hi, i wrote a novel, it’s about locating desire in a vacuum and peach silk slips and the dead things that won’t leave you alone. also complex closeted lesbian situationships? it has girls and ghosts and gore and i think those are good things to put in a book so i hope you like it

claudine refused to eat for three days, we called the vet and they said it was probably the heat and to keep an eye on her, i hand fed her horrible bits of tuna in broth..... and then we realised that her favourite paintbrush had gotten stuck under the rug and she was Pining

to any amateur vets out there: i promise her liver is fine! as i mentioned in the tweet she ate wet food out of my hand and had plenty of treats, she truly just missed her paintbrush. gentle reminder that a joke tweet about a pet does not always include full context!
