#AlabamaDemocrats Reaaaaaallllly wish they'd let us post animated gifs here.

Big whisker action, possible whiskersplosion from Lobster. #caturday

You know you're desperate for laughs when you're trying to record a voiceover for a political ad and things degenerate to the point where you bring out your appalling fake Tom Waits voice (I am a 5'3" female with a southern accent) (and zero shame).

YEAAAAAAAAAH www.youtube.com/shorts/FKoyy...

Small victories amidst chaos, frustration, and stress -- I'll take it.

Theeeee pooooose. I want to touch the hind feets, but touching the hind feets is DEATH.

This is ... I can't decide whether to say "THE BEST THING EVER" or just "SCREAMING" and no lead-in could possibly be good enough so www.youtube.com/shorts/eGAvR...

I'm doing the "send handwritten postcards to registered voters in swing states" thing and one of the people on my list is surnamed GREVIOUS and girrrrl, please tell me you do roller derby with "GREVIOUS BODILY HARM" as your skate name omg.

CRITICAL INFO: apparently cats looOoOovvve burlap. He is so damn happy in here.

LOOK HOW CUTE THIS STAMP IS, OMFG.

Showed the bf a socmed post of LoTR wrapping paper some absolute GENIUS had made, and he found it online and ordered me some for my bday...along with (shown at top) his own custom creation. Paper Source eat your heart out bc nothing can ever beat #Boromir and #ZohranMamdani

FYI: if you're reno-ing a smallish room in a house previously occupied by A Dipshit, it will take two hours to remove the baseboard quarter-round. Because they used 2" RING SHANK NAILS at 60* to toenail it to the subfloor. Is ... is it load-bearing quarter round? Killllll meeeeee.

Half a mile from our house. NO THANK YOU. #Fairhope #Alabama #alligator somebody come get this thing.

Recently did a 24-page admissions brochure for Alabama School of Mathematics and Science, and threw in a set of shiny new icons to use for socmed/internal docs/whatever. I'm waiting for someone to get the nerdy lil easter egg on this one.

Doing some PC cleanout and ran across photo evidence of the time I decided a regular pie lattice was boring so I hunted thru cookie cutters to find shapes that would "tile the plane" and ended up with yoda heads and squirrels.

In the works.

WTF, KLOS. Breakfast with the Beatles is AN INSTITUTION. www.change.org/p/restore-th...

Today's project: Creating a condensed 4-page super-basic Voter FAQ out of 25+ pages of hyperdetailed (and fugly) (with at least three major typos) documents from the AL Sec State office. CHECK YOUR VOTER REGISTRATION, KIDS. EARLY, LATE, AND OFTEN. <3

Man y’all can’t do moral governance OR proper kerning, wtf is this “F A MIL Y” nonsense

why am i like this

Please allow me to tell you how very extremely much fun this isn’t. #cottagecheeseremoval #im53ohgodowmyback #killme #iknowthehashtagsdatemeevenmorethanjustsayingim53

On the off-chance that the tiny handful of people who follow me and/or happen across this skeet and do NOT also follow/read XKCD daily ... duuuuuuude. Today's is god-tier. I think "dorian greyscale mode" is my fave, even over "space opera mode." xkcd.com

CHANGED MY MIND #NOKINGS

LET'S GOOOOOOO #NOKINGS

Behold my bf's artistic skill. Why yes, he DID go to film school.

Poking around on standardebooks.org because it's New Stuff In The Public Domain Day and whyyyyyyyy is this so damn funny

Takes 3 hours but worth it: risotto with brown butter, fresh thyme, pinot gris, roasted garlic, sauteed leek and artichokes, and asiago, topped with butter-thyme shrimp. For bonus points, get to your inlaws' a half hour away and realize you LEFT THE WHOLE MOTHERFUCKING POT SITTING ON THE STOVE WTAF

Merry Christmas from this bird, who really ties the whole tree together.

Lobster sez happy #caturday but it’s muffled bc he’s got a mouth full of foot

Superb. No notes.

YEAAAAAAAAH

Chewy molasses oatmeal cookies with a lil hint of toasty sesame. On the left with dark chocolate chips, shredded unsweetened coconut, and poppyseeds; right with chopped walnuts and dried cranberries. Trust me and do a pinch of flaky salt on the coconut-choc-poppyseed ones before baking.

Lobster makes it extra-festive. When he's not trying to eat parts of the damned tree.

Dun. Dun dun dun. Dun dun dun. Dun dun dunnnnnn.

Heated cat bed or expensive vintage amplifier WHY NOT BOTH

The ongoing quest to create The Most Appalling/Absurd Christmas ornament possible, this time featuring an octopus medallion on front and a vintage (!) RatFink plastic doodad on back plus rhinestone chain trim, bc I enjoy thematic dissonance.

Lobster is bad at hiding. Like, ravenous-bugblatter-beast-of-traal levels of bad. #caturday

FYI just discovered that the Golden Gate National Park Conservancy sells historical reproductions of the chambray button-down issued to Alcatraz prisoners, so obvs got one for kid for xmas (and an enameled steel Golden Gate tape dispenser for myself). Support your national parks!

IT HAS BEGUN. (Wrapping gifts remains my #1 fave Holiday Thing.)

GO #AFTYN GO.

Okay so some absolute GENIUS at Netflix decided the world needed one of those "Yule Log" videos and ... it's Gwi-ma. Literally the "fire" is Gwi-ma.

It's a DOWN IN FRONT #caturday omg why is he like this.
