You've just died.

The 6th picture in your phone gallery is what killed you.
White cat with black spots and green eyes, sitting at a wooden table looking up with a “who me?” look in her eye , a white candle in a glass holder glowing to her left.

If you see this, quote post your cat art.
#etegami Japanese folk art drawing of a white cat with black spots, on its back. Words “all bets are off!” written on card. Red name stamp with “あ” on it near cats paw, looking like a cat toy. In upper left is a red stamp in shape of a mouse.

Counterpoints to the propaganda about DC being a “hellhole”: 1. Gorgeous sunset outside the @librarycongress.bsky.social yesterday, Capitol in background; and 2. Free concert by the Henhouse Prowlers, a bluegrass band that performs abroad funded by the State Dept to share American culture.
US Capitol dome with late sunset. In right foreground is globular lightpost in front of Library of Congress shining.

Just remember, you are sumo-thing special. #etegami #絵手紙

Haven’t drawn much lately save for this #etegami for a friend, of her doggo, who had some vet treatment that required her to wear dog goggles (doggles??). Words: “having a good time on a crummy day is our game,” from a B-52s song about a dog!
Black and white etegami folk-style drawing in ink and watercolor of a mostly black dog with a white nose and white patch on ear. Dog is wearing black goggles. Dog is shown with halter face on card, to the right side of card, and just part of her back body showing. Words on card: “having a good time on a crummy day is our game,” from a B-52s song about a dog! On bottom left is red stamp in square shap with initials “al” in cursive writing.

Better this than what I experienced yesterday on 15th at Constituion: DC barricades say fuck you and your bicycle.
Bike lanes on 15th at Constitution NW in DC, with police barricades down the middle rendering what should be two way lanes into one too-small lane. Jersey barricades block the lanes at end. African American Smithsonian building seen to the upper left, cars in street to the left. My bike handle bars and bell in foreground.

#bloomscrolling
Close up of two cherry blossoms on a tree. Petals are very pale pink, almost white, with pink inner parts (i don’t know what they’re called, stamens??) and a green inner part. Petals have ridges and veins on them, very textured. Green leaf on upper right of photo has a neat thorn-like edge.

Linocut titled “Wake,” of a mallard on a lake by Monique Wales.
Screenshot from my phone of a linocut image by Monique Wales. Image shows a green and black mallard duck in the middle of a lake, with the waves of the wake it has caused on the water surface rippling in a light-colored arc behind it, with darker calm waters ahead of it. It’s an amazing piece of art.
