A black cat with one eye is sitting up on a blue fleece blanket. Much of her fur is rusty red, her yellow eye is very dilated, and the whisker that grow on her blind side are all white.

So please, send all your love and luck. She has had a wonderful 8 and a half years with me, out of who knows how many years she had total. She will have an urn custom painted with her portrait, and she will be my shadow forever.

Be kind to yourselves, as Freja would be.

Friends, I know I haven't been here in ages, but I wanted to update my old cat twitter friends on some important news.

Tomorrow (September 25, 2025), Freja will be going to her final vet appointment. Her kidneys have finally failed, and it's causing her other organs to fail too.

a comic. a possum is rummaging around inside a trash can. It erupts from the can holding something in its paws. “hey!” she says. She holds out the desktop calendar. “Today is June 24th! Look!” She leans on the edge of the trash can. “that means today is make a terrible comic day!” She produces a ballpoint pen from the trash and clicks it. “the idea is to just make something! no rules, just enjoy the act of creation! (Or don’t and just do it anyway)” she is drawing on the cardboard back of the calendar. “tell a story, tell a joke, make something silly or sublime or totally abstract! make something and don’t stop making it until it’s made!” She holds up her little comic with pride. “tell your inner critic to ‘fuck off!’ make a terrible comic!”

Happy #makeaterriblecomicday2025! It’s mandatory that you create some piece of sequential art — what it is and how you make it is up to you! Have fun! You might as well!

Aphids! They're all aphids. The brown ones might be something else but they look aphid shaped so I'm not sure.

I saw this parent Egyptian goose nudging their babies with their feet and missed the video, but then they did a FULL ON STOMP. It's all good. babies are plyable. They're OK! ❤️ 🪶 🥰

@dani007a.bsky.social this cat has your name!! And her eyes match your stream avatar 😁

Remembering Dr. Alan Hart for Pride, trans man from the early 1900s. He revolutionized the detection of tuberculosis, saved thousands of lives, and died using his name, as the man he always was meant to be.

Green herons are ridiculous. I didn't think they could look any more ridiculous...turns out I've never seen a teen green heron. Amazing. I love him.

This was the most stressful week or work in a couple months, really glad I got to end it with these two real life muppets. Baby bird season is a great brain cleanser. 🪶 🐣

So, I think it's time I begin, in detailed specifics, talking about the mess that is Unbound / Boundless as a book publisher, in essence stealing most of a years royalties from me and many other authors, as a result of poor financial decisions, and legal BS.

Thankfully, I separated my calendar contracts from my book contracts a few years ago, so I am still being paid for those, and they're a good base income. (Please preorder my 2026 calendars at eatf.art)

With merch and appearance revenue, I'm gonna be okay, just uncomfortable for a couple of years.

some milk I used to make Forbidden Percentages. I didn't mention 2% in my post though. I gotta keep some secrets

by carefully mixing 10% cream with 1% skim milk, you can unlock forbidden milk percentages the government doesn't want you to know about, like 7.725%

I swear if y’all don’t start using alt text particularly if you’re trying to raise awareness about some political activity going on locally where you are.

Had to tell someone at risk of redundancy that unfortunately I couldn't help them because they are not a member of the Union. Join your Union, kids, and do it today, especially if you have been putting it off.

Article from Tech Crunch: Meta Al now has 1B monthly active users Meta Al now has one billion monthly active users across its apps, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said at the company's annual shareholder meeting on Wednesday, as first reported by CNBC. The new milestone doubles the 500 million monthly active users Meta Al had back in September 2024. The "focus for this year is deepening the experience and making Meta Al the leading personal Al with an emphasis on personalization, voice conversations and entertainment, ," Zuckerberg said.

This is such a joke. If you force the AI update onto all of your users and they accidentally hit the AI features every once in a while, then sure, you have a billion “active” users. Why is the media going along with this scam!

A flowchart that goes as follows: "What breed is my cat?" This leads to the question "Does it have papers from a breeder?" if the answer is "yes" it leads to "It is what those papers say it is." If the answer is "no" it leads to "It is a cat."

Periodic reminder that over 90% of cats are not a "breed". The vast majority of longhaired tabbies are not Maine Coons. Most grey cats are not Russian Blues. Most black cats are not Bombays. They're just lovely, perfect mixed breed cats that come in all colors and coat lengths!

Kittens are a miracle of medical science sometimes

So, I was checking my kitten cam and saw one of the black kittens loafing on the leaf of the cat tree, and two others were zooming. I was like “aw Scoots is running so fast!” Then I realized… it was SCOOTER on the tree! How the heck did he get up there!? Well, apparently we are climbing now.

I guess the US ending up with a 4Chan administration that gets all its ideas from the worst people on the internet is a lesson in just how silly everything can get when we allow dangerous, intellectually dishonest people to think their opinions are valuable.

Today’s Scooter update/recap comes in musical form :3

(Video description: a montage of clips of Scooter, a little black kitten who was hit by a car and paralyzed, chronicling his recovery and how he regained use of his legs and showing him progressing to walking, even running).

You will never guess who got Francie stuck in this cabinet (spoiler alert: it was Francie).
