I went into a deep dive of the influenza pandemic years before covid cause my gram always talked about it (her dad & twin died) which was apparently unusual cause Noone else ever discussed it. It was nuts seeing covid happen and watching the response to it during & after line up so well.

Impeding
Long haired black cat laying on his back with his eyes wide open probably looking at ceiling ghosts. A little bit of his fangs are peeking out. He's on a desk, with his head resting on some green fabric that needs to be added to the fabric on the left but that will need to wait until the ceiling ghost have been thoroughly viewed.
