got a cute lil commission of our pets for @kenlowery.bsky.social from @keymonster.bsky.social in their very cool #botanimals style <3 they were wonderful to work with during a really tumultuous and unpredictable time for us.

a colourful, watermarked illustration of OP's pets done by keymonster.bsky.social. from the top down is billy, a white cat, adorned with bluebonnet; lucy, a fawn and white old lady bulldog, decorated with magnolia and ivy; riley, a black and white cat with green eyes wearing trillium blooms; bon bon, a brown and white pibble with a big goofy smile and warm brown eyes decorated with sunflowers and ivy, and then curled alongside her is mac, an orange and white cat also adorned in bluebonnets.

21 states are blocked by pornhub & we're just gonna keep on letting politicians determine the parameters our sexuality can exist within, because some dumb fucks can't handle living in a country where they might see a rainbow crosswalk

As October begins, we contemplate how the sea wind had its way with this now-fungal saint.

scary sea-weathered saint on the church near Hartlepool headland (body of saint is heavily eroded down to a veined or boxwork-like underlying structure of the stone, which looks like weird branching fungus).

there is no apparatus the government can put in place that will change the way we eat; we make food decisions on our own. there are people who think junk food tastes good enough to die for, and no amount of regulations or rules are gonna impact that.

i think it’s amazing how universally loathed “middle men” are & what we’ve done here is inventing a whole new kind of middle men & they’re the six billionaires who own this shit & now they get to gatekeep & choose what’s true & they will tell you that version if you ask nice, you silly little baby.

“The frogman is hurting our cause” lmao the frogman isn’t hurting the cause as much as you sitting around bitching doing nothing except criticizing how others are protesting while you sit on your ass. Wanna protest how YOU want to? No one’s stopping you…now hop to it!

Lesson from tabletop gaming: your choice is never "get rid of a player" vs "keep a player"; your choice is always "get rid of a player" vs "get rid of every other player that player will drive away"

We have to tell them to fuck off. They need to know they are unwelcome everywhere.

Reading those comments I thought this was a grim dark game but look below what the game is and how it is presented. 🤦🏻‍♀️

fucking cartoon loaf of bread. ridiculous. a loaf of bread to stash in your bindle. break open any given crate or candelabra and you get this, an apple, or a wedge of swiss cheese. maybe a roast chicken if you're real lucky
