My arm is indefinitely injured and there is no clear treatment in sight. I have been unable to draw for a year, and I have no way to make money due to this on top of my other health issues :( Please consider helping me out by donating to my Ko-fi or ordering some of my work on my Redbubble, thank you!

New Anti-Abortion Group In My Area

It’s called “Life Options Green Hills” on Facebook, and its website is lifeoptionsgreenhills(dot)com. Could you imagine if someone signed

LIFEOPTIONSGREENHILLS@GMAIL.COM 

up for newsletters? I couldn’t wrap my head around it if the phone number

1-660-358-1378

were to receive robocalls or offers. I just could not imagine if anyone annoyed them or sent them things they did not ask for or otherwise made unsolicited communications with Life Options. Positively inconceivable.

People who try to tell me things are ‘not that deep’ fundamentally misunderstand me, I am not a fish desperately in search of the ocean, I am a magpie that roves the canons, searching for shiny things to put in my nest. Whether or not it actually is given deep narrative weight by canon itself is of secondary importance to the fact that it has the potential to be interesting, and thus, I covet it.

“It’s not that deep”

Maybe not originally, but the ground is soft and I’m ready to dig.

“The ground is soft and I’m ready to dig” is the best description of the fanfic attitude I’ve ever seen.

No no no, fanfic isn’t digging a hole, it’s planting seeds.

Sometimes the soil is craggy and rough, sometimes it’s fertile and gentle, and sometimes it’s seemingly not even capable of growing plants. Writers take that soil and create beautiful gardens from it.

Fanfic writers look at the gardens of others and think “you know, what if it was different?”. Sometimes they just change one or two things, sometimes they put special emphasis on a specific part of the garden, and sometimes they overhaul the whole thing while keeping some of the basic elements. But in the end, we’re still growing our own gardens, from simple to beautiful.

No bragging, just 100% floored and grateful. Work hard, maintain a positive attitude, and believe that anything can happen.

So I reblogged this exactly a week ago because I thought it was funny and uh lo and behold, a family friend wrote me a big ol’ check just to help me out of a tough financial spot AND my bank refunded me $32 for fees they’d originally taken out. SO UH YEAH. Reblogging this again in hopes that it brings equally good fortune to my followers.

10 Steps To Care For Your Hamster (long post!)

1. Do not keep them in pairs. Hamsters are loners - keeping them together often results in stress, fighting, injuries and death. They are very happy alone. 

________________________________________________

2. Minimum cage size

  • dwarf hamsters: 30 x 20 x 20 inches (80x50x50cm);
  • bigger hamsters: 40 x 20 x 20 inches (100x50x50cm)!

NOT like this: 

  • Living in cages like this for them is like a human living in an elevator - a lot too small and even dangerous! 
  • For them it feels like this:
  • Behavior like this is a signal for stress because the cage is too small or that they need more bedding:

Better:

________________________________________________

3. Your hamster (always!) needs a hamster wheel - and it must be a lot bigger than you might think! 

  • Hamster must be able to run with a completely straight back
  • on a closed surface
  • with a closed back wall! 

NOT like this: 

Results of those wheels are: spine problems, backache, stress, injuries! 

  • Minimum wheel size for dwarf hamsters: 9-10 inches. 
  • Minimum wheel size for bigger hamsters: 12 inches! 

Better: 

________________________________________________

4. Do not buy them plastic tubes (at all): 

Those tubes are not suitable at all: Hamsters get stuck or suffocate in them easily. 

________________________________________________

5. Your hamster needs enough bedding to dig and build tunnels.

NOT like this:  

Better: 

Your hamster will be extremely happy and dig around and build tunnels all day (night). 

A study also found out that (golden) hamsters need up to 12-36 inches of bedding, so just do your best do give them the highest amount of bedding possible. :)

________________________________________________

6. The less plastic the better! 

NOT like this:

  • Plastic gets swallowed, splinters, can injure or even kill your hamster. 

Better: 

________________________________________________

7. Hamsters ALWAYS need a sand bath.

Hamsters love rolling around in the sand, for them it’s like showering. How would you feel without a shower? 

