Oh, *table* cats! It sometimes takes me a minute to figure out cat spelling. :)
AKA isthisnametaken on Daily Kos. I like animals, nature, fiction and nonfiction, some politics (but trying to cut back), history, art, interesting stories. Etc, etc.

Oh, *table* cats! It sometimes takes me a minute to figure out cat spelling. :)
Is this a children's book? I want it.
It's from the TV series, Babylon 5. I think it's a Shadow Ship.
Split ends?
That TV is the right height to support a smaller portable TV after the older, bigger one wears out. :)
Somehow, that reminds me of when my hand-me-down big floor model TV wore out, it was too big and heavy for me to get it out of my apartment and disposed of, somewhere. But it was a perfect "stand" for the little second hand TV I then got. (In my early 20s, in the early 70s.)
The UHF antennas, you bought separately, worked better.
It's a UHF antenna, so you can get the UHF channels, as well as the VHF channels from the vertical antenna that came installed on the TV. (Born in 1952.) :)
No it doesn't. Why are there so many trolls on this thread? The kitten looks happy and curious, not scared or upset. And as soon as it gets tired of that hat, it will simply rub it off.
Fat woman accidentally killed man she loved. I don't get how this isn't sad. Unless fat people don't deserve any empathy. You know, because they're fat.
That's what the internet is for! Much of the pleasure I (an old lady in Oklahoma, who's unfortunately never been out of the country) get from Ben's books is repeatedly looking up stuff about the localities he mentions, as well as unfamiliar slang words, foods, etc. I really enjoy that!
Have they booped each other's nose? That's the next step.
Gooble gobble
That's why I always use a straw with iced drinks.
Even *if* he was 6'3" in his youth, he wouldn't be that tall, now. Everybody loses a couple of inches or so, as they age. From spine compression or even more, from kyphosis.
Mules. (Shoe style with low backs.) :)
"Not a trump voter" probably means he's a russian sock puppet or bot. That's why he didn't vote for trump.
Mine, and an extra copy for my sister, will arrive tomorrow! 😃
What are those things? They're cute!
The photo of Pipkin looks like it's from the 1950s.
7 inches tall?? The article says "five feet 7 inches tall". I hope they never caught him.
I'd love to know if they actually towed them. I hope they did!
But that's in cockroach years.
I wouldn't test her by "filtering" the beverage, that way!
How do you guarantee no pollen will get out!
They should show that clip as many times as they've already showed the clip of Biden stumbling on the steps.
Article dated 1924. (:
Pretty kitties.
On closer look, it's a peanut. Very sweet.
What are you giving the monkey? Or is the monkey giving you something?
FINALLY, I did, too. It doesn't look so egg shaped to me, but that's just me. YMMV.
Oops. I mean Senate.
Jan 6, 2021. Markiewayne cowering behind row of chairs as the "tourists" tried to break into the House chamber.
Alt National Park Service is worth a follow. Maybe they could tell me where this rare Tennis Bird is found.
I didn't believe that until I googled it!
Did the kitty knock over that cute frame and break it? It's still cute and was worth gluing back together. 😺
😆😅🤣😂
This is an Onion story, right? Right?
I bought and read Starter Villain, totally because of the cat-in-suit picture on the cover. Then ran across Kaiju Preservation Society and read it. Somewhere between those, found you on Bluesky. About to start Old Man's War.
ALWAYS 🌈 🌈 🌈
You forgot the "/s".
Some of *us* need the /s. (Sigh.)
Some of need the "/s". 😉
That's just the kind of thing a US republican would say to get elected to office or confirmed to the Cabinet or Supreme Court, then go back on that statement after getting into a position of power. So don't take mini-trump's word for anything.
I think Brooklyn American means donold's crazy tweet might as well be an ad for voting for Carney, because it sure isn't helping poilevre. (If I spelled that name wrong, I won't even apologize, because of who he is. But the small "p" is deliberate.)
Owl Kitty?
We're not having anti trump/musk protests, in Oklahoma City, today, because it's the 30th anniversary of mcveigh's act of domestic terrorism, here. For obvious reasons, that takes precedence, here. But mcveigh would have fit right in with the more violent trumpers.
Does Fizzgig have her own Bluesky account?
So dramatic!
You must be doing a wonderful job of taking care of your Dad. He's very lucky to have you.
Are you trying to help get the ball in the hole?
