Don’t give CPR to wild animals: a thing you wouldn’t think you’d have to tell people but apparently you do. 💀
Also while I’m at it: keep your cats indoors so they can’t kill (or be killed by) wildlife.

that was an incredible google rabbit hole I just went down, good god
From the comments:
“If your cat damaged another animal enough it stopped breathing, it’s dead. You’re not calling the little bunny ambulance and taking it to the little bunny trauma bay. It’s DEAD. It did not have a little bunny heart attack that you need to give it little bunny chest compressions until you get the little bunny defibrillator and shock it until you get a little bunny perfusing rythym it’s DEAD JIM your cat KILLED IT.”
For people with anxiety about filing taxes, here’s what things that happen when you make a mistake on your tax return:
- it gets corrected
- you get a letter in the mail either asking for some additional information or a letter showing the adjustment
- you pay the amount (there’s options for payment plans too!) or get a refund
Things that do not happen
- you’re “in trouble”
- you are charged with fraud
- you go to jail
I know that most people are probably just joking/exaggerating when they say a mistake on their return means they get thrown in jail but when I worked with the public I always would encounter people who believed that would happen and they would be panicking about it. So I like to put this out there every year because if I can even prevent one person from feeling that way, it’s worth it
Annual reblog of this important information.
The thingy above where you sign your tax form says that you’ve filled it out to the best of your ability. “Sir, I am a dumbass” is 100% a valid defense
Not only that, but the IRS makes mistakes too, and if you catch those it can get resolved. I got a bill of “you underpaid by $4700 last year”. I looked at what they said I did wrong, looked at what my tax bill was. And then I sent them a one page letter saying “hey, so here is what you said, here is what I said, and here is the documentation to support that” and then sent it and the IRS agreed.
Harry and Malfoy are trapped at Hogwarts around the time the school was founded. Stuck with a different way of doing magic, with no chocolate, and with each other, they have to find a way to work together if they want a chance to go home.
// This can’t possibly go worse than the last time I kept a diary. // After the war, Harry picks up a journal to write in… and it writes back. Luckily, it’s not a Horcrux on the other end this time.
Draco Malfoy is the last person Harry expects to turn up in Boston, Massachussetts. But now he’s here, and he won’t stop requesting books from the library where Harry works.
Potter has fame and fortune and posh clothes and all he wants is a simple life. Draco has a flat and a cat and a steady job and all he wants is a complicated life. Which makes you think this story has something exciting like body-swapping, but it doesn’t. Instead it has Indian takeaway and a blue jumper and people wanting a whole lot of what they can’t have, discovering themselves as they discover each other.
Two years ago, Draco and Harry had a whirlwind secret romance that ended in heart-break. Since then Draco’s written a best-selling novel based on their relationship, but with one key difference—the characters get a happily ever after. Now Harry and Draco are reunited for the first time since their break-up, but can they rewrite their own ending?
Recently-turned Draco Malfoy is doing his very best to be a normal, productive, contributing member of wixen society. So far, he’s managed to keep his bloody little problem a secret, even from his best friends. But when the professional opportunity he’s been dreaming of finally falls in his lap, he finds himself with much more than just a potential promotion. Will a profile on a new creature-exclusive dating app, a wolfy stranger who seems hellbent on liking Draco just the way he is, and a little self-confidence help Draco finally love himself and his newfound community?
A set of enchanted journals bring solace to two very unlikely lost souls. Whoever said the art of penmanship was lost? This is a wizarding twist on the old fashioned art of correspondence (or the modern art of Internet chatting). What will happen when the mystery writers finally discover the identity of their counterpart? Join this star crossed pair as they obliviously chat to each other; along the way learning about life and love. Find out what will happen when their own voyages of self discovery lead them to the most unlikely of places. This is eventual HP/DM, but other pairings for the protagonists along their journey.
Books have the power to shape young lives. At least that is the hope of the anonymous author of a best-selling series about a Muggle boy and his best friend on the eve of a world war. But stories do more than just shape the future: they can redress the wrongs of the past as well. But only as long as it’s not too late…
After thirteen years of hiding himself away in Muggle London, Draco Malfoy shows up again in the wizarding world–with a wickedly amusing memoir in hand. Harry doesn’t want to read it. Really. He doesn’t.
When Draco, forced into sharing a room with Potter for the year, finds out that Potter has a sleepwalking problem, he expects the odd conversations and the weird games of chess.
What comes as a complete shock are Potter’s other activities…And why he seems so intent on having Draco join him.
(Relax. It’s just like a holiday Hallmark movie! …With, uhm, sleepwanking.)
Draco writes romance novels and doesn’t leave his apartment much. Harry bakes bread and sells it to Draco. Draco is quite weird. Harry might like that.
Namely, he is struggling with: writing his next book, dealing with his agent, finding a decent tea strainer, fielding his friend’s concern over the aforementioned book, and figuring out who the cat loitering in his garden belongs to.
He also has a slight liking-Malfoy problem. Okay, he has a massive liking-Malfoy problem.
After the war, Harry left most of the Wizarding world behind and built a new life for himself in the Channel Islands. He opened a bakery and is happy with his life. Draco is a fiction author who writes under a penname, and he’s currently suffering from writer’s block. His agent suggests he try writing in a new environment and rents a cottage in the Channel Islands for him.
this is a message for everyone who is 22. if you’re 22 please stop worrying. take a deep breath eat a bagel maybe. everything that feels impossible is going to work itself out. have a great day
do u have a message for 25 year olds
uhhhhh 2 bagels?
I’m 32. When I was in my early twenties, I overheard a pair of 50ish year old women talking about the ideal age to stay at permanently. One said, “Everyone says 25. I wouldn’t want to be in my twenties forever. Everything is hard and you get upset too easily.”
Hearing her say that helped me so much. I thought about it countless times. Every time things felt overwhelming, I remembered what she said. The words of this total stranger, who wasn’t even talking directly to me, brought me a lot of comfort, so I hope they can help you, too.
there’s this new scam going around where someone puts your dick in their mouth and gobbles on it until you bust. Obviously this siphons off nutrients and moisture from your body - they walk away with ‘em scot-free. Not good, and a lot of people are falling for it. Mostly it’s girls doing it but they’re not the only ones. Stay frosty out there
They call it a “blow job” on the mean streets but I’ll be the first to tell you, it’s no career for an honest man
we need to destigmatize dropping out of college I am so serious. like dude if u realize that is Bad For You then you can just Leave. I am so fucking serious. just stop. there are other options and you don’t need to force yourself through shit you can’t do and go into debt. i promise you can just Not.
this image applies to college too I promise
someone made a REALLY FUCKING GOOD POINT in the tags (actually a couple people did) so adding on: YOU CAN LEAVE COLLEGE AND COME BACK LATER. if college is bad for you Right Now, if you have mental or physical health issues you need to address first, if you need to get more financially stable, YOU CAN LEAVE AND COME BACK. dropping out is not an end all Final Option. you are always able to come back. there’s no age limit on going to college. if being in college is unhealthy or not doable for you Right Now, but you want to come back later, You Can Do That. you can take breaks and time to assess your situation. that’s allowed.
I think one of my favorite little details about Reigen is that unlike Mob he forgets that other people can’t see Dimple so when they are talking Reigen is shouting and and arguing to the air and doing his weird hand motions while everyone else around him is just looking at him like
Mob: *only casually peaks at dimple**doesnt talk to him a lot if other people can’t see him* *ignores dimple in order to talk to other people* *only talks to dimple openly when he is in danger*
Reigen in the middle of the crowded street insisting that if he adds more gifs his website will get more popular to Dimple:
