The novelty Grinch cereal being essentially just green Kixs with the Lucky Charms marshmallow hearts is very funny to me. Was throwing in a Santa hat or Max's face too resource intensive?

(Yes I am a grown adult who buys myself novelty cereals. So sue me the colors make me happy.)

He's unfairly photogenic when he wants to be

Mr. Mistoffelees is too good at avoiding the paparazzi. All I want to do is document the way he drags around his favorite toy, Mr. Sloth, and this is the result.
A tuxedo cat perches on an end table with a stuffed sloth toy between his paws. Same shot as previous, only now the cat is gone, leaving only the stuffed sloth toy behind. Same shot as previous, only now the stuffed sloth has also disappeared.

God forbid he not make himself as inconvenient as possible.
A black and white tuxedo cat sprawls languidly across their human, as taken from the prospective of that human, who is being actively prevented from interacting with their tablet computer as a result.

Mister Mistoffelees has not been a particularly cuddly cat for the ~2 months I've had him. Tonight is a very demanding exception.

Anyway, here's a few pictures of my cat trying to catch snowflakes through the office window.

My new haircut isn't bad exactly but on the days between showers it does tend to do some weird anime shit.

Not bad weird exactly. But weird. And I can't get it to stop.

This feels like a you thing.
A post from Tumblr user @doublism reading: "i wish i could hang out with grizzly bears and introduce them to all of the ways that humans have developed for cooking and seasoning salmon. me and my grizzly buddy throwing a salmon on the grill and just kicking back with a couple of beers and really getting to know each other. me and a grizzly going out for a lox bagel. me and a grizzly sharing salmon teriyaki."

This kind of working relationship is much easier to pull off when the soft cat is small.

Not usually one to screenshot the things I see on Tumblr but this happens to be in my neck of the woods and deserves whatever attention it can get.

TL;DR Nice Native lady needs help to not lose her land.

Screenshot of tumblr post by user @longhorned, in turn featuring 2 screenshots from @grayfoxfarmwa on Instagram lamenting her eviction. The post reads: "laurae, a small Native farmer who built up her farm over the last five years, was served a 90-day eviction notice despite being promised by the landowner that she would be given a purchase agreement and the farm would never be sold to another person. Everything she has is in this farm. She's put thousands of hours of work into it, built her cabin by hand, and invested every penny she's made back into it. we are fighting to help her get the money to purchase her land before someone else buys it and kicks her - and us, her tenants who had no access to land without her help - off. "I know we’re all hurting right now and the world is fucked. but I love laurae and she’s done so much for all the people in her life. She has nowhere to go, no other options for a home, and no means to start over."

Caught them cuddling. Had to snap the pic over my shoulder because they'll jump apart the second I turn around.
Two cats, one a short-haired, mostly-black brown tabby and one a long-haired gray tabby, lie shoulder to shoulder with their heads resting against each other.

Other cats want to sit in their peoples' laps while they work. Mine?

Somebody's supper happy the night got cool enough for me to use a blanket, since it means the lap is available for the first time in two months. Old girl hopped up as soon as I got settled and hasn't moved for over an hour.

We move apartments in two days. Sha Wujing just discovered the half-full box labeled "cat stuff."
