I’m reading His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman for the first time and it just occurred to me that like…. my depression would be alleviated so much if I had a daemon??? Like imagine having a physical manifestation of your soul that has known and loved you since birth reassure you when you’re alone and scared and sad because you’re never actually alone… like most people, my depressive episodes are always worst when I’m alone in my room with no one and nothing but my cruel depressive thoughts. That depression prevents you from reaching out to people and telling them how you’re feeling and prevents you from really hearing or believing people when they try to help you but imagine having a daemon there to hold you and comfort you and tell you that your cruel thoughts about yourself aren’t true and they should know because they know you better than anyone. Having a physical voice there to contradict those cruel thoughts would be so amazing like wow I always sort of wish I had a daemon from a “who wouldn’t want a talking animal companion!” perspective but now I wish I had one because it would make my whole life better to never have to be completely alone with my own thoughts.

One thing they don't tell you about being an adult therian is that much of the online community gradually feels more and more alienating. Posts about wearing gear to school or writing about your theriotype at college stop feeling relatable. And it's admittedly hard not to get grumpy about it. Sure, occasionally you see some insights about working a 9 to 5 when you're a dog, or managing your appointments when you're a bird, but most of the short-form writings you come across feel less like the relevant ramblings of your peers, and more like looking through a window at a life you had to leave behind. I don't miss school, good gods, nothing could ever make me wish I was 16 again. But I do miss the relative simplicity of it, and the ease with which I related to other school-age therians.

Some concepts:

Boys who teach their non-witch boyfriends about witchcraft

Boys who aren’t witches but still get excited everytime their witch bf talks about witchcraft

Boys who become witches together and practise everything with each other

Boys buying each other witchcraft supplies and drawing sigils on them

Boys making personal sigils for each other

Witch boys supporting each other’s craft and practising together to grow as individuals

Evolution Series: The Walking Whales

Whales are perhaps the most remarkable group of animals to go back to sea, and their evolutionary journey is now quite well understood due to a variety of fossils found mostly in Pakistan. 

*The animals represented here are not to scale and don’t represent a direct line of descent, but rather plausible models for how this amazing transition happened.*

got a couple of hours just to wish Nico a late happy birthday

yknow what my friend and i talked about today??? they did an entire season in 1963, with like,,, 2.5 plotlines focused around injustice/discrimination/etc..... without saying a slur. yeah they said queer, but if anything it was to demonstrate how that word has been reclaimed. they didnt say f*g, they didnt say the n-word, when in reality those words most likely wouldve been thrown around like nothing in the situations depicted.

thats how easy it is lmao. they managed to accurately depict these characters in ACTUAL HISTORICAL SITUATIONS and did so without using slurs to make their point. it’s just amazing to me because all three of those confrontation scenes were impactful and meaningful anyways without it.

i was having a good time watching his dark materials but then i remembered

go to the forest together and collect cool things for spells. kiss him under the tallest trees and tell him he’s the most magical thing in there
