How Pete naps to rest up for another round of screaming about starvation, full-contact lovebites, and stealing food from the old lady cat. Go crimez!
Pete Lattimeow is napping on the ottoman with a deeply smug smirk on his face. He is orange with white paws, tummy, and chin. Pete is sprawling on the ottoman next to my feet. Pete is an orange and white cat, and I am white with a tattoo of two roses forming a heart just above my right ankle.

Since my account has basically become a Pete appreciation feed, here he is helping me unravel a thrifted sweater. It's a blend of cotton, rayon, cashmere, and cat spit. #OneOrangeBrainCell
The orange menace named Pete is looking over his shoulder with blue yarn trailing from his naughty, bitey little mouth. An orange cat named Pete is chewing on a strand of blue yarn, with the ball of yarn in his paws

Pete's helping me with the recycling. #cats #OneOrangeBrainCell #WhatOrangeBrainCell
A flattened cardboard box is on the floor next to a yellow ottoman. Pete, the orange and white cat, has flopped on the box with his white paws and tummy on display.

I use an old flannel sheet for a yoga/exercise mat. Then this happened. I just cannot work out under these conditions.

My son took this picture of me last... Thanksgiving? Christmas?
A middle aged white lady sits at the dinner table with a plate of mashed potatoes and roast beast. Instead of her usual eyeglasses, she is wearing eyewear with integrated headband and matching necklace, all constructed of brightly colored toy ... shapes.

This degen has the unmitigated gall to critique my laundry folding technique
The orange and white cat named Pete has positioned himself in the middle of the stacks of folded laundry. A black t shirt is draped over one of his shoulders, and he's clawing at a pair of underwear. Pete has flopped over in the middle of the laundry, displaying his perfect white tummy and his disregard for my housekeeping efforts.

This fuckin guy just does whatever he wants #cats
A blue five-gallon bucket stands in front of a cluttered shelf. The lid of the bucket is askew because there is a cat with his head and shoulders in the bucket, happily munching on the yummy cat food inside. Pete's orange bunny-tailed hindquarters are protruding from the blue bucket.

A four-panel cartoon. In the first panel, a doctor tells the patient, "You have Gondorrhea". In the second panel, the patient says "What?" In the third panel, the patient's crotch ignites with a Fwoom. In the fourth panel, on a distant hillside visible through the window, the next beacon fire is lit. GONDOR CALLS FOR AID!

For the new moon, I planted a couple of new plants for the Autumn garden. Borage, Marjoram, and Summer savory. ##TheOutpost 🌱 #NewMoon #WitchSky
A black plastic seed starting tray sits on my kitchen table. In the background are an old plastic ice cream pail (the Seed Bucket), a bag of seed starting mix, and my coffee cup. In the foreground, leaning against the seedling tray, are three seed packets. From left to right, they are Summer Savory (Satureja hortensis) from Sow True Seed, Marjoram (Origanum majorana) from Sow True Seed, and Borage from Back To The Roots.

It's finished! Three-ply Falklands Merino/Zwartbles in colorway Pomegranate. Final weight is 96 grams, 169 yards/154 meters. Here it is on the bobbin and skeined up. I think the color in the first picture is truer to life. #WitchSky #YarnSky #Spinning
My hand is holding a spinning wheel bobbin with red yarn on it. I filled the bobbin really unevenly. There are thick parts and thin parts, making the bobbin look almost like a pottery vase. My hand, holding a skein of handspun red yarn on a black background

I was hoping to spin all three singles for this yarn on my spindle, but it was just too slow. I am offering the finished yarn for a silent auction benefiting the Transgender Law Project. Here's a picture of the second single on my wheel. Now I'm back on track to meet the deadline!
A small Road Bug model spinning wheel sits on the floor between my feet. Looped on the brake tension and orifice hook is a blue bandana wrapped in red wool. The loose wool is becoming a thin yarn, which flows up, through the flyer orifice, around a flyer hook, and onto the bobbin.

Here's a couple of pics of my progress on the yarn for the silent auction, plus the wrist distaff I made out of a bandana.

I know it's Caturday but here's Tristan practicing his wizard spells.
A little brown dog is laying on a crumpled plaid blanket and waving his magical paw, which is very blurry. Rio, the little black and white dog, is in the background with a gray sheet draped over her butt.

Guess what?

Cat butt.

I usually take pics of Pete's face, but he's got a cute little bunny tail.
Pete, the orange and white cat, is relaxing on his windowsill. This picture shows his lower back, tail, and one hind paw. The background is my brilliantly lit front yard full of foliage.

The boys are protecting me from the scary sky noise booms.
In the foreground, on my lap, Pete the orange and white cat is looking up at a lightning flash outside. In the background, on the ottoman next to my feet, is Shadow, the big black dog.

Pete's favorite hangout spot is the windowsill in our bathroom. Yes, there's a large window directly in front of the shitter.

Defecation fenestration.
Shhh. Pete, the orange and white cat, is napping peacefully on a windowsill. Through the window is a view of my front yard, dominated by the bright green foliage of camellia and azalea bushes and a dogwood tree. Pete woke up just enough to look at my hand. He's still lounging on the windowsill with a view of bright green trees and bushes.

Do you guys wanna see a little turtle?

(The collection of yarn on a Turkish spindle is called a turtle. No reptiles were harmed in the production of this skeet.)
My hand, holding a Turkish spindle with a small turtle of red yarn. In the background is a small rose bush. There's a slight optical illusion with my black nail polish blending with the black flower pot, making my thumb look weird. My hand, against the same potted rose bush. I am holding the same turtle of red yarn, but this time, I have removed the spindle and its cross arms. The yarn is a darker, more brownish red than the roses. The little turtle is on its back on my kitchen table.

My supervisor wants to know if I'm done folding the laundry yet
There's a white plastic laundry basket on the floor. In the basket sits an orange and white cat named Pete. Pete is sniffing the edge of the white laundry basket.

Blueberry cobbler.
A 9 by 13 glass baking dish is sitting on a knitted hot pad on a kitchen counter. The dish contains blueberry cobbler. The cobbler top is golden brown, and the blueberries peeking through at the edges are deep murky purple.

Make it stop raining so we can go walkies, please.
I'm sitting up in bed and Shadow, the big black dog, has propped his chin on my leg. His pose shows off his white front toes. He's looking at my wife, who is off camera next to me on the bed. In the background, past the rumpled plaid blanket, is Rio, the little black and white dog.

Time to cash out the 401k.
A claw machine full of rubber duckies. In the center of the photo is a valkyrie duckie. She has blond braids from under her helmet, and she carries a blue shield 🛡 Valkyrie duckie. In a world of ducks waiting for fate to pluck them up, one duck prepares to ride forth and choose the slain! To battle! For glory! Quack!

Pete is trying really hard to avoid the traveling brain cell
Pete, the orange cat, is sticking his head under the ottoman and kicking up at the sides of it Pete is thoroughly looking around the underside of the ottoman and kicking the dog's bone
