Thankful Thursday (13 February 2025)

[matsushima]

Hello and welcome to the inaugural "Thankful Thursday" post!

Inspired by communities like awesomeers and get_knitted, plus the weekly check-ins and recommendation posts in queerly_beloved and booknook, thankfulthursday is a weekly gratitude check-in community.

Some notes:

• Photos are encouraged but not required
• Nothing is too big, or too small to be grateful for
• Don't harsh anyone else's squee
• That said, you're not allowed to celebrate here when other people are harmed

What do I mean by that last one?
Well, as an example, tw transphobia if you support the recent decision to remove the X gender marker option from U.S. passport applications and the requirement that all identity documentation match assigned sex at birth, you can keep that to yourself - and you should feel bad about it.
What I'm saying is that hatred and bigotry will not be tolerated here.

Other than that, let's share our joys - small and large, personal and political.

He's called Mr Smith, he's 18.5, pure black British shorthair and blind (since he was 2.5).
I'd had a bad day, and he sensed this and came to sat on me and just purred.
