Right, so, I don't agree with this. Is it extremely hard to find a good mobile game? YES A THOUSAND TIMES. Are they all trash garbage? No of course not. Should good mobile games have been designed for console from the jump? NOPE.

There's a time where I would've been on the
"mobile games are real games and worth protecting" train, but that time's long passed, it's sludge all the way down now, all of these games would immediately be better if they'd be concepted for consoles to begin with
Anathema to good game design

This is Emmie. She's just... like that.

Photo of a calico colored cat with tabby stripes. She is laying on her back, belly up and very much a trap, one back paw sticking straight up. She looks half asleep, like this is a normal thing for her, which it is.

This is Mozzie. He enjoys catnip bubbles a normal amount.

Photo of a grey and black striped tabby with white patches on his face and belly and paws. He is laying half on his back, half on his side, face upside down to the camera, in the process of licking his nose. He looks very cute but also real goofy.

Happy #MakeATerribleComicDay2026 to all who celebrate! Here's mine and my kid's contribution. (My kid is funnier than me, it's fine.) (Yes, the kid who drew this is the same kid in my comic.) (This kid is VERY funny.) #makeaterriblecomicday

A four-panel comic depicting a child and an adult in a variety of situations. First panel: the child is holding a Royal Dansk tin full of crayons, that she knows is full of crayons, saying "I wike eat it". Second panel: child alone saying "I like to shipshayft!" (shapeshift) Third panel: adult is driving the car with the child in the back seat. The child is wearing a cat ear headband and a tail and asking "How would a Scottish Fold's ears be pierced?" Fourth panel: the adult is driving and there is a car ahead of them with a bumper sticker that reads "sometimes antisocial always antifascist", and the child in the back asks "what does antifass... that mean?"

A four panel comic about a human and a cat. First panel: the human pats the cat's head saying "Aww, what a cute cat!" Second panel: the cat says "No one will believe you" Third panel: the human stares at the cat in a ... kind of way. Fourth panel: the human says "W-what...?"

Post the best picture you have ever taken of your pet (if you feel like it!:

Photo of a calico colored tabby her back, belly up, back paws and tail and butt to the camera, front half inside a brown cardboard box. She looks EXTREMELY silly.

Photo of a young grey-black tabby with white patches on his paws and face and belly. He is mostly hidden behind a curtain, and one front paw is pulling back the curtain slightly and he is peeking out with his head slightly tilted. He looks SO cute and SO handsome.

Photo of two cats snuggling on a couch. One cat is a grey-black tabby with white patches on his belly, face, and paws. The other is a calico colored cat with tabby stripes, who is mostly orange from this angle. The calico is laying her head on the other cat's head. They are so sweet and perfect and good.

Cat checkpoint: show a recent cat pic from your phone This is my Emmie and she loves me very much.

Photo of a calico colored cat with tabby stripes leaning on me, a white lady wearing a yellow robe with a sherbet colored dots. The cat has her eyes closed and looks thoroughly blissed out. Don't be fooled, though; the instant I stop petting her, she yowls like I am actively torturing her.

Pick a Bond from photos you already have on your phone.

Photo of a TV showing a promo image for "The Lovable Reunion" which must be some kinda show staring former Cubs players David Ross and Anthony Rizzo, because Ross seems to have picked up Rizzo and slung him over his shoulder. They both seem to be having fun though.

Please enjoy ten seconds of my cat drinking water from the faucet in the most normal way.

Emmie will frequently roll over onto her back. That is an invitation to play, not an invitation for tummy rubs. She always looks like a massive goober while doing it but this one was off the charts. She also often doesn't lay down delicately like a normal cat. She prefers to just... fall over.

Photo of a calico colored tabby striped cat laying on her back with her front half inside a box and her back half out. She looks like a baked potato with kicky legs up in the air. She is a massive goober and she looks utterly ridiculous.

This is fascistic thinking. The idea that there is one group of people who is inherently more special and fancy and precious than everyone else is one of the tenets of fascism. Being neurodivergent doesn't mean you are cooler or specialer than anyone else. Do not fall into this trap!

Screenshot of a text from AuntieU (@umaija.bsky.social)
Neurodivergent people are born with certain higher functions, energies and connections to the greater reality that standard humans don't have. They don't understand neurodivergence at all. It's not a condition that needs fixing, it's more like a future human in the midst of standard/average humans.

I don't have any natural talent for crochet, because that's silly. I wasn't born with a hook in my hand. But in high school I was making friendship bracelets when I was bored in class, and in college I learned how to knit, and when I was pregnant with my youngest I learned to crochet. And now:

Hey! My friend needs some money and they're raffling off a very cool bag. I'm gonna add to that raffle three custom-made crocheted beaded hedgehogs! Here are some pics of ones I've made in the past.

