It’s not that I’m bad at telling when someone is flirting with me, it’s that I wasn’t expecting advances from yogurt.

Text that’s in the style of Zohran Mamdani’s campaign poster says, “Jail for Mother, for One Thousand Years.”

Anywho, here are some more tiny books that I’m making
A close up of several sizes of tiny books covers. The biggest is “The Search for Any Fucks to Give” by Dawn P. Tain. Next to it are a pair of covers that are about half its size. One is “This Meeting Could Have Been an Email” by David Eddings, and the other is “The Green Hunter” by Airry Pearry. There are two more in the background that are even smaller, but they’re out of focus and the titles aren’t clear. An overhead picture of a tiny book block and a tiny book cover. The book is titled “In My Stevie Nicks Era” and it’s by Syd Gilmour. There’s text on the back cover but it’s too small to read clearly.

everyone’s channeling Adaine Abernathy
A meme of two muscular men shaking hands. The text over the Black man’s arm says Melinoë, and the text on the white man’s arm says Portland. The text above their hands says, “Magic is real and so is my frog.”

Don’t worry, we’re very well protected over here in Portland, we have a ferocious guard dog on duty
A brown dog peeks out through a window on a front door, his face barely visible and his nose press up on the glass. There’s also a sicker that says “guard dog on duty.”

Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy. Not a selfie.
Three panels from Dungeon Meshi. The top panel is of a beautiful anime elf man, with a caption that says, “Senshi? Why aren’t you holding anything?” In the next panel, the elf, now surrounded with flowers, replies, “because it’s too heavy.” The third panel is of a very confused halfing, staring off into middle distance.

I got a whole stand so that I didn’t have to embroider on her, yet she’s still in my way

When they’re hungry but you catch them posing for an album cover
A wide angle shot of three pets in a slightly messy living room. On the left is a medium-sized dog who is looking away from the camera. On the right, sitting on the back of a couch, is a longhair cat: her front paws are stretched out and crossed. In the middle, facing the camera, is another cat. She glares hungrily.

This was about two minutes after she sneezed on my arm.
A grey and orange can sits on my lap with one arm on my arm and her head titled up. Her eyes are mostly closed and she has an extremely satisfied look on her face.
