+1 lmao, no shit, the character i spent five minutes daydreaming up and an hour poring over tumblr to find icons for in order to do some brainless roleplaying isn't worthy of a novel? the hell you say!

dying is still sad. tbh for me i’ve had a few relatives who had lived that long and their passing was still sad even though they lived a full life because they had been a constant pillar in my life, and losing that was hard to come to terms with.

it is a little weird to be emotional devastated by a celeb you have no emotional connection to, but a lot of people do have a parasocial relationship with celebrities and doubly so if they were occupying a very visible part in their childhood.

then how about this

don't own cats

if you're self-aware enough to wonder then it's not you

NA anon I have three characters in games right now and none of them would fall under anything on anon's list. please... a better world is possible...

James Earl Jones was a pioneer in his craft, especially as Black-American who had to overcome a speech impediment in his youth along with the soul crushing racism of Hollywood. He was a source of inspiration for many Black-American actors who grew up enjoying his works. So excuse the fuck out of me for mourning his passing.

I saw that and thought it meant sometimes they can't cook because spoons or whatever.

They still need to make a fucking sandwich either way.

But now the possibility of them sitting there unable to do anything but open the Doordash app when the person who usually cooks for them is busy is weighing heavy on my mind.

then they shouldn't be so slovenly that they attract rodents since that's the only way taxoplasmosis might be an issue with indoor cats.

but why does your mourning require a trigger warning for everyone else? what about "this famous man died" with no other details is going to be triggering for people?

lol this thread reminds me of the hysterical boomers in my life that were convinced my cat, who was born and raised indoors and has never even seen a mouse in her life, was somehow going to murder my hypothetical unborn children with her poop. i guess some people believe taxo just magically manifests in cat poop no matter what.

you don't need to be slovenly to attract rats, you just need a neighbor who is

for me it's the memories attached to the celebs' works. like maybe the movie they were in was something that cheered me up during a dark time or it was a bonding piece with a loved one who is no longer around.

oh shit this is so true lol

i don't think this is an unpopular opinion, i think this is just basic common sense/morals. can't provide, don't get pet/child

da

considering how much literal screaming and hairpulling i see online and in person over people stamping their feet and claiming that they deserve to have a pet/child because 'poor people deserve things too' says otherwise.

i'm a poor person. i live in a shit hole. i would love to get a cat because i love cats and i miss them and i'm lonely and have no real irl friends or social circle. but i'm also an adult and responsible enough to know i don't live in a place that's really good for a pet, i don't have the money to feed myself and a pet, and i certainly don't have money for a vet if anything happens. so as much as i'd love a pet, i acknowledge i'm not in a position to get one.

i just had to deal with an eviction in my building where some cracky meth head had paid a pet deposit for one cat, gave that cat to someone else in the building (unneutered male) and brought in a mother cat with two kittens. the cats were starving and the mother cat wound up with an infected milk duct and she had to surrender the cat to the spca to get the pet seen to medically, but she still has the kittens, who are also not neutered. and when i brought up in passing that maybe she should be more concerned over her health and a place to live than starting up a kitten farm, i got promptly told to go fuck myself because 'i need something for myself too and i can have a pet if i want'.

people who have pets they shouldn't have are in the same venn diagram as dog owners that refuse to use a leash and expect everyone to be okay with their dog biting them because they're an esa and they're 'in training'. they're selfish and unempathetic.

jfc and don't follow the advice of that person suggesting you buy used litter robots off facebook. or anywhere else. that's just another tragedy waiting to happen when the cats catch a disease. why are so many dwrpers this fucking lazy about basic pet care?

you sound like a real treat to interact with

people aren't always in the right headspace to think about death. why does having to click on a plurk to find out who died matter so much to you? it's two seconds of effort.

+1

if you live in an apartment building just assume there are at a minimum insects, and probably mice. my current place also has house centipedes, for everyone's sins.

+2, ayrt has no idea what rodents are about, especially in an apartment building. you can be the cleanest person, and rats and mice will still travel for shelter, food or nesting resources if there's an infestation nearby, or if you have unattended holes in your walls or by your pipelines. yes, they'll thrive in a household with everyone's shit on the floor, but you're kidding yourself if you think you're safe from mice in perpetuity, especially if you don't live in a newly built home. there are many reasons to pick on dwrpers, but suffering through a rodent infestation ain't it.

it was a joke, but also that is not a tiny list.

you don’t even need to be slovenly either, they just need a constant food source like chicken feed if you’re raising backyard chickens.

parasocial parasite. emotional attachment of any sort makes you scum.

i don't know if you know this but james earl jones' movies are still there
