🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 14/10/2026I’m concerned that our new kitten has decided she’s a member of the Leopards Eating Faces Party, & is practicing for her grown-up job by chewing on our faces all the time. No, baby girl; this is not the way! 041
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Okay, it really bothers me that the rainbow lines aren’t lining up with the black & white lines. 000
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 14/10/2026People those ages are also more likely to have the time available (retired or early part-time jobs) & have a financial safety net (Social Security, or parents/family, all less likely to have dependent children). I promise there are people of other ages who support you but just can’t canvas. 120
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 13/10/2026(Sorry if this was TMI. I really was able to avoid getting hurt, unlike other family members, & I’m proud that I kept myself safe. But people who think my reaction was the wrong one really chap my hide, you know?) 4462
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Good for you that you would have fought back and not let the abuser “win”. I was a tiny 11 yr old making it up on the spot against someone much bigger. Fawning kept me from getting hurt, calmed them down, and I was okay. Dealing w/ emotional aftermath but I’m still here to do so, so… I won. 1492
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 13/10/2026A few years ago there was a social media discussion in which some people were denigrating the fawn and freeze response to danger, which is what I used. Thankfully I was past the point where it was emotionally wrenching for me to hear the discussion, but I was annoyed. 2392
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 13/10/2026It’s hard to pull up a specific event in my memory, but late elementary school seems about right to me. 020
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 12/10/2026I’m so sorry. That is all very rough and scary and grief-inducing. I hope she does get better, but also sending you whatever comfort will help - Jedi hugs, candles lit, good book recommendations, anything that can help. 020
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Oh. My. Gosh. Took a Benadryl right after my COVID/flu shots (was afraid it would interfere w/ driving if I took it before). My arm was sore & I was a bit tired & achy for the next 2 daya but it was NOTHING like my prior shots. Thank you. 180
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 12/10/2026A few years ago I went to see a baseball game with my dad, who has been obsessed w/ the game since he was a small boy. It was a lot of fun having him explain the subtleties & watching him be excited. I tried going to another game later on that summer w/o him but it was boring. 010
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I also get angry when it’s fridging the female character so the male character gets Character Development. So annoying, so frustrating, and honestly so overused and boring. 150
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 10/10/2026No connections from one part of town to another, and as far as I could tell, nothing but a small convenience store or a tiny strip mall a mile or two down a 45 mph road w/ no sidewalks or shoulders. It was assumed that this was a commuter home & you’d drive to other towns to do anything but sleep. 030
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Years ago I was living in a walking-friendly country & visited my folks in the US for a week or so. I was astonished at how the small town they lived in was so hostile to pedestrians. Almost no sidewalks (certainly not enough to make walking an option for people less stubborn than me) 1/ 130

🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 09/10/2026(Obviously it would be so much better if the cops would just not be assholes. But since they can’t seem to help themselves, I’m glad someone is calling them on it.) 000
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 09/10/2026On the other side you have cops who are terrorizing and teargassing children. None of this “boys will be boys” for cops or “teens are delinquents” for the students. Nope, it’s adults attacking children who want better schools. Thank you, French media. 120
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 09/10/2026The one good thing I’ve seen from this is the French media taking them to task (at least the station I listen to). They’ve been very clear that on one side you have children who are striking (a beloved French custom) to get their broken-down schools fixed, hire more teachers, etc 1/ 110

Reposted by 🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️Chise @sailorrooscout.bsky.social · 05/10/2026WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality. 5340871280
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I lived in a city for awhile that had super hot spells during the summer where the asphalt would soften enough that car tires would sink into it a bit. Not sure if any ever got stuck, but it sure looked like a possibility. 000
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 07/10/2026It‘s tricky when you & your roommate have different ideas about use of time & space. For example, right now I want to go to sleep, whereas my kitten wants to hunt, kill, & eat me. Hard to sleep when needle sharp teeth keep puncturing my blanket & through the blanket my ankles. 020
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I know this is up in the air for some people, but I also felt that Stranger Things majorly didn’t stick the landing. I hated some of the choices they made in the later episodes, & so many episodes in the last season had everyone hit w/ the idiot stick. 000
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I have a new video game (new to me & to the world). I know there are others who are better at it than me; I’ve even gotten their advice on some of my choices! I don’t care because my goal is to have fun, not be the best. I feel like this is a thing some of these people could stand to learn. 000
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Now I’m deeply curious: what is Fat Bear Week? 000
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 07/10/2026This exactly. I’ve never been interested in fantasy sports and so I just… do other stuff with my life. It works out pretty well. 010
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Like, maybe we’ll get Blexas and maybe we won’t, but there will prob be at least some wins in TX and those will make a concrete difference for the people who live there. 010
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 06/10/2026In case this helps anyone else, I find it useful as well to focus on all the wins, even the small ones. For example, a previous election where many towns had their school boards changed & the people w/ lousy policies voted out. That makes a concrete difference at the local level. 130

🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 06/10/2026My personal answer is that there are some types of alcohol that I think taste good. I don’t drink a lot - usually 1-2 drinks per month - but I derive genuine enjoyment from it when I do. 010
🌈Antelope Cat 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @antelopecat.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Oof, I’m so sorry. Here’s hoping that this will work, or that they’ll figure something else that does. 010
