And that's how we ended up with custody of an adorable little possum for five hours. Eventually someone showed up and took him to the vet to be (hopefully) patched up. He'd recovered enough he could curl up his tail by the time his chauffeur got here, so his odds seemed good.
Anyhow, LOOK AT HIM.

I'm sorry, but 'good person' is not a definable characteristic in a fucking job ad.

Yeah, sure, some of you are having snow and beautiful weather, but *we* are having produce delivery day with an entire tray of mangoes and also two kilos of cherries!

I thought, oh, I'll take a cute video of this for Blair.
Then he decided that actually, he loves bok choy and will eat it for us, thank you so much. He tried to go back for more!
(Sound not recommended; it's cute chomping noises but loud human 'what the fuck' when I realised what was happening.)

Hey who wants to see everyone's best friend Mr Bingley again?
(everyone wants that)
Yesterday was grocery delivery day! Shocking no one, this meant more bok choy. Also cucumbers and mushrooms and peaches and things like that.
Inspector Bingley, nebby little shit, was on the case. Inspecting.

It is once again dawn, and I am once again about to pour myself into bed rather belatedly, but maybe a kitten first?
Goblet (not his legal name, but the only thing I ever call him) looking very intent in the cat tube yesterday morning.

Oh, *great* news, I've remembered that we can do video here now, which means that I can offer you something wonderful: Mr Bingley doing his 'please pay attention to me' dance, which he does constantly. (And, yes, he's only got three legs; he's very cute and tragic.)

Please admire my bowl. The top of it is only slightly smaller than my outstretched hand, and it's about 2" deep. It is *incredibly* pleasing to hold, just in a tactile sense.

Sometimes I worry that we don't have very good eating habits. Other times I spend twenty minutes trying to tetris part of today's grocery delivery into the fridge and I'm like yeah no we're fine actually.
(don't @ me about the plastic. i can't change how it comes, and the two ziptops get reused)

![a grocery store ad for apple cabin foods, but it's nonsense. the headline reads NEAT 2 EAT? GO ON AND HAVE IT. in a yellow bubble, it says 'if u want it? it's 4 sale ok if you need 2 ask ASK'
there are several foods shown—peas in pods, which are labelled 'yep these are GREEN TODDS'; shrimp that are labelled 'hey look it's SALTY PALS,' pork loin that's labelled 'memorable TIGER BEEFS', a sandwich with a bite out of it labelled 'deli sweepins gently used', a pile of ground coffee labelled 'goat dust not 4 teens', and—my faovurite—pickles, which are labelled 'vinegar husbands 18+ bring in [imaage cuts off]'](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:weew3akqjocl3nolq7bix4c3/bafkreiaaf2vzjxsnx3bnimqk5pzppmk7sz6a3zymsxdbcgoofwiscdrtc4@jpeg)

Vinegars: rice, black, raspberry, malt, cider, balsamic-fig, white wine, plum, balsamic-pomegranate…

for reasons that don't need to be looked at too closely (ants) i'm having to clean out the kitchen cupboards, and just like. to check. how many types of sugar do you think the average household needs? probably at least this many, right?
(the sugar was *not* what the ants got into, don't @ me.)

Ohhhhh can you kiss his little nose please?
My Mr Bingley is mostly my wife's cat, but he tolerates me, sometimes, and brings piles of stuffed fish toys to our bed, and also has hilariously curly stomach fur. (His brother, Mr Darcy, is mostly my cat.)

i threw both images into photoshop and made them the same size, then reduced the opacity on the smile one to 50%, and got this—the smile is ai; the only parts of the image that change at all are his mouth and eye crinkles.

Hm, yes, I see.
How does Fiasco feel about this situation? I fear that my little guys might find it very appealing.
My full-size bottles are on a little spice shelf in the shelving next to my desk, but the samples live...everywhere, honestly. It's a disaster.
