Sharing this one both because it includes both cats and shows the absolute mess I live in because of how overwhelming life can be.
Two cats bookend the top of a very messy sofa. A black and white tuxedo kitty curls up on one end, a white and black piebald kitty on the other. In between are many rumpled blankets, a laptop with a ton of stickers, messy bookshelves behind the sofa, messy desktops next to it, etc.

Now, I'm not normally a big TAR fan. I'll watch if there's nothing else on at that time or if someone I love from BB is on.

This season? I am so looking forward to! Loving a lot of the cast but mostly? I'm excited for:

It all adds up and makes the world a better place.

How can we be in community with you today?
The back of a tuxedo kitty as he lies stretched out across a pile of blankets on a sofa. His ears poke up straight and his head tilts a little as if he's listening intently. A white a black piebald spotted kitty sits in his human's lap and looks sort of forlornly at the camera, his pink ears sticking straight up in the air and one paw curled around his chest.

Is anyone else getting emails from bigbrother@fanmail.cbs.com?

This was in their latest:

This week we wanted to highlight a whole community of incredible fans. The Big Brother Bluesky community has been growing in numbers and making it feel like BB Twitter circa 2015. Our bloomfs have some of the funniest takes - and have even come together to hire Etsy witches to help or curse players 🧙‍♀️. Hope us BB Interns are never on their bad side. This fandom knows how to show love to their favorites, especially when Rachel returned to her HOH era.

Guess what came in the mail for me - belated bday gift! 🎈📖

Love to be able to be such a fan of someone's work who you were already a fan of just as a person. Can't wait to get into this and also now I have to go eat at Himal Chuli. 🤷

Book cover for Charlie Jane Anders book Lessons in Magic and Disaster. Background is a purple with black cracks and little white and yellow flowers growing out of the cracks. Tag line at the bottom reads "witchcraft is hard, families are harder..." On the blank front page of the book is a hand drawn picture of a cat wearing a tutu and conical party hat holding balloons and another little creature saying "happy birthday". The words "Happy Birthday" are written across the top. You can see a written message on the opposite side, but not read the words themselves.

We're at the peak of good produce season rn including amazing local tomatoes - so I got ingredients for and made panzanella (bread salad) this week. It's so good, it's all I can do not to eat all 6 servings at once!
A close up of a large yellow bowl with chunks of crusty sourdough mixed with fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, basil, and scallions as well as feta cheese, artichoke hearts and 2 kinds of olives all tossed in a homemade vinaigrette.

I almost forgot the cat tax!!
Black and white tuxedo kitty is wrapped in a tight ball with his front leg covering most of his face, his one little ear poking up. He's snoozing peacefully on a pile of blankets. White and black piebald spotted kitty with a long pink nose and pink ears and green eyes sits reclined between the outstretched legs of his human and looks crookedly at the camera being placed in his face like "what now, momma?"

I need you all to know that none of these photos of your pets are unflattering.

Also there are no unflattering pics of my pets - only bad pics because I'm not a great photographer lol

But here's one of my guys being bookends on the sofa arms - you can see the full mess of my apartment. 🤭
On a very messy sofa with blankets strewn about all over and piles tipping over here and there, there are two cats - each on the top of the sofa at each end. One, a white and black piebald spotted kitty named Sheldon, is curled up on the top of the sofa back, his ears perked up like he's only feigning sleep. The other, a black and white tuxedo cat named Shisky, is reclined along the arm of the other end of the sofa, his head ducked down under the desk holding a printer behind the sofa and his tail wrapped around his back legs. A many stickered laptop sits in the middle of the blanket strewn sofa.

Every time I cook with Impossible beef, I'm blown away all over again with how much it cooks up just like regular meat and tastes so good!

Anyway, the ginger beef* and broccoli turned out really delicious. Roomie had some vegetarian oyster sauce which added such a nice dimension to the flavor.
A black wok on a stove is filled with Impossible ground "meat", sugar snap peas, and both florets and medallions of stem from broccoli in a brown sauce. On a blue ceramic plate a bed of rice is topped with gingered "beef" and broccoli with sugar snap peas mixed in with broccoli florets and stem medallions and Impossible beef all mixed with a brown gingery sauce.

I figured out who Ava reminds me of: Cristin Milioti as Sofia Falcone from The Penguin

#BB27
Image grabbed from Hamsterwatch: Ava from BB27 laying in a hammock wearing all red, a big black fluffy hat with flower adornments attached and chunky accessories. She's a tiny very white brunette with a mysterious aura looking very serious. Cristin Milioti as Sofia Falcone in The Penguin. A tiny white brunette wearing a dark red leather coat and gloves with fluffy red trim on the collar and cuffs. She looks very mysterious and grim.

Yesterday, I posted that we created a household wishlist - we also have one specifically for the cats.

Today is Shisky's birthday, so if you wanna get our lil goofball something special today:

BB27's "mastermind" character - a devil-ish looking mask that is red with a black mustache and goatee and big keyhole on the top of his head and big spiraly eyes.

In honor of #BB27 live feeds starting tonight- what was your favorite moment on live feeds?

Any time Izzy and Cirie started deciding to change the plans that THEY Themselves set in motion got me like 🍿👀

But all-time fave might be Willie's breakdown.
Willie Hantz and Chef Joe from Big Brother 14 stare one another down so close their bellies are almost bumping - eyes locked in a pre-fight trance.

Take the fictional characters quiz and post the first four you know: openpsychometrics.org/tests/charac...

Oh goodness. The first one I recognized was from The Fandom We Do Not Name so I'll skip that and here we go:
Fiona from Shameless (US) - a white woman with long brown hair making a pouty face. Charlie Pace from Lost - a white dude staring moodily at someone with the ocean behind him Lilo from Lilo and Stitch (animated) - a native Hawaiian girl stares defiantly with a slight smile. Phoebe from Friends - a white woman with long blonde hair looking curious.

For one brief time every spring both local ramps and local asparagus are in season and I get to make this:

For instance, I just grabbed a random image of a painting off of google and see what I wrote for the alt text:

[If I was the artist, or sharing this for some other specific reason, I might highlight certain other facts or details about it. Instead, I went for as brief yet full details as I could]
A picture of a man holding a black paintbrush up to a painting. The painting is all in pink and purple hues depicting a sunset on a beach. There is a palm tree coming up on the lefthand side stretching into the sky. The palm fronds almost touch the setting sun, which is glowing white in the pink and purple sky. A deep purple land mass can be seen in the distance. The sunlight shimmers over the water, also colored a mix of pink and purple.
