter at this point. They are roaming around the house, tripping over dogs and enjoying Pats tour.
The funeral is for a young g man who “was shot” -?! There is confusion as to whether it was suicide? “In his side” - and yet nobody mentions murder. We offer our sincere condolences.
The tour comes to an end, they all roll outside again - and we bid them farewell- “safe home.”
It’s now 8:00. The pizza dough is rising, the dogs are passed out in front of the fire - and we still have not heard from the vet.
It’s been a day, and no mistake.

-> OC TAG GAME
tagged by the incredible and talented @carlosoliveiraa to fill this out; tysm! loved reading abt your girlies ♡
forgive any duplicate tags, but here's some no pressure tags: @vendettavalor (free meme for the rp blog babey!), @captastra , @alexxmason , @kourumi , @ollierachnid , @perpetuagf , and anybody else who wants to fill it out! tried to remember as many folk as i could-
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
name: otsune tomo (westernized: tomo otsune)
nickname: the lone wanderer, that kid from vault 101, kid
gender: agender nonbinary
star sign: i could only go to 2035 with the site i use, so i just used that as their birth year. but theoretically, they'd be a cancer sun, scorpio moon, and virgo rising.
personality type: enfp (the campaigner). very friendly, energetic, creative and innovative. an absolute nerd (taking after their dad; but with their mother's gentle heart)
height: 5’2
orientation: pansexual
nationality/ethnicity: japanese-american. james (father) is japanese-american as well, and catherine (mother) was japanese.
favorite fruit: pears
favorite season: late summer/early autumn. not too hot, not too cold.
favorite scent: snow and pine. when they first experienced winter outside of the vault, they found it very... interesting. it wasn't really matching what the books in the vault had said, but it was still interesting to see how the coldness of the air changed the smell of the landscape. but when they went through the operation anchorage simulation? felt and smelt a true, proper winter? it was their favorite thing they'd experienced (even if muddled by the everything else).
coffee, tea, or hot chocolate: they really enjoyed tea, though it's hard to come across in tact leaves (or even steepable bags) in the wasteland. harder yet to come across purified water, at least until after project purity is up. still, they miss the variable drink supply of the vault
average hours of sleep: somewhere between 4 and 7, though it depends really on what's going on. fresh out of the vault, they barely slept due to the stress of not knowing what was going on. even when simms gave them the key to the house in megaton, they were just. too stressed. the best sleep they had was honestly the two weeks they were out after project purity came online and knocked them out skdjdkdk.
dogs or cats: dogs. they haven't had the chance to meet a cat 😭 but even if they did, i imagine they'd be a dog person solely bc of dogmeat.
dream trip: i would say space but... they did that. and it was hell (shoutout mothership zeta; forever one of my top dlcs ever). they'd probably just like to go anywhere! there's a big world out there that they've been so sheltered from, and everything they've seen so far has been so fascinating.
number of blankets: in the vault, it was two. outside of the vault, it was one if they were lucky.
random fact: tomo has a ballpoint stick-and-poke tattoo that reads XXI : VI, the roman numerals for revelations 21:6. it's on their collarbone, above their heart, as a little homage to their mother.

I did a quick un-betaed prompt:
Diana at the Door:
Of all her ex-husbands, Fox Mulder was her favorite. He was young when she met him; eager, malleable. Bright and forthright, he was also dogged and insatiable — if she led him to the right path, he would follow it like a hound down a trail. He was intelligent, kind, and prone to pussy hypnosis. Easily distracted. That he was also a generous lover that could last for days was a bonus she wasn’t about to question.
When the Smoker had recalled her back to the States, she had been confident she would be able to manipulate the situation back on track as she always had, but Fox’s partner had proven to be a surprisingly stubborn obstacle, seeing through Diana’s machinations like an X-ray through soft tissue. Diana had thought the woman had been handled several years before — run through the Project’s standard pump-and-dump operation when she became problematic — lending the Project an influx of fresh DNA while at the same time being eliminated had seemed a tidy solution at the time. When the woman had survived, Diana was surprised but unbothered, knowing the cancer fail-safe would soon resolve the matter. And then the Smoker — supine and (she could only imagine) lovesick — had capitulated to Fox’s weak threats and now needed Diana to come in and clean up his mess. She had no idea what the two men saw in the diminutive little priss, but she was confident that she could at least distract Fox long enough to make him temporarily forget. She had it on good authority that Agent Scully was drawn to authoritative father figures, and Fox Mulder – particularly under the spell of Diana Fowley’s time-tested and humbling cunt – was not the young woman’s type. It would be easy, she thought. It might even be fun.
