ever since tofu was a baby he has felt the urge to become obsessed with any object that is near him

the animal community online hates itself, and has turned into highly competitive space where everyone is obsessed with being the “best”. We’ve turned animal care into a vessel to feed our own egos.

Let’s talk about it!

I completely relate with the incessant exhaustion :( it feels like every day there’s just more bad news. The only somewhat decent news is that even some of this administrations biggest supporters seem to be growing tired, too. The part that bums me out the most is how long it’ll take to even begin to undo the damage after everything. optimism is so hard at this point but I truly hope November surprises us.

nothing is safe to eat, can’t afford gas or housing, data centers are draining our water supply, cameras track us everywhere, several cities have an electricity crisis, wildlife regulations are being rolled back, national parks are being bulldozed. America is SO great right now!

@yvettenotivette i’m gluten free so even with bread I only can have specific brands. It’s rough out here 😔

[Taylor Nicole Dean @taylorndean]

hey so is there literally anything that hasn’t been recalled yet this year. like I’d say we could at least eat dog food but even that has been recalled

[Taylor Nicole Dean @taylorndean]

tried to give tofu a treat. idk what the sliding was about. I think he thought he was being sneaky.

@stardust404_ THANK YOU!! ❤️

Yesterday I hit four years sober from heroin!

from an abusive relationship to heroin addiction, to fentanyl. then, leaving that relationship but still falling back to heroin, to constant relapses for 2 and a half years.

having sepsis multiple times, needing surgery multiple times, thinking it was the end multiple times.

I thought I’d never escape this cycle.
at my lowest I was using heroin, meth, xanax, and drinking alcohol all at once.

I had no love or respect for myself.

But every time I heard a faint voice in my head telling me to try again, I did.

It led to relapse countless times, but eventually, it led to where I am today.

originally I was trying to get sober for other people, for my pets dependent on me. I didn’t want to abandon them or hurt others with my own actions. But eventually, I tried getting sober for me. and eventually, it worked.

My story isn’t special, this is what so many people are fighting with every single day. I got lucky, I survived.

If you’re in the same place I was, don’t ever give up on yourself, you’re never too far gone, it’s never too late to escape.

hey guys! I’m about to do a massive overhaul on all my animal’s enclosures, but first I thought it’d be fun to do a tour of everyone’s current setups since it’s been SO many years since I’ve done a tour!

see all my enclosures in my new video !!!!
