Little boxes! My grandmother started my collection with her gift of a small gumball machine-shaped box with little colorful wooden balls inside for gumballs. I became obsessed with tiny versions of big things and haven't looked back! Now I have around 20 various-shaped tiny boxes (safely stored away in a much larger box).

I killed a wasp today and I still feel nauseous with guilt about it. When I was a kid I accidentally peed on a wasp nest (how I got there is a-whole-nother story) and now when I see one it's like my body responds before my brain can. Stinging insects in general haven't liked my existence and I might be a horrible legend to wasps.

My cat popped it once, so it seemed injured, but I feel I could've scooped it outside instead of losing dignity points and attacking it like a banshee...

I like to ask every day, but I usually just get one word answers and then sometimes they'll ask how my day was. One comment here has a totally different perspective on that question, though, and it's got me thinking maybe they just don't like it.

Well, he certainly does look in charge

It's hard to have true perspective on what it means to be an American with my limited travel. I've never been out of the country. I've been to most southern states, but live in the west coast now (much prefer it here) and am very aware of my bubble. It doesn't take interaction from people living in countries with free healthcare and great work reform to know that our shit is fucked, though. Proud - not yet. Determined to make this a better place - yes.

on Full name: Coal Hole · c/cat · 2 pts · 3y

He was probably a 5-6th generation feral kitten born into the colony of strays on my grandparents' property. His mom hid her litter under the hood of my Papa's truck, he didn't know and drove the truck - unfortunately all but Coal Hole overheated and passed away. He was only 1-2 weeks old, and I took him to the vet but all they could tell me is that he would probably be a difficult housecat due to his background lmao she wasn't wrong, but he's completely worth it.
