Not actually Batgirl.

If this account were a book, it would be a spicy, queer manifesto with a side of sarcastic footnotes and a oatmilk Earl Grey latte with lavender syrup.

JFK definitely had his issues but he was a marvelous speaker and I am unsurprised people loved him so much.

I am so sorry, Gonzo. Here’s Redford trespassing on a speaker to make you feel better.

@gonzo.bsky.social Redford says hello from his box.
A box laying on its side on a wood floor with an absurdly floofy orange cat judging the world from inside it. His tail is quite poofy.

Who needs AI when you have Procreate stamps and brushes and super cool effects?

A digital portrait utilizing Procreate stamps and effects. The portrait is of a woman from the 1920s (looks like an old photo) with glasses and autumn hued flowers on her hat/hair. She’s wearing a brown high neck shirt. The background is golden brown and textured, looking 3D.

@charliebrowntc.bsky.social was the world’s best cat and we will all miss him.

Our old demon cat who loved to perch on my bathtub and play with the bubbles is waiting for him over the rainbow bridge that she’s in charge of (probably.)
A black and white demon floof only slightly resembling an actual cat. She has a very very big stomach.

Here are two of our departed angels, Kitty (left) and Queen (right.) Queen was survived by a brother, Bowie. She was a nut job.

Kitty outlived my mom - he was with us for a good 21 years. Kitty’s mom, Astra, lived 18 years. They saw my sister through her cancer treatments.
