This cat was deep black when she arrived at our house. She’s gotten progressively more orange as though bleached. Maybe it’s like a summer thing for her. Beach fur #CatsOfBluesky
Built a new couch ramp for Weeze today. Experimenting with the best non-slip fabric to upholster it. I like this pic because she looks like a product shill going “oh my god I can’t believe how EASY it is to get down!” We’ll get it permanently upholstered tomorrow #DogsOfBluesky
In today's featured Editor Pick: A bittersweet and magical piece that examines the difference between being loved and believing you deserve it. It's Witness to Bad things by Vivian M. Liu. Read it for free at gavagai.com

Thrilled to announce that I’ve signed with @michelle4laughs.bsky.social at @stormliterary.bsky.social to bring my adult horror novel THIS IS A PLACE OF ENDINGS to readers. I knew finding the right agent would be a long journey, but I couldn’t imagine a more rewarding end than to work with Michelle!
