Mrs. Bustier cut her off. (I am not an artist so please don’t judge! I’m working on it!)

Humiliation in parts - Part Two
TW - named body parts, and, again, way too much information about me. Lots of things not tagged again.
He told me that my vulva had a very strong odour, and he made reference to it frequently. He told me he could smell me sometimes when I was fully clothed. I was shocked as no one had ever said it to me before. He guessed they (my previous lovers) didn’t tell me because they still wanted a piece, but they probably told their friends about it and laughed.
This was so humiliating and I became obsessive. I’ll spare you some of the silly things I did, but I spent hundreds on products.
Eventually I consulted my doctor while I was getting a pap. I apologized and asked if I could do anything about it. He looked puzzled for half a second and said “Your ‘odour’ isn’t strong at all. It’s pretty mild actually. So, no, I wouldn’t do anything about it.”
I don’t entirely trust my doctor, so while at another clinic some time later I told the doctor there that my partner said I was “pungent.” “Do they have a really sensitive sense of smell? You fall on the milder end of the spectrum...”
I decided that the day he made me ask my doctors to smell my vulva was the day to start taking his criticisms with a grain of salt.
sorry for the delay
I know I usually have posts ready by midnight but I’m running down leads on this next one; if everything checks out then I might make a very powerful enemy in the avian criminal underworld! I already have some evidence but I absolutely have to get it corroborated by a couple more parties or else I open myself up to a bird-libel suit. The avian legal system is no joke, especially for non-birds forced to run that particular gauntlet of jurisprudence! Humans’ve only been in the tribunal game for what, six thousand years? Birds have legal precedents that were set six million years ago. I have to make sure my ass is well and truly covered on this because seriously I do NOT want to be ruled against in Bird Court.
In lieu of a bird
I’ve been having Troubles keeping things together mentally of late thanks to happenings in my personal life and the constant barrage of news about how people in power want me dead while those ostensibly on my side practically piss themselves in appeasement. So, I am going to take off the last week of the year I think. That’s not to say I won’t write anything, just that the contents are going to be non-TABS related. Going to start it early with one of those ‘get to know the blogger’ memes. tagged by @speciesofleastconcern Rules: tag 9 people you want to get to know better. @gnollbard, @sitta-pusilla, @some-triangles (humour me), @uzdailjam, @probablementundinosaure, @mmmmalo, @kingofherrings, @inotherterms, and finally everybody whose heart sank a little bit when I didn’t tag them, please pretend I put your name here because seriously I want to get to know all of you. Literally I passed on over a dozen names because I figured they wouldn’t want to be tagged publicly, so if you’re willing to share I’m incredibly happy to listen.
The actual questions are as follows:
1. How old are you? Thirty years old 2. What’s your current job? Lead Ornithographist for The Academy of Bird Sciences 3. What are you talented at? Other people tell me I’m talented at writing, and while I personally disagree I have to admit y’all make some very persuasive arguments. 4. What is a big goal you are working towards (or have already achieved)? Get my name and gender marker updated on all of my vital documents before the Inauguration. I’ve been fighting for months over the name change alone, and I can’t afford updating my gender markers separately so despite the fact that I have that documentation ready to go I have to wait until the courts approve my name change before I can actually move on everything. 5. What’s your aesthetic? thick moss, warm breeze, billions of stars blazing in the sky with a full moon, affectionate headbutts, kindness 6. Do you collect anything? Weird Things e.g. stuff I find on the ground while walking, music by bands that broke up before they ever released an album, and Artifacts of people’s lives. The two big Artifacts I have are a diary that was given to me by a person I care about very much, and a dead baby shark named Marvin in a glass jar that is shaped like Mr. Peanut and full of Everclear because the original jar shattered when our letter carrier threw the package on our doorstep.
