Woke up this morning to a txt I'd evidently sent myself at 1am which read "DOUGLAS HOFSTADTER IS THE MIDPOINT BETWEEN STEVEN PINKER AND ANDY WARHOL" so this day is off to a rollicking start.

An extended floor-plop to recover after hours of roasting in a window sunbeam.

Disappointed that The Guardian put out a shopping list of "Best Black Friday Deals" and double-disappointed that over half are from union-busting employee-abusing shitshow Amazon. (List also includes problematic non-faves like HomeDepot and LuluLemon.) Boooooo, Guardian. Enjoy those affiliate $s.

Self-care is what's up. Not pictured: I like to put on an ItDoesn'tMatter while I work on gel nails -- something I've seen a billionty times, or that doesn't require thought/attention. This week's mani brought to you buy 1998's DEEP IMPACT. No regrets.

Editing photos of an event, wherein I wore a thing that I wore to a DIFFERENT event many months ago and saw the subsequent pics and went "holy shit I'm never wearing that again at least not where I'll be photographed" and yet HERE WE ARE.

Fairhope, Alabama. Population appx 23k. Heard one of the staff/organizers say "over 700" but that's not the final/official count. #NOKINGS

Holy hell I gotta remember to order some 13x19 paper. Doing poster-size prints on tiled letter is EXHAAAAAAUUUUSTING.

Apparently the #cat is thrilled with the temporary absence of our coffee table while we do some work in the LR. Sometimes we walk in and he's sitting right in the center, staring at the wall? Do circular ring-pattern textiles that clash violently with one's fur somehow channel Cosmic Cat Energy?

I have regrets (not really, it was def overdue, and no time like the present since we're about to ditch the fuggo track lights for recessed and also paint the cabinets) but this is a COLOSSAL pain in the ass. Next time I do this : SHOWER CAP.

Here's a very boring pic of hall linen closet. So nice and clean!
Not shown: the effing waterheater that had a JUMBO catastrophic failure & turned it into a mini sauna. Sheets blankets velvet duvet 6 yards silk dupioni antique jacquard ALL MY YARN. Lysol inhalation, 2 dead bugs, Kilz in my hair :(

![A small closet in a hallway, empty except for the wallmounted strips of wood that support the shelves. Which I had to remove. And then also remove the vertical screwed-in board that secures them on the right. Because the water heater that lives in this closet, unbeknownst to us until I saw a tiny puddle on the [WOOD] floor, woke up I'm guessing a week and a half ago and CHOSE. VIOLENCE. Hot water dripping off the bottoms of the shelves, mold growing on the walls. After eight loads of laundry (it was filled to the brim with multiple sets of sheets, blankets, two quilts, a velvet duvet, six yards of black silk dupioni, antique jacquard upholstery fabric that was my grandmother's, two additional boxes of fabric, multiple spare bed pillows, and an enormous box full of wool / mohair / alpaca / cotton / silk yarn), and an entire day to take everything out, unscrew the shelves, mop everything up, Lysol the hell out of it five times, and then paint the whole thing with Kilz... I am honestly half-ready to Kilz myself.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:273b7bdj7wcfqbyqsaafjlta/bafkreiazyg5peopzt5bhr5yg2xexnw4hhyacaeqazegiqanjensup32dki@jpeg)

Because everything is terrible, here's Lobster in a mohawk-mullet combo made from part of his kill (aka the lambswool pillow he destroyed via too-vigorous kneading)

HILARIOUS new chairs. Greg thinks they look like Thanos' chin. I think they look like "what if Star Trek: The Next Generation hadn't been so damn devoted to mauve, puce, and greige and had instead embraced the popular 80s jewel tones."
