Apparently, AirBuds says, ive been listening to Faith by George Michael a lot, but also Everyday people by. Yea whatever im just putting the song thingie here

Animal: idk last one i really remember was a badger. Never seen those thangs before, thought they only exist in children's books. But ig the actual last was a bird or dog or something. Ah lol no wait it was the tabby cat that often hangs out in our drive way

Ty for the tag!

Can't add several colours to the hair sadly but I dyed the longish bottom part of my mullet green a few days ago hehe, also I have a relatively similar coat to this one that I found on the street and am in love with, it's just darker and a bit shorter

Song: can't choose just one lol, but here are a few I've been hyperfixating on:

Animal: I'm not sure actually, it must have been a bird or maybe one of my cats?

Thanks for the tag :)

I’m listening to the album Way to Fall is from and it’s really good btw

Also it’s too hard to pick one song so here’s three lol

Last animal was probably a bird or maybe a dog

yayyy

Uhmm I’ve been listening to my Harrowhark playlist a lot recently and the one going rn is Wires by The Neighborhood

and then the last animal was a deer last night :3

yayay we love itt

as far as songs ive been listening to, its a lot of pathologic classic hd ost (mostly stone yard and most night and most disease, environmental tracks like) but without discounting osts its many hands by lingua ignota but again not very often

most recent animal i saw outside minus bugs and my own cats is a bunny :3 i saw it across the yard and i stared at it for like 5 minutes, ive been hearing a shit ton of quails but i havent looked at any of them devastatingly

Thanks for the tag :D

I’ve been listening to a ton of Adrianne Lenker, particularly forwards beckon rebound because I’m debating making an animatic to it.

Recently I saw a hawk, they’re pretty neat, I love seeing them fly overhead.

Recently I've been listening to Alex G a lot:

And I saw a hoverfly flying over a dandelion today. <3

"What about me?" Glory asked.

Kestrel shifted her wings in a shrug. "I have no idea. Webs scrounged you up somewhere after we lost the SkyWing egg. I never cared where, because I knew you weren't important."

"Oh, go away!" Tsunami burst out. "Everything you say is hurtful and mean."

"Everything I say is true," Kestrel said.

"I don't think you'd be good for me," Peril said, staring up at her. "I never imagined you like this."

Kestrel hunched her shoulders. "I am the way life has made me. Take it or leave it."

I genuinely don't understand anyone who says that Kestrel could've had a "redemption arc." Her response to her own long lost daughter saying that she never thought she'd be this cruel is just going, "This is how I am, and nothing will ever change that."

Kestrel herself admits in the second to last scene we ever see her in that this is just how she is and there's no room for improvement for her. If she truly believes this (which I think she does because if not she would've changed something about herself before now) then there's nothing anybody can do to help her.

This is why I'm satisfied with Kestrel dying the way she did. There was nowhere for her to go, her character ends here because she's denied herself change over and over again. She decided to constantly take her anger out on children for 6 years, she decided to treat them as horribly as she possibly could, even now when finally reunited with Peril she acts the same as she always had.

She never makes any strides to change herself because she genuinely believes that the only way to survive in a cruel world is to be cruel back. And look at how far it got her.
