This is Firebolt. We lost him December of 2024 😭😭😭

He was his mom's baby & soul cat. When she got home he would sit and demand she pick him up and carry him over her shoulder like a baby.

Also one time I left the butter uncovered and woke up to tongue marks in the butter.

Probably my new favorite aperitivo and amaro.
Two bottles stand side by side with a Lego flower behind them. One is dark glass with a light brown label reading "Bellini Amaro delle Terme." The other is a clear glass bottle with a white paper label that has light flowers on it and reads "atōst BLOOM"

New kitten was adopted from a friend 2 weeks ago. He's now about...5ish months old. Came to friends and to us a traumatized little dude. 2 weeks later, hisses are rare, we hear purrs and vocalizing. Even rare pets. That's all to say meet Lucifer (named after a character in House in the Cerulean Sea)

Obligatory voting sticker (also, I fucking love mail in voting and being able to take the time to really sit and think through/research as I'm voting)

Not at all! Ravioli and hot pockets are obviously Wellingtons.

I think this take is a perfect verbalization of why I'm so meh about it.

I think the new state seal is solid though.

Thankfully, we got this 17 year old man's hypothyroidism under control for the moment. Vet said his # is exactly where she wants it and his weight has even gone up! (For reference, he's been 12 lbs for years and he's now just over 9).

Did the Manitou Incline this weekend with my partner. Three days later, my calves are still sore.
Forested mountain with a series of wooden steps cutting through it. A man in a white hat, orange shirt, and green shorts is coming down the steps. Picture of a large plain from a great height. The plain has streaks of green, and in the foreground pine trees rise up. Picture of facts about the Manitou Incline, including places to leave before the summit, the height of the top (8,550 feet), and hiking tips. Picture of a valley, covered in green coniferous trees. A wooden staircase is descending from the picture as a woman with red hair and a white tank top rests.

He's 16 and a half and has really started showing his age. I've been here for 6 of those years, and he's been with my partner through a lot of shit.

I'm super not ready for what's coming.
