I found a company in China that sells cat-sized tents. Teddy is a fan. #catsofmastodon
A tabby cat rests comfortably inside its tiny, cat-sized tent. Its relaxed posture and direct gaze suggest it is at ease in this environment, which could be designed to mimic a natural hiding spot for cats. The tent's material looks sturdy and suitable for providing warmth and security, which are essential factors for a cat's comfort.

I think CVS is owned by Satan, and here's my proof.
A package on a drugstore shelf. It is named ColoTest, and the subtitle says "Immunochemical Fecal Occult Blood Test."

Having fun with my new (to me) laser color printer and vinyl paper.
A collage, top and bottom. The top image is Michael Scott from the office with long hair, with the label 'Clean.' The bottom image is of Prison Mike from the Office, who is just Michael Scott in a purple bandana. The label there says 'DIRTY' in a graffiti style.

Hmmm... This feels incongruent.
The image shows a robotic arm with a Gameboy Camera mounted on top of it. The camera is displaying an image that appears to be a video or photograph of a person's face. The robotic arm has two arms and a gripper at the end. The setting appears to be an indoor room with a patterned rug on the floor. There are also some papers and other items scattered around the room, indicating that this might be a workspace or a living area where the robotic arm is being used for various tasks. The time displayed on the camera's screen is 10:30 PM, which could indicate that the image was captured during the evening hours. Overall, the image shows a Gameboy Camera mounted to an automatic, robotic gimbal.

I took a walk and found a free 3d printer on the ground.
The image shows a 3D printer with a pink piece of paper inside it. The printer appears to be a desktop model, commonly used for hobbyists and professionals alike. It has a black frame with blue accents on the edges, which are likely LED indicators for power status, print progress, and other operational information. The pink paper is placed in the center of the printer's build plate, which is where the 3D printing process takes place. The paper says "FREE 3D PRINTER." In terms of functionality, this type of printer uses a layer-by-layer method to create objects by depositing material (usually plastic) onto a build plate. It is capable of producing complex geometries and can print on various materials such as ABS, PLA, TPU, and more. The printer's design suggests it could be used for both educational purposes and professional applications in fields like engineering, prototyping, and manufacturing. Please note that the image does not provide any information about the specific model of the 3D printer or its manufacturer.

the wooly mouse lives in my head rent free (and soon, in my crawl space)
The image shows two small rodents, which appear to be woolen mice, standing on a white surface. They have short tails and are looking away from the viewer. Below them is a scale, suggesting they might be weighed. The headline reads, "Scientists Made a 'Wooly Mouse' in Quest to Resurrect Mammoths." The byline is by Becky Ferreria, dated March 8, 2025. This was originally clipped from a story about scientists using CRISPR to insert genes isolated from Wooly Mammoth remains into a living host, which created a mouse with one type of fur texture that Woolly Mammoths most likely had.

He was harbor, He was haven, He was heaven, He was home. He was warm smile, He was soft voice, He was tears. Strong and tender, like a river; and His heart beat like a bird's. How I long to hear those wings beat close again.
A portrait of `Abdu'l-bahá `Abbás, the second leader of the Bahá'í Faith, and considered by Bahá'ís to be "The First Bahá'í," as He was born in 1844 CE, when His father, Bahá'u'lláh, began following the Messianic Íslamic religion of a man from southern Iran named "The Báb" (Arabic for, 'The City Gate'). `Abdu'l-bahá `Abbás is facing to the left of the frame. He is wearing a traditional, Ottoman-style white turban. He is an older man, with a weathered, but attentive appearance, bushy white eyebrows, and a crooked, pointed nose. He has a long, rounded, white beard, similar to the style that Shi'ia Muslims use. He is also wearing a long, two part tunic, which is a Persian garment named an "`Abba." The photo is black and white, very textured, and appears to have been taken in the 1910s, in the decade between when `Abdu'l-Bahá was released from Ottoman prison following WW1, and when He passed away in 1921 at age 77.

It's so funny to me that my biggest cat is both the most skilled hunter AND the kindest, gentlest cat. If you are scratching her too hard, she will gently place her paw on the top of your hand and place it where it is better used.

a phone tree (an old fashioned method of disseminating news quickly in tight-knit communities — someone at the top speaks to three coordinators, who then communicate to three more people, and so on, and so on. in theory, it allows news to move in an exponential rate. in reality it was just old people gossiping.

