Just realized that I never made an intro: Feel free to call me Kae, Cat or Ikari. Early 40s/F/tired. I'm a former roleplayer in and around the furry fandom. My household of four LGBTQ+ adults is half disabled, half long-covid suffers and I occasionally rant or share topic related to our challenges.

I am buying so much art. So much art. Like...minimum four artists on permanent retainer. They can do whatever personal work they want, but I periodically wander in with character links (mine, friends, random people whose designs I love and that would appreciate a gift) and then go away again.

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

Sick of the Homeless Problem in Olde Town Arvada?

So Am I, and I’m Done Tolerating It!

A vote for Aaron Skoff is a vote to put an end to the Arvada homeless problem—once and for all.

1. Zero Tolerance Enforcement – Enough is enough. We will not allow this problem to continue draining our community.

2. No-Nonsense Solutions – Smart business and financial strategies, not handouts, to address the issue.

3. No More Sympathy, Just Action – It's time for real leadership. We’ll stop coddling those who refuse to help themselves.

At the end of the day, no more freebies! The city of Arvada will stop funding programs that attract homeless individuals to our community. Instead, we’ll invest in a massive expansion of law enforcement to actively solve this issue and restore safety and order.

Hey Colorado residents, particularly people in Fort Collins, but also those who are somewhat near: my sister and brother in law are running a study on an easy, portable method to help maintain indoor air quality during adverse outside events (like smoke or pollution).

Scariest thing of spooky season : bills

Taxes and vet bills are getting the better of my savings and since it’s October, I’m opening a new batch of nightmare companions

You answer a few questions and get a spooky creature designed from scratch just for you 🎃

My test parcel to the US went fine - sat at customs a couple of days then zipped to destination.

But I'd really like to get an order or two in next couple of days so I have more data on best way to handle things before Xmas rush.

Looking for a little magic? I'm slowly adding more labradorite pendants, and US shipping is open once more - it may be slower than usual, but nothing has changed on your side (the tariff stuff all gets sorted at my post office).

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

I have only about 200 of this which leaves about 3.1k and need to knock as much of this out before court on the 16th so I don't lose my housing.

Okay somewhat decent news.
I actually only owe 3.3k in total and they said they're going to let the courts know I've made payments and we will reach on some kind of payment plan.
So still urgent but slightly less urgent

Texas is preparing emergency resources for wildfires and floods. The Texas National Guard should be THERE — not in Illinois.

We stand ready to support their return home so they are best positioned for helping Texans respond to any natural disasters.

Abbott activates emergency resources ahead of growing wildfire threat, flood risk in Texas

With expected growing wildfire danger across Texas and the potential for a flood risk this weekend, Gov. Greg Abbott is activating more state emergency response resources Friday.

I am quite frankly desperate to make ends meet this month. We are $900 short on rent alone despite everything, and could really use any help we can get. I'm taking autumn YCH commissions and accepting any other help I can get to make sure the check clear in just a few days here.
