Haven’t heard from Bode in a while. How is it doing?
BODE
Classification: Native
Conservation status: Vulnerable
BODE was once a ubiquitous sight on nearly every dashboard. The lush and abundant resource of pictures of fat cats provided ample habitat for the memes. But now, BODE populations are in decline, and conservationists are struggling to understand why.
Habitat loss is a common source of population decline in memes, but fat cat photos remain as common as ever. A more likely explanation is that aging memes often lose sustenance from loss of context. Does the average tumblr user know that someone once had a dream where the new meme was to caption photos of fat cats with BODE and then the dream became reality? Or are they simply tired of it, moving on to newer memes?
Dream memes like BODE often struggle to find a sustainable existence after the initial population boom driven by their absurdity, but others such as There Are Many Benefits To Being A Marine Biologist have continued to find homes, such as in posts about marine biology. Why hasn't BODE become a mainstay of posts about fat cats? Is it the irrelevance of the word to the photo subject? Is it the existence of a character called Bode who dominates tags and search results that would once have been rife with chubby feline photography?
Researchers have not reached a conclusion. But without conservation efforts, the future for BODE does not bode well.

Fun Fact: LET ME HOLD THE BABYYYYY!!!
JOKE-OGRAPHY:
1. Jewish laws have a lot of stuff about impurities and uncleanliness. After giving birth, for example, a mother becomes impure for a time (forty days after having a boy, or eighty for a girl). During this time, the mother can't enter temples (dwelling places of God) or touch anything sacred.
2. In this cartoon, Joseph reads about the above impurity laws from a brochure. At first, it seems like he's just informing his beloved wife of their religious duties, but in fact, he's only using it to build up an argument of why HE should be the one holding the new Baby Jesus. After all, if Mary is legally impure, doesn't that mean she can't hold Jesus, since He's sacred? Of course, by that logic, the manger could be considered a temple, since it's the current dwelling place of God-made-Man, but Joseph wisely avoids arguing this point.

Mousegirl
Conservation status: Least Concern
Classification: Native
The population of the Mousegirl meme has dramatically increased in recent weeks, and memeologists are keeping a close eye on their growth and effect in the ecosystem.
The Mousegirl is capable of rapid sexual reproduction, readily hybridizing with other memes in its chosen ecological niche. For instance, the proliferation of Mousegirls is likely a cause of the increase in terrible puns amongst other memes involving anthropomorphic animals. Some tumblr users have claimed that this high reproductive rate makes the Mousegirl "inherently sexualized" and consider them to be a noxious meme. This occurrence has spurred the Mousegirl to hybridize with the predatory Kung Pow Penis meme, a keystone species notable for its utility in controlling invasive memes.
For those who do believe the Mousegirl to be a noxious meme, a possible approach is to use standard pest control methods targeted at rodents, such as poison. However, in the case of the Mousegirl, we believe this is more likely to induce further hybridization, possibly spurring something like a Poisongirl.
We at the TACM consulted an expert in the subject of anthropomorphic memes, who suggested that "they would kiss."

Here's a meme for all the aroallos <2
[ID: A meme consisting of two pictures. They depict a scene from a cartoon TV show. In the first picture, there is a black haired man wearing a suit. He is looking towards the viewer with a big smile on his face. He is gesturing behind him as if he wanted to present something. Behind him, there's a white pedal with nothing on it. Red ribbon held up by four golden poles is going around it. Above the pedestal, there are three headlights shining on it. The room appears to be part of a gallery or a museum. At the top of the picture, white text in all caps says "This is where I'd put good canon aroallo representation...". The second picture depicts the same situation, except the man is now leaning slightly forward so that the pedestal isn't as visible anymore. He appears to be yelling angrily. His hands are in front of his body, half closed with the palms facing upwards. White text in all caps at the bottom of the picture says "... if I had any!" / End ID]

The Protect ICWA Campaign was established by the National Indian Child Welfare Association, the National Congress of American Indians, The Association on American Indian Affairs, and the Native American Rights Fund. The forced assimilation of Native people in the U.S. is nothing new and it has always targeted children. That's why over 40 years ago, the Indian Child Welfare Act was put into place. The number one goal of the ICWA was to curb the generational harm caused by Native children being separated from their families and tribal communities.
What many people may not understand is that Native children being separated from their families is a modern issue, impacting far too many Native children to this day. And come November 9, the law working to protect these children from being forcibly removed from their homes and families will be challenged in front of the Supreme Court of the United States.
Click on the link to this petition. Help stop forced assimilation and the theft of Native Children.
Your silence makes you complicit in Native genocide.
