Cats of Yore @catsofyore.bsky.social · 4h

From Best Cat Stories, a book in my collection of short stories by different authors with wonderful illustrations by Eileen Mayo. 1952.

Black line illustration on white paper of a shorthaired tabby cat marching confidently through a jungle scene. It is unperturbed by the foliage, vines, flowers, and beautiful snake that swirl around it.

Today’s my birthday! 🎂🥳
It would mean so much to me if you shared my art! 💖🎨

A pale woman with long flowing black hair frames her as she holds a skull with a kiss mark.

A woman holds three girls in her hand and she cradles them with a gentle smile. She wears a dark gown and has a veil over her face. Her hair is done up in beads and a braided bun.

Two elves posing near each other intimately. the pink elf has a cigarette in her hand.

Leora in her void form is grabbing a star that emits orange flame. The text reads: star catcher.

Diversity doesn’t weaken unions. Racist bosses like Vance using racism to divide workers by race so they can exploit them weakens unions. All this stuff is arsonists complaining about the temperature in the building they set on fire. bsky.app/profile/diew...

JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing.

Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵

É tudo datacenter

Essa imagem é uma tirinha cômica em quatro quadrinhos que retrata uma situação exagerada e humorística envolvendo um monstro e uma menina. Vamos descrever cada quadrinho:

1. **Primeiro quadrinho:**
A menina está apontando para um monstro que parece estar se aproximando de uma casa. Ela grita: "um monstro! Vai destruir tudo!"

2. **Segundo quadrinho:**
O monstro responde: "Perdão, não quis assustar. Estou só de passagem, não vou destruir suas casas."

3. **Terceiro quadrinho:**
A menina diz: "Casa o carai!"
O menino diz: "é tudo datacenter"

4. **Quarto quadrinho:**
O monstro destrói tudo e as crianças comemoram

"Tzefardea Tzedek" (Frog of Righteousness)

As soon as the Portland Frog became a meme, Jewish social media blew up with jokes about the 2nd Passover plague - tzefarde'a (frogs) - and the Rabbinical commentary around it. I knew I had to make a calligraphy piece encompassing all of it. (more in alt.)

Hebrew calligraphy in dark green stretches in lines across the image. Negative space makes room for a simple representation of an inflatable frog costume with a blue bandana. That shape consists of the English translation of the Hebrew, in a lighter green, and in much smaller text.
--
Famously, the Egyptian tyrant causes Egypt to be overrun with frogs because he refuses to free the Hebrew people, but there are additional details that make this a fun one to ponder. For one, the Hebrew says "the frog came up" - ONE frog - even though the rest of the time it says "frogs." So there are a few explanations rabbis have come up with to explain this. One is that a single frog multiplied to create swarms. A more creative explanation is that there was a singular giant frog who traveled and brought destruction. Jewish social media was sharing videos of the Portland Frog protester with the caption, "One Big Frog! One Big Frog!" Of course the frog protesters did multiply, and many were seen in crowds all over the world on "No Kings" Day. This calligraphic work takes the verses addressing the frog plague and combines them to form a simple rendering of the Portland Frog protester. The frog figure itself is made up of the English translations of the Hebrew around it. At the bottom left my signature is in the shape of a lily pad.

Gorgeous Babs grazing in the sun. Our 3 highland cows love grazing in the pasture all summer, but during the long winters here they rely on us to provide them with hay. They are BIG cows who eat a lot, so we'd be so grateful if you'd help keep us them fed this winter! donorbox.org/mmfs-2025-ha...

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

One heavy Panzerkampfwagen Tiger Ausf. B, pride of the Panzerabteilung, firmly socketed into a ditch; versus five identical copies of the M4A1 Sherman built yesterday and running freely through the fields, supported by a field kitchen that does nothing but make birthday cakes for the tank crews.
