Finished a book while waiting. Still waiting for the cat (we’ve been here more than five hours).

At least I have excellent company.

A white lady’s legs from the calf down, wearing sweatpants and crossed at the ankle. A skinny little black cat is curled up in the space between her feet, his little head on her shin.

If I am not for myself, who is for me? But if I am for my own self only, what am I? And…

Billboard for a window company with the tagline, “If Not Now…When?”

It’s from steviesafespaces.com! I wore mine at Pride last year and ended up next to a woman in the same shirt for the parade and we did the Spiderman thing.

White woman in glasses and a KN95 mask wearing guillotine earrings and a shirt that reads “YOU WILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH ME” in the colors of the trans pride flag.

My husband and I refer to this tweet at least weekly re: our kids' fandoms.

Henpecked Hal tweet re: Pokémon, in which he notes that his son talking about it is a an attempt at bonding, but ends with "still, it's a hard no."

My friend who is allergic to cats just adopted this Sphinx and his name is BONES.

Exactly 12.

The poster’s 1992 Gameboy with all 12 games in her collection (Jurassic Park being acquired recently and never played).

MA’AMS!! IT IS STILL VERY HOT!!

A selfie of white woman in glasses with a dilute tortoiseshell cat curled over her right shoulder, while a tuxedo cat settles in on her lap. She is trying to read (there is an Xteink X4 on her lap).

Tweet from Kelsey D. Atherton @AthertonKD

Oh, you're experiencing a structural problem? Have you ever considered trying different personal choices instead?

“We will begin with a premise and provide ‘research’ and curricula that supports said premise.”

Sec. 3301.0717. (A) As used in this section, "success sequence" means a three-pronged framework for youth and young adults based on research from diverse institutions that individuals who complete at least a high school education, obtain full-time work, and marry before having children are overwhelmingly less likely to live in poverty in adulthood.
(B) The department of education and workforce shall review and maintain a list of curriculum and resources for grades six to twelve about the success sequence. Any curriculum or resources on this list shall include, and be consistent with, evidence, identified using the best research methods available, describing the positive personal and societal outcomes associated with the success sequence.

My husband and I refer to this constantly when our kids are on some new fandom. Same vibes.

Screenshot of a tweet from @HenpeckedHal:

It dawned on me today that when my son wants to talk about Pokémon, he doesn't *really* want to talk about Pokémon. What he wants is to share his excitement and knowledge. What he wants is to bond with his dad. What he wants is quality time together. Still, it's a hard no.

2/2 pool days and now a quarter of the way through this summer’s book club pick.

An Xteink X4 e-reader in a waterproof sleeve, held by the poster while she sits by the poolside.

Leveled up my summer reading game. Pool life = best life!

A beach towel with an Xteink X4 in a waterproof case. The cover display is the Midnight Circus by Erin Morgenstern.

A kid in a pool underwater. A grownup sits on the edge, feet in the water, with an Xteink X4 in hand (in a waterproof case).

An Xteink X4 in a waterproof case, in the hand of the poster, whose legs and feet are visible and half submerged in a pool.

I wake up every day thinking about this.

A graphic of Sinbad and 80s/90s text that reads “Real Talk! Let’s overthrow the Ohio legislature!”

Wendy@evavictorine· Jun 25

Samesies.

Saw my favorite girl last night (i.e., exploited my dad’s museum membership for tickets AND had him take me out to dinner)!

White woman in a Pride KN95 in front of Manet’s painting Gare Saint-Lazare (of a woman, modeled by Victorine Meurent, and child by a rail station).

A white woman in a Pride KN95 in front of the opening of the Manet & Morisot exhibit (the title is on the blue wall behind her).

For myself, bought an utterly enormous remote in a bright color for each brand of TV. For my spouse, just yesterday he fixed the bowing drawers of the dressers by screwing in little support thingies.

A cartoonishly enormous red remote with giant buttons (only the essentials) held in a woman’s hand (she has large hands and the remote dwarfs them).

Went on a hike today and saw a warning sign WITH HUMAN FIGURE for @allthebeset.bsky.social.

A warning sign on a trail in the CVNP that shows a figure tumbling awkwardly from a cliff edge.

Wendy@evavictorine· Jun 17

I mean, I measured before I bought the waterproof sleeve, but still can’t believe how perfectly it fits the Xteink 4 (pool life = best life).

An Xteink 4 in a waterproof sleeve, held in a person’s hand. The background is a black cat on a striped bedspread. The book is E.H. Lupton’s Dionysus in Wisconsin.

Wendy@evavictorine· Jun 16

Loooong.

Truly, Akron is blessed with many riches.

Everyone now! Teeth, teeth, TEETH, TEETH!!

In honor of the 2026 World Cup, here is me at the 2006 World Cup (K-town), capturing the mood PERFECTLY.

The poster, plus her friend and his friend, smiling at the camera. They are at a Fan Fest for the FIFA 2006 World Cup (almost certainly Kaiserslautern). It is night and they are VERY blurry (presumably because whoever took the picture had had a lot to drink).

Wendy@evavictorine· Jun 14

Cat tax.

A tuxedo cat face planted asleep on the bed.

Wendy@evavictorine· Jun 13

Here on my own kids in 2018, but I got a photo YESTERDAY of a friend’s kid wearing one of the shirts!

Two white toddlers in shorts and hand-printed dump truck shirts, standing in a truck.

Wendy@evavictorine· Jun 12

And look who’s sniffing around, trying not to look jealous!

A long skinny black cat looking up at the poster from beneath her (occupied) lap.

Wendy@evavictorine· Jun 12

I don’t know what I was expecting when I sat down to read, but I suppose it should have been this.

A white woman with bangs and glasses sits in an armchair with a tiny and beautiful dilute tortoiseshell cat tucked up under her chin. A tuxedo cat sits awkwardly on her lap.

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy. (Not exactly a meme? H/t @brinsonmarie.bsky.social!)

A drawing of the tyrannosaurus Rex from Jurassic Park, but in colors of the trans flag (and the banner reads “LIFE FINDS A WAY” instead of the original text).

Wendy@evavictorine· Jun 4

Well, well, well, look at who finally has a complete set of the Graphic Canon series thanks to the sale at @sevenstories.bsky.social!! They join Gilgamesh (not pictured, but beloved) and the top two religion-y ones (also newly arrived).
