Merry Samhain to those that celebrate! And to those that don't, I still have candies!

Pet foods & litters are needed along w/people foods. Also, keep an eye out for big sales on bath/bodywork items & holiday clearances on blankets for abuse crisis shelters.

Timeline cleanser! Break out your Temu Zombie Costumes & dance along!

The kitten is at that stage where her eyes are still too big for her head - so big it makes you think there's no room whatsoever for any brains. I think she's milking that 'I haz no brains!' thing a little too much... Carpet lint is not a food. Stop it. Poop-on-a-rope should never be a thing.

Sunday Motivationals! The VB Conjectural Technologies keychain! A give-away for Dragon*Con 2025, it featured both the company name & its motto. I had a lot of pink ones & needed something pink related so you can thank Pete White's pink shirt for this choice. More info in the ALT.

Anyone else bite two-color gummi worms in half while screaming 'Who's your god now?' or is it just me?

Sunday Motivationals! The Golden 'Bathroom Henchpass' keychain! Another booth item for Dragon*Con 2025 b/c you aren't an official Henchman until you've earned your wings...& can get into the official Cocoon crapper. Gotta control traffic somehow, right? More info in ALT.

You want to know what should be a rule? There shouldn't be football on every single frickin' basic channel at the same time. Some of us are old & like to watch the local news at a reasonable time.

I'm trapped under a one-pound purring ball of lint! Send snacks.

In 48 hours, I've gone from a shelter-shy kitten hiding behind the accordion to a kitten proudly announcing her presence in the window. In tiny squeaks but still. I'm also fairly certain that that cat food fart was her too.

Sunday Motivationals! The Venture Bros' PRO.B.L.E.M keychain! Silver glitter to ensure you can see it in space, these were created for giveaway @ Dragon*Con 2025. I made a ton & they are all gone. I might need to consider keychains as a staple if I can find bulk blanks for cheap again. Info in ALT

Sunday Motivational! The Rusty's Day Camp for Boy Adventurers silver medal! 2nd place prize for the Venture Bros Trivia contest that was held at Dragon*Con 2025. So shiny, so colorful! I was weirdly happy w/how the two medals ended up turning out. More info in the ALT.

If you want to be up in my business, I should have the right to legislate that things go up your business.

Sunday Motivationals! The 1970-something Science Medal Rusty Venture won & decided to wear on his night out to the titty bar in 'Mid-Life Chrysalis'. First place prize for the VB Trivia Contest @ Dragon*Con 2025. More info in ALT.

When your mom shows up to your ego-rally & feels they have to show support...

Packing for a trip, basically wearing the same costume for 3 days straight, not a very involved costume either... 'Where's my two-wheeler dolly to haul this enormous suitcase to the airport?'

Sneak Peek! This isn't one of the Venture Bros-specific items created for the upcoming booth @ Dragon*Con so I'm ok w/the early post. Space Ghost Tie Tack. Details done w/cat whiskers. Look for 'Rose Whelan' & ask about them specifically.

Potato Bug. Sower of chaos, eater of crunchies, biter of toes. Would crawl under the blankets when cold & go back to sleep hugging my neck. [5.3.24-8.23.25]

TIMELINE CLEANSE ACTIVATED! Seriously, time to forget stupid reality for a couple of minutes & just revel in Chicken Jockey!

Yeah yeah, I sang along. Potato Bug thought I was in pain but I'll probably play this later & do it all again.

HUMAN ARTISTS, use only one piece to convince people to follow you.

A quick review of Wendy's Wednesday Misfortune Meal: It's ok. I think the sauce is purple dyed siracha. It is spicy HOT, avoid unless you hate your taste buds. Frosty = black cherry? I will cherish the little spoon for as long as I can before the kitten notices it & chews it to bits.

Dragon*Con random item! Ok, there's only the one bc bored/I wanted a 3-popcorns tin for the snacks. It's headed to Atlanta now where either the people @ the booth will keep it or give it to a fan. It's rough, it's weird, it still smells like spray paint, it's a Monarch tin w/attack butterflies! 😆

Weekend Sale to get in time for Dragon Con - Cost is just shipping $26USD Includes Monarch Plush, Comic, set of playing cards and a couple extras. Limited to 42 Ends in 20 hours www.etsy.com/au/listing/4...

Currently tracking a package from NC that went to IL, then back to NC, then back to IL that is supposed to be delivered to ND. Not the first time I've seen this sort of dance. Any DeJoy holdovers/MAGAts in the PO really need to be fired into the sun. It's broken! -says the guy hiding a hammer.

Should have been working on Con stuff. Instead, playing Fancy Chef in the kitchen with a mini Hello Kitty fondu maker, Batman toast and a cup of microwaved tomato soup. I found the fondu maker in the clearance aisle of a local Hobby Lobby for super cheap. 😜 It works.

This is a reminder for those that can - the United Way School Supply Drive is in full effect. The world sucks but you can help it suck a little less for a little kid. Back packs are always needed but even pencils or erasers can go a long way.

Today's Rating: rubber lizard, stuffed mouse, stuffed kitty, box she pulled from the garbage, a single flip-flop. The chocolate-covered strawberry wand toy got stuck in the kitchen but the intent was definitely there.

Nerve damage sucks & having to cut back on the things I want to do sucks & having necessary med refills fall through the cracks sucks. I'm having ice cream & driving the kitten insane w/a laser pointer & no one can stop me.

Swag update: should be finished w/every variation of one item tomorrow. 1/2 w/Gold, full done w/Silver. White complete. Waiting on last component for one. 1/10 done Blue. Tacks primed. Reward? Got a toilet paper holder for the bathroom like a responsible adult. Sadly not a buttnapkin butler one.

The Dr. has left the building.

Don't you just love it when you've got a million projects that really need to be ready to mail in a month & you keep ending up with tweaks on things until eventually you just end up repainting the Sistine Chapel? So much fun.

Once upon a time, I could sit down to eat something without a furry snake with hooks shooting out of nowhere to snag all the things. The kitten has reached her full length potential & now it's everyone's problem.

What do you get the toddler that shits on everything?

Oh ye gods...everyone needs this cleanser in their timeline ASAP. Maybe go pee first before watching...

Pass this on. You are tasked to protect all civilians, not cater to the whims of Shitler.

Hey everybody! My birthday is later this month and the ONLY thing I want is to raise some money for our local shelter, the Humane Society of Chittenden County. They do so much for our community. Please consider donating if you can! 🥰 givebutter.com/catsofyore

No trip to the used bookstore for me. The world smells like burning hair outside today.

Currently debating whether to go to the used bookstore on Saturday or use that as a reward for getting something done. Knowing full well I'll probably be at the used bookstore while the worktable continues to strain under wip drifts.

No one seems to spend more time focused on other peoples' genitals & what may or may not be happening with them than the so-called 'moral majority' who are neither moral nor a majority.

For anyone wondering about the Sunday Motivational thingie [all like one of you 😆😊], it's not that I forgot. I just might have posted all the items that I'm allowed to at this time! Currently pits-deep in projects slated for release end of August. Marie Kondo would have an aneurysm.

Potato Bug rules the world! Or at least the hallway when I want to leave for work. My poor bike seat is covered in little poke-holes but at least she's stopped trying to chew the brake cables. That was a little too murder-y.