She ascended the concrete steps of his building on Hegel Place with sharp, gritty clicks, the heels she’d chosen for the evening an inch higher than normal. Mulder was a tit man, but Diana had legs to her neck and men were easily distracted. Case in point the neighbor who held open the door for her, his Adam’s apple bobbing when she purred a throaty thank-you. In the elevator, she shifted her overcoat over the sweater she wore, the cashmere as soft as the lips that awaited her three floors up. She applied one last smear of lipstick and pressed the button for 4.
In her hand was a bottle of syrah she intended to use to move things along. Personally, she preferred the smoky bite of Scotch or the cold fizz of champagne, but those two choices sent a social message, and she needed Mulder to think that she was just dropping by. Syrah said it was a long Wednesday at the office. After a glass, it also said and it could be a great Thursday morning if you wanted.
The elevator doors opened and she emerged into the hallway gloom, the leather toes of her shoes scuffing on the chunky hexagonal tile as she walked. She could practically feel his large, rough hands on her skin already, his right hand callused from keeping up his firearm qualifications, a thing they used to do together. Something about the sharp prick of cordite in the air was like an aphrodisiac, and she would pull him into the women’s locker room with the ear muffs still around his neck and take him into her mouth like she was attending to a popsicle on a hot day. Her blood thrummed as she walked, and she was practically panting by the time she pulled up in front of his door, the thick brass 42 reflecting the red stain of her mouth. She knocked.
She had no real concern that he wouldn’t be home – his social calendar wasn’t exactly filled with obligations, but when he didn’t answer right away, she began to wonder if she should have sent a toady ahead to tail him home from work. Then again, he likely was inside, and had just fallen asleep on his couch. She knocked again, with a little more vigor. A moment later she heard approaching footsteps from the other side of the door and tried to curtail the cat-like grin that she could feel rising up the skin of her cheeks. Calm, open face, Diana, she reminded herself. You have a part to play.
The door swung open a moment later and she once again had to police her own features. She’d expected him to answer the door in the same clothes he’d worn to the office, perhaps minus the tie and in a pair of holey socks, but he was barefoot and bare-chested, wearing a pair of quickly thrown-on athletic shorts that still had one pocket hanging limply down, inside-out. His hair was tousled and his eyes were bright.
“Diana,” he said, with more surprise and less pleasure than she was expecting. “What are you doing here?”
She put on a face of harangued amity and held up the bottle of wine.
“It’s been a shit day,” she said, making sure her voice didn’t yet sound too seductive. “I was in the neighborhood and thought maybe I’d find a compassionate ear?” She was about to ask if she could come in, but on impulse, she smiled at him and ducked under his arm and into the apartment. She found the old adage it’s better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission worked well in these kinds of situations. She put on a mask of good humor, expecting him to at least give her a sympathetic half-grin. “I can’t imagine you had a better one out there in Kersh’s bullpen. If you have clean glasses, I can open this thing with my shoe.”
But he didn’t grin. In fact, he threw a worried look over his shoulder and crossed his arms in front of his chest, his face stern in the dim light of his fish tank.
“Fox?” she said, letting a husky lisp slip into her voice. “Is everything all right?”
Other than his attitude, something was off within the atmosphere of the space – his apartment hadn’t changed much at all since she’d left him, but there was a verging energy in the air and it didn’t smell the same. She couldn’t pinpoint exactly how until the woman rounded the corner from the kitchen holding a yellow box of Triscuits and wearing nothing but one of Mulder’s dress shirts that was so billowing and large on her that the crepey material fell practically to her knees and gaped at the neck so that it showed the soft white curve of one shoulder. And it hit Diana why the apartment didn’t smell the way it had when she’d lived there, or the several times she’d broken in in the years since – it absolutely reeked of the tangy musk of sex.
“Mulder, are these even still good?” the woman said without looking up, still walking forward. She was peering inside the box with a dubious look on her face. “These have been opened and I can’t find an expiration date. Oh!”
The last word was said with surprise, but the look on Dana Scully’s face as she paused in the short hallway leading from Mulder’s kitchen quickly went from shock to shrewd calculation as she swept her gaze over Diana from head to toe, and Diana felt the surge of lust she’d been feeling quickly replaced by the hot burn of humiliation.
“Agent Fowley,” Scully said, crossing her own arms over her chest so that the dress shirt pulled tightly over the bare breasts underneath it. She made no attempt to otherwise cover herself and looked not the least bothered by her own state of undress. “Problems with a case?” Her tone screamed that the woman knew it was anything but.
Diana felt her cheeks redden and she squeezed the neck of the wine bottle she still held tightly.
