Purrsistent 🌈 (she/her)

Athena, a tortie cat with a half-and-half face and golden eyes, gives a beat-up lavender hair tie her fiercest, airplane-eared glare.

Whatever the hair tie did, it’s purrsonal now.

This cat is convinced that if she just cries pathetically enough, I will let her into the oven where the yummy smells are.

Oklahoma Indigenous leaders criticize Ann Coulter social media post advocating for genocide Conservative pundit Ann Coulter was unequivocal in her social media post.

Just saw this latest piece of overt right-wing racism, saying the genocide of US Indigenous peoples didn’t go far enough. That they’re this comfortable saying the quiet part out loud is an indictment on the rest of us.

From your lips to God’s ears!

Even when I watch the game live, your recap inevitably tells me about something I didn’t see. You’re the best!

Right, but they can’t keep the Storm from making it to the Cup game because they’re in the other conference. The point is that the Storm may need point diff to get there.

The most amazing lasagna ever came from a restaurant in Walla Walla where the sauce was made by the owners’ grandma every day at 4 am. It’s been gone for many years, but to this day if you say the words “Pastime lasagna” to anyone old enough to have tasted it, they will start crying.

I had that book when I was little! Also I Am a Bunny and I Am a Tiger.

“No cheating. The last saved celebrity pic on your phone is your therapist.”

Well, THIS is gonna be interesting…

You deserve to be happy!

The old lady who lived next door to us when I was a little kid was a bigtime Harlequin fan. Used bookstores didn’t take those, so she’d leave big boxes of them out next to her garbage can and I’d swipe them, read them, and put them back. I learned a LOT of words from those books.

Love that movie! Rick hadn’t seen it either, and it was even more fun watching him watch it for the first time.

Norwegian is full of those. “Chimpanzee” is literally “ape cat,” “bat” is “flutter mouse,” and “turtle” is “shield toad.”

In another couple of decades you’re going to realize that you are so beautiful, talented, capable, and all-around amazing, you can’t even believe you spent so much time doubting yourself. So you might as well just take that on faith now and save some time.

Still better than when they use forced prison labor for this dangerous job.

Sliding the lever over to seal the door on the full-size oven and then turning the knobs to “microwave” and “on.”

Two tortie cat sisters sleeping with their foreheads pressed together so you can’t really tell where one ends and the other begins.

@thedarling.bsky.social Happy birthday, Eve! I have no art to share, but here’s a photo of two adorable cats.

And oh, the stories we could tell about things that almost made it to print…
