I sang the chorus of "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" as "Fanny in the Sky with Diamonds" and she turned her head and looked at me patiently every time I sang her name, then looked ahead again through three choruses #catsofbluesky #blackcats #cats #catsky
Felix is NOT helping me deep clean the bathroom. I need to rewrite his contract. #catsofbluesky #blackcats #cats #catsky

If you're not keeping up with Raygun's T-shirts this summer then YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG! I get compliments and great conversations every single time I wear a Raygun T-shirt in public -- people stop me to find out where I got it. I'm considering carrying their business cards. Seriously. #raygun

if a president started an annual county fair day at the white house, i think that would probably be fine, tbh
This week’s #OliveArtClub prompt is a classic: please make a picture of this apple. Total beginners welcome (everyone is really supportive!), digital or traditional mediums okay, no AI. I took the picture, all humans are free to share or sell their images based on it. Enjoy!
So I'm TRAPPED in my bedroom with Fanny and Felix. Why, you ask? Some genius put a restored Steinway grand in the living room of my house AND three people play it on the reg. House footprint is 900 sq ft. Wood floors. Entire house is basically a soundboard. Am losing sanity. #piano #catsofbluesky

Anyone else fucking sick of Brian May planting daffodils in his village www.ctvnews.ca/entertainmen...
Queen guitarist Brian May barred from planting daffodils in his village on safety grounds
Legendary rocker Brian May became a local hero in the quiet English village where he lives when he donated thousands of daffodil bulbs to brighten up the green outside the church last year.

I saved my marriage YET AGAIN by not bringing home the two orange tabby brothers I met at the vet and instead being satisfied with my two void kitty siblings. I didn't even take pix of the tabbies b/c I knew I would have shown them to my husband. We have a two cat limit. Sigh. #catsofbluesky
If you're interested in a great live-posting of a judge administering a masterful slap down of a lazy/incompetent attorney trying to justify using generative AI in legal work ... Randy is your guy! Awesome thread.
Randy Herman@randyhermanlaw.com · 5mo agoHello and welcome on the Terry Sanford Federal Building in beautiful downtown Raleigh, NC where I will be live-posting a show cause hearing starting at 4:00 ET
Not quite sure how to confess this: I woke this morning to find spearmint chewing gum stuck in Fanny's fur. She was sharing my pillow when I fell asleep. I just might have been chewing gum. Fanny is now gum-free. (scissors were used) #catsofbluesky #blackcats #cats #catsky
The most delightful thread you will read this week (don't skip the alt text)
Tom Cox@dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social · 5mo agoTHREAD. 3 & 1/4 years ago, with no warning, a brilliant orange farm cat wandered over from the draughty barn where he'd been living, in rural Cornwall, & decided he wanted to live with us instead. We decided to call him Jim. This is the first photo I took of him, on that night: December 1st 2022
Fanny is ignoring me because she DOES NOT LIKE this broken leg situation and finds me boring and clumsy. #catsofbluesky #blackcats #cats #catsky
Felix learns I'm turning into a cyborg! (that's the part they fixed. the fibula that my surgeon referred to as "obliterated" they just leave alone) #catsofbluesky #blackcats #cats #catsky
Fanny would say good morning if she wasn't already halfway asleep. It's "first nap" time, which comes after first breakfast. (she's already asleep) #catsofbluesky #blackcats #cats #catsky
This is my life now -- me and my broken leg covered with a blanket and Felix asleep in my lap. I was complaining but I've changed my mind and now I'm just bragging. This is my life! And Fanny is snoozing next to me also! Cats are great. #catsofbluesky #blackcats #cats #catsky
