This, Okay, All Of This!

Still a good 😺

Hi.. my name is Khloe the Cat.

I am a 3 year old Maine Coon mix that came from an extremely abusive home. They neglected to feed me properly and I’m extremely overweight with diabetes. Here I will be chronicling my journey with my new family and posting it on Tumblr. I’d love if everyone could boost this post to let people know there’s a new cat in town 🥹

But also it means that sometimes we don't even register the body sensation if we're doing something that has all our attention.

For years I would look at posts and questionnaires about neurodivergence that takes about being so focused on something that you forgot to eat and be like, "Couldn't be me. Being hungry is so uncomfortable! Your stomach is growling and cramping? How do you ignore that?"

Then someone informed me that neurotypical people have a whole bunch of "hungry" sensations before they get to that point.....

Now this doesn't translate directly for emails, but a lot of it does. If you get an email about something concerning, DON'T REPLY BACK! Double check the sender and then go to the website or whatever and check on it through that, not the site the email sent.

Hey so fun new scam just dropped! I got a call earlier today from someone spoofing the local police department's desk number, asking me if there was a reason I'd missed my jury summons this morning.

Friends, I had not received a jury summons for this month. Which I told him, at which point his previously clear diction suddenly turned into a rapid mumble, only becoming clear for scary words like 'federal' and then asking to confirm my address, at which point I hung up and decided to call the police department later.

When I called the police department the desk officer sounded so tired y'all. All I had to say was "Hey I got a call earlier saying I missed jury duty this morning?" and she immediately sighed and told me that yes it was a scam that was going around and thanked me for calling to confirm.

So this is your periodic reminder that law enforcement agencies will not call you to tell you that you're in trouble. If you need to pay a fine of some sort they will mail you a physical invoice. Anyone calling you saying they're from the police or any other law enforcement organization (up to the CIA and yes I have heard of scammers attempting to impersonate CIA agents over the phone) who then tries to get financial information from you over the phone is a scammer.

I know I actually bang on about this a weird amount, but it is my fervent hope that the information will stick in peoples' brains if they get randomly selected for the adrenaline spike lottery. Scammers use scary words to get you to panic in order to shut down your critical thinking, and if even one person's brain spits out "Tumblr user waterhobbit said the cops/CIA/federal marshalls don't call about this shit" before their bank account routing number is in the hands of assholes I will consider it a job well done.

🤣🤣🤣😂

OP made the post unrebloggable but said it's fine to screenshot and I'm in love with this

As an ace myself, yes.

Reblog if you think asexuality is a legitimate sexuality.

I'm trying to prove something.

I have always been fascinated with history but this absolutely shows that we're still learning about it even today.🌍🌎🌏

I have a folder called Time is a Flat Circle in which I collect evidence of humanity. Here is most of them.

Yes, please.

at some point you have to realize that you actually have to read to understand the nuance of anything. we as a society are obsessed with summarization, likely as a result of the speed demanded by capital. from headlines to social media (twitter being especially egregious with the character limit), people take in fragments of knowledge and run with them, twisting their meaning into a kaleidoscope that dilutes the message into nothing. yes, brevity is good, but sometimes the message, even when communicated with utmost brevity, requires a 300 page book. sorry.

I agree!

!!!!!¡¡!¡!! That takes massive talent and training!!¡!!

I always thought that was why it was called studying magic???¿???

Fucked up how humanity discovered electricity and radiation and made machines and learned to make airplanes and cured diseases and our takeaway isnt that "Some Magic Is Real And Here's Why", but that magic is fake this is big boy science and it's totally not magical
