Two postcards from my collection - one unsent, one mailed in 1908.
Two white postcards side-by-side. The one on the left shows two young cats first thing through a wall of paper. The one on the right shows one young cat burst it through a wall of paper. They are black-and-white photos which have been lightly colorized.

Peccadillo [pek-uh-DIL-oh]
(n.)
- A slight offense or minor sin.

From Spanish “pecadillo” diminutive of “pecado” (a sin) from Latin “peccatum” (a sin, fault, error)

Used in a sentence:
“He supposed, in the strictest accounting of moral ledgers, that the heist was no mere peccadillo.”

Beauty. From a negative in my collection, no date/info.
Photo of a shorthaired black kitten lying on a chair draped with white cloth. It's a gorgeous, close portrait taken with the skill of a professional.

Diva. 💅 Postcard from my collection, mailed 1916.
Black and white photo of a very fluffy silver tabby in a close up portrait. The cat looks like it’s posing, like it’s a professional on a modeling job.

I started working on the CatacombGL source port again. In the coming months I would like to get rid of the "beta" tag and work towards a proper version 1.0.0.

Currently I'm working on a fun feature: support for the Catacomb 3-D Big Box as published by @johnromero.bsky.social in 2024.

Big and Little Spoons

xkcd.com/3166/
4-panel comic. (1) PERSON 1: Some people like to be the big spoon. (2) PERSON 1: Some people like to be the little spoon. (3) [two sets of spoons that don’t lay flat against each other, one arranged with the little one on top of the big one, the other with the big spoon on top of the little spoon] PERSON 1: And some brave truth-tellers point out that the metaphor makes no sense because different-sized spoons don’t nest right *either* way. You nest *same*-sized spoons. (4) PERSON: ...And apparently *we* sleep on the couch. PERSON 2 off-screen: Why are you *still* going on about the spoon thing? PERSON 1: Because I’m *right!*

Very dapper man with premium kitten accessories. Photo from my collection, no date/info.
A light brown skinned man, maybe central or South American, in a light striped shirt, bow tie, and Panama-style hat at a jaunty angle sits on roughhewn wooden bench with a black cat and tabby cat scooped up in his arms. The tabby seems to be trying to make an exit.