7. What’s a topic you always talk about? I don’t really know! I talk a lot about birds but that’s mostly because of this blog; I never had any particular interest in them before I started writing for TABS. I like talking about esoterica though, stuff that makes the world just slightly weirder and more fantastic. 8. What’s a pet peeve of yours? Abuse of authority 9. Good advice to give? Be kind 10. What are three songs you’d recommend? The Copper Look - Barbican India.Arie - Video Constance Amiot - Clash dans le tempo
no update today, i spent a lot of time at what has turned into my actual for real pays human dollars job this weekend. as a result i am too exhausted to dig into the vastly disorganized pile of cardboard boxes filled to the brim with field data and marginally-legible summarizations of other research written on scraps of fast food wrappers, an assortment of used napkins, and the interiors of empty cigarette packets, all of which comprise the sum total of all knowledge here at The Academy of Bird Sciences. by way of an apology, please enjoy the above photographs depicting the before and current state of the greenhouse.
no bird today
i just watched the Transformers: The Last Knight movie in a theater where i paid actual real human money dollars to see it and there is nothing left. i am a husk, an empty shell where once a person stood, now eternally hollow as testament to a woman’s hubris, her sheer disbelief that it could not possibly be worse than Age of Extinction.
no bird today
still recovering from burial ceremony for a friend of mine and general social hangover
as apology have this happy kale runt that i felt enough pity for when i was thinning them a month back that i made an impromptu hydroponic growing container out of an iced tea bottle.
Bestie: Drink water! Take your meds!
Me: I SURVIVE ONLY ON ROCK AND ROLL, FANFICTION AND TWINKS LEAVE ME ALONE-
"I'm only human."
"Everyone makes mistakes."
"It just...it kinda just happened."
"I gave into my temptation. I'm sorry. I'm only human."
These have all been used as excuses for infidelity. I've heard these words pass through the lips of others time and time again and as the pleas are shot into the air targeting sympathy they only land on deaf ears and I realize just how contradictory the words are.
I'm only human? Is that really a reason to give into temptation? For every human who has cheated I guarantee there are about 100 others who have not. So being human is not an excuse because human does not automatically guarantee that everyone will cheat and possibly would never give into temptation. If anything it makes you the opposite. What's so great about humans is they have the ability to reason. A defining feature in humans is the ability to use logic in certain situations so when you or this other person initiates the first move logic, reason, anything should light up in your mind and tell you this is wrong. Most likely you would know it's wrong but you continue to follow it simply because you are just that tempted. Your inability to pull away from the situation shows that you are indeed not human. You did not reason or use any logic in the situation. It's a simple equation really: you+infidelity=loss of relationship. So the fact that you continued to pursue it simply because your temptation was already piqued shows you are incapable of reasoning therefore your mind is almost computerized. Once a situation arises you do not think of other options but rather act on an automatic command like a computer.
So in a way you are not "only human." Instead you are an emotionless, non-thinking computer who didn't know what you were losing when you decided to throw everything into the trash.
2015 was my character development year which means 2016 is strictly action and story progression and i don’t know about you but i’m excited
“Uh hmm….”, You clear your throat turning to face Sam. Shocked he looks away avoiding eye contact. You smile at him teasingly, “what ya lookin’ at there, Sam?” Trying to hold back a laugh brewing in your chest. “Ummm…. I was just a checking to see if you were ok.”, Sam hesitates and then puts his face back in the book in his hands. “Mmhmm” You hum turning to talk away chuckling to yourself, all the while dean sits across the room laughing at Sam making a fool of himself.
people are like "you should do this high fitness thing it'll be so good for you and also a good social activity" and for a minute I feel almost guilty for not wanting to go and then I remember the lingering pain from my foot injury that flares up a LOT when I do that kind of physical activity exists and is a very good excuse to not do it
Just got into a series from like 10 years ago again and binged all three seasons then went to ao3 as one does and found a single 350 word one shot. I hate this.
Okay you didn't have time to write but you had pleanty of time to draw this wee. Seem like an excuse :/
*inhales.*
*Exhales*
Normally I would explain how my writing state and my drawling state are two different mental states I have to be in and there for I DO have time to draw and not to write. Drawling is relaxing, writting takes work.
Buuuutttt I was told spesifically if there was anyone that gave me trouble for it to direct them to Knox fist.
@ninja-knox-ur-sox-off I got one for you 🙃
