Top Tier Cattos Today.
A long haired pale orange cat sitting upright on a red brick retaining wall with his tail curled around him. The lighting is perfect. A short haired orange and white cat loafing on an old wooden retaining wall in a lush green garden. His eyes are mostly closed because he is cozy and feeling safe. A long haired orange and white cat sprawled out, utterly relaxed, between two tiers of a garden. A short haired white cat sitting on an old wooden retaining wall in a green garden with their eyes mostly shut cause they hate showing their beautiful blue eyes to the camera. A sprinkler pole sits in the foreground.

Me just trying to get through a day at the Superhero Dispatch Network without an HR violation.

Saw this little guy near downtown today. He was surprisingly unbothered by the rain.

Rainy day kitty cats.

I just think it's so funny that the floofy orange boy has an umbrella. Where did he get it? Why is it tipped over?

It's perfect weather and I have the perfect t-shirt (courtesy of @jordanshiveley.bsky.social ) to go see Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein in theaters.

Just finished The Outer Worlds 2 and while there were many ending slides I was heavily invested in. This one was such a surprise and it made me laugh out loud.

Executive Wojtek is such a great send up to a fun historical fact and to learn where he ended up was such a delight.
An image of Executive Wojtek, a Mantisaur (a non-sentient species of giant insect in The Outer Worlds franchise) who through an absurd series of events is left in charge of an Auntie's Choice fort in The Outer Worlds 2 that you can decide the fate of. The image is captioned, "After defending Fort Endurance against a fierce mantisaur attack, Executive Wojtek was awarded a commendation for Profit-Securing Stalwartness as well as a promotion to Regional Manager. He eventually passed peacefully in his sleep at the scientifically astounding age of six."

Curtain call photo and just more shots of Lola Minx as the Rock Em Sock Em Robots because honestly, I've seen that performance twice now and it's fucking great.

It was a rowdy but fun show!

If Fannie Sinclair (with a booty like a drop of sunshine) comes to your town, do yourself a favor and go!

The second act.

It started with Alice Wonder doing a R2D2 performance (it involved a smoke machine as Artoo got "too hot"). Then Venus Trjegul did a Subservience inspired act. Lola Minx as the Rock Em Sock Em Robots. Fannie ended it with an improv performance set to Raining Tacos and Telephone.

Beep Fuckin' Boop.

Fannie Sinclair did another robot show and good lord these are so fun.

Fannie started things off as the Energizer Bunny. Maria Lasagna as an Austin Powers Fembot. Lusty Levi as Robocop. And Arilith as a glitching android OC (this performance involved a blood capsule, wild stuff)

Me: Hehe, that's a fun line to program the robot to say.

An AI Booster: It said it "enjoyed our banter" which means that it has the capacity to understand not only that someone outside of the self existed but also that it can experience emotions. AGI is here among us.

Estrano Things popped up at Alma's for the first time in years and the first time since his restaurant Poltergeist closed last year.

A truly astounding and unique experience of chaos cuisine as always.

Descriptions in alt text but I was first in line!
The front of the line for the Estrano Things pop up. The service counter is littered with miniature skeletons, a skull, a dog mask, and other odds and ends. The man himself, Diego Argotti, stands with his back to the camera with a Cheech and Chong tank top and Shrek hat (Shrek themed crocs not pictured). Around him are other chefs and cooks, most of whom are in costume as nuns and one stands in a yoga. A professional photographer stands in the background facing the camera. Black Metal Papardelle: squid ink papardelle, soy sauce tripe, confit chicken gizzards, Mala butter, tarragon, and furikake dukka. Duck Confit Ravioli: Duck Nduja, guajillo persimmon curry, pomegranate matcha, and marigolds. Coconut Candy Corn Sherbert

I told myself I wouldn't buy anything but this delightful Bat Lady by Camille Smooch really called to me and it was only 30 bucks!

The second piece in this clump of four is probably the best piece I saw today.

Shitty Art (the fourth piece) was also very good though.
A large painting of a cat with a halo behind it and geometric shapes surrounding it A number of pieces but the focus is on a painting with. Coffee cup and spoon with big bear-like hands smacked against the table. Words telling a story run through the piece that read: We rode the ferris wheel and bought a funny hat. Then shared our sad stories of love, while our food sat untouched. Tears streamed behind his sunglasses and I cried too. When I told him my tales, he pounded the table and said, "I wish I could have protected you." Skeletons hanging out with Hallo-Scream specials being advertised such as blood burgers and vampire veggies. "Shitty Art" A cartoon butt with a pastel poop beneath it surrounded by sparkles and stars.

Arting even harder.
Two skeletons sitting in a bathtub filled with cotton. "Redhead Gal II" by Virut, oil and collage on canvas. A redheaded woman made of oil painting and words cut out from magazines. A twelve foot tall skeleton done up with metal to look vaguely post apocalyptic. A skeletal dog sculpture and a metallic looking pumpkin with a note that reads, "Every fall I make 5 or 6 Halloween Art pieces - each totally unique. This year I didn't finish because I got distracted making a 12' skeleton.

I journeyed on through the Brewery and saw more art.
A feminine mannequin with a fox head by Prism Cell. Partial casts of faces arranged like a shrine at Prism Cell. Stop the Gondola poster. A humanoid shark baring her breasts among a number of other erotic works.

Then a number of random works as I went through the building
Title unknown. A massive painting of nude men writhing and wrestling with the word LAST imposed over it. A winged woman sitting on a small sand bar, reflected in the water. Title unknown. Artist is Gabe Leonard, oil painting

Got these shoes today and I'm breaking them in for my Halloween costume.

They may lack savoir faire but they help me stay composed. 😉

Thankfully, since it was a single serving, it didn't take that long. I had this beautiful clarified milk punch by 1:15am...

Yeah, this might not have been a great idea and I'm not sure it'll be worth doing in a massive quantity for a party.

But damn is clarified milk punch tasty.

"Why are you clarifying a single serving of milk punch at 11:30 on a Wednesday?"

"I had a FUN IDEA for a cocktail to bring to a party and I'm punishing myself for it apparently!"

You can start modifying Phyre's appearance almost instantly though, which means I made her EXTRA gay.

I was surprised that you can make a Boy!Phyre, since all the promotional material I saw showed Phyre as a woman. Assuming I enjoy this run enough, I'll do a Boy run to see if it's different.
Full body shot of the femme version of the protagonist in "The Atheist" which is the initial Lasombra outfit; big black combat boots only laced halfway up, loose black jeans cinched with a black belt with a silver buckle, black crop top turtleneck, a black leather car length coat, and just a hilarious amount of upside silver cross adornments. Close up shot of the femme version of the main character with piercings in her brows, nose bridge, both nostrils, a septum piercing, lips, and above her mouth as well as multiple earrings.

My initial thoughts on Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 are that it's much more of an action game than an RPG but it nails the VtM vibes really well.

Kind of agree with the developer that it's a shame it HAD to be called Bloodlines 2, I'd be much more enthused by it if it were its own thing.
A big splash scene showing the Seattle skyline with your character, just arisen from torpor, silhouetted against it with the game title overlaying everything. Femme version of the main character, a famous elder vampire known as the Nomad but going by Phyre, standing under a red neon light asking about thin-bloods in Seattle. She is dressed in the standard Lasombra outfit which is all black leather with lots of upside down crosses.
