the Anxiety Loaf stopped by #ProofOfCat
A beautiful brown tabby cat crouches on a patio table in a very scruffy garden. His yellow-green eyes gaze piercingly at the camera. He is not, however, looking into your soul, dear viewer. He is simply telepathically reviewing the contents of your cupboards. He knows you have plenty of Whiskas wet food packets. Give them up already.

"I can't BELIEVE she put her baby in our food bowl."
Detail of a painting of a nativity scene. Chonky Baby Jesus reclines on his manger-bed lower right, while a very irritated cow glares at him in the background.

A bar I visited tonight had an art vending machine where I was able to purchase this excellent stocking-stuffer for The Child.

toilet discourse
Writing on a bathroom wall. Bold hand: “the lighting in here is not entirely conducive to casual drug use—or writing on the wall. Just saying.” Under that, more faintly, is written: “I like this. 👍”

It was a two-nap day. Anybody here a vampire? Have any tips for newbies?

I work 55+ hours a week so he can live like this. #proofofcat
A devastatingly handsome tuxedo cat lies overcome by fatigue in the middle of a yoga pose. He is resting on a blue cushion which is resting on a green leather footstool. Pink toe beans are visible below his chin and on the paw of his outstretched back leg.

Me: It's Thanksgiving in America today.

The Child: But it's THINGSgiving here.
Millie Bobby Brown as Eleven in Stranger Things, sitting inside of a junked-out bus in the Upside Down doing her remote-viewing schtick. She wears a blue bandana over her eyes and sits cross-legged, holding a walkie-talkie in one hand. For some reason she is dressed like Josh Brolin's character in The Goonies.

Lovely run back from school along the canal this morning, though not everyone seemed to appreciate the cold snap.

7-sided die for the final session of our six-year-long D&D campaign. Not sure what the DM has planned for it, but it’ll be weird.

Nice night out with two fellow immigrants at one of the best cocktail bars in the city. This drink tasted like a chilled apple Jolly Rancher
Shot of a cocktail menu describing a drink called Mr. Bojangles: the Singleton 12-year-old whisky, sparkling sencha, and green apple Shot of the drink itself on a bar top, with a big block of ice in it.

I take a break from editing audio to feed this guy and he gives me this judgemental stare. I will rake the lawn later, dude, okay?
A beautiful male brown tabby crouches in the "alert loaf" position on a patio table, his green eyes mingling suspicion with hope of Whiskas. Behind him is an unkempt lawn littered with sycamore leaves.
