Thank y’all so much for subscribing to this Musings substack! Many hearty Huzzahs to you!!!
Human: Thank you everyone who has subscribed and joined this smol yet ever-growing corner of Substack! Tomorrow is April 1st, and I wrote a special, non-cat post called Words. There is a recording with it, so you have a few choices of reading, listening, or both (cause both is usually good, amiright?), as well as a throwback clip at the very end of the page!
Nalia and Salem: *high and loving life*It’s soooo prettyyyyy!!!
Salem: Life is sooooo goooood!!!
Nalia: If you lovely Fellow Muzurz would be so inclined to remember to
Human: Thank you again to the new subscribers; to everyone who reads, liked, commented, shared the article essay posts from the mini-series along with the other posts in this Stack of Subs! Reading your comments and interacting with y’all is helping me feel a little less of an introvert so keep them coming! Also, my DM is open to everyone, so feel free to hop into my DM and start a conversation with me!
That being said, it’s about two-ish weeks post-Spring Break, which means this semester will be wrapping up soon. Good sanity vibes are always appreciated around this time😉
=>.<= =>.<=
Because I know that y’all have been missing some anthropology from me (belive me, so have I!):
Today in some countries, religions, and cultures it’s Easter Sunday! To anyone who celebrates the Christian version of Easter, whether it’s today or in a few weeks if you are Orthodox, I congratulate you on the resurrection of your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Huzzah!
To those who don’t celebrate nor participate in Easter or any religious holidays, I hope this Sunday is a relaxing and burden-less day for you! Huzzah!
To anyone who celebrates, or has been celebrating since the season of Spring began a few weeks ago, the Pagan version of this holiday, may you rise with a feeling of renewal and celebrate that renewal, and if you are of age, with some of the most satisfying and consentual copulation you’ve most currently experienced. Huzzah!
To add a little anthropology into the mix and to satisfy your curiosity about why I would include the word “copulation” with Easter-for those who know, obviously you know-but for those not in the know, here is a link that tidily explains the history of this holiday that (like Christmas) has multiple meanings depending on the ideology/belief system one chooses to follow-or does not choose to follow but may choose to observe due to curiosity! (I put “tidily” because I will most likely write an article about Spring celebrations sometime in the future that will go into somewhat less tidy and more messy details🤔😉!)
=>.<= =>.<=
Also, tomorrow will be my non-cat related April 1st post called Words. It should show up in your lovely inboxes by 1pm Central Time, and if you have the Substack app it should appear on there at/shortly by or a few minutes after 1pm. If you listen to the recording, remember-there’s the recording and then there’s something after the recording is done so be sure to check out the whole post😉
Carpe Diem and Huzzah!
~Kimber, Nalia, and Salem
