(he was made by my friend Teta and you can find her maker’s page here. also anytime you mention Christmas Squid you have to sing the song, it’s a House Rule)
This is the Best holiday decoration ever.
Best Christmas thing ever. I don’t decorate for Christmas, but if I did, I’d decorate with a festive cephalopod.
ever notice that the mean voice in ur head that insults u is awful confident for something thats literally never done anything in its life except be mean to you… like… one of us is pathetic and its not me buddy… get a hobby… yikes
this is Nepenthes ampullaria, and they actually do this! they sit on the forest floor and eat leaf litter that falls into their pitchers, making them technically detritivores from our petty human meat-eating point of view.
I’ve been homeless for over two months now. I made the journey back down to the Central coast to be closer to friends, but promises of temporary shelter have completely fallen through. I’m now homeless in a county that has strict laws against homelessness. I can’t afford to pay a fine or go to jail.
If you could please donate to my Venmo @Candice-S-4 to help put me up for a couple of nights in a cheap hotel I would be forever grateful. I just need a safe space to stay in so that I can figure out where to go from here.
Thank you for reading. I hope you have a really good day. 💕
My need to stay in a hotel or in a hostel is incredibly overwhelming at this point. The homeless shelters out here are overcrowded and scary. The weather has been very cold and rainy so sleeping outside isn’t an option. I don’t have clothes to keep me warm.
Any donation, no matter how small, will greatly improve my quality of life. I just need a place to stay even if it’s only temporary so I can get back on my feet. I’m so tired of living in fear every single day.
Hey y’all, I know that Tumblr is kinda going down in flames but I still need help very urgently. I’m struggling very badly and my mental health is very poor. All donations, no matter how small, greatly improve my quality of life.
Please help if you can. I need help so badly right now.
If you’re outside of the US (Venmo is US-only) and would like to help me out, here is a link to my GoFundMe: Help with temporary shelter + food
Actually, in another way I am almost glad that you don’t see the sun much here this time of year. Because that’s where it is in the sky around 2:30 in the afternoon.
It’s full daylight. The dark buildings are totally down to phone camera contrast weirdness. Which might help give an idea of the glare. (Including right in my kitchen window 😎 🙃)
I can’t help it. I still find evening glare in the middle of the afternoon more than a little disconcerting. At least it is past the solstice now, if barely.
