I don’t know whether someone had the most amazing timing or great skills with Photoshop, but this looks cool either way.

what a cat

It’s horrible that this is necessary, but I’m glad there are people who do it.

Three cheers for these guys [x]

Are there people who don’t?  I tell my cats that I love them and I’ll be back whenever I leave.

Oh I take it way further than that.

I tell them about any errands I have to run after work that will lead me to being later than normal.

I tell them approximately how late I will be because of those errands and reassure them that I will in fact be home.

I remind them how close the weekend is.

On weekends I tell them where I’m going, how long it will take me, and offer up treats or a trip to the dog park as a bargaining chip for letting me go out.

I tell them to have good naps while I’m out.

I tell the small one, “No poops while I’m gone.”

I tell the big one not to be scared if it’s stormy outside.

I tell them they are good girls

I tell them I love them.

And ONLY THEN do I leave the house.

Sad but true.

Beautifully said!

Neil Gaiman on Libraries and Librarians.

Very true!

I love you!

I love InspiroBot!

someone created a random generator that creates randomized inspirational quotes overlaid on random images in a soothing fashion and each and every image is comic gold

Yay!  There’s a new dragon hoard.

an UNUSUAL HOARD commission for malytwotails featuring their dragon maly gettin REAL CLEAN

all the soap with pawprints are actually straight from their own contact soaps and scents store ! i dont know the process for making soap but if its anything like smelling a bunch of them at once its probably great

Yay for pride variety!

so I did pretty much this last year, but I really wanted to remake it so it was larger, better done and included the lesbian flag because I forgot it last year

anyone who starts discourse on this will be blocked.

Woo-hoo!  We need more of this in real life, for all types of denying someone’s identity.

(I would have added more but I ran out of puns)

Swoon!  I love both of the little dragony things.  

Here’s to second chances.  (And third and fourth, and completely new chances at something different.)

I am turning 26 very soon, and a week ago I lost my chance at a life and a love better than my dreams, mostly by my own fault. I am applying to the birthday unending in hope that I can hide from my pain and anger until I learn not to hide from myself anymore, and never again to let others carry me through my choices. I bring words that I cannot say out loud, no gender to be seen, many languages to tell stories in, some pig blood and human tears, and a few bundles of rope. May I please come in?

OH, CHILD.

COME HERE.  WE MUST SPEAK TO YOU.

THERE ARE CHANCES WHICH COME AND CHANCES WHICH GO, CHOICES WHICH ARE RIGHT AND CHOICES WHICH ARE WRONG, BUT WE SAY THIS TO YOU, AND WE HOPE AND PRAY YOU WILL LISTEN, THAT YOU WILL BELIEVE, FOR WE MAY NEVER SAY ANYTHING THIS IMPORTANT AGAIN:

SO LONG AS YOU HERE, SO LONG AS YOU ARE DRAWING BREATH, THERE IS NO LAST CHANCE AT A BETTER LIFE.  EVERY DAY IS ANOTHER CHANCE, ANOTHER SERIES OF BEAUTIFUL OPPORTUNITIES, AND SOME OF THEM MAY PASS BY UNNOTICED, WHILE OTHERS CAN BE CAUGHT, AND HELD, AND NURTURED.  YOU ARE NOT DONE YET.  YOU ARE NOT LOST.  WHAT YOU DID NOT GAIN WILL BE BALANCED IN THE FUTURE YET TO COME, WHICH IS BIG, AND BEAUTIFUL, AND WILL GIVE YOU SO MANY MORE CHANCES.

SO MANY MORE.

HERE IS YOUR PLACE AT THE TABLE.  HERE IS YOUR CONICAL HAT.  HERE IS TIME, CHILD, TIME TO LEARN AND GROW AND UNDERSTAND, TIME TO FIND YOURSELF AND LOSE YOURSELF AND BECOME SOMEONE NEW, SOMEONE YOU HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE.  HERE IS TIME.  TREASURE IT.

WELCOME TO THE BIRTHDAY.  WELCOME TO THE BIRTHDAY.  WELCOME TO THE BIRTHDAY UNENDING.

Woo-hoo!

