I had a magic money tree;
Nothing would it bear,
Unless you were already
A multimillionaire.
To stop the pesky commoners
From finding this displeasing,
I called it convoluted names
Like "quantitative easing"

Babby eats first. Photo from my collection, no documented date/info.

Black and white photo of an older white woman seated at a table with white table cloth, leaning down to offer a shorthaired tabby a taste of something from her spoon. The cat is obligingly licking the spoon.

Portrait of a heterochromic cat. Postcard from my collection, mailed 1908.

Black and white studio portrait photo of a medium haired white cat with one dark and one light eye. It sits up on a table or something similar draped with dark cloth against a dark background, producing a nice contrast to the white fur.

I took this image from somewhere else and can't write all of these out on my phone, so if you're reading this because you need the alt-text, take the opportunity to brainstorm some good ones of your own.

I don't like it when Godzilla fights the other monsters. I'd rather see them settle their differences on the dance floor.

Dracula turns into a bat to avoid detection or for selfish personal travel purposes, whereas I would turn into a bat to pollinate local plants and help balance our precious ecosystem. Just one of several ways that I am morally superior to Dracula.

so wonderful when that spark of a novel idea hits you and it all clicks into place and you think THATS THE ONE. mostly because you cant force it. just have to wait and then eventually the timeline says 'here you go, heres a diamond that was floating by.' anyway, caught a diamond today. very exciting
