My book club is reading Paladin’s Grace (highly recommend) and the main lady owns a civet for use in perfume making.

We’re getting ready for bed when my beloved told me I should draw a civet for them because they sound cute.

“You can just look them up,” I suggested.

“Wait, they’re real? She describes it as a weasel cat!”

“Yeah no, it’s a real animal.”

My beloved furiously googled while meandering back into the bathroom and then from the other room exclaimed, “NO ONE SHOULD OWN THIS.”

Then whispered, “They’re so cute though.”

Just had a dream in which I saw the coolest animal. It was like an axolotl the size of a crocodile that moved kinda like a cat. There was darker pink spotting ala jaguar and I didn’t get to see its face as it was moving away but dang I wish I’d seen more of it. Gonna have another goose with moth wings and nightweasel situation.

Filed under ramblies it was a sex dream so this cool animal was not even a highlight but when I woke up I was like damn what was that dream dreams

I came up to tell my beloved some heartfelt shit about how they carried the load for me so much when my illness was at its worst and even though there’s a lot on my plate right now it’s nothing they put there and it’s okay and then I saw their nose twitch and we both stared silently into each others eyes while I watched them try to figure out what treat I had just eaten that they could faintly smell on my breath.

Filed under ramblies funny life is hard I wanted a peanut butter treat they thought I’d been snacking on sesame mochi ice cream but it’s too cold and the freezer is fucked which is one of the things on my plate since we lost $200 of food and I am hounding them to comp me

400,000 new cases of tuberculosis (TB) were estimated to have been prevented by these rats, whose sense of smell would make a bloodhound take notice. As the number-one killer among infectious diseases worldwide, many of those 400,000 can be translated into lives saved.

“Not only are we saving people’s lives, but we’re also changing these perspectives and raising awareness and appreciation for something as lowly as a rat,” said Cindy Fast, a behavioral neuroscientist who coaches the rodents for the nonprofit APOPO.

“Because our rats are our colleagues, and we really do see them as heroes.”

APOPO uses giant pouched rates to sniff out traces of TB in the saliva of patients. In parts of Tanzania, a saliva smear test under a microscope by a human may only be 20-40% effective at detecting TB.

By contrast, a giant pouched rat like Ms. Carolina, a now-retired service rat who worked for APOPO for 7 years, raised the rates of detection on TB samples by 40% in the clinic where she worked.

It would take 4 days for scientists to analyze the number of samples that Carolina could screen in 20 minutes. For that reason, when Carolina retired last November, a party was thrown at the clinic in her honor, and she was given a cake.

TB is sometimes thought of as a thing of the past—a disease for which doctors used to prescribe “dry air,” leading modern humors to muse at the antiquated, pre-antibiotic medical advice.

But it remains the number-one cause of death globally from a single infectious pathogen, and Tefera Agizew, a physician and APOPO’s head of tuberculosis, told National Geographic that once people see what the nonprofit’s rodents can do to slow the spread, they “fall in love with them.”

3,000 times in her career did Carolina detect one of the six volatile compounds that can be used to identify Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and she got a hero’s send off to a special compound to live out the rest of her days with her closet friend and sniffer colleague Gilbert, in a shaded enclosure dubbed “Rat Florida.”

“We’ve made special little rat-friendly carrot cakes with little peanuts and things on it that the rat would enjoy,” Fast said. “Then we all stand around and we clap, and we give three cheers, hip hip hooray for the hero, and celebrate together. It’s really a touching moment.”

Something I feel like @sizzlingsandwichperfection-blog might be interested to see! Yay rats!

There is a word I’m not allowed to use. I love it. I love it so much. But my darling beloved wife hates it with a fiery passion.

I came across it from Anne Lister’s diary, where she says that she would “grubble under women’s skirts” and honestly. The word perfectly encapsulates the fumbling feeling of fighting your way through layers of fabric to reach the promised pussy land.

However the word has been forbidden, reviled from the first moment my beloved heard it. They shuddered and it’s truly one of the only restrictions they’ve ever placed on my vocabulary so I don’t say it. But I do think it, on occasion.

Sometimes the word will pop into my head and I will think it too hard and my wife will turn and glare at me and accuse, “I know you’re thinking it!”

“But I didn’t say it!” I protest. But they’re always right. Even with no context they always know when I’m thinking it.

Today I told my wife, “I shared the unmentionable word with Astrid today and she quite enjoyed it. She repeated it several times.”

They bellowed liked a dying wildebeest and said, “I can go months without remembering that word exists and then it comes up again. It’s so disgusting, it’s what Sméagol would do on the ground digging for worms!”

I was laughing and protested, “It sounds like fighting through skirts, the groping around.”

“No! That is something that happens in the muck and the filth. It’s negative sexy.

“Bet you’re gonna take to Tumblr and share it and some people are gonna be like, ‘Oh what a great word! We should definitely use that in our lexicon. Top tier word!’ And you know what? THEYRE WRONG. GARBAGE WORD. GROSS.”

I listened to their impassioned hatred while cuddled in their arms and radiated love at them and remorse for having reminded them about the existence of grubbling. But now you get to hear about it. As a treat.

How do you feel?

I love grubble

I hate grubble

I feel grubble is evocative but it’s not sexy

Honestly fascinating that the hate is so low.

Hello, I am a very curious otter likerrrrr I was wondering, do you have anything with Giant Amazon River Otters? It’s cool if no

I Love the giant Amazon river otters but they look. Terrifying. Most of my designs lean cute so I do have some otters to enjoy but not those specific ones.

If I made something what do you picture? Like a painting or a pattern?

Edit: oh the otters I have just posted from the queue that makes sense.

Filed under ask ffs they are extremely badass and I love them but they do look like they’ve seen incomprehensible horrors beyond our understanding
