Hi there! I'm a robot wrangler, freelance writer, choir singer, community manager, cat paparazzo, and Oxford comma enthusiast from Denver, Colorado. I've been autistic since forever and type 1 diabetic since 2016. Pronouns are she/her/hers.

5I think this cat is 1000% belly and 0.02% spine.

I don't remember whether I've posted this before, but for today we have Orion not quite being sure what to do at the vet's office.

I have one wish in life and that's to be as comfortable as this cat.

Oh, to be a sleepy cat.

Some poor schmuck at the NHL's scheduling department is seriously regretting making San Jose/Chicago the nationally televised game tonight. 🤣 @hnom

Today's Orion spam from the archives: lots of knitting help. So much knitting help. Almost more help than I can possibly deal with. Also, I would love to have a test to see how much of my cat is microplastics by volume nowadays.

I've said it before and I'll keep saying it. If I ever find the witch who'll "curse" me to be a cat for the rest of my life, I am absolutely accepting that bargain.

🧵Via Clara Jeffery: 1/…

When I heard that had multiple myeloma—which my dad died of—I wondered if he'd get stem cell treatment despite having voted & campaigned against stem cell therapy. My dad was too old for this option. Lucky for Scalise, hypocrisy is no barrier

Jake Sherman: STEVE SCALISE will be out of DC until Feb…getting a stem-cell transplant.

House GOP has 220-seat majority. Bill Johnson is out Jan. 21. After that, w Scalise out, GOP will have a bare bones 218-seat majority

@GottaLaff There's an essay from 2000 that comes to my mind in situations like this. "The Only Moral Abortion Is My Abortion" by Joyce Arthur. https://joycearthur.com/abortion/the-only-moral-abortion-is-my-abortion/

@michaelgemar @Npars01 @GottaLaff Makes sense. Wilhoit's Law in action. "Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

Today is a vintage Orion spam! From circa 2019.

Last night a local friend and I went to see the lights at the Denver Botanic Gardens, per our tradition. And I really like one of the pictures I took. @photography

Orion wishes you all ample companionship and plenty of feline supervision in 2024.

Last of 2023 is a good one! And very sleepy.

Does this look like the face of a cat who would ever consider being naughty? I mean, obviously yes it does.

Orion has come to an understanding with Audrey and Charlotte the spider plants. They won't completely take over my office, and he won't chomp their stolons off. He doesn't particularly like this understanding, but he begrudgingly accepts it.

It is 2:30 pm on a Friday and I am watching the cat sleep and thinking about how a massive nuclear reaction has sent a bunch of photons 93 million miles just to warm this cat's ears as he sleeps. As feline royalty surely deserves.

My cat is very dedicated to keeping his socks clean.

I love squinchy happy cat faces. Especially in sunbeams.

Radio ad for a local car dealership: "When you have four-wheel drive, who cares about snow?"

Me, who is a better driver than half the city by virtue of not driving and who is sick of nearly getting hit by people who have this attitude: "You. No. You're the problem."

Once again we are a day late for Whiskers Wednesday. And I am too eager to share this to wait for Friday Fangs, which I just made up. But I don't care, and clearly neither does the cat.

After that second period I did not have Calgary pegged as the team that would be pulling their goalie at the end of the third.

Sometimes you just need an extremely action-y action shot.

A lot of people will say they don’t need accessibility functionality or features without realizing they already use them.

@annaecook There's a very popular brand of kitchen/household gadgets called OXO that got its start doing adaptive stuff like can openers for people with weakness in their hands. Abled people realized that a lot of these designs made things way easier for them too. The curb cut effect strikes again.
