Ruby the cat says she's not judging.
But I feel like she kinda is.

Black background with mauve pink frame. Upper right photo of sleepy cat (dilute tortoiseshell) curled up on couch and stretching out legs and toes. Bottom left photo of same cat on back of couch, camera looking up, only stretched out legs and toes visible. 4 blocks of text in white and pink: Today I stretched than you wrote words. 18 more toes than words, to be exact. I'm not judging. Just letting you know that I can count. Do with this information what you will.

I found this lil buddy. I love him.
I wanted to pet him but did not.
The next day he was gone. Hopefully having a good mothy time somewhere.
I looked him up. He's a Rosy Maple Moth.
I made a thing.

Photo of a fuzzy, pink, and yellow Rosy Maple Moth with 3 cartoon speech bubbles of text. Speech bubble #1: Hey, look at me! Behold the wonders of nature! The beauty of metamorphosis! (Literally and metaphorically!) How my fuzzy body of pink and yellow awakens the cute-aggression impulse inside you! Speech bubble #2: It took me months to get here. And because my digestive system dissolved when I was a pupa and my mouth parts are vestigial, I will die in a week. Speech bubble #3: So maybe keep your shit in perspective, Asshole.
