Mount St. Helens in 1980 @mountsthelens1980.bsky.social · 16h

#MSH45 | Richard Lasher
You've been at a job long enough to know a decent colleague to chat with.

The more you get to know them, the more they share. What's fact or fiction? You don't know, but you listen.

Then there's one story that's so over the top—a bona fide lie. But then, a photo appears.

A red Ford Pinto hatchback angles across a narrow gravel forest service road, a blue enduro motorcycle on a rear hitch carrier. Tall firs frame the view. Beyond them, a towering ash cloud from a pyroclastic density flow billows skyward. Photo by Richard Kent Lasher, May 18, 1980.

I definitely think I'll be playing with a lot of color

How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it?

Chiitan has a dream.
I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other🤍

Whale Fall pin 🦀🐋🦑

A photo of a large gold-plated enamel pin photographed on top of a lichen-covered rock. The enamel pin features a whale skeleton covered with various deep sea creatures, such as octopuses, hagfish, a giant isopod, a crab, and chimaeras.

Definitely worth looking into a referral or where the closest clinic is. I had to save up a bit to do the big treatment, but even the general stuff was so much better targeted

Have you visited a dermatologist specialist? I did EVERYTHING for my Gandalf, it felt, with no improvements, until we found a dermatologist specialist who was able to do more specialized treatments. Cost a ton, but I was already taking her to the vet multiple times a year before treatment.

His arrival was foretold! Got these lovely void kitty pins from @kikidoodle.bsky.social some time ago & happened upon them while cleaning. It's obvious why I got the tuxedo, but I thought the chonk was also cute. Little did I know that my wife would be adopting an actual chonk almost 3 months ago 😂❤️

Okay, another. I will promise no schedule, but I want to give myself permission to just keep drawing weird cats as self care.

Yeah. I think we are so used to understating problems to avoid rocking the boat.

KikiDoodle & Purrmaids @kikidoodle.bsky.social · 1d

Thank you! I'm trying to go with the gut choices rather than think things through.

I forgot how to just have fun with art!!! worried less about what's good, more about what's good for the brain.

Yeaaaah. Apparently recovery from burnout can't happen if you don't ever do self care?

Telling myself "Why not." and I'll try and keep doing and posting experimental cat art.

A gestural sketch of a weird looking cat. It's back is arched and it's looking back towards the viewer with chartreuse eyes.

Yes. V sells and buys from marketplace all the time and I get to hear all the ways people are obnoxious about wanting an even better deal on something we are selling at a huge discount already.

💕💕💕 I forgot that was how we met! Social media has really made our lives much richer!

I'm sorry. May you be in a much better place in the near future
