Amazing photo of Allen Crawford and Vic, the Wrangel Island expedition cat, in the 1920s. collections.dartmouth.edu/archive/obje...

Black and white photo of a bearded white man in light colored heavy arctic winter coat with fur trimmed hood, looking stoically at the camera but with a slight smile. On his shoulder a shorthaired tabby cat sits, perched confidently, staring firmly into the camera as if aware that a portrait is being taken. This appears to be taken outdoors in winter as the background is blown out white.

It's been MONTHS since I went to the museum and I'm still thinking about this ancient lil bowl with feet.

(Egypt, c.3700-3450 B.C)

A dark red/brown bowl, it stands on two cute lil human feet, and tilts slightly forward, almost like a fairly rotund cartoon character.

Taylor Swift won two Grammys last night and on Sunday she’ll probably bring home the Lombardi Trophy. In November she's going to choose the next President of the United States and in January she’ll be releasing an army of cats who solve climate change. Amazing stuff all around.

I’m not even an American and understand what this means and I’m chuckling.

Interesting. Is there a list of such phrases, especially the most effective ones?

This is one of my favorite sets in my collection. Somewhere out there in the 1960s, a kitten and bird were pals. 💕

A small tabby and white kitten and black bird standing together in a dirt yard, looking to the left. They seem relaxed and at ease with each other.

The same bird and kitten from the previous photo, this time strolling away from the camera in a different outdoor setting together, side by side.

I wish it gets a sequel. I miss my diet of Bob Odenkirk. Also, if you’re into him, watch Lucky Hank. Very offbeat role from him.

Interesting. I like dark comedies more though. Nobody had a mysterious vibe of Barry (the TV series) which I liked.

Wick seems more on the lines of Transporter series of movies, if I’m not wrong.

Is it anything like Nobody starring Bob Odenkirk? I loved it!

Oil painting of a small, pleasantly round and plump longhaired tuxedo tabby kitten. The kitten standing on a soft red pillow and licking its front right toe beans with its tiny pink tongue.

Conan O Brian was the funniest guy in the world growing up because he was a comedy writer who wrote some of the funniest things of all time and hired extremely good writers but still could go “nothing we can write is as funny as pulling a lever to see Walker Texas Ranger clips or a bear jerking off”

This is very bad. This kind of right-wing bullshit - force an academic into an impossible situation by acting in bad faith - has been going on for a while. If university presidents were paying attention when their faculty were being attacked, then maybe they would’ve been prepared

Elizabeth Magill angered many alumni for allowing a Palestinian writers conference on campus. After she appeared to dodge questions at a congressional hearing, the outcry swelled.

Kamal Hassan, Johny Lever come to my mind, but yeah Sridevi was a gem and so so underutilised as an artist. She would have thrived in the new-age writing renaissance happening across film and tv.
