@random-aya is an evil genius and gave me the wonderful image of Richard brushing her hair, as a morning routine. And I just–
Yes.
So much yes.
Give me all the soft Richard being a caring dork, doing her hair every morning in such a gentle manner. She has to look perfect after all. Touching her hair relaxes him so much it’s like dark magic.
Also, I was talking with the sweetest bean @deck-heart about Ona900′s name, since RK800 and RK900 get different names to tell one apart from the other. After some thinking I decided her name to be Cel. It means “sky” in catalan and I see it fitting since Ona means “wave”. The sky and the sea.
I am not advising anyone of anything or speaking on behalf of any company, you didn’t hear this from me, and with that said: if you paid for a product like a fancy canvas bag from Bethesda and you did not receive a product that matched the description of what you were promised, and the company will not refund you, you have the right as a customer and as a cardholder to contact your bank and dispute the charge on your account through the bank to get your money back that way.
Typically you have 4 months from the date you received the merchandise to dispute its quality.
PETA: They’d rather spend their money on publicity campaigns than on the animals in their care. PETA killed 73.8% of the animals in their care in 2015 (x)
FCKH8: Is a for-profit company that exploits oppressed groups for money. They’re also wildly uninformed, and spread misogyny, cissexism and bi/panphobia, as well as stealing their posts/designs (x)
Autism Speaks: They spend most of their money on researching a way to eliminate autism, heighten the stigma against autism and don’t have a single autistic person on their board (x)
Please support other, better charities, and feel free to add any others you can think of to this.
Susan G. Komen for the Cure: CEO makes insane amounts of money, they deny a lot of requests for wigs/help with treatment/etc., and have attempted to sue other charities that use the color pink as part of their anti-breast cancer campaign. ( xxx )
The Salvation Army: They promote the hatred of LGBT+ people, work with fundamentalist Christian groups to support conservative politics and rip off and exploit workers. ( xxx )
Wounded Warrior: They take money that should be spent on veterans and blow it on huge opulent parties for the company bigwigs. 26 million in 2014 alone wasted! ( xxx )
^ Important reminder to NOT waste any money donating to these groups
Reblogging because of the added info about Wounded Warrior.
A good way to know if a nonprofit you’re donating to is allocating their money in the right way is to check out their Charity Navigator rating: http://www.charitynavigator.org
Signal boosting, the bell ringers are out in force, and this info is too important.
Charity season is coming up in not even two months, so I feel like this is important to share now before it’s too late.
this is a northern cardinal displaying bilateral gynandromorphism – the left side of the bird’s body is male, and the right side is female. unlike intersex individuals, the bird is entirely ‘split’ between male and female. likely due to its strange appearance, the bird was never observed with a mate or producing vocalizations, and was not often seen being social with other cardinals. despite how rare bilateral gynandromorphism is, one other case was recorded in a northern cardinal in 1969 – with the male and female sides reversed.
