We are ready for trick or treaters!

I've been informed that Knick Pnack has stolen my night shirt to put in his bed and now I have to go do a little cry about it.
A gray-muzzled black and white dog has his head pillowed on his paw in a lap covered with a fluffy blanket. He looks content.

This is Knick Pnack. He's an ~8yo border collie mix. I adopted him 10 days ago. He's a polite lil guy and he was nervous at first, but is adjusting well to having a home.
A black and white dog on a blue plaid leash is sitting on a boardwalk with one paw slightly raised. He has a happy grin.

I'm TRYING to wash all our dog beds in preparation for an incoming new addition to our house and it's becoming a challenge to get them put back together.

I'm working from home and seem to have gained a new manager.
A gray and white cat is loafed with her gray tail curled around her body on a wooden table next to a yellow candle with a window facing a lush green yard directly behind her. She has her face tilted back as if she is looking over her shoulder at the camera.

Obsessed with this mug they gave me with brunch
A picture of a coffee mug with a smiling cartoon dog face with a yellow spot over one eye. The mug has dog ears. The bottom half of the mug is decorated with red stripes.

I've picked up rock painting as a hobby and my favorite thing about it that I make a cute little product and then yeet it back out into the neighborhood so it doesn't clutter up my house gathering dust. Surprisingly therapeutic.
A painted rock with a pale gold background and the blue silhouette of a cat painted with rings of pale blue, pink, and purple dots. A painted rock with a copper background and four black soot sprites modeled after the soot sprite characters in My Neighbor Tototo and Spirited Away. They are round and black and fluffy with big white and black cartoonist eyes. Two Halloween inspired painted rocks. The first has a ghostly green background and three black silhouettes of pumpkins with yellow faces. The second is a deep blue starlit sky with a full moon. In the foreground is the silhouette of a cat perched on a fence.

Lol I'm so excited for you! They're completely campy and full of stuff you don't need, but there's something charming about walking through them looking for the occasional gem.

I spotted the location for ours just yesterday.

Jim is hot. That is all.
Jim from the TV show Our Flag Means Death, mid-scream, sporting a new side-shave hair style, lower half of their face painted black, slightly blurry as they charge mid pirate battle, is undeniably hot

This one kind of gave me pause. I'm open to other interpretations, but is Ed shooting the ghost of his dad...?
Ed Teach points a gun at a large man dressed in gray rags with ropes hanging from his clothes. Behind them appear to be tents or other rustic shelter

I love how Frenchie's fierce piratesona while part of Ed's crew is a cat. It's perfect. 10/10. No notes!
Frenchie from the show Our Flag Means Death howls (or maybe meows?) While covered in blood, mid battle, with battle claws sticking through his fingers. He is wearing messy dark eye makeup and looks unwashed and unshaven

I'm full weeping at the Ed and Stede cake toppers
The scene shows 2 cake toppers, one of a blonde man in a peach suit, the other wearing a green dress, it's head repainted to have long black hair and dark eye makeup similar to that of Blackbeard

Why yes, I AM combing through the OFMD S2 trailer frame by frame. It's called a HOBBY, Brenda.
A screenshot of Stede Bonnet, Wee John, and some of the other crew of the Revenge from the TV show Our Flag Means Death. They are mid dramatic scream and dressed in drag.

Our house temporarily has a dog in it! It's felt unnaturally empty since Tess's passing, but this week we will be hosting Keeley Jones while her people are on vacation. She is 7 months old, enjoys playing tug, and desperately wants to be friends with my cat Petra.
A little black and white dog with large black ears standing up grins up at the camera while standing in the grass. She's wearing a pink harness and her tongue is hanging out.

Last night was a tough one as we said goodbye to my sweet old girl, Tess. I'm heartbroken beyond words, even though she was deep into her golden years and I knew this day would come sooner or later. She was the goodest girl, always.
A black lab mix laying on the floor grins up at the camera, a blue squeaky toy in the shape of a bone with the word "shalom" on it resting on her feet.

Did nobody in marketing at Sprinkles notice this cupcake is a titty?
An advertisement image for a Sprinkles cupcake depicting a cupcake with white frosting and a dark pink circle in the center with a smaller, lighter pink circle inside of it, reminiscent of a breast with aeriola and nipple.

To add to this
A screenshot of a tweet by Wayne Sutton that says "Whelp, @twitter name so coming off the building right now but @elonmusk didn't get permit for the equipment on the street so @SFPD is shutting it down." There are three images with a building and construction equipment attached.

Look at this cat just look at her
A gray and white cat is curled up in a wooden planter box. Her cheek is resting on the edge and her eyes are partially open as she glances back at the camera.

Cackling at this pic from 2020 that just showed up in my memories.
A woman in a leather plague mask shaped like a bird head sips iced coffee from Dutch Bros through a straw while sitting in an office. The white board behind her reads "Have a good day + happy pandemic!"
