I hate to be the one to tell you this...
There’s a new litter of coyote pups hanging out in the Graceland cemetery in Chicago. They are learning how to coyote.
Sound on!
I love Chicago's coyotes so much. The only time I've ever seen pups was in Graceland so I think some coyote mama must be coming back every year.
A few things I learned from my hyperfixation on Chicago's coyotes!
Chicago did not release coyotes into downtown as pest control decades ago, that's an urban myth, but the city does officially approve of and protect our colony of about 2,000 urban coyotes because they keep the rats and rabbits in check.
In Chicago as in most urban areas, coyotes are non-aggressive to humans and dogs generally; the two exceptions are in February during mating season and when there are pups nearby. If you see pups and no adult? Walk swiftly away. If you are walking your dog in a suburban or rural area during February, do not let it off leash.
"Coyote" attacks on humans in Chicago, particularly attacks on children, are invariably later found to have been off-leash dogs. If you are walking your dog in urban Chicago, unless you are in an enclosed dog park, do not let it off leash.
Studies of coyote spoor in Chicago and outlying suburbs indicate that coyotes mainly eat rodents and garbage, but are known to eat cats. If you aren't aware by now that your cats should be kept indoors or in controlled outdoor environments only, you must be very new to Tumblr.
In any dispute between human and coyote in Chicago I have come to the conclusion I should side with the coyote. Don't @ me, I have a more aggressive prey drive than they do.

there i fixed it
This is a really shitty thing for someone to do. It’s insane to believe that this woman who has literally built and supported business across multiple industry is somehow less capable of becoming a lawyer than literally anyone else who ISN’T a lawyer… not to say that anyone who is a practicing attorney is has the ability to gauge the capability of someone they don’t know, personally. Anyone who isn’t supporting this, is a piece of shit.
You misunderstood the point of this post, let me explain:
As someone who spent money and grueling time to go through law school, take the bar, and become a lawyer, I have a knee-jerk, eye-roll reaction to any statement that anyone *will* be a lawyer when they haven’t yet done any of what it takes. Kim has to first pass California’s “baby bar” on first year courses before she is even eligible to take the actual bar, which basically no one who does the apprenticeship route ever passes.
Her dad was a famous lawyer and she has all the resources she wants at her fingertips, and good for her that she wants to take on this challenge. But telling the world that a college drop-out doing an apprenticeship is to definitely be a lawyer three years from now is misleading, and annoying for me to see, that’s all. This profession is not a right, nor a shiny thing you can just buy. It’s a privilege that you have to earn with time, money, and a lot of hard work, and even then requires luck to get.

biting your forehead friday
Actually that's very affectionate and careful grooming. Wolves and other carnivores use their incisor teeth to nibble out tangles and scratch itches in their fur. Doing so for someone else, especially on their very sensitive face, shows a highly intimate level of trust. These two are likely a mated pair, or possibly parent and child.
If you have a cat, you've probably had this happen to you. If they lick and then bite your arm, they're trying to groom you. Trouble is, we humans don't have fur, and those teeth are sharp!
biting your face friday (hold still damnit)(affectionate)
Video description:
Two wolves, pale in color. One is laying down and the other is standing. The standing wolf has its muzzle pressed to the forehead of the resting wolf and is biting/nibbling their fur and skin. It later moves on to the fur behind the ears, and the nape of the neck.
Sometimes the biting appears aggressive and sometimes it appears gentle. The resting wolf's eyes are relaxed and it makes no moves to prevent the chomping (grooming).
At the end, text reading nywolf . com / Stand for Wolves, then the logo for the Wolf Conservation Center.

I think one of the best things you can do as any kind of creative is to draw more inspiration from things completely outside of your artistic medium
(with the enthusiasm of a sigma grindset guy telling you to get a side hustle) you gotta be waking up and saying stuff like "this chinese shadow puppet play really makes me want to write a ttrpg"

I hope the lesbian that fixed his internet and dared him to waterboard her is doing well today.
My supervisor called and said, “Look at the work order I just dropped you. You’re gonna thank me.” I recognized the name: Mary Cheney, the former vice president’s daughter. I didn’t know why he thought I’d thank him. I called him back. “What the fuck are you doing to me here?” “I thought you’d be happy. They’re lesbians.” “Dude. They’re married.” He didn’t say anything. I said, “Google her and tell me you still think you’re doing me a favor.” He said I was just pissed because they were Republicans. I said I was pissed because Dick was a fucking war criminal. He called me a communist. Said a couple of guys had been out. Internet problem. Read the notes. I didn’t actually have a choice. But with the pressure off to complete 12 jobs a day, I found I could actually have fun at work, joke with my boss about whether or not the Cheneys constituted a favor just because, hey, we’re all lesbians. Mary Cheney wasn’t home. Which was good. The further I was from Dick, the more likely I was to keep my mouth shut. Her wife was friendly and talkative in the way old people are friendly and talkative because they haven’t had a visitor since Christmas. The house had a few problems. I’d fix one. She’d call my supervisor and I’d have to go back to fix another. But I finally got it fixed. A few months later, my boss called and started with, “Don’t kill me.” He was sending me to Dick Cheney’s. Dick was home. He had an assistant or secretary or maybe security who followed me around while I checked connections and signal levels. I’d already found a system problem outside. I just wanted to make sure I never had to fucking set foot in that house again. Dick walked into the office while I was working. He was reading from a stack of papers and ignored me. I told the assistant it would probably be a week or so. I’d put the orders in. He had my supervisor’s number. He said something to the effect of, “You do understand this is the former vice president.” Cheney looked up. I panicked and said the first thing that came to mind: “Yeah, well, waterboard me if it makes him feel better. It’ll still take a week.” And I walked out. It was my last call that day. I drove the entire way home thinking of a hundred better things I could’ve said. Finally, I called my supervisor and told him I might’ve accidentally mentioned waterboarding. He laughed and said I’d won. He’d stop sending me to the Cheneys’. I don’t actually know if they ever complained. If they did, he never mentioned it.