“Just a social call,” she said, pulling herself up to her full height, and lifting up the wine several inches as though to prove herself. “I thought I might visit with an old friend.” She swallowed thickly.
“Now’s not a good time, is it, Mulder?” Scully said, and finally took her eyes off Diana and flicked them to Diana’s favorite ex.
Mulder swiped his hand under his mouth as if wiping something away and huffed a quiet laugh. “No,” he said, “it’s not.” Mulder turned to Diana and gave her a long look, as if seeing her clearly for the first time. “You should go,” he said quietly, something final in the tone of his voice.
Diana felt the light inside of her dim. She took a halting step back, feeling somehow changed and lessened, powerless.
“I-” she started. “Yes.”
She turned toward the door, her neck hot with embarrassment. The door was still open, light leaking in from the hallway on the polished tops of her fuck-me shoes. She took a deep breath and paused when she heard Scully’s voice.
“Feel free to leave the wine,” the younger agent called out.
Diana turned and looked at Mulder, who had moved to his partner’s side, standing half in front of her protectively. His eyes told her everything she didn’t want to hear. Diana set the syrah on the small table by the doorframe and closed the door behind her.

i haven't mentioned it til now bc i've been having a rough 24 hours and needing space to decompress after such a huge ending to a huge event in my life but we put scruffy (our dog of 13 years) to sleep yesterday. we had the vet come to the home and he was given a large dose of sedative and painkiller beforehand n i've never seen him so comfortable in the past 2 weeks. it was quick and quiet and easy and the whole family even jack (my cat) was there to say bye to him. the vet was very respectful and left as soon as she was finished so we could have some time with him. i helped my father dig his grave up on the hill next to our house so he could still see us through the window and buried him about an hour after his passing with his favourite toys and the blanket he slept on in my mother's room. it's been really rough on all of us but we can finally rest, especially scruffy, he was just in too much pain and there was nothing left to do about it apart from prolong the inevitable; he had a cancerous bone tumour that was compressing his spinal cord and paralysing his back half. there was an option to operate but the specialist clinic said it had been done multiple times but never with success so we opted to take his last few days into our own hands and make him as comfortable and cared for as possible. i'm so worn out

Tagged by @drumlincountry, ok, let’s do this!
What are you currently reading? I’m always reading multiple things, but most actively ‘unto others’ by Elliot Sober and David Sloan Wilson
What’s your favorite movie you saw in theaters this past year? I haven’t gone to the cinema in years, I think the last thing I saw in the cinema was Kingsman the Golden Circle in Oh God 2017. But I’m looking forward to seeing Dungeons and Dragons Honour Among Thieves in the cinema this year!
What do you usually wear? Depends on the weather really! As long as it’s cold enough for it it’s a lot of hand-knit sweaters. In summer it’s simple t-shirts or button ups, usually with floral patterns. In between a lot of long-sleeved button ups, preferably also patterned, with a thin sweater over them, depending. I’ll usually wear stompy boots, leather sneakers, or birkenstocks depending on weather, and a simple bomberjacket in summer or my brown long heavy wintercoat in winter. With my flat cap, of course, but not inside.
How tall are you? 5′10 or 1.78 if you are sensible
What’s your star sign? Do you share a birthday with a celebrity or historical event? I share a birthday with the massacre at Sebrenica during the Bosnian genocide, the reaction to which made it a turning point in that war (NATO got involved, which saved a lot of lives and tankies can stuff it). That makes me a cancer.
Do you go by your name or a nickname? I go by my name, I picked it so I might well use it no?
Did you grow up to be what you wanted to be as a child? Not really, child me wanted jobs that required me to be way less of a klutz than I am.
What’s something you’re good at vs. something you’re bad at? I’m very good at knitting and formal analytic thinking and very bad at understanding dishonesty of all kinds. Unless I can tell from factual evidence that someone is lying, I will most likely keep operating under the assumption that they are acting in good faith
Dog or Cats? Yes
If you draw/write, or create in any way, what's your favourite picture/favourite line/favourite etc. from something you created this past year?
‘“We caught some… spies, I think, your majesty. We’ll bring them downstairs for questioning. We don’t…. we don’t think they are dangerous.”
The taller boys’ expression turned distinctly insulted at that.’
(a fic I’m still working on)
What's something you would like to create content for? I would enjoy making more decorations for my home
What’s something you’re currently obsessed with? Longform Dresden Files fanfic from 2013. Don’t ask.
What’s a hidden talent of yours? A lot of people need a surprisingly long time to figure out I have a sense of humour
Are you religious? Yeah
Are you in a relationship? Nope. Friends are good though, including those with benefits.
