Oh, here’s the evidence 😅

We’re very pro-cat here at #KCookandCatsCo!

We’re having an indescribably terrifying morning at the #KCookandCatsCo offices, bc someone put on @maddow.bsky.social & Sen. Mark Warner is sounding the high alert about the death of democracy.

You guys might as well watch it and get terrified and upset too.

One of my favorite parts of my job here at #KcookandCatsCo is handling all the catworking, which is what you call networking when #cats do it 😽

1 thing you should know about #KcookandCatsCo #cat & board-member @bomani-hamletcook.bsky.social is that he has, like, an internal speedometer & if you take him even slightly faster than 15mph he *will* throw up 🤢

Weirdly, Dramamine kinda works, tho I have to remember to give it to him 😬

Is that unpopular? I’m the biggest MSNOW stan in the world, it’s all we watch here at #KCookandCatsCo TV-news-wise, but Joe Scarborough seems like a Republican to me, and I’ve never watched a single segment without having to turn it off in disgust.

Not one, single segment. It’s bad!

It’s Brutal(ly Long) | The Brutalist (2024) Movie Review “punishingly hard or uncomfortable,” defines the OED. Mmmhm… 🙂‍↕️ | #OscarsHomework

The runtime VERY MUCH put me off lol 🤣

This is also a fun meta-story about AMC wrongfully terminating me. My The Brutalist review is kind of a seminal #KCookandCatsCo moment 🤓

medium.com/@kcookandcat...

It is still a #Miaouscar winner, though the one that explicitly squeaked in last year.

I bet I retweet a bunch of stuff today, so if you usually follow for my thoughts, you’ll get those, too, but this projects to be a very 🔁-heavy kind of day.

Bear with us, and we’ll be back to our usual bullshit soon! 🤓

@bomani-hamletcook.bsky.social has his socials and his writing, but he doesn’t have to sit for photos (which he hates) or wear costumes (which he HATES).

I could just tell none of the #KCookandCatsCo #cats is into being photographed (except Peaches, who kinda loves it), so we don’t do #catcontent 🤓

Isn't that gorgeous? The statue pops, the text location and size makes more sense. Clearly someone with taste got ahold of my ideas, and shaped them into something beautiful and useful, and that would be Tanner who knocked it out in a half-hour, I believe.

Thanks to @reelrank.bsky.social (Tanner) who banged out a much-more-competent version of my 1st-year image in (literally) 1/10th the time it took me last year.

I am *not* a #graphicdesigner!

So I'm very pleased with the look. This should be out... tomorrow? 🤷‍♀️

I totally feel the impulse, but I think the 4 #KCookandCatsCo cats all like the personal space, and bellies are pretty rare/tough, especially to just GO FOR like that 😬

What set Mark off, if anyone is curious, is that I was playing video games in the living room, where he made us put them so we could be watched (they're total fucking creeps, my parents, and wanted to watch everything everyone was doing constantly), and my mom had the nerve to say to me, "Every time I look up you’re on that goddamned video game,” which was 1. A total lie, and 2. Hilarious that she was so irritated she ‘took the Lord’s name in vain,’ which was something she usually pretended she cared about, so I felt pretty loose and flippant, and shot back, without looking, “Well, look up more often, then. I barely play it.” 
And my dad LOST HIS SHIT. It was also hilarious. I wasn’t worried he’d hurt me, because there were too many eyeballs there in the living room, so it was just immediately hysterical how triggered he was, and he stormed over to where I was playing it, ripped both systems out of the wall, fucked up the plaster and drywall and wallpaper, and the table the TV was sitting on, the TV, too, lol, and dragged this big ball of appliance-wires and consoles and controllers to our deck, and tried to gather it all (it was like a Mr. Bean film, watching this; I was dying laughing immediately, like, DOUBLED OVER, crying and gasping, I was laughing so hard) and hurl it down the three stories to the basement patio, and he finally managed to do it, and he’d just tuckered himself all out by the time he came back inside.
Oh, my god, I’m dying laughing NOW just typing it. It’s one of my happiest memories with my terrible, dumb father 😂

I did not mean to get this deep into #KCookandCatsCo #personallore, but this was so funny to me as I started to write it up, I couldn't stop 🤣

Read it or don't, idc, but it's sincerely 1 of my happiest memories w/ my dad, if that tells you anything about our relationship.

That’s literally, actually true. Kay is sensitive to that sort of thing

On the real, when 1 of us 4 #KCookandCatsCo cats dies, you’ll never hear about it. Kay intends to ghoulishly keep our memories alive in perpetuity bc the sadness of losing us is too much.

Kay says this stuff *out loud* to us 🙀

Also, real or not, #KcookandCatsCo still has to award the #Miaouscars, so def not quite the end 🤓

a black and white cat is thinking about a can of rockstar energy drink Alt: a black and white cat is thinking about a can of rockstar energy drink That’s actually a good default caption, for once. I just love this lol. An intersection of my two greatest and least-surmountable addictions 😆

The last time I was #writing at #Panera (which I treat like my office, bc I can’t work near the #KCookandCatsCo #cats) & didn’t have a Rockstar, 1 of the staff who had never spoken to me before, while sweeping, went, “Whoa! No Rockstar today?” and it shamed me.

Esp now, as I sit here drinking one 😅

It's a blend of new and old awards. Ocean's Eleven is Best of the Best for Music, Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead is Best of the Best for Writing, and American Psycho holds the top-top slot as our greatest all-time film. Also, the best Music of 2025 was The Secret Agent, and Train Dreams had the best Editing and Visuals of 2025, I feel.

Get hyped! These will be out as soon as I finish writing them. How many Miaouscar winners this year?? Last year, we had 7, which struck me as a lot, and I suspect it may be fewer this year.

I'm writing up our #KCookandCatsCo #ACatemyAwards rn, which prompted me to give more #ReelRank awards.

As far as the #cats & I are concerned, this is the real Awards Season 🤩

I think the #film with the best #music / #score in history is #Ocean'sEleven 😎

Here's the full slate of 6 awards for 2025! If you can't see it, here's how it broke down:

Best Design: Hamnet
Best Music: The Secret Agent
Best Editing: Train Dreams
Best Directing: Hamnet (Chloé Zhao)
Best Visuals: Train Dreams
Best Acting: Hamnet
Best Writing: Bugonia
Best Film: Hamnet

And having seen all 10 Best Picture noms, and a handful of the other nominees, I feel very good about that class of winners.

Some folks are more visual learners, and here, the movie posters accompany the awards, which you have read on the other alt-text. Hamnet appears four times (makes sense; it was, by far, my favorite), Train Dreams awarded twice, and Bugonia and The Secret Agent both awarded once, and again, that feels very right based on the mouth feel and apparent qualities of those films.

I didn't make it through all of #OscarsHomework, but I certainly got far enough to be fairly definitive & conclusive about these 8 awards.

Incredible 🤩

My #cats emphatically will not accept any costuming. #KCookandCatsCo had a rough 2 years learning that lesson the hard way, but I learned it.

(When I was a reporter, I got 2 of them fedoras w/ press badges in the brim w/ paw prints for Halloween, & they nearly killed me) 😬

Well, there is now only 1 #BestPicture nominee remaining, so anyone who has been paying any attention could probably name what's up next.

I now unironically want this sign from this #SNL sketch for the #KCookandCatsCo house 😆

“I am sexually promiscuous & my house is dirty.”

Only half of that is true at the moment, but I had a pretty misspent youth 😅
