“This video of this
adorable little girl encouraging her Dad while he tries to do her hair,
is just what we needed to brighten up our day.” [X]

[Dad: How’m I doing on your hair?

Child: Good!

Dad: Let’s see, do I need more grease?

Child: Yes. You need more grease on there.

Dad: More grease? And then what?

Child: And then you gonna need to brush it, and then you put a band on there.

Dad: A band on it?

Child: Yeah!

Dad: Aww..

Child: You’re getting it through! You’re almost done! You’re doing a good job!

Dad: Aww, thank you, sweetheart, so much! Daddy’s trying, doing the best I can. Thank you so much.

Child: You’re welcome!

Dad: I’m almost done!

Child: You been doing great!

Dad: Aw baby, thank you so much, you’re so encouraging to Dad. Thank you.

Child: You’re welcome.

Dad: I really appreciate you so much. You’re so awesome. Daddy getting your ponytails ready for school.]

Interrupting all the political ugliness to make you melt with cute.

Me as a father

this is so pure

Kids that age are parrots of tone and phrasing. So the whole bit with “You’re getting it through! You’re almost done! You’re doing a good job!” means that there is at least one adult, if not more, in her life that regularly talks to her that way.

Everything about this video makes me happy.

Tama is boss

THE TRAINS HAVE CARTOON TAMAS ON THEM

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.

Beautiful.

Now I’m crying thanks

and a new cat was hired right?

yep! her name is Nitama (essentially ”second tama” or “tama II”) and she served under Tama as an apprentice before being appointed her deputy

she works very hard

Everytime this crosses my dash, I reblog. It is the law.

Law

I’m crying at 11pm over train cats

Nitama, already now a mature cat (born 2010), has a protege named Yontama (fourth Tama, b. 2016).  There is no information available for either the physical befellment or tragic self-disgrace which has removed Santama from contention.

Giethoorn in Netherlands has no roads or any modern transportation at all, only canals. Well, and 176 bridges too. Tourists have to leave their cars outside of the village and travel here by foot or boat by. So you can probably imagine how peaceful it is here.
