If the Morning Monty can’t have a sunbeam, at least he can have auntie @kambriel.com’s quilt - which we don’t let him drag outside into the catios, so. A rather nice silver lining, tbh.
Fluffy gray tabby perched atop a quilt with lots of purple and black and patterns. He looks up at the camera with big eyes that say, “you’re not here to move me, are you?”

Getting real sick of slop midwives pleading for a 'respectful discussion' of AI as relates to the arts. Your use of AI to 'make art' is not respectful. It benefits from stolen art, destroys the planet, and does not make you an artist any more than someone driving 26.2 miles is a marathoner.

Weeks ago I brought home a new Canna Lily plant to commemorate a milestone anniversary of my mom's passing (which occured on the night of a full Buck Moon 🦌). Late last night, beneath this year's full Buck Moon, its very 1st flower burst into bloom! #EverydayMagic

Annual #4thofJuly reminder: 🌟✨Silent fireworks are a (vibrant! festive!) thing.✨🌟 There are other ways to do this - every bit as good & for many (people living w/ ptsd, anxiety, noise sensitivities, pets & wild animals, the environment, asthmatics, and just... anyone who breathes), way better.
"Collecchio, a town in Northern Italy, passed a law to make all fireworks silent. The idea was to reduce stress on pets and the local wildlife. Though the fireworks lack the explosive sound, they are stunning in terms of colour and visual display."

Independence doesn't mean you must (or even can) do everything on your own. This Independence Day feels like an excellent time to celebrate our *Interdependence* - so let's honour giving what we can, receiving what we need, fighting for & supporting eachother too. #InterdependenceDay 🗽 🌱🐝

I was maybe in 1st or 2nd grade at the time, but it really stuck with me; and ever since, I always find it reassuring to see turban-wearers out and about. This post is turban-positive, but it is not about turbans. Wear your shirts. Put stickers on your car. Put signs in your yard. (2)

When I was a little kid, a guy in a turban caught me staring at him in a mall food court. I was embarrassed but he was nice, so with Dad’s permission, I asked about his “hat.” He said that the turban meant that he was a helper. “It means that if you need help, ask me. *I* will help.” (1)

Found my limit after pushing myself too hard lately & lost consciousness & fainted at the side of a busy road today. That was... something. Gratitude to two kind souls who helped til I came to/recovered a bit (a work in progress). I did joke dying on World Goth Day could be overdoing it a touch? 👻

"Nothing new is quite so cool as an object with a story." "It's the bright side of chronic anxiety. If you're quick & thoughtful, you can be ready for just about any calamity." "A scream was the only word I had, so I used it. Over & over." This book's so good (+turf-defending "feral cat" ghosts)!
