seriously. where are all these masses coming from who think a cat's coloring affects their personality? what the fuck?

even though we're also super racist, this at least is not a thing here. it's never been a thing.

what the fuck.

    sure sure, i'm just telling you what this behavior looks like from the outside. according to me. very eminent scholar of these kinds of things, really. honestly.

    but seriously, we've had cats since i was ... 5? and i never ever thought of connecting the coloring of a cat to its personality. ever. this never entered the horizon of things to think for anyone i knew in hungary in the 90s. or the 2000s. i first encountered this sort of thinking on reddit a few years ago. the only thing i can relate it to is the stories of people killing black cats because of witches or whatever.

      I guess the language of it comes from the Internet, but for us (mostly my partner) the love of black cats goes back to childhood TV and we ended up rescuing a bonded pair of them. In reality we definitely don't need to be doing cat phrenology
