He sits
An orange tabby cat site with his haunches on a pillow and his front legs propped up on the headboard. He leans over the back of the headboard to look out the window behind it at the sunlit trees outside

Yes I have a girlfriend but Cheez-It is the most handsome valentine ♥️
An orange and white tabby cat lounges on slate blue sheets. His front legs stretch out into a patch of sunlight and his yellow eyes look at the camera.

And sometimes they're just little guys
An ivory netsuke of a very blobby-looking sparrow. It's looking off to the left and its triangular wings jut out from its sides. An ivory netsuke of an octopus climbing on something, perhaps a piece of driftwood. The octopus has a furrowed brow, a circular tube mouth, and round, shocked-looking eyes. An ivory netsuke of a puppy. The puppy has huge black eyes, a round head, and is curled up, almost cowering away from the camera. An ivory netsuke of a rabbit by Ōhara Mitsuhiro. Its round body is mostly obscured by its huge ears as it looks upward with a placid expression.

But people got really into the Aesthetic, so as a result you get tiny sculptures that go ridiculously hard for absolutely no reason
An ivory netsuke of three rats. One rat faces to the left, one faces away from the viewer, and one peeks over the back of the one in front. They have black eyes and dark, fur-textured patches. They all have details such as ears, whiskers, tails, paws, and noses. The piece is about an inch tall. A wooden netsuke of a chicken crouching towards the ground. It has a cock, a come, a waddle, and different textures of feathers: fine towards the front and larger on the wings and tail. The ground that it stands on is polished. The piece is about an inch tall. A wooden netsuke of a recumbent ox. Its horns, nostrils, top lip, and toenails are polished to a shine while the rets of it is carved with a fine fur texture. Its tail is curled around its left leg and its vertebrae are visible in its back as it lifts its head. The piece is about an inch tall. A wooden netsuke of a walking turtle. The dark wood is polished to a shine, but the neck, legs, and shell of the turtle are all carved with different textures. The piece is less than an inch tall

FUCK yes people are liking my netsuke post so it's time to yell about netsuke. According to my understanding (and also WIkipedia) they were originally just purely functional stoppers to keep your external pocket box/purse from falling our of your pants sash.
A sketch showing the use of netsuke. It shows the waist of a person wearing hakama (traditional japanese pants tied with a sash). There is a box hanging from the person's sash from a string, the top of which has a little ball that keeps it from falling through.

This is why I love Japanese netsuke, which are about 50% Little Guys by volume
Plump Sparrow from the Asian Art Museum. It is an ivory sparrow with little beady black coral eyes. It is so flat and so wide. It has little carved wings sticking out of its body at a downward angle and a little tail sticking up at the back and a thin, wide beak

Good morning from this weird slug I found

Excellent cat spotted in my neighborhood. Gorgeous! No notes!

Currently in a crowd chanting "gay bus" at this bus

Cheez-It is our former stray who has gone from refusing pets to sitting in my lap while I play video games. He is still very moody, but he is also my sweet handsome boy and I love him!
Cheez-It, an orange tabby with gold eyes, looks at the camera. He is half illuminated by the window next to him. Outside are tree branches covered in snow.

Looking at Tears of the Kingdom cosplays for Halloween and... it would be crazy to show up at a party with one whole titty out, right? Right, right of course, right...
Cosplay outfit of Link's archaic tunic from Tears of the Kingdom. The gray tunic has one sleeve and leaves one side of the chest bare.

This is Cheez-It. He's a little miscreant but also very photogenic.
Cheez-It, an orange and white mackerel tabby, sits on the corner of a bed with his front feet out, hanging off the edge. He's looking at the camera and has a name tag shaped like a slice of cheese.

The Creation of Adam
At a McDonald's drive-thru, a hand is extended out the service window. Another hand is extended out of a mini-van towards it supporting a bearded dragon.

Good morning from Cheez-It
Cheez-It, an orange and white mackerel tabby, lays on a bed with his back against a pillow. His belly is facing towards the camera, and he's curled so his head is almost upside-down

A normal guy who sits normally

Reskeet with an album that made you cry (tough to pick just one, tbh)
The album cover for Survival Sounds by Rubblebucket. It shows a figure covered in purple flowers on a purple background. On their head the figure wears a ring of pink roses and carnations with white fur in the center. The figure also has gold leaves on one shoulder, a diagonal blue sash, a large pink rose in the center of their chest and a four-stranded turquoise necklace
