Best Kitty

Sammy was the best kitty

He came into our lives as an orphaned little ball of fluff in need of a forever home, and left us a home that is forever his. He was the purrsonification of comfort and love, willing and ready to follow me anywhere he saw me going, full of big purrs and cuddles, and always ready to groom his family with warm licks.

We will miss you. The world is made so much darker with your passing, and we must console ourselves with the knowledge you are beyond all suffering, and we have 14 wonderful years of you to hold onto. May this ensure that some small part of the internet remain forever Samwise.

Reblogging more Samwise!

evillordzog

Always reblog Samwise!

Thank you to everyone who’s interacted with this so far. The small kindnesses of that moment spent acknowledging him and how much he was loved and mattered means so much to us.

@omgpurplefattie and @turgidturnip, you in particular have made us smile by welcoming him back

Yesterday marked a year since Sammy died.

I spent yesterday cleaning up the garden around where we buried him, putting white flowers on his grave, then working on a project in the sunlight next to him.

I’m still gutted that my best friend was taken from this world, that his cuddles and his purrs now only exist in fallible human memory. My solace is that it was his death that led me to taking such a deep interest in taking care of those I affectionately refer to as my idiot street children, and because of that I was able to save Star.

Oh Sammy, you’ll always be missed, always be loved. Thank you so much for being part of my life, and I’m so sorry you weren’t in it longer.

I don’t believe in the Rainbow Bridge, but I so hope I meet you there.

Here's uBlock Origin's official guide to bypassing youtube's anti-adblock popups, updated weekly. Please share widely. Don't reward google for their predatory anti-consumer bullshit

To summarize: 1. Get uBlock Origin and make sure it's updated to the latest version. 2. Click on the gear icon to get to the dashboard, go to "Filter lists", and make sure that "uBlock filters - Quick fixes" is up to date

Repeat those steps any time you get another popup (google and uBlock are having an arms race right now so it might stop working at any moment), and if you have any more problems, read the reddit thread for troubleshooting advice

This is also uBlockOrigin's guide to reporting bugs in their anti-anti-adblock, a lot of it is about removing confounding factors so uBO knows that there isn't a third party causing an issue.

“It is a sacrilege, a crime, a villainy to hold that such a marriage is binding. I say that these monstrous laws of yours will bring a curse upon the land—Heaven will not let such wickedness endure.”

Tbh I don’t think Arthur Conan Doyle gets enough credit for featuring domestic abuse survivors in his works, to the point of overlooking or justifying murder, in a time when it was seen as a Private Matter that outsiders shouldn’t be nosey about. Giving voice to a woman to call out the lack of a woman’s rights to be freed from an abusive marriage is a pretty big deal, and Holmes validating and supporting it each and every time is a purposeful authorial choice.

Others have posted about how it’s very likely that, as a doctor, ACD would be privy to all sorts of ugly secrets from “those isolated country manors” as described in The Copper Beeches—but even if he weren’t, there’s certainly a statement being made via his stories.

The Tolkien society is mad that someone used an image they have a copyright on because they bought the physical copy and God fuck the Tolkien society so hard.

I think that Sunnydale can largely thank Anya for not having a lot more incidents of chaotic inexperienced magic users (e.g. the Trio) causing mayhem. Why? Well, when Giles sold Glory 2 items that could be used for a dangerous spell, she called him out, basically asking why he would sell anyone such a dangerous combo. This indicates that Anya is at least generally aware of what shouldn't be sold to customers or what to watch out for, and implies she wouldn't have sold Glory the items. Furthermore, when the gang is under the Tabula Rasa spell, we saw that an amnesiac version of Anya was able to perform potentially dangerous spells using only a single spell book, including conjuring rabbits and a sentient skeleton (that Giles sword fights with). This indicates it would be entirely possible for people with no idea what they're doing to perform irresponsible magic fairly easily.

Basically, Anya prevented a large amount of even more crazy whacky things from happening in Sunnydale

We needed scenes of Anya calling Buffy and saying "Someone just bought these dangerous items and he was clearly a vampire intent on ending the world, you should go stake them"

Buffy "Why did you make the sale if you knew this could end the world??"

Anya "I jacked up the price and got him to pay triple. I mean, he thought he was about to end the world so he wasn't going to care if I took all his money. Now go kill him before he does the spell, this is your sacred calling"
