pinning this so i can at least hope to quit seeing notes about this:

my retiree mystery gang art IS NOT mystery inc compliant. i only had the original 1969 scooby-doo where are you? series in mind. scooby is a dog. not an alien, not some eldritch descendent, a mortal dog. no characters invented for mystery inc will be appearing either.

it’s not that i dislike mystery inc, i just never watched it, so i don’t have the nostalgia for it some of you have. so please stop bringing it up in the notes of a post unrelated to that canon. thank you.

me internally to people who watch stuff on their phone w/o headphones

this morning i noticed my cat was freaking out more than usual. he’s an anxious kitty (he’d been a stray for 3 years when we got him, then we had two moves with a very rough period in between). usually he has a routine that i do with him that helps him calm down but today it just wasn’t working and i couldn’t figure out why he was so stressed out. he kept bapping me on the head and waking me up and running around and eventually i realized what the issue was.

on monday i had a skin biopsy that left a pretty sizeable wound. yesterday i spent pretty much all day feeling like shit and laying around, and today i was supposed to clean it and change the dressing. he was panicking because he could smell the wound, saw me laying in bed all day, and he wasn’t sure if i was okay. i got up, and as i removed the old bandage he started WAILING. just completely losing it when he saw it. he clearly understood that something like that wasn’t good. i made sure he didn’t touch it, but i let him smell me and see that i was okay, and he watched me clean and re-bandage it and pretty much the second it was done he immediately calmed down.

ten minutes later and he’s purring and snuggly and ‘guarding me’ from such scary things as Loud Noise Outside and Blanket Moving Weird. this cat is better at taking care of me than i am some days.