What’s something you wish to have at this moment? The ability to go to sleep directly after going to bed

When I have a big problem I look at my dogs or cats and learn from them. Everything is scaled down. Even when I had cancer and was operated on, I learned to stay calm from my kitten. I was not and am not afraid of death, I see it as a natural thing. So when I need advice I look at animals, nature, clouds. We human beings often complicate our lives and make everything more complicated and difficult but instead we can remain calm like a lizard or humble like a sparrow or shout like a gorilla, depending on the case. I had problems expressing my anger because I was abused as a child, from 4 to 10 years old, and therefore I drew and still today I continue to vent my black anger with painting. But for everything else I dance and sing and do what an animal does following its own nature. I am a Therian. 😁
Io quando ho un problema grande guardo i miei cani o i miei gatti e imparo da loro.
Ogni cosa viene ridimensionata. Persino quando ho avuto il tumore e sono stata operata ho imparato a stare serena dalla mia gattina. Io non avevo e non ho paura della morte, la vedo come una cosa naturale.
Perciò quando ho bisogno di un consiglio guardo gli animali, la natura, le nuvole. Noi esseri umani ci complichiamo spesso la vita e rendiamo tutto più complicato e difficile ma invece si può restare calmi come una lucertola o umili come un passero oppure gridare come un gorilla, a seconda dei casi.
Io ho avuto oroblemi ad esprimere la mia rabbia perchè ho subito abusi da bambina, da 4 a 10 anni, e quindi io disegnavo e tuttoggi io continuo a sfogare la mia nera rabbia con la pittura. Ma per tutto il resto danzo e canto e faccio quello che un animale fa seguendo la propria natura. Io sono una Therian. 😁

Caring for Companions: Insights into the Veterinary Pain Management Market
Pets hold a special place in our hearts, becoming cherished members of the family. However, like humans, animals can experience pain due to various medical conditions, injuries, or surgical procedures. Veterinary pain management plays a crucial role in ensuring the health, comfort, and well-being of our furry companions. This article explores the significance of veterinary pain management, common pain management techniques, and the evolving landscape of the veterinary pain management market.
Pets, whether dogs, cats, or exotic animals, can experience pain from a variety of sources, including arthritis, dental problems, injuries, surgeries, and chronic diseases. Recognizing and alleviating pain in animals is essential not only for their comfort but also for their overall health and quality of life. Veterinary pain management aims to identify, assess, and manage pain in animals through a combination of pharmacological, non-pharmacological, and integrative approaches.
One of the primary goals of veterinary pain management is to relieve pain and discomfort in animals using safe and effective pain relief medications. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opioids, and local anesthetics are commonly used pharmacological agents in veterinary medicine to manage pain and inflammation in animals. These medications help alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility in animals suffering from conditions such as osteoarthritis, post-operative pain, and cancer-related pain.
Request the sample copy of report @ https://www.globalinsightservices.com/request-sample/GIS24930
In addition to pharmacological interventions, veterinary pain management may also involve non-pharmacological approaches such as physical therapy, acupuncture, laser therapy, massage, and therapeutic exercises. These complementary therapies can help reduce pain, improve muscle strength and flexibility, and enhance the overall well-being of animals undergoing rehabilitation or palliative care.
Furthermore, advances in veterinary medicine have led to the development of innovative pain management techniques and modalities tailored to the specific needs of different animal species and medical conditions. Minimally invasive procedures such as nerve blocks, epidural anesthesia, and intra-articular injections are increasingly used in veterinary practice to provide targeted pain relief with minimal side effects and faster recovery times.
The veterinary pain management market serves a wide range of stakeholders, including veterinary clinics, animal hospitals, pet owners, and pharmaceutical companies, where products and services related to pain management are in demand. With the growing awareness of animal welfare and the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and age-related conditions in pets, the demand for veterinary pain management solutions is expected to rise.
Moreover, the veterinary pain management market is driven by factors such as advancements in veterinary anesthesia and analgesia, increasing pet ownership and spending on veterinary care, and the growing emphasis on pain assessment and management guidelines in veterinary practice. Veterinarians and pet owners are increasingly recognizing the importance of proactive pain management in animals, leading to greater adoption of pain relief medications and therapies in veterinary medicine.
In conclusion, veterinary pain management plays a crucial role in ensuring the health, comfort, and quality of life of our beloved pets. By providing effective pain relief and supportive care, veterinary professionals can alleviate suffering, promote healing, and enhance the bond between pets and their owners. As the veterinary pain management market continues to evolve, there are opportunities for innovation, collaboration, and investment in research and development to improve pain management outcomes and standards of care for animals worldwide.