The American governance situation right now in a nutshell.
The image shows two screenshots from the television show 'Mythbusters.'. The screenshots feature Jaime Hyneman with a beard and mustache, wearing glasses and a beret. In the first screenshot, he is speaking to someone off-camera, saying "The only thing we have left to try..." In the second screenshot, he finishes the line: "the only thing we have left to try is a larger stream of urine." Jaime appears to be in a humorous or comedic situation.

thank you, professor. please, continue.
The early printed word of the early Aztec Civilization is quite interesting, as it contains only pictographs. It was not until the colonial era that Aztec scribes, after learning the Roman alphabet, began to incorporate text into their codices, both in Nahuatl (the native language) and Spanish.[3] As a result, it is unknown whether Aztec codices were created by a native method or created with the help of imported methods after the arrival of the Spanish.[2]

I took a trip down memory lane and found the time I got a story carried on 'Consumerist' after one of my Valentine's Day cards got stolen by All Saints Apparel.
A screenshot of the site 'Consumerist.com.' A tshirt is the header image. The design is of a heart made from individual Tetris pieces. The news article reads as so: "All Saints Apparel Plagiarizes Shirt Design From Gaming Site 4 Color Rebellion By consumeristcarey 2.23.08 Posh London retailer AI Saints Apparel plagiarized a shirt design from the gaming site 4 color rebellion. The site originally unveiled the You Complete Me' tetris-heart figure for Valentine's Day in 2006. Designer Mitch was surprised to find that All Saints had plastered the exact same design on a shirt selling for £40-that's like, $90! Mitch asked All Saints for an explanation, which was enough to prompt a decent resolution."

The image shows a person dressed in a vibrant costume, resembling a bird with large wings and a colorful headpiece. They are holding up a blanket featuring the logo of the Philadelphia Eagles, which is an American football team.

A crowd of Eagles revelers on North Broad street, next to City Hall. There are a line of Port-a-Potties meant for people who gotta take a dump. But there are a couple dozen people just sitting on top of them, including one person in repose, like a renaissance painting. It's a clear day. A shot of one of my favorite buildings in Philadelphia, the Wannamaker Building. It sits adjacent to City Hall (also called 'Center Square'), and casts this really intimidating shadow against the street. It's made of granite and sandstone, like a lot of skyscrapers from the 1930s. A large gathering of people in a city street, many wearing green and white attire associated with sports teams. The atmosphere is festive, and electric because of the recent Eagles Superbowl victory. The image captures a lively scene at an outdoor gathering where people are seen celebrating or participating in the Eagles 2025 Superbowl victory parade. In the foreground, there is a toddler riding their parent's shoulders, wearing a dark blue football helmet with "EAGLES" written on it and matching jersey. This individual is being carried by another fan who has their back facing us; this carrier wears a black jersey with the name BARKLEY on it. Behind these two individuals, we see several other fans dressed in various attire related to football teams or casual wear suitable for an outdoor event during cooler weather. The crowd is very dense. The background is Philadelphia City Hall, which is a very pretty building.

The image shows a view from inside a vehicle, likely a bus, looking out through a window at an urban landscape. The sky is clear and blue, suggesting it's daytime with good weather. In the foreground, there are reflections on the glass that indicate sunlight is shining on the window. The cityscape includes buildings of various heights and designs, indicating a mix of architectural styles. There is a prominent sign with the text "HELL YEAH" in large white letters against a blue background. The sign is likely an advertisement or a branding element for a business or event. The water body appears to be a river or canal, and there are bridges visible across it. The overall scene suggests the vehicle is traveling along a road adjacent to the waterway, possibly in a downtown area of a city. The image shows a city skyline with tall buildings under a clear blue sky. In the foreground, there's a traffic light and a street sign. Above the buildings, there is skywriting which reads, "... T 7AM ON 7ABC," which appears to be plugging an event on a local ABC television affiliate. The image shows a large crowd of people gathered on a city street, likely celebrating an event or participating in a parade. In the background, there are tall buildings, with huge crowds. This is related to a Super Bowl event taking place in Philadelphia. The sky is clear and blue, suggesting good weather conditions for outdoor activities. There are traffic lights and street signs visible at the bottom of the image. The style of the image is candid and appears to capture a moment of public celebration or gathering. There are Eagles jerseys as far as the eye can see, with the crowd terminating at a line of dump trucks with people standing on top of them. A crowd of Eagles revelers gather at the base of City Hall, in an area known as Dilworth Plaza.
