Possibly the greatest repost of all time. From Foothills Humane in Columbus, NC:

Seven year old Alex recently lost his lifelong companion and best friend, Mama Kitty. They were very bonded and when she suddenly passed Alex grieved very much.

Yesterday, Alex and his mom adopted a kitten from our ice cream litter named Mint. Mint was renamed Schmoo aka Schmoopy Magoo aka Schmoops Magoops. Alex’s mom told us that he immediately began to experience some major healing in short time thanks to the little fuzzbucket. Anytime Alex cries, Schmoo runs over and crawls in his lap. On the car ride home, Alex told his mom “I think Mama Kitty’s spirit sent Schmoopy a message on how to make us feel loved.” ❤️

⁣⁣Alex’s mom says that “we can grieve for our lost companions and still keep an open heart and home for another critter in need. We aren’t replacing them - but rather, offering their spot to a pet that may not otherwise have a chance. They offer in return much more support in grief than we give them credit for, too.” ❤️⁣

It’s over.

as my intrusive thoughts get better, it's been interesting to watch how my brain sort of. converses with itself.

my brain, at 11pm, just for the heck of it: hey remember that cringeworthy time in high school when you--

the rest of my mental landscape, already bored af w/ this shit: yes we remember, we remember better than you, but right now we are watching Last Airbender so your opinion has been fucking vetoed, die mad about it

Meant to be <3

Hey! Californian here! Please do not come here for VidCon.

Please. The number of Covid cases here has spiked with kids going back to school, and the Delta variant is hitting us hard. Conventions like VidCon are not worth it. Simply not. To see your favorite streamer IRL is not worth the huge risk to yourself and other people.

Theres Youtube videos, there’s Twitch vods, there’s other ways to see your favorite streamer and to get their content that are so much safer than coming to this huge convention just to see them in 3-D. It’s just not worth it. Conventions like this are not safe to be having while still in the midst of a Global Pandemic. It’s a superspreader event, and people will inevitably get sick.

It is so irresponsible of people to even be letting the convention happen this year. Even if you are vaccinated, even if you think you’re safe, it’s not worth it. If not for yourself, think of all the other people. All the other people who could get sick, all the people who could be carrying and spreading this virus, or the (more contagious!!) Delta variant.

Please. Do not come to VidCon. Do not encourage your friends to come. There will be other opportunities to see content creators when it is safer, and when there are not thousands of lives at risk.

I know I’ve said it a bunch, but I cannot emphasize it enough: VidCon is not worth it.

Please stay safe.
