Tuesday Evening

End of the month - and what a month it's been. If January has been any indication, 2023 is not looking to be too superduper. And Tuesday, as we know, is ... Tuesday.

Snow falling!

I can see it

 Good morning, everyone. It’s cold and icy outside for a lot of us, so I hope you get to stay home and warm and dry today. If not, I hope for safe and easy travels as you go about your day.

Sunday evening OT

 


We're a full week into the Year of the Rabbit, but so far not trending towards peaceful as promised. The only way to hop is upwards one hopes.

The Photo Gallery


 It’s your weekly Photo Gallery! Come on in, take a look at what people have been up to over the past week and share some of your own photos.

They don’t need to be taken with a fancy camera or works of art. Share any SFW photos you’ve taken with even the poorest of potatoes. Of course we love to see that arty stuff too.

Good morning

 



I hope you all have a peaceful and relaxing Sunday today.

Fur Face Friday

 Welcome to Fur Face Friday!  January is coming to a close. How is everyone doing with those resolutions? Last week's fur faces were cheerful, this week they are determined. Sylvie is trying very hard to stay on her diet but 415s30 doesn't make it easy.

It's that time of the week to let go and fuss about what's bugging or angering you, or even if something in your space just seems a little off.

Honestly it feels more like an episode of the Office most days.  Eh, beggars can’t be choosers.

Fur Face Friday

Hey howdy and welcome to Fur Face Friday, where we recover from whatever the week has thrown at us with a healthy dose of cute endorphins. Last week, we were blessed with the good luck of cute, and aminals finding their happy places.

Kiltedpadre’s Cornbread is just a happy (quasi-)lappy doggo and not afraid to show it.

 

Photobombing 101 classes signing up now!

In case you're new here, favorites are chosen by one of the Snout Selectors (facw, k2b, Hannibal, leahaven, and myopicprophet), entirely on our own whimsy. WHIMSY! However, in the interest of solidarity, we try to select one dog picture and one cat picture (minimum!) each week. Other pets will also, of course, be considered. We love all your rats, bunnies, ferrets, and other furry, feathery, and finny pals. WE WILL NEVER DISCRIMINATE AGAINST CUTE.

Thursday evening open thread


 

Nice beaver! I've had beaver lodges on my property at the cottage, and you can hear the babies and the adults calling to each other. One day I was walking along the shore and heard a rustling in the bushes behind me, turned around, and there was a baby beaver. It ran past me and into the water and the little tail, about the size of my hand, gave a tiny "warning! danger!" slap on the water.

Halfway through the week for most of us! How ya doin'?

Good morning?

 The wet has left us and now the cold has returned, it seems. How are things with y'all?

Tail end of Tuesday. Whose day was exhausting? Or perhaps dare I ask ... enjoyable?

The winds howl in rage

With no leaves to blow.

Sunday Evening Ohtee

 

This seems like something that should be brought to everyone's attention. US Army Corps of Engineers Cat Calendar

I have high blood pressure right now beacuse this month's Doc Soup film series is Battleground, a documentary about anti- abortion activists' strategies. It's a well-done doc, but I found it hard to watch until after seeing the Q&A with the filmmaker, Cynthia Lowen, where she talks about how the organizations involved (especially Students for Life, I thought) co-opt other movements, or use misinformation, to have clout beyond their relatively small numbers.  Battlegroundfilm.org

I will do some dry reading for my course about math assessment to bring my blood pressure down. 🧮

The cat calendar should help too!

Fur Face Friday

Hello and Welcome to Fur Face Friday the thirteenth. Some might think today brings bad luck, but in reality it brings adorable fur friends to our attention - which is anything but bad! There was some top notch adorableness in last week's comments.

While many people consider Friday the 13th bad luck, the owners of the Friday the 13th franchise and members of the Thirteen Club, not so much.
