Super hard to find collared dove family is hanging in my backyard. Very skittish...5 of them! (Super zoom) They're slowly invading over here, but still a bit rare in my (collared) neck of the woods. Bad pun! Anyways they're pretty and big critters.

Just found a third option too! ... (what a fun UX) In the main panel on the Library tab - which I mainly ignore for the left-most panel being quicker.

It's crazy that you can just...like, hop on a plane and fly to Iceland (16 years ago at least) from Seattle...continents and time zones and countries galore!

You hit the Thor-looking dude (always a Thor dude at this place) at the little convenience kiosk right outside the main gates coming from the States? Always refuses to acknowledge he understands english, but you totally hear him talking english to friends? Also, I thought black death was this?

This is a cat that thinks she will get a lick of ice cream, because my partner gave her a lick of ice cream a year ago in that position.

The background is full of expensive cat trees and various implements for cat enjoyment.

She had an echocardiogram earlier, this is her tail on drugs... Eating is her favorite thing, that tail is normally straight up and shaking in bliss.
Cat eating, tail is flat on the ground. :(

Parts of the underground under Seattle are literally lit up by crystals* in the ceiling. You can see the tops of these panels all over downtown, embedded in the sidewalks. (*fancily cut translucent glass to let in light to the tunnels)

Most batshit universe ever, where children slaughter each other with medieval weapons and magic but have AIs in their heads and the protagonist's (who can eat blackholes) girlfriend's immortal parent's steal an entire planet because she lost her virginity on it?! The Path of Ascension!

We're in the prime-time of cheaper by the dozen RPGs! Remember when Lunar came out? It was a joke of an RPG, now it's one of the most beloved RPGs ever! He Who Fights with Monsters! (more well received than Lunar was!)

Sir, sir...I got this at the beginning of COVID in preparation for going back to in-person meetings in the near future. While that near future never happened, it's waiting and being talked about daily in this household.

This is how most of us saw nudity in the 80s when it wasn't on PBS or in PG movies.

She had a tough day...asking for food.
Picture of a black cat laying on a Mudbay cardboard cat scratch pad.
Behind her is a TV console with some exposed wires behind it and in the shelves is a PS5, pottery, japanese puzzle boxes, some art from mexico, some modern art of a robot and circles, and tins full of cables.

Cat is perfect and adorable.

And this is a private-ish bar in the back with free drinks and snacks (open a lot of hours) if you pay a lot more for a certain floor for your hotel room.

In actuality, using ABS temps with Hatchbox PLA, normally I don't need to, but a ton of non-contiguous shapes in layer 1 were causing problems.

Printing a case for an open source steam machine. Parts coming in 2-3 weeks to 5-6 months, who knows from China. These are built on top of old retired crypto mobos, so super cheap and integrated RAM they can't swipe. PS5 level (mostly) specs.
