My friend and I looking very cute at her Halloween party 😄

“some people abuse SNAP” your soul is rotten

Photo of an orange cat's face. I'm rubbing the top of his head and he has his eyes closed his tongue poking out of his mouth.

Thursday blep

Pals! Do I know anyone who’d be particularly interested in being a podcast expert on representation of disability in fiction for a rather lovely podcast by and for and about disabled people? U.K. based preferred but not essential!

For the first time ever I had to pay a customs fee (like $70, about as much as the stuff cost) on a box my mom sent me from the US for my birthday. I don't know enough about Trump's tariff bullshit to say with any certainly that it's his fault, but I'm for sure blaming him anyway.

Photo of me, a tall white woman with long blonde hair, drawing back a wooden bow to shoot at a target not in frame. There are trees and bushes in the background.

I love my new bow and quiver and arrows, really feel like this whole archery thing is coming together. Turns out having decent equipment does actually help.

Photo of an orange cat lying on top of some pillows, but with his shoulders and paws resting on the window ledge. The sun is making him look very reddish golden.

Look at my beautiful boy

Just subbed to you on AO3 because I need to read this 🙏🏼

Photo of a leather quiver lying on the grass. It is mostly light brown but has green at the top and bottom.

Everyone look at this quiver my friend made for me, I think it's so gorgeous

Photo of an orange cat lying on his back with his paws curled in front of him, his head lying on my hand, and his tongue poking out of his mouth.

Friday blep

Ever since I was a little girl, I always dreamed of growing up and getting yelled at by strangers on the internet about the word ‘irregardless.’

Hell yes

I asked my sister recently for the kringla recipe and it makes 60. wtf am I going to do with 60 kringla

Photo of an orange cat with his eyes half closed and his mouth half open.

It looks like I caught him right before a sneeze 😆
(He's actually just sitting there like that with his mouth open like a weirdo)

unicorn tapestry cardigan complete!!!!!

Photo of an orange cat perching on a grey cat tower and looking toward the camera.

A gargoyle, in my own house

Threads that tell the story of Chile at Expo Osaka 🇨🇱

On International Indigenous Women’s Day, we honor the leadership and dedication of more than 200 Mapuche women weavers.

Their collective work, the Makün, represents Chile’s cultural identity and cooperation. 🌏

Monday blep

Screenshot from Star Trek DS9. Leeta, Rom, and the rest of the workers at Quark's Bar are all huddled together. Caption: "(all chanting): Union! Union!"

Happy Labor Day, comrades 🫡

Photo of me from the shoulders up, with long straight blonde hair with long bangs.

Bangs. For when you get bored with your hair but don't want to chop it all off.
(No they are not particularly straight lol I'll clean them up when I shower later)

T-Rex: Rain is nice weather for ducks! T-Rex: But: what's nice weather for OTHER animals??

Dromiceiomimus: I believe sunshine is nice weather for snakes, on account of how they're cold-blooded! T-Rex: That makes sense! But wait, they can get too hot too, right? Don't they need shade AND sun? Is partially cloudy nice weather for snakes? Dromiceiomimus: Let's find out together!

Narrator: T-REX AND DROMICEIOMIMUS THEN RESEARCH SNAKES TOGETHER Narrator: (PIC UNRELATED) Narrator: IN SO DOING THEY LEARN A TON ABOUT SNAKES, INCLUDING THAT, WHILE IT VARIES BETWEEN SPECIES, THEY NEED BOTH SUN AND SHADE. IT'S FUN TO HANG OUT WITH A FRIEND AND THE TWO OF THEM HAVE A GREAT TIME Narrator: (PIC UNRELATED)

Narrator: T-REX AND DROMICEIOMIMUS BOTH FEEL LIKE THEY'VE LEVELLED UP THEIR FRIENDSHIP, AND IT FEELS GREAT. FRIENDSHIP IS GREAT. IT FEELS LIKE THIS: Narrator: (PIC RELATED) Narrator: (FINALLY)

i just want to look out the window and mutter "nice weather for snakes", is that too much to ask

Photo of the cut end of a log that is full of a brown and yellow fungus (or lichen).

Photo of the same thing growing along the bark. It kind of looks like ribbon candy.

Honestly don't know if this is fungus or lichen but I thought it looked neat.

Photo of picnic tables in a wooded area. The sun is causing steam to escape the wood of the tables.

Sun drying out picnic tables in the jardín botánico after two days of rain.

"Seriøst?"

You ‘run the gamut’ and ‘run the gauntlet.’

You don’t ‘run the gambit.’

gamut = entire range or series

gauntlet = severe trial

Gambit = Alpha-level mutant who can convert potential energy to kinetic energy

It feels very wrong. My birthday is supposed to be the gateway to cooler weather and Halloween (I mean Halloween is still there, but spring Halloween is also very wrong)

I've never seen anyone shoplifting in my entire life and I never will.

Photo of an orange cat curled up on top of my backpack. He is just starting to yawn but it kind of looks like he's just yelling.

Backpack is perfect bed for sleepy kitten

me & the boys misunderstood the arcane nature of the sword & the stone, and using a toyota and some chains to pull it from the stone resulted in the Toyota becoming the new king of england

It's a very boopable nose!
