I think all these cat cuddling mouse/hamster/whatever videos are just proof positive that if you keep something fed & loved, it’ll refrain from killing things weaker than itself.

just a reminder
if you think that “masculine things” can be “gender-neutral” but that “feminine things” cannot be “gender-neutral” you need to pause and think a bit harder.

Cassandra Clare: On writers getting paid to write →
cassandraclare:
We all live on the money we make writing. We all pay our health insurance and feed our families and house ourselves with the money we make writing. We take care of sick family members with the money we make writing. We don’t have weekends or days off.

I think sexual pleasure is a legitimate thing to want and ethically pursue
I do not judge people for the (consensual) sex that they have or want
I will not tolerate slut-shaming
