Behold! Postcard from my collection, no date.
Sepia toned black and white photo of a scruffy medium haired dark tabby kitten being held aloft by a white male hand coming from outside the frame. The kitten look proudly into the distance and has a light colored ribbon bow around its neck.

Cookies 'n cream seals 🍪🦭
Two illustrations in one image of very round seals partaking in some delicious chocolate chip cookies. The top one is brown with dark brown speckles, and is happily chewing on a chocolate chip cookie in its mouth. The bottom seal is white with grey speckles, and is holding a white chocolate chip cookie on its tummy, clearly having already eaten a few from the roundness of its face and the tell-tale crumbs around its mouth. There are a few chocolate chip cookies floating around these hungry seals. Something tells me they won’t be there for much longer…

From a poetry collection by Mary Oliver, where after a hundred poems showcasing gentle observations on nature and animals, she hits you with this
OF THE EMPIRE We will be known as a culture that feared death and adored power, that tried to vanquish insecurity for the few and cared little for the penury of the many. We will be known as a culture that taught and rewarded the amassing of things, that spoke little if at all about the quality of life for people (other people), for dogs, for rivers. All the world, in our eyes, they will say, was a commodity. And they will say that this structure was held together politically, which it was, and they will say also that our politics was no more than an apparatus to accommodate the feelings of the heart, and that the heart, in those days, was small, and hard, and full of meanness.

We love the cover on this Folio Society edition of Chance by Joseph Conrad.

But once you've seen the angry gingerbread man shouting at the moon, you can't unsee it.
Chance by Joseph Conrad published by the Folio Society. The cover shows the silhouette of a ships wheel on the desk of a ship with the moon in the distance. The shape also looks like the shape of a gingerbread man with his arms raised.

in the style of Ariana Grande in Wicked:
A 19th century painting of a hog, except it has been edited so that the hog is so massive that it has now been superimposed over the Milky Way. The hog is translucent, too, so you can see the universe a glow behind it. Above the hog reads the caption 'unlimited', although an accent (an umlaut) has been added above the u for comedic effect.

If you need a permission slip to leave Twitter, this is it. I also give you permission to replace shoes that don't fit, a mattress or chair that hurts your back, and glasses that are the wrong prescription.

Life is hard enough. There is no valor in unnecessary suffering.
