I spend most of my time either trapped under a cat or in the lab trapped by my addiction to experimental science.

Oh my - I cannot believe how cool these new bracelets from @toadcialism.bsky.social are. I can't stop staring. The craftsmanship is amazing, and I love the colors! (Also, a bonus drawing to boot!)

Saw a kitty in the park on #caturday. [For those worried, no, I don't pet animals without permission, and unlike places where a raccoon in broad daylight tends to be rabid, in Central Park, our raccoons know the trash removal schedule and do their shopping before pickup so are oft out in the sun.]

Happy #caturday to all. The world is exhausting right now, so I cherish the moments of peace and fluff. #cats #catsofbluesky #siberiancats

So excited to arrive home to a delivery from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social which included two new amethyst rings (and others). Combined with previous rings from them, I can now sport an amethyst on each finger of one hand all with distinct and interesting designs! Purple. So purple. So happy.

Mood. Is anyone else just really really tired? Some days, I am so tired I feel like I don't communicate my neurodivergent thoughts very well and don't have energy to explain myself. This guy gets it. #cats #catsofbluesky #siberiancats

In NYC, #spring is springing. I love seeing the pops of color and lush green everywhere! Of course, it'd be great if we could stop springing from the low forties to the seventies and back. But thumbs up on the blossoms and leafiness!

These beautiful rings and brooch just arrived from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social so now I need to ask, what are the rules about maybe keeping a brooch intended as a gift for one's niece? Is that wrong? Because dragon.

This #caturday, Sunshine is worried that this amazing peridot ring from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social doesn't match his eyes well enough. I told him his eyes are still lovely, and the peridot pairs great with his coat.

Not a joke: someone is sleeping well and thrilled to be out of the cone and no longer confined. He's supposed to avoid stress, so it's good that he completely slept through the launch without a moment of anxiety. I'll tell him about it when he wakes up. #cats #catsofbluesky #siberiancats
A golden siberian cat is curled up asleep on a colorful blue green monet art inspired fleece blanket on the sofa. His front paws each have shaved sections looking like a poodle haircut, and his lovely fluffy belly floof has also been shaved off. Because the chair is shaved, smooth can clearly make out the spotted pigmentation on his belly. Do not play connect the dots between the spots trust me. We only get this one precious life, so why spend any of it bleeding. He has claws.

He is in the hospital with a partial blockage, and his sister hasn't stopped yowling at me that I came home without him. He annoys her, but she loves him SO MUCH. Luckily, he is cute and friendly, so will get lots of love and attention, but we miss him and want him to be okay. #cats #catsofbluesky

Choose your own adventure: You wake up on your donut to see your sister lying within jumping distance nearby. If you go back to sleep, comforted and warmed by the love around you, go to page 21. If you jump on your sister's belly with no warning, go to page 57. #cats #catsofbluesky #caturday

I don't understand. He turned his head to look at me when I got close to snap a photo, but he'd just been staring at the wall mesmerized for the longest time. Like it was his favorite TV show. I just had to share my confusion. #cats #catsofbluesky #siberiancats

I finally figured out why he keeps perching on the door. It's because we - collectively - keep making bad choices. He has to be up there to get to keep watch because we need so much looking after. Stop with all the evil so he can rest. Stop being complicit. #cats #catsofbluesky #stopbeingevil

Does anyone know if this species of streetlight is venomous? It looks very cold, so I'm just wondering about bringing it inside. Just kidding. I learned from #buffy not to invite in anything with #fangs like that. Hope everyone is okay in the storm (and all the other danger).

He is thinking deep thoughts about the universe. He knows its secrets, but he can't tell you: some things you must figure out for yourself. Something that isn't a secret is that he believes in you and your ability to be kind. Don't let him down. #cats #catsofbluesky #siberiancats #caturday

Other people: why don't you push the bookcase flush to the wall? Me: because then my cat couldn't do this [photo]. #cats #catsofbluesky #siberiancats I feel like how the light and shadow falls on his face is revealing some deep philosophical insight. Not to me, obviously, but maybe to someone.
A golden brown siberian cat sits in the corner between a brown bookcase and the wall. Based on light and shadow in the corner, on the left (his right), his face is lit up, and on the other side, he is in shadow. There's probably a fable or a deep philosophical insight hiding in this photo.

He lives his truth. He loves with his whole self. Like that poet (Don Marquis), his "heart has followed all [his] days something [he] cannot name." It's a piece of a broken toy he can't reach under a bookcase. We should all have such calm in our seeking. #cats #catsofbluesky #siberiancats

Is this what it looks like when your cat is being consumed by a tribble and only his front legs and head are left? There's so much fluff. And under the fluff, more fluff. Expeditions have been sent to find the cat under the fluff, but they've gotten lost in the fluff. The fluff is sentient now.

A lot happened in #NYC yesterday, but just noting that the leaves were falling UP off the trees, not down. Also, some of our #trees are really striking in silhouette. All in all, good job at doing November yesterday, Manhattan.
Avery blue sky is seen behind fall trees. Notably, the leaves falling off the trees were taken by the wond above the trees rather than falling to the ground. Some leaves in the air appear as various colors while others appear black as silhouettes.Silhouette of a tree in front of other trees in various stages of losing their leaves or changing colors against a very blue sky in the background.

Proposal: in the spring, we spring back. Then fall back again, spring back, etc. It's fair to eventually have the night shift people experience days and day shift people have to work in the dark. Plus, we all get an extra hour each time. I mean, it makes as much sense as what we do now, doesn't it?
