HELL YEAHH

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 1d

But also weirdly I don't have any coyotes yet??? 😭 They're like one of the most common wild canines and I swear there's a million plushies of them in the US but it is *IMPOSSIBLE* to get any here !!!

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 1d

Sorry all I ever talk about is my plushie collection lol it's like a major factor keeping me going nowadays honestly BC I am so gravely unwell all the time and they're so comforting and calming and I love collecting pretty things like a decrepit little magpie creature

He's an Impexit wolf ! Real similar to the very slightly larger (and I guess more desired?) SOS wolf but honestly I think I prefer this guy haha LOOK AT HIMMMM

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 1d

If you name a type of canine there's like a 90% chance I have one LMAO

It even like any furs similar to this sorta length/thickness??? All newer furs I buy are too long and the pile is always way too thin?? I needa find this type of stuff to make the kinda plushies I wanna make

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 1d

Dumb question but does anyone know what *type* of faux fur was used for these older plushies? Like is there a certain term I should use to find fabric like this?? Because newer faux furs just aren't the same texture at all and idk what to look up to find this type !!!

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 12d

Also very very much seeking this Nature Company Maned wolf AAAA

Pls let me know if you have one you would trade/sell me or if you can find one !!

Honestly it's even worse to me BC nightmare before Christmas was at least like confined mostly to people that were at least slightly alternative but stitch is marketed to *everyone* and he's so pervasive I see him in my own backyard like. Very literally (I can see him rn 😭)

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 1d

Anything Stitch can be shoved onto to make money will be produced endlessly until the world dies

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 1d

I feel like Stitch is the new mascot for consumerism and capitalist greed and I hate seeing his face everywhere I go it's starting to make me irrationally angry lol

The lack of faith and trust in science these days is SHOCKINGLY scary. What even is the fucking POINT any more !!

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 6d

Please fucking listen to vets and not people online that are trying to sell you CBD oil or some random bs holistic supplement or say shit like 'people knew more back in the day'. No they DIDN'T !! We know more now than EVER ! SHUT UP !!!!

I actually need help calming down I'm so not okay rn I fucking hate this new wave of people who think they're better than DECADES of rigorous research to ensure the best for dogs. They're fucking reversing it at such a rapid pace is scares the fuck out of me.

Highly highly do not recommend ever looking in ANY 'ancient dog breed' specific Reddit groups. Every single one of them things just because their breed is old it means their dog isn't still a fucking dog and not a GOD that will be 'poisoned' by modern medicine.

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 6d

I am SO ANGRY I need to calm down and learn not to engage with these people but holy fuck I am rapidly losing faith in people every fucking day this is making me want to scream and cry and punch shit.

Oh my god I'm getting ENRAGED watching dumbasses in actual time recommend holistic vets over 'traditional' vets and saying "dont poison your dog with kibble and vaccines and chemical treatments!! I know better because my holistic vet who spoon feeds her dogs tumeric and CBD oil said different!!"

I'm so mad lol this happens so fucking often it's annoying as fuck

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 7d

I am yet again very sad that I will likely never get it.

Robin 🪱 | Half dead 🤕🩹 @bugbarkz.bsky.social · 7d

I feel like if I didn't talk about them someone would chuck them on Vinted for like. A normal price.
