I'm all for writing down dream notes in the middle of the night while things are still fresh, but I just found this from some time earlier this year. ...I have no idea.

when your gorgeous longhair lady cat loves nothing more than rolling in dirt.

Lyla has had enough yardwork.

Sarah's debut novel just got here! Tobi called first reads, the little punk, but I'm next on the list. @slhawthorn.bsky.social

belated post for caturday, our little sweet ball of fluff (and by that I mean her brain) got herself into an awkward spot yesterday.

one of Lyla's favorite spots in summer months-- a cool butt is a happy butt.

screen grab from Artemis/Integrity's feed just before it went into comms downtime. way to go, folks.

black and white view of space, with a round part of the craft visible on the left, then the moon, mostly in shadow but with a lit crescent part on its right side, and the much smaller and more distant earth, similar crescent visible, to the right of the moon.

the queen of the printer here just hit the copy button several times. this could get interesting.

a dark, fluffy cat sitting on a printer (where she should not be) and judging the universe...and as it turns out, hitting buttons and making copies.

ALL DAY COMFORT was discarded here. #SuddenGroceryArt

A shelf in a grocery store, with bulk candy bags: Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Starburst, Snickers fun size bars...on top of one is a package of plain white calf-length athletic socks, with the label ALL DAY COMFORT.

Lyla and Skully, come to help me write. fluffy, deadly inspiration.

Lyla doesn't know who you are or what you want, but she has a particular set of skills-- skills that make her a nightmare for people like you. If you sign up for the TL;DR Press 2K Terrors contest now, that'll be the end of it. But if you don't, she will find you. www.eventbrite.com/e/2k-terrors...

an empty hallway leading to stairs in the distance. just visible at the top of the stairs, a fluffy white kitten gazes balefully at you. the threat is unspoken, but palpable. you must commit to the horror writing contest.

HEYA WRITEY TYPES, this is your periodic reminder to back up your work. if you don't do backups, now is a great time to start. if you can swing it, have one backup on site, another off site. email, cloud drives, github, dropbox are free and reasonably simple. GO FORTH AND BACK UP.

a choice was made here. I can't believe it's not vodka. #suddengroceryart

a grocery store shelf featuring various bottles of various spray margarine, various boxes of stick margarine, and in the middle, one bottle of smirnoff vodka lying on its side.

the world is a whole lot better for Jane Goodall having been in it. rest in peace, dear lady.

one of these three took out a lady cardinal today. no one's talking, but we know who did it. (hint: the one who isn't declawed and the one who doesn't have a bum front leg) didn't expect this caturday to have a body count.

three cats eating from colorful bowls on the kitchen floor. the middle one, unburdened by guilt as he horks down his canned food, is the cardinal murderer.

[insert "think out of the box" joke here], happy #caturday from Lyla

a white kitten with black tail has crawled inside a small box from an eight-pack of soda cans, and she is looking from it directly at the camera.

I don't want to alarm anyone, but apparently squirrel stalking has the power to unite us and cause us to put aside our petty hatreds.
