She has just stolen my chair, so don't be fooled.
Very (and suspiciously) innocent-looking cat on an orange chair. She's fluffy with big eyes and a little heart-shaped ID tag is just peeking out of her white fur. She's a chair thief, but also the greatest cat ever.

Getting there. I put stripes on the soft cushions because it looked like Terry Jones was holding two ravioli.
Three miniatures from the Spanish Inquisition sketch from Monty Python's Flying Circus. All in their red robes, with Michael Palin on the left in his big red hat, holding one finger up while describing their chief weapons, Terry Gilliam in the center opening a big scroll, and Terry Jones on the right holding two soft cushions.

I can offer ... a cat and a bee.
Tabby and white cat sitting fluffily on a crocheted green-and-gray blanket. Little bell on a red collar. Long whiskers and ear hair. Murder mittens at the ready. Fat bee on a sprig of lavender. You can see the little hairs on the bee. He's having a great day and doesn't even mind the paparazzi.

Also, I have found All the Bees. They are on my lavender and quite happy.
Chonky bee on a sprig of lavender.

Heatwave Brits lounging around like
A Victorian (or Victorian-esque) illustration of a frog sitting on a rock in a red Speedo and a red fez with a pink bow tied around its neck. Also smoking a pipe and looking superior. Or I think it's a pipe. It's got a long pipe vibe, whatever it is.

Happy 50th anniversary to Jaws, although I won't be watching it until the 4th of July, as I usually do.
Scene from Jaws. Captain Qunit slides down the deck of his boat and into the mouth of Bruce, the mechanical Great White Shark.

TK Maxx just sent me a Halloween email. It's both too early and incorrect for those of us who celebrate year round. And so pink!
An email advert for Halloween decor items sent out by TK Maxx in England during a heatwave in June. Images of a skull, a ceramic pumpkin, a half-assed hand of glory, all in shades of pink on a fuschia and pink background.

Somebody at Sainsbury's is having a laugh.
A tiny red cabbage beside a standard coffee cup, for scale.

RIP Brian Wilson. My favourite bit of trivia about him remains his obsession with "Shortnin' Bread." Respect.
From Wikipedia: Alex Chilton, the former lead singer of Big Star, recalled receiving middle-of-the-night phone calls from Wilson asking him to sing on a recording of "Shortenin' Bread"' ("He was telling me I have the perfect voice for it").[31] The Monkees' Micky Dolenz said that when he tripped on LSD with Wilson, John Lennon, and Harry Nilsson, Wilson played "Shortenin' Bread" on piano "over and over again".[29] Biographer Peter Ames Carlin wrote that Elton John and Iggy Pop were bemused by an extended, contumacious Wilson-led singalong of "Shortenin' Bread", leading Pop to flee the room proclaiming, "I gotta get out of here, man. This guy is nuts!"[32] Musician Alice Cooper recalled that Wilson considered "Shortenin' Bread" to be the greatest song ever written. According to Cooper, when he asked why, Wilson responded "I don't know, it's just the best song ever written."[33]

Zuck: The average American has three friends.
Scene from the film What We Do in the Shadows with 3 vampires standing on a hallway dressed in three very different, but equally outlandish ways. There's a top hat, a giant furry jacket, a frock coat and cravat.

Imagine you're being summoned. What GIF represents that?
From the silent film Nosferatu. Count Orlock rises from his coffin in a single upright motion.

This is floating around over there and gave me a good laugh.
Coffee shop message board featuring the "Ides of March special." It's the "Et tu Latte," honey, almond, and cinnamon syrup with steamed milk and espresso." It's described as "a drink fit for a senator."

Floof showing one toof.
Fluffy cat lying down, showing mostly her white underside. Close up, just face and shoulders, with her little brown patch of fur on one white cheek and a dark smudge on her pink nose. One tooth visible.

Psychedelic swirls around the caption, "Now that's what I call yikes!" If you know any of those old tv adverts for compilation albums, that's the style of it.

Hand-eye coordination?
Photo of a fluffy, furry blanket and its care instructions. All the usual things, like do not dry clean and do not bleach, but the last symbol is labeled "hand-eye coordination."

"You'll be visited by three spirits."

The three spirits:
a photo of David Bowie, Iggy Pop, and Lou Reed arm in arm. Iggy, in the center, has something in his mouth. A wallet, maybe? He's looking dead into the camera with a wallet in his mouth. Lou and Bowie are not reacting to it at all, just posing.

There is another cat in the garden and Jess is howling through the window at it with great vengeance and furious anger.

I was just looking up recipes and one of my suggestions was the Bristol stool chart.

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy.
A man stares off in the distance. The caption says, "I bring a sort of rotisserie chicken vibe to sleeping that cuddlers don't really like."

It's a good morning here in the UK. Waking up to videos of thousands of anti-fascists hitting the streets vs a tiny number of far-right dickheads.
A handful of sad fascists struggling with flags, isolated on a roundabout in Blackpool as disinterested cars pass them by. Dubbed the "Tragic Roundabout."

Catching up with Dracula Daily. #DraculaDaily
A pringles can, paprika flavour, because of Jonathan Harker's preoccupation with paprika at the start of Dracula.

Show off your cat in a box!

This is an oldie but goodie.
Jess the cat asleep in a wine box. No logo showing on box. It's all about the relaxed kitty smile.

It's May Day, so it's time to keep my annual appointment with The Wicker Man dvd.
Still photograph from 1972's The Wicker Man, with Christopher Lee, arms raised, in the foreground and a large Wicker man atop a pile of wood for a bonfire in the background. Lee is wearing a tweed jacket with elbow patches and a sunny yellow turtleneck. His hair is standing out around his head like a child's drawing of the sun. Imprisoned the wicker man you can just make out the white-robed figure of a man.

On his birthday.
Graffiti on a concrete wall: "Big up Isambard Kingdom Brunel" with a doodle of a guy in a top hat smoking a cigar. Wish I knew where I saved it from so I could give credit.
