Bsky is asking for my birthdate now 🥲
...not to be dramatic but I might use this as an excuse for an indefinite break, in which case I am wishing everybody happy holidays and an excellent new year!!

Season’s Greetings to all ✨

Christmas tree with the cats

We’re about two weeks away from when you’re likely going to be traveling for the holidays.

Now is a great time to get this year’s Covid booster and order an n95 mask to wear on the plane.

If you get sick, test for Covid and if it’s positive, stay home!

Turn on the TV. Doesn’t matter what channel.

I'm only halfway through the article but WHAT A LIFE

I get that there's such a thing as run time and pacing, but Desert Island Discs cut off Barrett's Privateers this morning, so it is my honourable Canadian duty to bring it, unedited, to this great island nation.

Terror Camp Saturday 🙂‍↕️

online friendship is crazy. like yeah we go way back. we talk about weird shit exclusively and we've seen each other in person between zero and four times

To my friends from LiveJournal I still think about you Wonder if you finally quit, Do you still speak to your mom? I remember when you went to Japan How you swore you'd never forgive him. I can't remember to take my meds but I remember you wanted to live on a houseboat. It's a strange intimacy, all of us unspooling across decades of internet space Like balls of yarn leaving a trail behind us of everywhere and everyone we've ever been I hope you got your houseboat. I hope you got everything. -Hayley DeRoche

A painting of a black cat dressed in blue sitting on a bench in an art gallery. Their back is facing away from the viewer as both look at a large painting 9of the cat revolution on the wall.

A grey cat in blue overalls, yellow shirt, and wide brimmed hat holds an armful of fresh catnip plants. They stand in a field of green catnip. In the background is a red field and blue sky.

Two more little Workers' Square paintings to brighten your day: "A Day at the Art Gallery" (2021) and "Nip Farmer." The painting in this painting is another cat painting of mine, "The Red Banner." #art

A soviet style holiday card. A cat dressed as Santa rides on a big red star with a blast trail of smaller red stars. He smiles as he holds his open sac and various cat toys and treats flow out. In the background is a huge moon, a starry sky, and snow flakes. Text at bottom reads "Seize the means of joy!"

An old timey holiday card but with cats. Three cats in a procession trod through the snow smiling and singing. It is a chilly night but the lead cat hold a star and candle on a pole to light the way. The text at bottom reads "Sing a Song of Joy and Liberation"

An old timey holiday card but with cats. Two cats embrace under a blanket with their faces smooshed together. In the background and abstract snow falls contrasting the warm colours of cats and blanket. In large type in the phrase "stay warm comrade"

I didn't find the time to create any new holiday prints this year, but hey, the ones from previous years are pretty great and available.

there's the horrors but yknow, there's also the joy

I have chatted with at least 2 others who may or may not still be active. Your audience awaits!

Rosencrantz: Do you think Death could possibly be a boat?

Guildenstern: No, no, no... Death is "not." Death isn't. Take my meaning? Death is the ultimate negative. Not-being. You can't not be on a boat.

R: I've frequently not been on boats.

G: No, no... What you've been is not on boats.

and to be more specific a nonzero reason will be your use of color here which !!!
