Closeup from an angle, above, with a dilute tortoiseshell cat's face turned so their forehead points to the right and their chin to the left, with a dainty paw curled close, coyly hiding part of her jaw, a dark button nose above cutely placed cream and soft orange patched in soft gray fur. Her eyes are closed, her ears small. One is crumpling under her head, against a sky blue quilted daybed cover, striped with sunlight slants, illustrating Cats Who Earn Titles.

A dilute tortoiseshell cat, with shades of puffy gray fur splotched and swirled with soft orange and cream, is standing and stretching on top of of a dark bookcase, where a cream painted plaster wall slants down into an eave, with her arched back almost touching. Her fluffy tail hugs the eave, curled and brushing against it. The top shelf of the bookcase holds a purple ukulele case.

Quiet the senses,
forget the body, abandon
concepts and control and contention.
Transform the mind into a pile of cool
ashes, and then do non-doing until
stillness permeates inside
and out.

In this
way you can be
illuminated by the clarity
and silence of the
Oneness.

Most of the top half of a dilute tortoiseshell cat lying on her side, on a small blue and silver flowered rug, lying on beige carpet. The top of the frame shows part of a black and purple flip flop, with her nose against the toes surface of the sandal and her eyes fixes on the strap. While a long purple cat toy rests against her belly.

Rhiannon likes my shoes.

It's a cat thing. Our personal pheromones.

The scene is of a many layered mountain vista, blue skies with distant puffy white clouds. From the side, in the foreground, there are wooden buildings heaped with snow. A giant gray tabby cat lies there too, one paw touching the track of a snow vehicle, face looking up from where it came.

Bud knew the snowmobile would return this way, with his favorite meal.

He just wished delivery wasn't so expensive now.

Hell. Hell is where you go.

Shot from the side, a dilute tortoiseshell cat, with gray fur with light patches, is lying on her side on a light wooden dresser top. Her belly faces the pale wall and her head is alert, with upright ears, staring with big round eyes at some human fingers touching her paw. The scene is backlit with pink finger undersides and the cat's face prominent, from a light source below the surface which holds the cat. The window behind the cat is dim with early dawn, illustrating Why Cats Are Touchy.

Two thirds of the top of the frame is filled with clouds resembling a sweep of white cotton wool with rips that show dark blue showing beneath. At the treetops, one third down, there is a patch with gold in the clouds, where the sun is trying to get through, but not strong enough to illuminate the snow in the limbs of the trees, still in shadow, tinted blue by lack of light.

An elegant black cat, from mid-leg, head on, though slightly turned, stands in a delicate snowstorm of round, lit, shapes. Her round-eyed gaze is fixed out of frame, pupils wide, expression enigmatic.

Everyone agreed it was a bold remake of Anna Karenina.

In the background, candle,-lit stalky black tripods with gray sandbags, and bookcases against a cream wall. In the foreground, the light still moody, the top half of a gray tabby with soulful eyes with large pupils, a sweet expression, and a bright white shirt front. Behind him, in the middle ground, the left side shows a bare wall behind the top half of a gray tabby cat, in profile, on their belly. Their front paws are folded in front of their chest, and the edge of a laptop with with a sky-themed skin is at his elbow.

A long and narrow table of.dark wood holds a large plant pot of black ceramic with wisps of dried vegetation on the right. On the left a gray cat sits upright, with a whute jaw and shirt front. He is focused on something out of the left frame with a curious expression, but mainly enjoying the heat from the old iron radiator, painted white, visible under the window. Beyond, a winter landscape of snow on a dark house with a tall roof.

Two cats are shown with their heads resting against a red sueded blanket with blue bedding glimpsed beneath. On the left, a small gray cat with patchy sprinkles of cream and orange has her eyes closed, in profile to the left. On the right, there's a gray tabby, head tirnef to show a cream colored jaw and the inside of a pink ear, face averted so he can touch the other cat with an extended, slender, paw.

Having cared for others
and for themselves,
they then turn to
the master for
instruction.
 
This simple path leads to
peace, virtue, and abundance.

Against the background of a giant hold crown made of golden arches, with round gold decorations on top of the arches and golden shapes decorating the base, with the open part lined with puffy dark red velvet, a soft pillow for the crown to rest upon, but three tabby cats are superimposed on it, as though they found it perfect to relax on, with the cat in the middle staring into the lens quite happily.

But the cats -wanted- to sleep in the big squishy crown.

Corporate media on Shitter.

So, not crossing the streams.

I feel that any company that egregiously breaks the law should have some sort of strike system, where after X amount it becomes a publicly owned utility good

JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, & Wells Fargo join Deutsche Bank, in cutting off existing credit lines, refusing to underwrite new loans, & demanding accelerated repayment on outstanding debt that totals close to a billion. Financial perils of association w/ Trump outweigh any potential benefit.

The background is a pattern of light red circles, overlapping on a dark red background, with snow coming down over that, forming a snowy surface that the front half of an angular gray tabby teen cat drifts just above, forelegs hanging down to brush the snow surface, eyes almost closed, ears alert in concentration.

Bud discovered astral travel was not what he expected. Yes, he could keep his paws out of the snow.

But there was more cold-drippy coming down from the sky. Which was red, a color he could not see. Yet, it still bothered him.
