Hi my name is Artemis and here is a GoFundMe created by my mother.
My family and I were in a fire on the 3rd of June. We are thankfully okay along with our cats.
Our (now previous) landlord has told us it’ll take a year to redo the house and that we are no longer welcome.
We are in desperate need of help as we haven’t found a place yet and can only stay where we’re staying for so long.
If you can do anything to help even if it’s just sharing this post around we would be very greatful.
I honestly don’t know what else to put here so thank you for reading this.
CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it’s part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions
if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators (i do not care if you’re a fan of marvel. you shouldn’t be, but it should be irrelevant either way)
In honour of disability pride month, we made a disability Pride Knight! Stay proud! ⚔️🌈
!URGENT!
A close friend of mine has been evicted from her apartment explicitly because she is trans and will most likely have to move back to Florida.
If any of my followers live in Colorodo and can help with either housing or money please DM me.
You can also send money with a note that mentions Colorodo and I will put that aside for her.

It started out as a silly then I thought about how he hates his mutations in the comics hrngh
Also for clarity sake, this is Miguel’s own universe! I kinda headcanon Gabriela in this world having known him having weird features for her whole life (and him planning on telling her the truth he’s Spider-man until she got caught in the crossfire of a mission.

magz:
my brother had a brilliant idea that i wanted to share with other people who have four-legged family members: he trained our two cats to go directly to the door when they hear the fire alarm.
obviously at first the fire alarm sent them scrambling for cover, but he started slowly by giving them treats whenever it went off, when someone burned food or forgot to open the fireplace flu. he then progressed to calling them to the door to offer treats immediately after the alarm went off. and it actually wasn’t too long before the cats voluntarily started going to the door upon hearing the alarm.
i think this was genius because in the event of a real emergency we know exactly where the cats will be and we will not have to waste precious time trying to find them to rescue them. i think this method would work equally well with dogs and probably other free-roaming pets such as rabbits, ferrets, etc. and i certainly encourage others to give it a shot!
I trained Neelix to alert me to Sounds. So in the even of A Sound he’d find me to let me know about it. Oven timers, knocking at the door, weird creature stuck in the yard, etc. This has the added effect of being able to scoop him up and bring him to safety in the event said sound is a fire alarm or a tornado siren.
The downside is, when I had a baby, every time it cried he’d barrel into the room to let me know. Even if I was already in the room. And if I couldn’t make The Sound stop (because an infant works differently than an oven timer), he’d start biting me urgently. 😅
Confused, but doing his best:
Oh, context is that I’m deaf not that I wanted to create a beast that’d harass me over sounds.

it’s also important to get your animals used to confinement; it’s not a matter of if but WHEN they’re going to need to be in a cage. your personal hangups with “well i don’t think it’s ethical to cage a dog/cat/etc” will get your animals killed in an emergency - you’re not going to have time to be struggling to shove your panicking pet into a carrier during a fire, natural disaster, or veterinary health emergency. buy a travel cage of some kind, introduce it to your animal, make it a completely normal thing for your animal to interact with. reward the animal for remaining inside the cage for short amounts of time and build up from that. feed meals inside the cage, give special treats and toys inside, anything to eliminate anxiety towards it.
travel cages should be certified crash-tested, well ventilated, and properly fitted for travel by vehicle (for dogs and cats, this means a snug fit where your animal will not have room to get up and move around; this is because any empty space inside of the cage means shock from an impact will not be distributed properly and your pet will go flying into the wall of the cage, likely injuring or killing it)
it is NOT the same sizing that an at-home cage should be for a dog or cat. just like in the picture, your dog or cat should have no empty space, because if you hit or get hit at high speeds the empty space will injure or kill your animal.
list of certified crash-tested cages can be found here
the difference with a crash-tested cage means that your animal will walk away unharmed, even in a crash like this (the dog involved in this crash was not injured):
learning that self depreciation isnt cool and just makes the people around you uncomfortable unironically improved my mental health a lot. like if you just stop saying negative shit about yourself you will genuinely like yourself more and other people wont be repulsed by your attitude and you will have more friends. it’s true.
