there's a raccoon that comes to steal the cat food i leave outside for wild cats to eat.
i named him virgil.
today he came very close to me while i was chilling in the rainy night, i yelled "hey!" at him and did a T-pose to assert dominance.
he ran away.
yesterday he came with two other raccoons. i shall name them janus and remus.
(everyone is safe and i am no longer leaving cat food and water outside during the night.)

modern west wing social media hcs
i feel like charlie would have the most normal social media acct and following, like maybe an instagram where he posts pictures of himself (mostly for family), and like a twitter where he occasionally retweets his friends or bartlet. he likes making fun of other people (especially senior staff) for being too stuck to their devices, and a large online presence would take away that ability
CJ’s twitter is less incendiary than she’d like, since she’s the face of the bartlet administration, and so a lot of it is discussing policy or clarifying briefings. she does retweet a lot of good edu sites or interesting articles she finds. she herself trends a lot, she’s pretty famous online as a political icon ala AOC or bernie sanders, and she gets a lot of edits made online from press conferences (which she enjoys bragging abt to the other staff, while making fun of them for being out-of-touch). CJ also has a private instagram that hogan had her make, but she only posts extremely blurry pictures of coffee and her goldfish with captions like “hogan said to post to remind people that im alive”. toby always replies with “sending the pictures to MOMA. breathtaking” and danny replies with “breaking news. press secretary reveals she is still alive. more at 7”.
leo does not have social media because he still has a flip phone and a brick laptop. he says he prefers hearing bad news out loud or reading it on physical paper, but really, he just can’t figure out how to work it. im talking types “google” into google, then types “hello find me a map of the united states of america” in the search bar. margaret tried to help but seeing him type google into google physically pained her
josh is banned from twitter (after he pissed off three midwestern states, basket weavers, and most hollywood producers in the first week in office). cj regularly checks to make sure he hasn’t made a new account. he has a public instagram, but cj looks over captions before he posts (he once tried to ask the president for permission to get a new account but the president sided with cj). most of his posts are about encouraging people to vote or be more politically active. he is also not allowed to reply to comments on the instagram, so he reads them out loud in a mocking voice to donna. unbeknownst to him, there is a white house deputy chief of staff twitter page run by donna (with cj’s permission) that discusses white house initiatives and shares fun anecdotes abt day to day work. anytime someone tells josh they love his twitter account he assumes they mean instagram, and nobody tells him until bartlet is two years out of office
donna, like charlie, has an instagram mostly for her family back home, but also has a twitter where she talks about tv shows she likes and her hobbies, that has a decent following. she might have a tumblr but again it would be abt tv shows and hobbies she has
toby is on goodreads and instagram (but only to leave sarcastic comments on his friends’ posts). he hates twitter’s word count limit and how it’s owned by elon musk, and rants abt it often. he leaves lengthy reviews on any political commentary article in the comments section. this has been brought up in the briefing room, to the point where cj has a recording of herself saying “toby ziegler’s online rants are not indicative of president bartlet’s views. if you have any questions please direct them to ziegler himself”
president bartlet has facebook </3. there’s a white house twitter page run by an intern, but he’s not involved with that. he posts fun facts about national parks or ancient latin novels, but each fact starts with something like “joshua lyman, 🧍♂️deputy chief of staff, 🇺🇸doesn’t understand the true beauty of yellowstone national park 🙄🏞🏜🤦♂️”. most people think it’s a parody account and cj doesn’t want to correct them
abbey does not have facebook, despite her husbands insistence that it’s better than twitter. on the rare occasions she uses her account it’s mostly to discuss important medical breakthroughs and her daughter’s work
sam has a really popular instagram, where he posts selfies and pretty pictures of the white house and captions like “having a great day at work today!” or “white house at sunset.. gorgeous”. he posts on his story a lot, and comes off as very relatable to the public. he’s cj’s dream social media user
will bailey runs campaign social medias pretty well but his own twitter account is mostly for promoting the campaigns. occasionally he retweets stuff his friends post, or tweets out funny jokes he hears.
margaret is tumblr famous, but never posts abt her job. her posts regularly wind up on other sites. she hasn’t told anybody and doesn’t plan to

ins and outs of 2024 (sanders sides fandom edition)
ins (😍):
-remy centric art/fics/creations (i feel like he’s going to make a comeback!).
-aus where all the sides are related/family.
-drawing the sides as animals.
-constructive tss criticism without tagging thomas.
-dancer aus!
-roman/logan angst that has nothing to do with them turning into villains.
-uniquely styled fics (bullet fics, poem fics, script fics, video fics, podfics, you name it!).
-overaccessorized cosplays!
outs (🙄):
-blaming roman for things that aren’t his fault.
-incorrect quotes where the entire punchline is just infantilizing patton.
-“(side) needs to have a villain arc in canon!”/“(side) is gonna become a dark side!”.
-aphobia/arophobia in the fandom (i could write an essay about this).
-calling logan and janus alcoholics.
-“roman isn’t thomas’ hero” jokes.
-saying “did you even watch the series?” when people express their dislike towards a side.
-racism in the fandom (i’ve written essays about this).

Y'all remember when someone said I was making fetish art of trans people and pulled a hissy fit when I pointed out that I wasn't? Because none of the art was even anything sexual, they were just chilling. Existing.
Technically, they tried to call me out for being a cis woman drawing porn of the sides. But then they back pedaled when I pointed out I was genderfluid.
And their whole argument was that "you don't draw any of them with top surgery" or "you don't draw them like it's a normal thing"
🙄please
Yeah because Patton Sanders in a frog binder just smiling is something inherently sexual. And I guess the fact that Remus has visible top surgery scars(and had his nips yeeted so he could wear sick af stickers in place)just went over their cherry picking head
Anyways
Trans people don't need to get surgery to fit your "ideal" vision. Some people cannot get surgery. Or they simply don't want to. That does not mean they aren't still trans
Ngl that's one of the reasons I don't draw the sides anymore. Some of the fans are just a sandwich short of a picnic

The frozen episode of sanders asides is now called a Sanders Sides episode. I think Thomas is trying to label these as sanders sides episode so his fans don't complain about when the last episode came out
