It's that kind of day. Only substitute "reality" for "Photo"
The really old Facebook Image Feedback dialog box. It reads "What's Going On?" followed by four options. Option 1: It's annoying or not interesting Option 2: I'm in this photo and I don't like it Option 3: I think it shouldn't be on Facebook Option 4: It's Spam Option 2 (I'm in this photo and I don't like it) is selected.

Image shows an orange cat’s belly and back legs, sitting on a human lap. The human is holding the cat’s left rear paw and the cat’s right rear leg is outstretched Upper center of the image, on the human’s left knee is a pair of cat nail clippers. The cat is very unhappy and this is not at all how she envisioned cuddle-time with dad when she jumped into his lap.

Image shows a very green back yard. At the bottom is part of a concrete porch painted blue. Both a gray and red stone walkway are visible on either side of a support post for the porch overhang. A couple of potted bushes are visible in the background in front of a brown wooden fence Image shows dog lying on a blue patterned rug on a brown wooden floor, happily covered in a brown towel, getting dried off after being out in the rain. It’s his favorite thing ever! (After food. And pets. And people. And food.)

Tonight's dinner by Shado, included a slightly fancier than normal plating.

Farfalle Pasta in Pesto Cream Sauce topped with Pan-seared Chicken Thighs (dressed only with Salt and Pepper) with a side of roasted brussel sprouts drizzled with a Brown Sugar/Honey/Lemon Juice/Olive Oil glaze.
A hand on the left side of the image holds a white plate bearing the meal described in the post. The pesto pasta topped with chicken is on the left side, and 8 brussel sprout halves carefully arranged are on the right side.

Assembled Rabble of the Internet, I give you a Venn Diagram.

#ADHDSky #ExecutiveDysfunction #ADHDLife
A Venn Diagram with two overlapping circles labelled “Chores I don’t want to do” and “Chores I need to do” The two circles intersect by more than 99% indicating these two data sets are the same.

Image shows several animals in a bedroom: a giant brown dog lying on a rug, a gray car sitting on the foot of a bed, a ginger cat sitting on a box, and a black cat peeking around the corner of the bed. All are waiting expectantly for their bedtime treats.

I don’t know whether to be proud, or ashamed, that my dog understands how to eat food off a fork. Gently. He has better fork manners than some humans I know (including me)

Me: How does your butt taste?

Gwydion (a cat): Butt-y dad. Which is not to be confused with buttery. Tho I also like butter.

Me: More or less than butt?

Gwydion: Differently dad. Just differently

Dear Kitten: why are there nose prints all over the TV screen? #catsky
An image of a flatscreen TV with a reflection od 5 lightbulbs. All around the bulbs are several smears indicative of a cat poking its nose into the screen as it tries to catch the moving images on it.

Kings of Tupelo on Netflix was a wild, wild ride. And Lys may hate me for making her watch it

Velcro, the amazing orange kitty was all comfy asleep in mom’s lap until I brought mom some Chicken Tortilla Soup. Then Velcro woke up and demanded @lys1022.bsky.social share it with her.
A photo of an orange and white kitty, on a brown blanket in a human’s lap, underneath a TV tray, licking the end of a human finger to eat the tasty tasty soup.
