Black and white engraving of two cats tucked into their bed, unable to sleep because they are surrounded by a crowd owls, some horned, some not, on the bed and behind it.

You can't expect me, with all your talk about superb owls, not to remind you of Louis Wain's 1904 "The Cat's Nightmare" (hint, that nightmare is owls).

You won’t regret being kind.

Even if no one notices.

Even if it’s hard.

You’ll still know you did the right thing.

Yeah, this doesn’t look like my kind of show at all 😂. I’m more the Fawlty Towers and Blackadder kind of British TV show person!

I’m not very well up on my British TV shows of this period, that’s on me!

Had never heard of this series before!

the magic of the Muppets is that there are two fourth walls. they constantly break the one that reminds the audience they are performers. they NEVER break the one that reminds the audience they are puppets. this dynamic is the key to their entire comedy style

For sale: baby shoes, never worn (Please don't worry - baby is fine. We bought them because they looked really cute, put them in a drawer and then forgot about them until they were already two sizes too small. Actually have four pairs, various sizes, all unworn. Will combine postage.)

Screenshot from Tumblr User hatingongodot: “In 1404, King Taejong fell from his horse during a hunting expedition. Embarrassed, looking to his left and right, he commanded, “Do not let the historian find out about this.” To his disappointment, the historian accompanying the hunting party included these words in the annals, in addition to a description of the king’s fall.“ LMFAOOOOOO rip to that guy User Shitacademicswrite: i thought maybe this was fake, but there’s even a citation! Taejong Sillok Book 7. 5th year of King Taejong’s Reign (1404), February 8.

Never forget the anniversary of King Taejong falling off his horse!

I've blocked Monday out to do this exact thing. You won't even recognise me on Tuesday, I swear

a tabby padding through a patch of sunlight glaring at the camera with an almost kubrickian stare and her tail in the air. she looks like she is going to swiftly destroy something beautiful.

i kneeled to take a sweet pic of her with her eyes closed and facing the sun and instead i instantly got a whole serving of stanley kubrick shit from someone who’s afraid of shadows, plastic bags, shoes, and her own tail.

This amused me greatly 😂 especially the fox painting 😂

Thank yoooo @cheekybudgie.bsky.social

The mummy says "for that you have disturbed my tomb, you shall die at a typical actuarial rate, but perceive it as unusually high!" The caption below the panel reads "my favorite genre it Stats Horror."

Anything that deviates from normal is a conspiracy, including when things are precisely normal.
