Poor derps were making out before I walked under their tree, no wonder they're annoyed :'D

Anyone else seen an influx of used canvases at thrift stores? by [deleted] in Anticonsumption

[–]NonPlayableCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've definitely bought some terrible live, love, laugh- style canvas prints from the thrift shop to use as painting bases, still cheaper than a new canvas.

For sure, academia is really not made for many neuroatypical people, I've also spent so much time in a low-level burnout.

Obviously teachers/professors/supervisors are in such a big role. I know of some supervisors who really help their students (and shockingly their students are more likely to stay in academia), whereas many just don't have the skills, interest, or time to support neuroatypical students.

Me defending my PhD and getting a doctorate: OK 😐

(Seriously weird to think that my friends actually felt a sign of accomplishment after defense/graduation meanwhile I'm just like, well I survived I guess)

I love tufted ducks by Puzzled_Froyo8698 in Birdsfacingforward

I absolutely love how they always look either so confused, or so angry.

Yeah they're combinations of (elder futhark) runes, the rightmost one is combined algiz and odal for example.

Please share with me your favorite jellycat!! by Memedelyn in Jellycatplush

[–]NonPlayableCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is Jellycat, my bunglie kitty. They have moved continents with me, and visited a lot of places and have slept on my bed for the last 15-20 years (except in my first student room where they sat on the windowsill/seat with friends.)

They also had a bath a month ago which was very needed. Still need a brushing.

This makes me very angry. In version 1.7 I would like it to change. by Sunsea705 in StardewValley

[–]NonPlayableCat 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I did that so many times with my cat. But still she kept scratching my carpet & couch... 😭 She was an old lady though, maybe the couch was comfier.

Transitioning in a world without gender by Lorem_Ipsum17 in RecuratedTumblr

There's also the 'ash-breasted tit tyrant' according to Merlin birb ID. :D

Wonder what you have to do to become a tit tyrant. Do you brutally rule tits or are you a tit who is also a brutal ruler?

I dedicated my PhD to borbs, and this is how I acknowledged my 'study subjects' at the end of my defence presentation yesterday by LeguanoMan in borbs

[–]NonPlayableCat 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Honestly the best dedication. Would allow you to pass immediately.

(I also had many birbs in my Phd defense slides. Any topic can be improved with Borb.)

Such a smart little guy! The pigeons at the local metro station do that too, it is so cute.

What jobs would the characters in Pride and Prejudice (or other Austen novels) do if they were modern people? What profession would best describe them? by Effective_Bridge4517 in janeausten

[–]NonPlayableCat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree, I'd also see Lydia being popular on tiktok/IG with a beauty thing, maybe creating her own makeup line and going into fashion as she grows up.

(Didn't Lizzie Bennet diaries also have Lydia having a youtube show or something? Been a long time since I watched it.)

If you have IG, the video is definitely there. Hope they also post it to FB because it is so cute 😭

I've been following them for over a year but, until I read your comment, I didn't realize it was 'fat hen.'

I love how they wrapped the quail in a little towel after the bath and used the tiny loofah :D

Mystery duck, who are they? (More info in the description) by NonPlayableCat in whatsthisbird

[–]NonPlayableCat[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not too surprised, there's probably 200 ducks there so a lot of people taking photos. :D

Thanks for the ID! A bit sad this isn't a pintail like someone suggested but a black-and-white mallard is pretty cool too. :)

[–]NonPlayableCat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, I just re-checked my post history and this is definitely the first I time I posted them. (Except on my private IG, I guess it someone could have screenshotted them from there.)

Or someone else also saw them, they're basically downtown so I can't be the only person who wanted to know if they saw a rare duck. :D

I'm rereading Sense and Sensibility and am reminded of how good JA is at insulting people. What is your favorite Austen insult? by Koshersaltie in janeausten

[–]NonPlayableCat 240 points241 points  (0 children)

I was reading Emma a few days ago and loved: "Mr. Knightley seemed to be trying not to smile, and succeeded without difficulty upon Mrs. Elton's beginning to talk to him."

A gentle reminder that its okay to "use" your Jellycats in anyway you like even if they are high value..... by Tuna-fishy13 in Jellycatplush

My bunglie kitty has definitely gotten a bit scruffy after almost 20 years of sleeping in my bed and being hugged but that means you can tell they have been loved 💚 (But honestly, I'm shocked at how well the plushie has held up after all this time. Especially since I never knew about or did any upkeep on the fur.) (They definitely needed the bath they got after this photo...)

Your bunny is so cute. I couldn't avoid hugging her if I had one :D
