Pro tip: When you get your leafy greens from your local CSA you can eat as much salad as you want

A leafy green salad also featuring beets, mushrooms, red peppers, avocado, tortellini and walnuts. And it’s all for me.

Computers are getting smarter: Google photos now seems to be able to tell these two cats apart. #Caturday #Cats #猫

A brown and tan tabby cat, asleep on a rumpled white sheet. His head is propped up on the pillow like he’s a person

A slightly smaller, slightly lighter brown and tan tabby cat lying on a brown and blue sofa with a stripey pillow. She’s sitting up and looking into the camera with one of those enigmatic cat expressions

Both brown and tan tabby cats, sitting on a blue footstool at a windowsill looking at each other. I’m sure it’s in a friendly way and they’re not about to fight

White sky selfie. Stay safe out there!

Your humble poster, face covered with an N95 mask and half-tinted sunglasses. Behind me is a wide road under a white sky, it fades into the haze in the distance

Another camp friend visited in the night. #skunk

A small, fluffy, black and white skunk, on a grassy area, caught in a spotlight

Loooong friend #snek #snakes #herps

A long, black snake, (a rat snake, maybe?) making its way across a dusty dirt road

Another little guy, watching us from the tree. #raccoon

A view of the branches of a tree from below. Perched on the base of one of the branches is a small racoon, looking down at us

Two little guys came to visit the camp #raccoon

These patriotic birds from last week. #birds

Three small birds, (barn swallows maybe?) sitting up in the rafters of an overhang. There’s a nest in the corner next to them. To the other side of them, there is a US flag hanging down and billowing in the breeze. You can sort of tell it’s one of those “76” flags for the 250th year celebration

Catch of the day #Caturday #Cats #猫

A large brown and tan tabby cat, held in the air by a blonde woman, like he’s a big fish she just caught. His big belly is hanging down and he’s looking at the camera with an intensely blank expression on his face.

It’s a bee! It’s a hummingbird! It’s a. . . crawfish? #inverts

Found a smol friend relaxing in the creek bed. #suburbanwildlife

Looking down into a ravine at a muddy and rocky bank of a small creek, laying there in a bare patch among some large stones, is a little fawn (baby deer) curled up and looking pretty chill

A close up of the fawn

Another view of the boat, the Lettie G. Howard, cruising back out to the Lake

A black hulled schooner, her sails furled, motoring down the river past the pier.

Clancy Parliament@clancyparliament· Jun 28

On a boat.

The gaff-rigged foremast of a schooner under sail. The sun is shining just off the top of the gaff, the main mast is at the edge of the frame. Flying from the windward shroud is a pride flag

Confronted by this guard on the way up the stairs #Caturday #Cats #猫

A dark staircase with an open door at the top. In the middle of the landing is a cat with dark paws, light tan body and very dark face. He’s staring straight at the camera

A closeup of the cat, staring at us like a weird alien. It could easily be interpreted as a menacing glare, but he’s really quite friendly if you give him an ear scratch.

Clancy Parliament@clancyparliament· Jun 26

Guy really likes Lloyd Bridges I guess

Lloyd Bridges as Steve McCroskey in the classic film Airplane! He’s leaning forward with his hands on a desk, scowling. He honestly looks more like Trump in this picture than the figure on the coin (but still thinner) Behind him is a portrait of himself in the exact same pose.

We got another set of mailers, and now ThinkBig ads are showing up in my podcast app. This is getting a little ridiculous

A screenshot of Podcast Addict. Below the show description is a generic ad for Joe Morelle, with “thinkbigpac.ai” in small print (but highlighted by me) below it

Met this little friend on a walk. #stoats #suburbanwildlife

Some garden steps surrounded by ivy. On the middle step is a small, furry, brown creature with a white underside and cute little ears, crouched with its long body stretched out. It has a skinny tail with black and white rings at the end. It’s a cute little stoat!

The stoat, standing up straight, with one front paw on the step, peering over the top of it. It’s about to jump up there

The stoat again, standing on a brick walkway, looking straight into the camera, framed by more ivy and garden plants.

Accidentally mixed in too much water in this falafel mix, so now I’m making falafel pancakes.

A frying pan on a stovetop, with a big flat falafel in the middle, sizzling away. In the background is a plate with a paper towel and a cooked “pancake”

This is a cat check point. Relinquish your most recent cat picture on your phone

Foreground: A brown and tan tabby cat with a pink collar, sitting on a kitchen counter looking into the camera.
Middleground: A larger, brown and tan tabby cat with a green collar. He only looks very subtly different from the first cat. He’s sitting on a green chair in front of a fridge, also looking expectantly into the camera.
In the background is a cluttered kitchen table.

She likes to sit at the table, but never goes after the food #Caturday #Cats #catsofmastodon #猫

A brown and tan tabby cat with a pink collar, sitting on the lap of a person in a light blue sweater. There’s an empty plate in front of them.

The same cat, on the lap of a different person in a black minecraft T-shirt. There’s a bowl of cereal and a tablet in front of them.

The cat again, on a lap again. The person is wearing a dark blue sweater and crossing her arms around the cat

A close up of the same brown and tan tabby cat.

Taking a probiotic and antibiotic at the same time just to watch them fight

A white capsule and a pink and blue capsule on a kitchen counter. There’s a glass of orange juice in the background.

Enjoying the sunshine #Caturday #Cats #猫

A brown and tan tabby cat linearly sprawled on the back of a dark blue sofa, soaking in the sunshine coming thru the window. Below her, another, larger, brown and tan tabby cat is catching the edge of the sunbeam and drifting off to sleep. There are a few striped pillows and blankets between them.

A tribute to this gem:

A tumblr post by wongbal

Hello and welcome to Deep Space Nine. We
are a space station, not a starship, so you'll be
spending a lot of time with all these delightful
side characters like: bisexual fashion lizard.
hologram of Frank Sinatra. goblins. goblin comes
in 3 varieties: bartender, nephew, and idiot. our
doctor is a twink, our commander is antifa and
the captain talks to the gods sometimes. our
policeman is sometimes a liquid and the science
lady is part worm. we have many fine storylines,
such as: Goblin Does A Crime, Watch The
Irishman Suffer, or The Horrors Of War. As you
stroll along our promenade enjoying a raktajino
or delicious jumja stick, watch out for our
nefarious villains: Pope Karen. clones of Jeffrey
Combs. and a horny bastard reptile man who
seems convinced this is actually his show. we
suspect he may be possessed by demons. Have
fun!

Deep Space Nine: now with Worf™M!

Yahaha! You found me!

A blonde person with long hair, but her face is almost entirely obscured by a large oak leaf. I’ve never seen an oak leaf this big! Not sure what happened to it. It’s big enough to make someone look like a Korok from The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild.

An expression of contentedness? Or profound discomfort? Who can say? #Caturday #Cats #catsofmastodon #猫

A brown and tan tabby cat wearing a pink collar and red knit cat sweater. She’s perched on her human (who is out of frame) Her eyes are closed with an expression that could be interpreted as blissfully enjoying the moment, or really uncomfortable, like she’s going to squirm away, *or* she could just be drifting off to sleep.
