TFW you come home tired and sore after a long day, collapse on the floor, and he comes over to keep you company.

Finally, a flag worth fighting for.

Has anyone considered setting up a little salt lick at their work desk? How did it go? Asking for a friend. (The friend is me.)

Laksa night 🍜

He was today-years-old when he learned that the dresser drawers open XD

Look for the helpers

How he asks for tummy-brushes (and pets) I'm not even joking

who the fuck WANTS their posts to go viral, have you ever had that actually happen? it's like getting a winning pull on a slot machine if wasps started pouring out the bottom instead of quarters

Leto has taken it as his personal mission to be a goofy little gremlin the last few days, and I'm taking it personally (as in, I think he's purposely trying to make me laugh).

Sometimes he tries to jump down into the mud, so I elbow up to stop him, and he gets back at me by laying down like this :')

What a beautiful morning for a walk!

Happy tax season to all my UK sole traders 😔🙌 #art

Someone more in the know than me should host a "How to talk to your parents/grandparents about AI art, and how to identify it" panel.

I just love this old baby so much 😭😭😭

LRP: I found out about asexuality while I was teaching a class, and almost burst into tears because, surprise! There was nothing wrong with me actually! I can't imagine how much more difficult it would be to experience queer attraction and not know there's a word for it, and that you're not alone.

When I was younger I didn’t know trans men existed. I didn’t know it was an option, and I felt alone and hopeless that I would never have a body that I felt comfortable in. Hiding the existence of gay and trans people doesn’t make kids straight or cis, it just makes gay and trans kids miserable

“Why one small American town won’t stop stoning its residents to death,” an AO3 fic in which Isaac Chotiner interviews the guy who runs the lottery in Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery”, is astounding. archiveofourown.org/works/73396436

Ooooh big yawns!!!

Literally any time I lay this out. (It's really sweet that he wants to help me 💙)

Not me sleeping on a sliver of pillow to be sure she has enough room. I love this ancient purr/fart/snore machine so much.

✨ Apoxon's 2026 Reading List ✨ 1.) Fahrenheit 451 🎧 (Reread) A grim future where the ideas in books are considered too controversial, confusing, and offensive. Reading has been outlawed, and books are burned. A more hopeful ending than a lot of classic dystopian lit I've read lately. 🔥🔥🔥.5

I'm not the only one who checks on her. (His inner demons lost this round; he refrained from chomping her neck.)

Our little barbarian doesn't appreciate the comparison, but I humbly disagree. Thanks again, @kikidoodle.bsky.social !

Seems suspicious idk (Suiter is @pentigoat.bsky.social / Pentigoat on IG)

She is perfect. No notes.

I had to do a breathing check

First it was too hot to take him hiking. Then it was too rainy. Now he is a depress-y spaghetti boy who wants everyone to know that I neglect him.

This is, unfortunately, not as effective as you'd hope, for shedding control.

We've got a live onne!

Okay but what if Mouse suit dressed as a bellhop, manning the elevators (during non-chaos hours)

LOOK AT HIMMMMMM (thank you @malytwotails.com !!!)

The Scrungletumbus

We have a certain sort of dignity in this household.

Various stages of "I'm not vending" brain. ("I must be a Bad Person™" and "Untethered")

The same bed The same boy 😭😭😭

Happy New Year from the Space Needle* (I think, lol)! *as close to the Space Needle as we could get without being crushed

Every once and a while I think about when we brought him home, and how suddenly we were responsible for this little guy's health and wellbeing. And he was so small and so fragile*. (*He was not, but we didn't know that)

Podcasts were stressing me out this year, so I leaned (hard) into audiobooks (and physical ones). This year's reading total: 91 books Normally I'd shoutout my favorite, but I enjoyed most of them (there were only 10 or so stinkers). Guess I should get back to reviewing books here in 2026 🫠

The same bed The same boy 😭😭😭

She is perfect; no notes.

There was a dry path, but no.

I'll just have to assume the colors are working out okay. At least SOMEONE is proud of his handiwork.

3.5 hours of hyper-focusing later, and I have neatly ironed fabric, and a cohesive plan. Do I have *enough* fabric? Unclear!

World's Most Patient Man* is Tested (*He is not)

Shoutout to the folks who plan and pattern their own quilts because figuring out a cohesive design is TOUGH. (And I haven't figured one out yet; do I do an entire Shoo-Fly? Spool? Mix and match? What about the pattern of the pieces? Where should all the colors go??? 🫠)

The face of a man who has never been fed turkey not once in his life.

We did it, y'all

YESSSSS I can't wait to cackle! Thanks @animalshapes.bsky.social 💙 @pantspants.bsky.social
