Went to an antique expo today and found more evidence that cats love to smoke. Postcard from my collection, mailed 1903.
Postcard showing a shorthaired tabby cat, and a shorthaired, white and tabby cat in the center of the card, face-to-face. Both of them have cigarettes or cigarillos, and one of them is lighting theirs from the lit end of the other. The background is a vibrant, cherry red, and there is a shorthaired tabby cat with a parasol walking past in the background.

An ancient Greek silver coin depicting a bee! 🐝 😍

Minted in Ephesus, 390-380 BC.

Photo Getty Museum

#Archaeology
A Getty Museum photo showing a silver tetradrachm (four-drachma coin) stamped in high relief on the obverse of the coin with a bee viewed from above, within a dotted border. It is dark grey silver against a lighter grey background. Relief details include legs, wings, antennae, segmented abdomen and sting. The Greek letters, Ε (‘epsilon’) and Φ (‘phi’), an abbreviation for ‘Ephesus’, are placed either side of the bee. Diameter 7 mm. From the museum catalogue: “The reverse shows the foreparts of a stag kneeling in right profile, looking back towards a palm tree. An inscription to the right reads ΚΑΡΝΩ[Ψ] (‘KARNO[PS]’). The bee, stag, and palm are all emblems of Ephesus, a Greek city on the west coast of Turkey. This city was an important center of worship for the Greek goddess Artemis, and the images on Ephesian coinage typically promote this association. The bee was originally the symbol of an early Anatolian goddess who the Greeks later identified with their goddess, Artemis; so close was the connection that the priestesses of the goddess were called "honey bees." The two Greek letters, Ε (‘epsilon’) and Φ (‘phi’), are an abbreviation for Ephesus. The palm tree alludes to Artemis' birth beneath a palm tree on the island of Delos. The stag – an animal sacred to Artemis – symbolizes the goddess' role as protector of wild animals, and may also refer to the sculptures that flanked her cult statue in the temple at Ephesus”

a tiny ceramic kitty for your thoughts? :3
A hand holding a small ceramic cat sculpture. The cat is in a sitting position facing the viewer and is a light denim blue color. It looks like it has a little smile on its face. In the background is a wooden table covered in paint marks.

Here, I know how much you guys love carpeted toilet accessories. Photo from my collection, 1966.
Photo of a medium haired, white and light ginger kitten lying on top of a toilet lid. The toilet lid is covered in a very light teal carpeted cover. There is a somewhat matching mat on the floor. There is also pink toilet paper hanging in the background.

in case you've never seen it, this is Roger Ebert on The Mummy
There is within me an unslaked hunger for preposterous adventure movies. I resist the bad ones, but when a "Congo" or an "Anaconda" comes along, my heart leaps up and I cave in. "The Mummy" is a movie like that. There is hardly a thing I can say in its favor, except that I was cheered by nearly every minute of it. I cannot argue for the script, the direction, the acting or even the mummy, but I can say that I was not bored and sometimes I was unreasonably pleased. There is a little immaturity stuck away in the crannies of even the most judicious of us, and we should treasure it.

Please call the Senate they will vote very soon on whether to allow dangerous sulfide-ore copper mining on the edges of Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Tell them to vote NO on House Joint Resolution 140 (H.J. Res. 140).

"ICE guys are pretty miserable. I don’t think morale is particularly high for them. They’re freezing, they’re getting shouted at. They can’t go anywhere without being tailed by 5 cars. They get out and immediately there's a crowd of 100 people shouting at them, blowing whistles as loud as they can."

The regime is terrified, Trump ordered DHS to “under no circumstances” get involved with protests in Democratic-led cities.

The announcement is a day after millions of protesters took to the streets with many vowing to fight the regime & ICE. #3E #GoodvsEvil #NationalStrike

It makes me so happy to see the level of thought put into the costuming in the #Fallout series. Like…seeing materials that are so carefully weathered and distressed in a show like this fills me with such unadulterated nerdy joy.
