HAPPY INDIGENOUS PEOPLES DAY (aka fuck Columbus day 😝)
For me making my beadwork, and for yall buying/wearing beadwork is a great way to say fuck Columbus, fuck colonizer assholes, fuck fascism. Im gonna stay celebrating my culture, the culture that they tried to wipe out from this land → cvkvlv.com

We supplement it with mulch from our chickens so it's probably getting some premium nutrients

I found a 19th century Cat Villain!

A huge chonk of a fluffy cat sitting on a table near an open fire. The cat is cream and grey and appears to be shaped like a barrel in a fur coat. They are scowling fiercely with their moustache and bewhiskered ears apparently flowing back into the cold wind. There's a definite vibe that this villainous cat twirls their moustache as they evict orphans into the aforementioned blizzard and think Scrooge was an easy-going lightweight. They are magnificent.

putting together a "thank you" sticker for orders that came in when we were hustling to pay a (non-emergency) vet bill for Yuki

which involved looking up one of my favorite photos of her, which is also a great photo of the original trio
