The movie of the Neverending Story has the exact opposite message of the book. 

The book of the Neverending Story is actually about how imagination and losing yourself in fantasy worlds are actually really terrible because they make you forget the real world and what’s important. The movie ends at the halfway point of the book, but I suppose getting a happy ending is only a question of where you choose to stop telling the story. 

In the book, our young hero discovers that his wishes and daydreams extract a horrible price: each wish causes him to lose memories of the real world and his real life. At one point, he discovers an island full of demented, lunatic wretches who don’t remember anything about their lives, and he is horrified to discover they were all former “Chosen Ones,” from the real world, just like him.

“We can never see Garak’s bum because of all those long tunics he wears!”

Never fear: I found a Garak bum.

Now we know.

Bonus mirror!Garaks too, because why not.

If a ghost can open cupboards and break things, why not just take a pencil, find paper, write exactly why it’s unhappy, and tape the message on the fridge.

[agwitow]

It just became second nature to close all the cupboards first thing in the morning (even though they’d been closed the night before). Which was when things escalated from banging cupboard doors to actually breaking things.

Faucets, door handles, curtain rods ripped from the wall… all the repairs started to add up.

“Look, I didn’t mind having an ethereal roommate, but I can’t afford to keep fixing all this shit. Here’s a pencil and some paper. Just write what’s bothering you–I doubt you could put anything that would be more expensive than having a plumber come out to replace all the faucets again.”

The next morning there’s a scrawl line at the top of the page that devolved into an angry scribbling mess that tore through the page. Two cupboard doors were entirely ripped off.

“I don’t want to get someone in to banish you, but this is ridiculous. Just tell me what you want.”

The second piece of paper is ripped into shreds and several knives are embedded in the wall.

A careful examination of the paper scraps show that it had the same scribbles as the first piece.

A quick trip to the library and a stop at a store later, there are kindergarten workbooks on learning to write spread across the counter.

“Look, I don’t know if you’re just being difficult, but I hope not. So I got an audiobook on learning to read and write, and here are some workbooks for kids–don’t get mad–to teach them their letters. Just press play on the stereo, and work through the books at your own pace. I’ll get more when you finish.”

The first workbook is half-completed before being ripped to pieces, but at least there was no other damage. Replacing it is significantly cheaper than replacing cupboard doors.

It takes awhile, but eventually the workbooks progress to a fifth grade level. These ones are starting to be more costly (they’re bigger, for one thing), but it’s not even the money anymore. Little notes scrawled in a shaky hand appear on the steamy bathroom mirror

And then one day there’s a message taped to the fridge. The spelling and penmanship isn’t the best, but it’s legible and even signed.

I’m not sure my job could get any more fun. Discovered that dwarf mongoose enjoy popping bubbles. 

 This is the first time they received this enrichment- they weren’t sure what to think at first (especially because the machine makes a whirring noise) but then they got into it. Zookeeping win. Obviously mongoose would never see bubbles in the wild but this enrichment provides them with a novel, fun thing to watch and play with!

@aquaristlifeforme pls tell me your otters love bubbles

(Ignore the audio- I took this video in the public area and there’s just general chatter and some snippets of another animal demo in the background)

Reblogging to my main (I can’t decide which blog to post work related stuff too lol). But you all should appreciate my favorite work buddies playing with bubbles

Thanks for your support

Thank you everyone for helping me during these past few days. I didn’t expect to get an overwhelming amount of support. Since the incident I had a few days ago, I have felt a bit better. However, my mind is still recovering. I’m seeing my therapist this Monday as she wants to check up on me and possibly change my medication along with an increase of my dosage. 

In addition, I have taken a few days off from work as I needed a mental break. I also blocked a so-called friend that I finally realized didn’t care about anything except herself. I no longer want negative people in my life and no one should have toxic people in their relationships and family. 

So during my days off, I went to Micheal’s and purchased some crafts supplies and worked on a handmade project. (Which, I haven’t done in years.)

I worked on die cut watercolor stars which you can see in the image below:

It started off as a test to see if my Cricut Explore Air can out out these shapes so I can start making Wall decals and Paper Garland.

I first created the design in illustrator and exported the file into Cricut Design Space as a cut file, where I then had my Cricut Explore Air to cut out the paper into the said image:

Once that was done, I set up my workspace with my companion, Fluff and started to use my water color paints and brushes!

Here are the final Results: Watercolor stars and Watercolor Starry Garland!

To show my gratitude to you all, I wanted to give the first 10 people who reply on this post one of these watercolor stars along with the first 3 who receive my old starry posters i’ve found in one of my portfolio folders. 

For anyone else who would like a starry garland or your own starry heart headboard, please let me know. If you would just like a watercolor star, feel free to donate 1.00 to show you support cosmic funnies and I will promptly make a star with an expression of your choosing. It would mean a lot to me if you can support me here: https://www.paypal.me/cosmicfunnies

or my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cosmicfunnies

Again, thanks for your support, and I’m happy to have people like you who do care about me and my work! I will continue to work hard for you! Hopefully i’m well enough to post a new comic tomorrow evening!

Have a good night!
