Hi Everyone This Is Grandma

went to the pub for a drink on my first real day off in over a week and watched the girl behind the bar drop the entire cash drawer on the floor in the middle of the rush and then just stare at it at her feet for like a solid two minutes

reblog this if you're okay with booping spams please !!

Petitions - UK Government and Parliament

Petition: Do not stop transgender people from receiving care in mainstream hospital wards

The previous government proposed changes to the NHS constitution which would mean transgender hospital patients in England may not be treate

Well fucks? Get to it!

Okay, so a thought that has been rattling around for a bit and I need to share. Do the Takers also take the memories and personality of the bodies they possess or do they observe how they act before proceeding? I haven't seen any mention or talks about sudden changed in personality or memory loss, not even mentioned as something cats realized in hindsight. I feel like I'm on to something and if I am, that just makes everything more terrifying in my eyes.

Very good point! In the beginning they didn't, which is another reason they couldn't stay hidden— but after one or two were outed because they acted too different too suddenly they adapted and changed.

Takers went after elderly, sick or kittens, a group that if they withdrew for a while and slowly started to change personalities it wasn't as easy to catch. They just became calmer and quieter. But that obviously didn't last because their bodies didn't age.

I want to be known: the Takers adapt very very fast! 2 got figured out because they acted too different too fast? Everyone changes the game. Can't take the usual game because it's noticeable? We go after the sick then.

The Takers nowadays do observe for a bit (a bit being hours but never more than a day), they also take context clues from the cats around them— but ultimately they're withdrawn and quiet if they did a full body take. The patchwork takers have no such boundaries, they consider themselves as new and act however they please.

The reason Cicada was discovered was because she was walking around with a broken back and because she couldn't hold a conversation without a grin. The living Cicada was soft and gentle, she also took her health very seriously. So she was an easy spot.

Fun thing that will never be brought up in the story but people might like to know!

Glowfern died naturally on her way home. Takers are not gentle, they can't sufficiently kill a cat without leaving marks, overkilling, or doing something that a normal cat wouldn't just walk off. Glowfern had been stalked by a Taker periodically in her time in Chasingclan. She never saw it but she did feel it, this is why she left earlier than she had planned. She never saw the Taker till near the rift, in which it couldn't hide in the shorter grass — she got so scared that she messed up her jump over the rift and broke her neck. The Taker simply took the opportunity presented.

Culture is so obsessed with the idea of lone geniuses that it doesn't really appreciate that most of the progress of science (and likely every other discipline) occurs collaboratively, in babysteps, and usually through a lot very tedious, utterly unsexy, work.

the poor man's fandom consumption

im doing it alone…doing it scared…but im doing it

I went in the code again and saw the new Boop paws were vectors this time, so I converted them into some good sized pngs that are a little easier to work.
