jan 14 2024

bleeeehhhh some small visual changes (especially on collectables page), added some collectables.
i wasted a lot of my time making a c'est buisness stamp and a sand flies blinkie lol. ftu.

dec 2 2023

ive gotten a lot of work done on the offline copy of the site and just havent bothered transfering it over yet. however, i just got around to buying the neocities supporter package, so i uploaded my audio folder.
what this means: homepage and collectables page have some background music that plays now, and the hidden stupid.html page is fully functional.
the homepage music player is temporary as i plan to make a more complex music picker out of it, the collectables music player is VERY temporary, and i havent yet added warnings for autoplay (or anything else..). im going to get a custom domain set up soon also.. im gonna get ovengoats.world even though its a bit more expensive than ovengoats.com and just claim it as an early self-birthday/chrisbmo gift.........
also added some blur to a couple collectables with blood. im planning to have a no-blood setting set up later, but i want the site to be accessible in the lull before i get to it

just so its linked SOMEWHERE on the site, and since its functional now, heres coins.html

blog !!

⬇⬇⬇ latest post ⬇⬇⬇

sept 12 2024; 12am

im not sick anymore!! and im goin back to classess. im in good spirits and ive caught up on most of my missing work, so im doin good. i even accidentally went ahead in my web design class lol.

but who cares about that. what i really wanna write about today is CAMPUS SQUIRRELS

so as an intro, ive always loved squirrels a lot. one of my fave animals. wonderful critters. and recently the past month or two ive been watching a lot of squirrel videos on youtube. mostly videos of feeding wild squirrels, but ill sometimes watch vids of domestic squirrels post-rehab. im pretty picky and ill only watch something and oogle at the squirrels if im confident the squirrel population isnt being harmed in any way or w/e. point is im a pretty big squirrel fan and ive been extra squirrelpilled lately.

so, w/ me being on a small(ish) uni campus we have a population of friendly fox squirrels. theyre very used to human activity and know that students will sometimes even feed them or at least leave behind food. base-level fear of humans is low.

so this has culminated in me buying a bag of almonds to carry around. partially to feed squirrels that i see, but also cause i need more protein & its just a good portable snack lol. the idea is if i walk by a wonderful squirrel and its not even running away from me, now i can reach into my bag and give it some healthy food that it likes!! and its cute its so cute. but also i tend to sit outside on the benches on campus a lot between my classes bc i dont wanna go back to my apartment. and ive found that this time is great for squirrel watching. so why not squirrel feeding too?!?

today (referring to the 11th) was basically the first day i did this. and dude. i got fucking hooked on squirrels. i was squirreling hardcore. i was the enjoyfulsquirrelwatcher.

i spent like 3 hours outside on the campus wandering around/sitting on benches and watching squirrels. i watched a long-term feud between two chipmunks. i heard many different squirrel and chipmunk noises. and i of course fed some squirrels.

i fed a total of three different squirrels today!! one in the morning and two later during my long squirreling session. they all had different personalities its really true.. the latter two i spent a great deal of time watching and interacting with. the first one, who i've been calling Almond or Sally (ill think of a decent name later lol) was the only female i saw today out of many many squirrels!! and i believe she is pregnant as well, or at least has some babies. her fur was also a bit thin in places, probably losing her summer coat. she was very calm, and even before i started interacting with her she was eating seeds in the same place for like 40 minutes. her movements were gentle but confident. she got a lot of almonds from me and would ask for more! she seemed to realize that the almonds i tossed were easier to find in the mulch than the grass so she would beg on the mulch lol.

the second squirrel, who ive been calling the alpha (he is undeserving of the title) chased away Almond a couple times. fox squirrels are very territorial!! initially, before i started interacting with either of them, he was fucking around in the tree above Almond and dangling eating seed pods and just generally being a goober. he came down the tree to scare away a third unknown squirrel that was harassing Almond. but then he also started harassing Almond LOL. anyway he has a very bright orange belly and tail, and very smooth fur. multiple times he sized me up, looking at me while standing on his hind legs, walking all around me (and under my bench), just really getting a good read on me. despite being above Almond in the pecking order and having a lot of energy, he was very flighty and got spooked easily. very curious about me but very cautious as well. when he asked me for more almonds he was much more direct, coming up to me faster & standing upright.

anyway. all that is to say that i hand fed both of these squirrels.

left: handfeeding Almond an almond.
right: handfeeding Alpha an almond. the crop is bad bc i was focused on the squirrel eating out of my hands.
bottom: offering an almond to Almond.

[do not fret, squirrels generally dont carry rabies and i sanitized after each time..] i handfed mr alpha twice even. it was so so sweet i felt their little paws and whiskers on my hand.... i got a ton of photos and videos. i had such a magical day.... i really want to keep doing this. i already feel like i have a connection with 2 individual squirrels....

im considering making a squirrelwatching page for my site where i can share pics and videos and stories and notes on individual squirrels..... cause literally that shit was so fun and i took so many pictures and vids that my phone died. and look at how much i wrote just now .. ya..
