photo of an all-white male cat sleeping in a cardboard box, which is labeled "Kirkland signature salted sweet cream butter". the cat is resting his head on one of the box corners, with his neck at an awkward up-angle. still, he looks completely content, as his eyes are closed...

same as the other photo description in terms of the white cat and cardboard box, except this time, the cat is resting his... nose? upper lip? against the same box corner as before. this does not look comfortable either, but he STILL seems content.......

he is salted sweet cream butter......

Specifically commissions I tend to view as collaborations. People come to me with their ideas, their ocs, their outfits, alter egos, things that they created, and I send them my ideas and get feedback and it's back & forth
If I criticize my comms I'm not just disrespecting my work but theirs as well

Yeah, they only stole our safe, but they broke a shelf in doing so. Also they bent our door frame so we can’t close the door. 😭

We’re finally going cashless, folks. Gotta put up the ol “no cash, no safe” sign like a few other local spots have already done.

I get asked to show up to book clubs, online and offline. Here is why from now on the answer is always "no." If you think this might have something to do with "AI" ruining yet another thing for everyone, you're absolutely 100% correct.

Flav STAYS one of the most vocal celebs when it comes to supporting professional women's sports and it's one of my favorite things about him. It's not a spectacle or a one off trick for him. He doesn't just avidly follow and support women's sports year round, he CELEBRATES their wins. Love that.

just a reminder that you already know everything you need to know about the state of the union and unless you will enjoy watching it there's a million other things you can do. you don't have to be "in the loop." the loop is a trash place to be tbh

A cartoon and poem by Shel Silverstein, called "Homework Machine": The Homework Machine, Oh, the Homework Machine, Most perfect contraption that's ever been seen. Just put in your homework, then drop in a dime, Snap on the switch, and in ten seconds' time, Your homework comes out, quick and clean as can be. Here it is— 'nine plus four?' and the answer is 'three.' Three? Oh me . . . I guess it's not as perfect As I thought it would be.

We've finally invented the homework machine from the classic Shel Silverstein poem "the homework machine sucks and we shouldn't do it"

The more than 3 million people applying each year for immigration status changes — such as seeking work or travel authorization, a green card, or citizenship — will now be required to give the government their social media handles. In some cases, they must also provide the handles of their young children, spouses, and parents, many of whom are U.S. citizens, green card holders, or are otherwise in the United States legally. The new rules will require them to submit any social media handles they have used over the past five years, whether used in a personal or professional capacity or even on behalf of an organization. This covers platforms including Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube as well as messaging services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and GroupMe.

Well, shit. This is batshit. This is bullshit. Even *posting* that I think this is bullshit is... I can't even.