That's a respectable knife blade, Taako. Use them all, wisely.
I don't live in Oregon, I'm in Oklahoma. Is the national AARP not on Bluesky? If not, why not? (As far as I know, OK AARP, if exists, is also not on Bluesky.)
No, the first sign was when leon childishly slandered that rescue expert who dared to publicly say leon's little submarine wouldn't work in that underwater cave the Thai kids and their coach were trapped in. (Then he somehow got to the jury in the slander or libel suit that followed.)
They knew leon was bad, by the time they bought that monstrosity.
For good trouble?
The United States is crippled.
In Oklahoma, too.
I wish I'd thought of this, sooner: Jorts, you could learn to type on a court stenographer machine, like the cats in John Scalzi's "Starter Villain".
Fascinating trip down this rabbit hole thread!
Considering my back, I'm very jealous of that foot pillow trick.
Because pensions have been replaced with 401k retirement plans. And those are exposed to the vagaries of the stock market.
Are they greebles?
Yes.
Not all Boomers are GOP or voted for trump or reagan or even any republican. You're just ageist. How many of your generation (whatever it is) voted for trump? He couldn't have won without enough votes from your generation, too.
Okay, it took reading the alt text for me to get it, but it was worth the trip. 😂
What is that stuff the cat didn't get into?
I wish I lived in your state instead of Oklahoma. I wish I could afford to move.
It turned out to be the first sign of arthritis in my fingers and full body x-rays showed beginnings of arthritis in most of my joints. 9 years later, 2 fingers and my thumb, on each hand, are somewhat deformed. But I can't tolerate special meds for it. Anyway, get it looked at.
Get it looked at. I thought I sprained my middle finger, in my sleep, 9 years ago. I didn't get it looked at until several months later and by then, I overused it and tried to force to bend and straighten like it did, literally the day before it went bad. That made it worse.
They'll also go into nursing homes (even more understaffed), after employees, residents, and visitors.
But there now many Protestant Evangelical churches with majority Hispanic congregations. Protestant Evangelicalism has made big inroads among Hispanics, both in this country and in Hispanic countries. Catholic churches might get hit first, but Protestant ones won't be immune.
Start with the unofficial "cabinet" member, the illegal immigrant from South Africa.
My first thought was they'll be dragging support staff out of already understaffed hospitals. But then I realized they'll also be dragging patients out!
He *is* a sweet boy.
Who's "you old people"? We didn't all vote for trump. Just as not all young people abstained from voting at all. (Or for trump, themselves.)
"Cracker Island" by Gorillaz. "They taught themselves to be a cow."
She's so pretty and she reminds me of my first childhood cat.
Many more friends, by the time I wrote this!
But those other places already have enough hair and your scent on them. 😸
I jumped to follow this "Politics News" but I'm uncomfortably noticing they don't provide sources for most of their "news".
Somebody else called him Leon Muskow. :)
They are beautiful. Keep on putting pictures of them, at intervals, between your other messages. Cats and dogs will help keep us sane during the long fight.
Did they ever get the ball? :)
Explain?
I bet he figures out how to defeat the rubber band. 😸
Get them each a box!
Thanks for the link!
I just finished it, a couple of days ago. 😹😻 The first Scalzi book I've read and I'll be looking for more. Also, I sure wouldn't mind a sequel to this one. 🥰
Is it one of those combo machines that washes and dries in the same machine? Kinda big for the usual apartment those combos are for, isn't it? :)
Somebody here in Oklahoma City is buying them. I keep seeing a white-colored ("wrapped"?) one and an original silver? nickel? colored one around town. Or there could be more than one white one and/or more than one original color one, here.
Some girls love dinosaurs, too. I did (still do), and I bet I would have loved those books, if they existed 60 or so years ago. 🙂 🦕 🦖
I just discovered this account. Are there any Yoyo strips, here? The Yoyos fascinated and kind of scared me, as a kid.
How to pin?
I'm so happy to see you and your cats here!
How do I pin this?
I love the hat!
Get well, soon, Koda.
Were you halfway reminded of the 2 SNL guys who did an imitation of Arnold Schwarzenegger? ("We just want to --pump--you up"!)
It's great to see the people having a good time. The stars on sticks, that they carry, are beautiful. Do people make their own or buy them? Or both? It was amusing to see a few Krampus-like characters, too.
