How about posting pics of weird cat behavior online?

A tortoiseshell kitty rolling in the floor with her catnip carrot is shaped like a crescent moon and has wide eyes.

Another tortoiseshell kitty rolling on the floor with her catnip carrot reaches toward the camera like an upside-down Superman.

Excellent job, Baby Tortie! Mine like to help me pack.

One tortoiseshell kitty is getting comfy on a basket full of sarongs while another is standing at the edge of the counter, waiting for either orders or boops.

I finally took some photos of my Halloween “Advent” yarn calendar and Helena decided to “help.” Yarn by Lambstrings Yarn.

Many thanks to Seattle City Lights for working throughout the night and continuing to work to turn the lights back on. ⛈️

I had the chance to take a long walk and the Seattle sky did not disappoint.

Sun starting to set in a mostly clear sky over the I-5 bridge on Lake Union, Seattle.

The Space Needle is backlit by an orange sunset sky with a dark cloud blanketing above and Lake Union in the foreground.

Downtown Seattle is backlit by a vibrant red sunset topped by mackerel clouds.

Bomb Cyclone 2: The Cyclone Strikes Back As this low pressure system moves offshore, another one is forming to the south. Then, according to Windy projections, they do a little reverse do-si-do. 🌀🌀😵‍💫 #Seattle #PNW #BombCyclone

A second cyclone has formed and is interacting with the first cyclone, heading to the coast of Oregon.

The cyclones continue rotating and the second is now off the coast of Washington and Canada.

We are delighted to share our manuscript describing hundreds of hours of phytoplankton abundance and size data from Station ALOHA near Hawaii using the continuous flow cytometer SeaFlow. #Phytoplankton #UW #Oceanography #HawaiiOceanTimeSeries #FlowCytometry doi.org/10.1002/lno....

The left panel shows the change in cell diameter and carbon content over the course of the day for small phytoplankton: Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, small eukaryotes, and Crocosphaera. Cell sizes start increasing at dawn, peak near dusk, and decrease at night. The right panel shows the distribution of hourly sizes for each phytoplankton group.