  • You can use those little baths as toilets, but you still need a bigger sand bath!

Better:

________________________________________________

8. Hamsters need a house with at least 2 or more chambers to store food, sleep etc. Also make sure that your hamster does have enough hiding places like coconuts, small houses, toilet rolls! 

________________________________________________

9. Do use unperfumed toilet paper for nesting material, don’t use “hamster wool” -> it can tangle around a limb and seriously hurt and even kill your hamster! 

NOT like this: 

________________________________________________

10. Never ever ever put your hamster or any animal in a hamster ball. 

They can’t get out, might suffocate or panic, might run against furniture and seriously injure themselves. The ventilation is terrible, your hamster can’t see/smell/hear enough or use any of their senses properly.

In some countries they even discuss about banning those by law

Even if you think that “your hamster has fun in it” - please don’t use them! 

_______________________________________________________

Please reblog and spread this information.

Pet stores often are very misinformed and sell terrible cages and have little to no idea how to keep a happy hamster - please be careful when trusting them. In the end they often just want to make money - and the hamsters suffer. 

Please adopt, not buy hamsters - there are too many hamsters in this world that we need any more breeding.

Much like with bettas, there’s a lot of companies out there making a huge profit on habitats that are completely unsuitable for your pets, and counting on consumer ignorance.

Kindness to animals includes knowing exactly what your companion critters need, and what can hurt them or make them uncomfortable.

If you’re going to have a pet, care for it correctly.

How to get Riri Williams into the MCU

Since Tony is dead, he can’t really have the mentor relationship with Riri (currently a complete stranger) that he had in the comics, and that is incredibly important for her story to work. And if she was retconned into having an offscreen/unmentioned relationship with him (even though they are currently complete strangers with absolutely no connection), it wouldn’t go down well.

So what if the MCU went a different route?

Riri Williams, niece, goddaughter, and and a much beloved pain in the ass of one Colonel James Rhodes.

Introduce her as Rhodey’s niece in the War Machine TV show that is rumored, and develop their relationship. And suddenly, it’s perfectly plausible that she also knew Tony (because of course Tony is going to know his best friend’s niece/goddaughter).

Riri always looked up to both Uncle Jim and “Uncle Tones”, and when she was a child she had dreams of building her own suit when she grew older. Of working with Iron Man and War Machine. To stand side by side with her heroes.

But then she “died” during Thanos’ snap when she was 9 years old.

And a few days after coming back to the joyful tears of her parents, Uncle Jim came to visit… looking older, more worn, and sadder than she had ever seen him. And without Uncle Tones with him.

And that’s when she learned that Uncle Tones had died to bring her back to life… That’s when she learned that she had a new “cousin” in Morgan Stark…

That’s when she found herself a new dream to work towards.

Standing side by side with her uncle’s and heroes would have been amazing, but now she wants to stand proudly in their footsteps. Now she wants to be their legacy, and stand side by side with Morgan.

And so she builds the suit, not just because she can, not just to show off, not just to prove that she’s as smart or smarter than those around her… She builds a suit so that she can stand strong and proud in Uncle Jim’s and Uncle Tone’s footsteps.

And she calls it the Iron Heart, because into that suit she poured every ounce of love she has for her uncles.

And Morgan? Morgan shares Riri’s dream. But when she builds her own suit, Tony’s last words of love echo in her ears when she gives it a name: Iron 3000.

The Iron Heart and the Iron 3000 standing side by side, making Uncle Jim proud, making the world proud, upholding the legacy of heroes, and proving that anybody can be a hero.

AND THEN WE GET ANOTHER GENERATION OF::

“You are literally a disaster and would perish without me here”

“RiRi! Nooooooo it’s just a case of red bull it’s totally fine! It won’t even give me heart palpitations, watch. I’m fine.”

And Rhodey in the background “YES IT WILL! RIRI DONT YOU LET MORGAN DRINK THAT SHE WILL LITERALLY EXPLODE!

And::

“Oh god, we have Tony Stark’s kid and Colonel Rhodes niece applying for MIT”

“Uh sir? No offense but this institution barely survived the first Stark and Rhodes? I honestly don’t think we’ll survive a second round???”