A Pride Month comic about quietly being proud to be queer 

I read Marine Biology when I first saw an ad for The Summage Solution.  I greatly enjoy the Parasol Protectorate series and many of its spin-off, but I wanted to try the shorter story before getting the full-length novel.  I tore through Marine Biology and eagerly went to buy The Summage Solution, only to realize that it hadn’t been released yet.[sniff]  In addition to the Delicate Sensibilities Warning, I would add that this series may be addictive.

Rejoice, Gail fans! Secret Project SAS is finally revealed!

The Sumage Solution is Miss Gail’s first self published novel and is continuation of Gail’s short story Marine Biology. It is first book in her San Andreas Shifters series and will drop July 18, 2017. Just in time for Comic Con! The Sumage Solution stands alone but if you want a taste of the Universe and understand why the pack moved to San Francisco, Marine Biology is a good way to find all that out.

Blurb:

Can a gentle werewolf heal the heart of a smart-mouthed mage? NYT bestseller Gail Carriger, writing as G. L. Carriger, presents an offbeat gay romance in which a sexy werewolf with a white knight complex meets a bad boy mage with an attitude problem. Sparks (and other things) fly. Max fails everything - magic, relationships, life. So he works for DURPS (the DMV for supernatural creatures) as a sumage, cleaning up other mages’ messes. The job sucks and he’s in no mood to cope with redneck biker werewolves. Unfortunately, there’s something oddly appealing about the huge, muscled Beta visiting his office for processing. Bryan AKA Biff (yeah, he knows) is gay but he’s not out. There’s a good chance Max might be reason enough to leave the closet, if he can only get the man to go on a date. Everyone knows werewolves hate mages, but Bryan is determined to prove everyone wrong, even the mage in question.

The Summage Solution 

is available for preorder for Kindle on Amazon, and links to preorders for pdf, mobi, epub, iBooks are available on Gail’s website.

Marine Biology

is also available RIGHT NOW for a whopping $0.99 USD on Amazon, and through a litany of other publishing ways ( pdf, mobi, epub, iBooks) through Gail’s website. Marine Biology was originally published in The Mammoth Book of Paranormal Romance 2, a collection of paranormal romance short stories.

DELICATE SENSIBILITIES WARNING!!!! 

This story contains M/M sexitimes and horrible puns. If you get offended easily, then you probably will. The San Andreas Shifter stories contain blue language, dirty deeds, and outright admiration for the San Francisco Bay Area. Not for the faint of heart (mouth/tongue/etc.).

I love octopodes, and this one is particularly stunning!

Entranced by this larger Pacific striped octopus? Us too. “Rediscovered” by our own Rich Ross & UC Berkeley’s Roy Caldwell in 2013 (which validated another scientist’s 22-year-old findings), its unusually social behaviors—including beak-to-beak mating—"fly in the face of nearly everything we know about cephalopods.“ Learn more: calacade.my/1N6WbRt. 📽️ by biologist Tim Wong

I was well over 20 when I *started* reading fan fiction.  One of my best friends finally convinced me to try it, and I’ve been addicted ever since.  I’ve been active in science-fiction/fantasy/gaming/furry and various other fandoms for decades.  I have seen everyone from infants to senior citizens having fun at conventions.  The idea that fandom could have a use-by date or age range is laughable.

Reblog if you’re over 20 and still read/write fan fiction.

I’m curious!

I want the books, but I also love that little dragon!

Asexuals In Fiction 4.0

Not only will this database tell you if there’s an asexual it also includes the following: Series name, character name, own voice authors, type of rep, genre, main character or minor, and if it includes other representation of some sort.

I laughed so hard I woke up the cat.  Now he’s staring at me, trying to decide whether he needs to be concerned about this.

I laughed a lot. (x)

I don’t really believe in the luck thing, but it’s a very cute kitty.

Some non-binary awareness pictures I made for a russian nb blog

Sometimes, this is the same cat.

There are two types of cats

Among others.

And every other sexuality

I love the expression on the one second from the top on the left: “Now that I control the household finances, there will be no more of that cheap cat food!”

Money Cats masterpost, to have your LIFE!! filled with money.

Pride astronauts! [swoon]
