Setting: A living room, with a couch in the background and various clutter. There are three cats in the picture, their ears almost in alignment. In the foreground is the back of the head of a grey cat. Middle ground is a black cat and background is a white/black cow cat, both looking at the camera.
Coming soon - the Alignment of the Ears
A black cat and a grey cat lay on a red blanket with white snowflakes. The grey cat has his peets crossed very politely in front of him. The black cat is in loaf form.
Two distinguished gentlemen

A black cat is sitting just inside a doorway on white tile. The cat is pretending to sniff at the doorway, ears back, as if he did not just try to dash out of the house and was not just stopped in his attempt.
Someone disapproves of being thwarted from dashing outside.

Woohoo!! Found a book I've been looking for for about a decade, that was half remembered from my childhood. :D Small light in the darkness.
A grey cat sleeping stretched out on a red blanket with white snowflakes on a couch, his legs are dangling in front of him off of the edge of the couch cushion.
Ok, so I'm occasionally not great at this 'posting every day' thing. Have some dangly peets.

A white cat with black patches reaches up for a giant cherry pastry with a single bite out of it.
Countdown day 1413:
Someone wants my breakfast. Also I have discovered the pastry section at Costco. That's a dangerous section right there.

Countdown day 1416:
"Purrent..... it is 5 minutes to dinnertime. And you think you can distract me with a wandtoy??"

Please listen and share—this is a very serious situation. This is extremely alarming! The Trump administration, across two agencies, is considering bringing criminal charges against employees simply for doing their jobs.
Why would Musk, who the Trump administration claims in court is not in charge of DOGE, tell a bunch of republican senators that he's in charge of DOGE? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
A grey cat sniffs at a blue plastic collapsible flute

Playing with a collapsible flute I 3D printed (*magical *), and someone decided to become a music critic.

Except the tankies have never been close to power in this country, and the Nazis definitely have, so I know which one I'm more worried about. (And I'd be center-left in a saner place like Europe)
A grey cat paw with grey-pink toebeans and copious floof between the toes
Countdown day 1419: Almost forgot, but I didn't. Have a floofy peet.

For those of us who maybe haven't kept up with the details - how much is the book? Want to make sure I have enough cash :)
Just so we're clear was it not a crisis when it was the other way around?
A black cat looks at the camera while snagging a dangling red and white cat toy with the claws of his right front paw. A grey cat looks at the paw snagging the toy, to the left of the black cat.
Countdown day 1420:
The senior Master Toy-catcher deploys the claw-paw technique to snag his prey without even looking, as his stunned protege looks on in awe. Later, he may go and hunt a dirty sock from the laundry bin!
#CatsOfBluesky
A grey floofy cat sits on top of an empty bookcase on it's side, which is in front of a couch. The cat is refusing to look at the camera.
Countdown day 1422:
The face of a cat who is pretending very hard that he does not understand the word "no". He is full of crimes today.
#CatsOfBluesky
this is the best pov i've seen on this so far tbh, i am v much seeing this thing today as opening the door to people who otherwise might not have realized how varied activism actually is and how many opportunities there are to participate
The camera's POV is the POV of a human looking down at their torso, wearing a teal shirt. A black cat and a grey cat are sitting on said human, with a laptop and blanket in the background.
Countdown day 1423:
Who am I, but a cat mattress?
#CatsOfBluesky
Has Brisket been informed he is a little guy today?
A grey cat looks attentively down from a shelf at the edge of a black cat's tail
Countdown day 1424:
A wild (for certain levels of wild) grey cat spots his prey - his brother's tail!
#CatsOfBluesky
A white cat with black spots (cowcat) lays like a French model on a black/white paisley handkerchief and a blue couch.
Countdown day 1425:
"Might purr
Might hiss
Still deciding
Always cute"

All three of mine don't even need eye contact! Basically all meetings must be attended (discretely, under the table) and all data verified by a supurrrvisor.
A black cat and a grey cat wrassle on a white rug with blue/grey swooping lines. The grey cat is current on the bottom, with the black cat pinning him.
Countdown day 1426: Not saying that I egged them on while wrassling, but also not saying that I didn't :P There may or may not have been singing of 'kung foo fighting' involved. (Those cats were fast as lightning!)
#CatsOfBluesky
A senior black cat stares off into the distance past the viewer's right shoulder, sitting stately and tall. In the bottom right of the picture, a caucasian face can partially be seen
Countdown day 1427:
Voidboi - stately, statuesque, and creating a gravity well /riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiggghhhhtttt/ on my nip.

If you're finding it hard to create stuff right now, be kind to yourself. Not only is shit real fucking bad, but this is the last desperate gasps of the cold, dark season. It's hard to do ANYTHING when the world is cold and dark, but the sun will be back soon, bilge rats. We'll get through it.
Let's say their names:
* General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: FIRED FOR BEING BLACK
* Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Chief of Naval Operations: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE
* Admiral Linda Fagan, Coast Guard Commandant: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE
All replaced by less qualified white guys.
The new sign of how much the BoD messed up - the SCAllion came out of retirement for it :P
MIDNIGHT CRAB
Ok, I'm doing a version of this thread for 🧪 who are new to political conditions where info security is a safety issue:
1. Don't make public lists of people who are engaging in acts of resistance
2. Be weary of calls to advertise acts of subversion
3. Don't live post resistance meetings
