HEY YOU - do you want to see (or even DRAW*) pinups of your favorite podcast characters? how's Early November looking? Do you have any #fattpinupweek prompts you wanna submit to help make @fattpinupweek happen this year? #friendsatthetable tinyurl.com/fattpinuppro...

a pinup study where I replaced a thin lady with Chine (from the hit podcast Friends at the Table) - they're tied up on their knees, sticking their tongue out playfully

I’ve been reading more new books this year, and so many of them are bad because they just feel like a bunch of tropes stapled together. Oh is the protagonist just an ordinary girl who has secret powers? Is the love interest a big tall man who is kinda mean?? Why is everything y/n fanfic?!?

From a simply outstanding glass plate negative in my collection. No date/info.

Photo of a shorthaired grey cat sitting up on an overturned white parasol on top of a light colored rock. A white sheet is draped behind it. It seems clear that this was all arranged deliberately to gather light for this very successful photo shoot of the cat.

This is more about certain…coworkers, I am much more forgiving with friends because sometimes our disorders are just gonna bump into each other! Also, thank you! People have been telling me I talk too slow my whole life haha

Virginia Paine @milkybootscomix.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

People who think I talk too slow love to interrupt me w/guesses about what I’m going to say&what with my disorders this makes me talk even slower; eventually we reach a place where nothing is accomplished, zero kelvin, and finally break physics to the point the universe cracks open and begins anew

Hate it when you see what you think is a cool bird and you look it up later and it’s called like the Common Dumb Asshole. “Birders throughout history have hated its guts. It can’t even fly right.” I thought I saw an interesting guy.
