Color photo of a shorthaired black cat standing on its hind legs to peer in the top of a paper bag set inside a garbage can.

Photo from my collection, the back reads “Christmas 1969. Snowball trying to see what Mom put in the garbage.”

Look at this champion napper, how can I ever hope to compete?

i don’t know what the fuck any of you are talking about

Capri and Sun are East African savannah pouched rats, a species known throughout the world for its smarts, size and sense of smell.

Black-and-white photo of short haired, tabby, cat standing up outside, looking toward the camera. It’s expression seems very focused and serious.

Definitely a sorcerer trapped in a cat’s body. Photo from my collection, no date/info.

welcome autumn! 🍂 🎃

watched Howl's Moving Castle in a theater, had such a good time. They put the dub on by mistake at first, though, which had everyone in the theater simultaneously pulling out their phones and whispering to each other like "we bought tickets for the subtitled one, right??"

Dunk And Donuts refusing to serve alcohol at its restaurants is a manifestation of the puritanical values that dominate the Atlantic northeast

Nobody cares about that. You just make us tired. Go away.

i constantly think about this post

Small brass butterfly.

The underside of the butterfly, which has little pockets to store sewing needle packets. The underside of the wings are decorated with two plates. One carries an inscription of the drapers company: "Copestake, Moore, Crampton & Co. - London." The other has a gilded head of Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, art, trade, and war.

The butterfly can be folded up, like how a butterfly flaps its wings.

A close-up of the butterfly's wings.

Beautiful 1860s Victorian butterfly, which was used to store small packets of sewing needles on the underside of the wings. This was a collaboration between a London-based drapers company and a sewing needle manufacturer. On exhibit at Tatter Blue, a Brooklyn textile museum.

I just want enough money to figure out which of my problems can’t be solved by money

a crow with visibly sparse feathers around its beak and eyes, and kind of a scruffy neck

crows are looking a little scraggly, must be molting season again

look, it doesn't matter if the night-night man isn't real. a number of voters have very real concerns that the night-night man is waiting under their beds ready to eat them as soon as mommy and daddy say night-night and you need to have a plan to address those concerns regardless

a list of the New Genres which all games can be properly classified into. these are: "Clean-em-up", "Spreadsheet Simulator", "Infant-Saving Simulator", "9-to-5 Like", "Ladder Climber", "Gem Management", "Stroggification Game", "First-Person Game", "Spice World Clone", and "Myst".

game genres are so fuzzy and confusing...what's an Action Adventure game?? what do you actually do in an RPG?? to fix this, i got together with loads of my lovely friends to create a much more descriptive classification system. all games can be neatly placed into the New Genres

4 illustrations of animals,bugs and flowers in a cloche shape. The first one is a magpie sitting on a piece of wood, the second a bunch of mushrooms with a snail wondering between them. 3rd a lunar moth also on a log and the 4th a 5horned beetle also on a log but the log is more horizontal. The pieces are inspired by taxidermy bugs and animals in cloches.

"There are three kinds of magic," said Wizzler, handing us each a balloon. "You can control tigers, you can shoot tornadoes from your fingers, or you can fly by holding your breath. The color of confetti inside your balloon will reveal which kind of power you have." I felt the panic rising in me. What if my confetti turned yellow, indicating that I was a Tiger-Talker? My family, a long line of proud Tornado-Fingers, would disown me. Could I ever return home, bearing such shame? I tried to calm myself as I readied the ceremonial safety pin. Green, I thought, willing my hopes into reality. Please be green. I popped the balloon, involuntarily shutting my eyes. When I opened them, would I see the green I hoped for? The yellow I feared? What if, gods forbid, the confetti were blue? I opened my eyes, seeing shock on the faces of my classmates. Wizzler himself stared at me, wide-eye. Looking down, I saw myself covered in confetti... purple confetti.

“I don’t understand,” I growled, my body trembling with pain. “I combined eighty percent Earth-elemental mana with twenty percent Fire-elemental mana (Type B), focused through a twenty-four-sided icositetragon made of yellow topaz. This, in conjunction with my blood type, star sign, sense of humor, and nickname, should have produced a blazing column of lightning to vaporize my enemies. Instead, it made a big bubble that smells like fresh laundry. Why?” Skullgrumbler began to laugh. “You fool! You don’t even realize…” he squealed. “You’re facing east!”

“It’s whatever you want,” explained Magemaster Grampledog. “Magic is just whatever you want.” I knew he was speaking in riddles, but I couldn’t grasp his hidden meaning. “So the rules are…” Grampledog lit a sliver of smokereed. “No rules. You say some words and you wave a stick and whatever you want just happens. You don’t even need the stick.” His wisdom still eluded me. I stared into his face, trying to decipher what he was really saying. “No, listen.” Grampledog snapped his fingers and his desk turned into a pile of chicken nuggets. “I didn’t even know that would happen.” His hat then came alive and began to yodel. “It’s pandemonium,” he explained. “It’s complete nonsense.”

In my experience there are three kinds of fantasy magic novels:

The tin from Camino 3:1 CBD:THC gummies (pear flavor). It's filled with polyhedral dice that match the color scheme of the tin (green), and a large copper-colored coin that says "combo breaker."

i tried these ones before, and i really liked them. i keep dice in the tin now.

three different packaged cannabis gummies. Wyld 20:1 CBD:THC (strawberry), Camino "Recover" 2:1 CBG:THC (citrus), and a sample pack of Camino "Sleep" 5:1 THC:CBN (blueberry with chamomile and lavender extracts)

new things to try!
