Playing Stray finally. Obligatory PC cat plus actual cat pic ✨️
Photo of my cat R2D2, a white snowshoe with gray tail and points and blue eyes. On the TV screen behind him is the playable orange cat in the video game 'Stray', facing the same way as R2.

Well. I suppose I'll just change the channel later then.

On top of the world one moment, sitting among the ruins the next
A photo of an apartment entryway. In the center is a white snowshoe cat with dark gray points, nose and tail, sitting on a 12-pack of toilet paper which is stacked upon a similarly-sizes package of bottled water. The cat is looking up at the ceiling. He is a ridiculous baby. A photo of an apartment entryway. In the center is a white snowshoe cat with dark gray points, nose and tail, lying on a 12-pack of toilet paper which is stacked upon a similarly-sizes package of bottled water. The cat's eyes are closed, one paw hangs down over the edge of his throne, and his head is tilted down and to the side. He is a ridiculous baby. The same cat from the previous two photos (snowshoe, white with gray nose, ears, tail), now in the kitchen, sitting on the counter in the empy plastic wrapping from the bottled water. He is facing away from the camera, eith head turned to look over his shoulder. He looks almost sad, but this is a lie intended to persuade me to let him destroy some laundry. Nice try, Artoo.

Elegant. Poised. A true professional.

He is so cute. But he has been there for so long.

When will the feeling in my feet come home from the war
Photo of a white cat with gray ears and tail curled in a loose ball on top of crossed legs in green pajama pants, one paw hanging down and one braced against the edge of a nearby table. The cat's weight is right on top of where the feet will be crossed beneath him.

There he is. Darling kitty cat. Sweet angel baby. Farting up a storm. Cute as a button.

Some morning pics of the full moon from my apartment balcony 🌕

(first one is the original, next two are edits)
Photo of the moon in an early morning blue and purple sky. Thr bottom quarter of the photo is filled with the dark silhouette of a rooftop with a short chimney pipe sticking out of it at an angle. An edited version of the previous photo (Photo of the moon in an early morning blue and purple sky), editied so the details on the moon are clearer and the sky a more vivid color. The bottom quarter of the photo is filled with the dark silhouette of a rooftop with a short chimney pipe sticking out of it at an angle. Another edited version of the first photo (Photo of the moon in an early morning blue and purple sky), editied so the details on the moon are clearer than in the original or the previous edit and the sky an even deeper, darker color.

Added the horta that my friend (and bestest-ever fic beta) PK made me (because she's such a mensch) to the display case today 🎉
photo of the bottom shelf of a light-green display case. On the shelf is a plush gorn, a crochet horta, a crochet starship enterprise, a red and white teacup with saucer that matches one seen in Star Trek Picard, a Spock collectors plate, and an animated Tom Paris collectors plate. On the shelf above a few star trek funko pops can partially be seen, as well as a miniature lirpa.

Sirens of Titan rebind finished! Designed to be a companion to the Player Piano rebind I've already done.

Both books have been gifted to my dad, who introduced me to Vonnegut when I was 15 via old copies of several novels from his undergrad days, now some 50+ years behind him #bookbinding #rebind

Finished rebind of Player Piano, which is also my first finished #bookbinding project. Paper was torn, glue was spilled, mistakes were made a plenty, but I learned a lot and I'm overall pleased with the outcome. Up next: rebind of The Sirens Of Titan 👁👁👁

Decided to go all out for this bind I'm working on for one of my fics and am making floorplans for indoor locations I either made up or did my own version of and am enjoying it way too much

These are the WIP for the 1st and 2nd floors of the farmhouse/school Jim lived in on T4:
