Sad update everyone, Tama recently passed away… An estimated 3,000 people, including railway officials, attended Tama the cat’s funeral on Sunday, days after she died of heart failure aged 16. [x]
For those who haven’t read articles about it, the local shrine elevated her to a god. She’s now the Eternal Stationmaster and patron god of the station.
me: my mental illness gets in the way of making art and i dont feel comfortable sharing it right now bc im not in a good enough place
non-mentally ill person: use your depression to inspire art! make art about being depressed! thats what artists do, since they’re all mentally ill, right? they FUEL themselves on it. be INSPIRED BY YOUR SUFFERING! pain is beautiful. life is beautiful
