Partner bought bow tie collars for the boys so it was Handsome Boys Photo Time before I left today.
A fluffy grey cat doing a mlem while wearing a red bowtie. A grey and white tuxedo cat wearing a blue bowtie and looking over his shoulder. There is a cardboard box full of stuff next to him and a cat tree behind him.

Progressive cuteness enhancement
A third photo of the same grey and white tuxedo cat lying in a light blue cat bed. Now there is prominent belly in the photo and his paws are everywhere.

It got better
Another picture of the same grey and white tuxedo cat sleeping in a light blue cat bed. Now he has one leggie curled up by his face.

You may have heard Paul Revere's message that the British are coming.

If Paw Revere is at your house, the skittish are coming.

Boy is afraid of a lot.

You just died. The sixth picture in your camera roll is what killed you.

It was sleep deprivation. Little jerk wakes me up every night I'm here.

Post something random to brighten the timeline
A screenshot of some of the promo material for a cat toy, asking "Do pets have the following issues?" The issues are depressed, irritable, destructive, and inactive, and each has a cat photo to illustrate. I particularly like inactive because they're plump and look cranky.

Paw and Steel wish to skip straight to Festivus, specifically the Airing of Grievances.

There were no injuries except maybe to Paw's ego.

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy:
A picture of a fat tabby cat, full body shown sitting to the lower right, and their front half shown lying down in a second shot to the upper left, on a blue background. It's captioned: "Life is soup but I am fork".

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

I didn't think I'd find one but I didn't realize it was this old.
Cover of Nighttime Birds by The Gathering. It's mostly white with what I think is a bare tree in the snow, seen from overhead.

New sigil art today! The left one is for greater intuition in my art, and the right is to channel passion into my creative practices.

The right one is door-like; the central oval structure can be energetically closed when I want. Such as avoiding a surge of motivation at 3am when I should sleep. :D
Two mixed media paintings on a board with paint marks on it. The left painting has a vivid purple, pink, orange, and yellow watercolor background and a sun design drawn in yellow acrylic marker. The right painting has slightly more muted watercolor and less purple, with an abstract design drawn in purple acrylic marker that is partially painted in with magenta, red, orange, and yellow acrylics.

Meanwhile, Paw is a basket case again.

Rune Guys and Color Guys are underway! I labeled the jars so I can keep track of who's who until I make their bodies.

Bodies will start soon, maybe this weekend.

I could still use help finding some of the materia - check the link in the quoted post if you're willing to help.
A dark tabletop with gold smears, holding a box and bags in the background, many tiny glass jars with either a rune or a color marked on their corks, and a pair of scissors.

Steel has started biting Daddy when he wants food, again, and he's taught Paw to do the same thing. Paw bites harder, in this case, even though he's gentler with Mama.

It's time for some shadow work and I'm starting to feel like the sink cat.
A meme of a cat watching (labeled "my spirit guides") as another cat flails under a running sink tap (labeled "me, not doing my shadow work").

Color test on the nebula painting style went well!

But I'm almost out of purple and blue, so while I wait for more ink to arrive, I'll practice blowing the paint around with spare colors so I can get the edges (not pictured for a reason) looking better.

And I'm done with my painting for A Softer World Volume 3! This was fun *and* a learning experience.
A painting on a black gesso background with ripples of purple and gold acrylic ink surrounded by rows of tiny dots in the same colors. There is a gold crescent moon in the upper right corner, also surrounded by rows of purple and gold dots.

This weekend's painting so far. I think the purple/gold is almost done; it'll probably get a gold moon painted in the upper right.

The predominantly green one I scrapped after making a border line (after the photo) that didn't look right. I think the white dots are too stark, too...
Purple and gold acrylic ink splashes on black, with dots of purple and gold acrylic ink around the resulting shapes. Fluorescent blue, green, and yellow acrylic ink splashes on black with stark white dots of alcohol ink mixative that look like stars.

Oh hey, @nora.zone 's Endless Screaming bot now has their own super group in City of Heroes!

(Hmm, Endless Screaming bot would make a great Sonic Assault hero...)

Today's good thing: Doing my pre full moon thing. I'm not going into details in public but this is the notebook I'm using, before I put a few finishing touches on.

I miss my little buddy so much, but I'll see him this weekend!
