Sploot!

Happy Belated Birthday to Me! I forgot to post on my actual birthday, but I had a lovely day! And when I recently visited my family they got me a dinosaur-themed cake and we went to Medieval Times! What a celebration - even eight-year-old me would approve!

And it’s always a pleasure to enjoy a cocktail while seagulls enjoy a snack of their own.

Fake seagulls are holding fake eyeballs in their beaks. They’re standing on a fake tiki statue while a fake crab enviously looks up at their snack.

A fancy cocktail in a tiki-themed glass.

I’m visiting my family and we went to the piratey Broken Compass Tiki Bar. I love all the decor details, from a kraken trying to get in through the air vents, jellyfish everywhere, skeletons galore (including mermaid skeletons), and spam containers strung up by twinkling lights!

She flaunts her dominance

How dare I put a card up there

A black cat is balancing on a narrow mantel above a fireplace. She’s knocking over a card with her paw. You don’t see her expression, but she’s very smug.

I feel like I’m being watched.

Four crows sit on a tree branch. Probably watching.

A few fireworks went off close to midnight last night. Gadget wasn’t a fan. (She’s fine now.)

A black cat is sitting up and looking into the distance. Although her ears are forward, her slight hunch and big eyes shows she’s a little nervous.

I got a delicious Miroir Chocolat cake from a French bakery to celebrate our greatest ally during the American Revolutionary War. At least, that’s the excuse I give while I ignore that I just really really wanted this chocolate cake.

Why hello there

Sometimes your feed lines up perfectly

A screenshot of my feed. In the top post, Shiv Ramdas wrote, “everyone's worried about how frogs are disappearing and if only we'd been been nicer to that girl from the fairy tale who spat them out every time she spoke she could have fixed this”
The next unrelated post is by Micro SF/F by O. Westin. It states, “When I speak, toads fall from my mouth.
There was a fairy dressed as some kind of fucking royalty. I got cursed for insufficient deference.
As far as I can tell, my toads are not any of the 500-ish known species.
If you have a degree in biology and want to cowrite a paper on new toads, hit me up.”

I just watched the nation spelling bee and whoever did the closed captions live must have had the worst work day in their life. So many unique misspellings (I would’ve done even worse).

A screenshot of the spelling bee with the closed caption basically a string of letters.

The best nap!

Two black cats are napping. Gidget is hugging her sister while resting her head on her sister’s tummy.

Now extra cuddly!

I want to boop that nose

Gidget, a black cat, is sleeping and showing off a very boopable nose.

Gidget stole my seat once again. She has no remorse, only snores.

A black cat reclining on a chair. She’s sleeping better knowing she took her human’s seat.

Those eyes!!! I bet she’d be friends with my criminal Gadget. Gadget isn’t very successful as a thief, but she’s destroyed so many cat toys.

Who took this vampire-like bite out of a cat toy’s wooden handle?

Fun fact: Sea urchins will often put shells on themselves, but if you present them with a tiny hat, they may decide to wear that instead!

Two sea urchins. One is wearing a small pink bunny hat.

This gorgeous bird was hoping people fishing nearby would toss her their catch. It didn’t happen while I was around, but I admire her optimism.

The eggs hatched (unsure exactly when) and the hummingbirds are growing so quickly. 🪶 These are babies!!

They’re adorable! Gidget is also a fan of using her sibling as a pillow. In this case, it was Gadget’s fluffy belly!

Hello my pollinator friend

Laura Davy@lauradavy· Mar 5

Delightful news! A hummingbird decided to build a nest in my parents’ yard again! Two hummingbirds decided to nest there in 2024 and it was so fun to watch, especially since all the babies thrived! #birds #hummingbird 🪶