Photo of a green crocheted beaded hedge hog with shiny beads and a star on its nose so it looks like a Christmas tree

Photo of five crocheted beaded hedgehogs all in a row. Two are white with rainbow stripes, one is greenish with random translucent rainbow beads, one is white with various brown beads, and one is blueish with dark shiny beads

Photo of a crocheted beaded hedgehog in the dark. The beads colors cannot be determined, but the yarn glows in the dark, so the hedgehog is clearly seen

I am almost done with this audiobook now and it rules. Poison and prohibition and chemistry. It's fantastic.

The cover of the audiobook The Poisoner's Handbook: Murder and the Birth of Forensic Medicine in Jazz Age New York, by Deborah Blum. It shows an amber bottle of spilled amber liquid across a purple background showing New York City.

The pointy baby

Photo of a cat right up close to the camera. She is black and grey and orange and stripey and has white patches and she is very cute.

My younger child is also very into #MakeATerribleComicDay2025. Kid made the first one, then older child was very upset by it, so kid made the second one. And specifically requested that I post both.

A four-panel comic of crude stick figures showing a person and a cat, then the cat throws up with a "bleh", then the person is holding something while the cat looks up at the person, then the person bonks the cat with a "BONK" and the cat's head widens comically.

Magister Astrid D@astridsdream· Jun 24

Oh hey look at that it's #MakeATerribleComicDay2025 already! "Hey Astrid, why were you covered in blood last night?" Well, you see, my cat loves me, just, so much.

A four panel comic about a person and her orange and black and white cat. First panel: the cat is looking at the person, and the text reads "This is my cat Emmie. She loves me very much." Second panel: The cat is now on top of the person by her head, and the text reads "Specifically she loves me up here. On my right shoulder." Third panel: A close up on the person and her cat, and the text reads "I don't mind. When she's up there, I can hear her purring right in my ear, and it's so soothing." Fourth panel: The cat is in the process of getting up on the person's shoulder and the person is wincing. There are three arrows pointing at the person and the cat, labeled "claws", "so pointy", and "probably blood". Text reads "Unfortunately, getting her up there is... rough."

My cat is both cute and extremely dignified. She lays like this regularly. If we dare lay so much as a single finger on that adorably soft belly, we WILL bleed for our crimes.

Photo of a calico colored cat with tabby striped laying in her back, legs in the air, looking at the camera with a "what's your deal dude" kind of expression.

Blessed by a visitor this morning!

You can cheat if you want, I'm not a cop, but here's the last photo of my cat along with the results of her... enthusiastic love.

Photo of my white arm taken in the mirror. Three long scratch's are on my arm, and a smaller scratch on my hand. Beneath my arm is my cat Emmie, a calico-colored cat with tabby stripes, looking sorta up at whatever I'm doing.

Anyway, if anyone is wondering which orange cat had the brain cell last night, it was this criminal. She's the one who figured out how to escape. She is, even now, trying to figure out a way to open the new thumbs-only doorknob.

Photo of a mostly orange (with some black/grey and some white patches) stripey cat sitting in my lap with her eyes closed, her head resting against my hand, utterly at peace, looking incredibly adorable.

Magister Astrid D@astridsdream· Feb 26

VICTORY Old doorknob on the left, new one on the left. TAKE THAT YOU FURRY THUMBLESS DORKS

Photo of a golden-colored door handle on a white door. This door handle goes off to the side, so you only have to press down to open the door, and it has a swirly bit, so a cat could easily hook it with a paw or claw and thus open the door.

Photo of the same door, but with a different golden-colored handle. This one is a more standard twist-knob kind of handle. Worse for people who have trouble gripping and twisting, but also worse for cats who want to do crime.

If you have a feeder that will meet ALL THREE requirements, please, please share. My babies. They are so persnickety, and so chonky. Orange is Emmie, not-orange is Mozzie. They are perfect and precious.

Photo of two cats laying on the ground, looking up at the camera. The cat on the left is laying on her right; she is mostly orange stripey with patches of white on her face and belly and paws, and patches of grey-black stripey in her side and back leg. The cat on the right is laying on his left, his head kinda mooshed into his sister. He is grey-black stripey with patches of white on his belly, paws, and face. They were definitely both waiting at the door for me to come out, but are trying to play it off as "huh what we were just laying here for no reason". They are not succeeding.

Magister Astrid D@astridsdream· Jan 26

Mozzie NO!

Photo of the same black and grey tabby with white patches on top of the same fridge next to the same box of corn flakes. Now he's out from under the cabinet and staring down at the camera, still with a curious/befuddled expression on his face that does nothing to mitigate the fact that he is ON THE FRIDGE where he is NOT supposed to be!

Magister Astrid D@astridsdream· Jan 26

Mozzie WHAT??
