I went to a cat cafe the other day and saw these cats snuggling and they filled my heart with joy

A picture of two cats sleeping in a woven basket attached to the top of a cat tree. One cat is a brown tabby. The other cat is black and much smaller than the first. They are cuddled close together.

Some quick thoughts I had on the current state of vheavy, particularly about wave breaker 🌊

A screenshot of several messages sent by the op Shello. The messages read:
Unfortunately the way to get the most value out of wave rn in a lot of cases is to spam it because each individual one does so little
Or time it well with your teammates' plays and other specials which is what I aim for when possible but I get into the bad habit of just chucking it pretty often
Earlier I was playing an open zones game on robo with an inkline stringer and comboing chumps and wave gave me some of the cleanest sexiest retakes ever
But because everything that can go wrong can easily go wrong in a match, you can never guarantee that you can combo wave with your teammates specials in the way that you planned, but you can pretty reliably guarantee spamming

I just discovered favoritepokemon.vercel.app Go leave a note for your favorite pokemon :]

A screenshot from the favoritepokemon.vercel.app website where you can select your favorite pokemon and leave a public comment as to why it's your favorite. The top of the page reads "Declarations for Sobble" with a pixel art Sobble beside the text. It says that the first comment was left by the OP, Shello, a few seconds ago. The comment reads: "Sobble is everything to me! The best ever little guy. Friend shaped. Has the power of 10,000 onions. Playing through SWSH for the first time with Sobble by my side helped me feel less lonely during the pandemic. When I'm sad or overwhelmed I know I can boot up the game and Sobble will be there.

Saw this and had to fill out my own YES I did need to put Sobble in three different categories. #pokemon

A grid labeled About Me: Pokemon. Each box is labeled with a pokemon inside. The boxes, from left to right and then top to bottom, are:
Favorite: Sobble, 2nd Favorite: Raichu, Least Favorite: Gholdengo, Underrated: Chesnaught, Overrated: Incineroar, Best Starter: Sobble, Best Dynamax: Gigantamax Butterfree, Best Mega: Mega Gallade, Best Regional Variant: Alolan Sandshrew, best eeveelution: Vaporeon, would have as a pet: Sobble, best looking shiny: Sylveon, idk why I like this but I do: West Sea Shellos, has a personal story behind it: Rattata, very nostalgic to me: Vaporeon

The op’s persona, a humanoid leaf sheep sea slug with fluffy hair and two long ears, stares at an open laptop. Two text bubbles read “…” and “…”.

Op’s leaf sheep sea slug sona stares at the open laptop with wider eyes and a few beads of sweat dripping down their face. Their ears are drooping downwards. The text bubble now reads “What if I’m doing all this wrong?”

the other day while i was literally running tests on soil samples in a lab i thought "man, i should really pick up the weapon that literally has a soil core in it, that would be so thematically cohesive of me" #splatoon

The .96 gal shooter weapon from Splatoon 3. The barrel of the gun is made up of a clear soil core and you can see the rocks inside.

Found my favorite :) Fun fact! This design of Sobble was from the Paper Cutting Art Collection merch line and was sold as an acrylic keychain, phone charm, and two variations of metal/can badge pin. I own one of the pins.

The Pokemon What’s Your Favorite? 30th anniversary promotional image. The silhouette of Pikachu’s head sits in the center of the image below text reading “what’s your favorite?” The background of the image is a colorful and jam-packed collage of stickers with one of each pokemon.

A very closely zoomed in version of the previous image centered on where Sobble was hidden in the collage.

I think something may have happened during the game awards

A series of three posts from OP’s following tab. In chronological order, the first post reads “WHO KEEPS INVITING THE MUPPETS???”. The second post, by a different user, reads “MISS PIGGY <3”, and the last post by a third user says “im not watching the game awards what the fuck is happening”

Splatoon marketing: you're a kid now! you're a squid now! Splatoon story: Humanity is extinct. Those who survived society's collapse lived in an underground bunker before their own hubris doomed them. Their greatest desire, to see the sky one last time, was passed on to the inklings and octolings

Howdy #compsplatoon- I am looking for a personal coach willing to spend some of their time to work with me! Pure drive + my awesome team coach brought me from brand new to comp to top 5 in low-level tourneys over the past few months & I am determined to keep up the momentum 🌟 Pls DM here or discord

A graphic made by Shello with a blue, white, and green color scheme titled Shello is looking for a personal coach! It has two sections of text. The first is labeled About me and reads: "Backline for Red Rebellion / Fairly new to comp with a drive to improve / Goals: improve positioning, decision-making for anchor role / Current peak X Power 1800 NA division / Recent results: 5th place Teacup #19, 4th place Setting Sail #5." Below that is a section labeled What I'm looking for. The text underneath the heading says "A Div 6+ coach who plays one of my mains / VOD review or other meetings 2-3 times per month / Willing to chat comp and answer questions in DMs". On the right hand side of the graphic is a picture of Shello's in-game character holding up a splatling and smiling. At the top of the image are the badge icons of the weapons they main: Heavy Splatling, Heavy Edit Splatling Nouveau, and Heavy Edit Splatling.

I swear every time I go looking for rare/new Sobbles I keep finding out about collab merch that just does not exist in North America. Look at these that were released as part of a Pokemon x Mister Donut collab!!

A cream colored canvas tote bag featuring a simple illustration of several pokemon (Sobble, Squirtle, Pikachu, Grookey, Scorbunny, Bulbasaur, and Charmander) all sleeping on top of two large donuts.

A ceramic bowl featuring a poka-dot like design with the pokemon Sobble, Grookey, Pikachu, Scorbunny, and Chansey around the top of the bowl. Between each pokemon there is a donut or star shape.
