Selfie of me in purple headband, Halloween themed mask and sunglasses on Brighton beach with the sea behind me

Tree outside Hove Town Hall that has been blown over - hanging to the earth by a sliver of bark and interior, the jagged raw ends of the wood visible.

Black cat sits on the windowsill of a grey brick Victorian terrace

Seagull stands in a puddle above its reflection. The puddle also reveals a streetlight and a poster for fish and chips.

Via After Dark 💜

@viaafterdark.bsky.social

Shenanigans with my cat-themed MTG deck.
I call it the "cat cop" deck - it's a mono white Commander deck where all but one of the creatures is a Cat type, and there are tons of cards which essentially "handcuff" your opponent's heavy hitters so they can't attack or block. And there's life gain

A Magic the Gathering card on a playmat. It has four enchantment aura cards attached to it, giving it buffs, flying, lifelink, etc.

Happy Halloween!!

Stay safe and have fun!! :D

🧡🐯🎃🍂🍁

Aubade, an anthro tiger cub is sitting at a table, wearing overalls and a Halloween themed sweater. On the table sits Spike, a tiger plush, and a giant pumpkin with a cat face carved into it. The pumpkin has a candle inside that makes the entire room glow. Aubade’s paw rests atop the pumpkin. They are unaware of a ghostly figure that stands behind them! (It’s Pupcake my secondary kidsona!) the bg is a cozy blurred image of a kitchen

Here's one for the cat lover because Det. Jamie Wallace has cats. A signed copy of SHADOW PLAY, a 1000- piece cat-themed puzzle and a smaller one, a cat mug, caramel truffles, chocolate ladyfingers, a chocolate Toonie, and Xmas ornaments in a fabric basket. The cello wrap has paw prints on it!

An image of fall themed flowers and two pictures on the bottom left and top right corners of a brown and white tabby cat. On the top right corner is a picture of fat light skinned hands making a shape of a lump on a cats shoulder blade. The bottom left is a picture of a Brown and white tabby cat with her paws crossed on a pink and white striped bedding. There is text that says "Mutual Aid Request My 18-19 year old cat Misa has a golf ball size lump on her shoulder blade and is in urgent need of funds to help cover the vet visit to get check out and possibly re moved to see if it's cancer or benign. We appreciate anything. Goal is $600 for the visit and Ubers to and from the vets.

This year I am having a vintage themed Christmas. I haven’t decorated in a couple years. I can’t wait to send out Christmas cards! I have a funny vintage theme in mind for my WoW friends and a cute one for my non WoW friends. ☺️

I looked at my childhood cat figurine for inspiration. 🎄

A vintage ceramic white cat with a pink box sits atop A stack of video game recipes and vegan cookbooks. Next to it is a locked wooden box containing my cat Mango’s ashes.

That or I was the late-middle aged dorky cat lady who used her 18 cats' activities and interpositioning as a form of divination. Absolutely everything in her life was cat-themed. Both were perfect characters. Unknown Armies is still probably my favorite RPG.

👻 A Very Spooky Collaboration!!! 👻

Huge thanks to all the wonderful artists who contributed to this piece! Their socials will be linked in the comments :>

A Scooby Doo themed painting featuring several different artists' characters, within different colored hallways.

A wolf dressed as a ghost chases a scared frog, behind a sleuthing detective rabbit, a flashlight carrying sphynx cat, and a short man on a ladder about to hit the monster creeping out of the doorway with a bat.

A mummy chases another group in an egyptian tomb, a black cat dressed as Velma has tripped and lost her glasses, a fashionable bunny notices the commotion and nearly steps on a scorpion, a white cat has her cannon ready for any danger, and a tan bunny leads the way with her trusty Magnifying Glass.

A ghostly pirate floats above the ground and chases our Velma dressed cat in a seance themed room, a mouse is investigating a large ice cube with a cavedeer trapped inside. I bet she's glad they's in there and that she's out here.
