The "Amanita Some Honey, Please!" prints are in and now available on the PossumCat Studios shop!

Not only do you get some adorable art, but I'm donating 10% of the price (excluding shipping) to arfpnc.com to save homeless pets. 🥰

A print of a baby bear reaching up to get honey dripping from a giant Amanita mushroom. The mushroom cap is red with yellow honeycomb shapes instead of white spots. A wooden bear statue and wooden cat statue are on either side of the print, on a white cabinet in front of a light blue wall.

No bebahs yet.

Harley also says no food in her bowl. She would like that addressed ASAP.

A patched tabby cat with white muzzle, chest, and paws looking up at the camera expectantly. A bowl on a mat behind her clearly has some food left in it, but because she can see the bottom, the cat is convinced the bowl is empty and needs to be refilled.

Y'all, someone on FB just told me unironically that his problem with SNAP is that it shouldn't include luxuries and that if we made it only usable for good, healthy food, then the right might stop trying to get rid of it, and I don't even know where to start with that nonsense.

"Invictus" by William Earnest Henley. The famous poem bolstering the inner strength in the midst of oppression. Much needed for many these days. Recited by myself. Enjoy listening and I'd appreciate a comment to let me know what you think or your personal feelings about the poem.

No bebahs yet, but Harley is hoping for a sponsorship from Chewy to pay for her mushy food.

Well, an acquaintance who relies on the ACA marketplace for insurance just received a notice explaining that their fee for coverage will be rising. Right now they pay $180 a month. The new price?

$2733.15 a month.

With SNAP benefits going to shit because of rich assholes and corruption running rampant through politics I'd like to point your attention to a Clinton.

No, not one of those Clintons. This Clinton. Clifford Clinton.
