Lorre's Cat Café: Pig
New customers wonder how such a cute little ball of fuzz could be named Pig. They find out quickly enough.
This little creep has absolutely no regard for personal space, personal time, or personal property. He sticks his face in others' food, and eats out of the garbage. He sits and stares at humans and cats alike, follows them to the toilet or litter box, and watches them poop. Even Gogol is creeped out by him.

Does anyone have an image of Lorre from the movie Strange Cargo where he's staring at Joan Crawford's character through the window. I need it for scientific purposes.

It’s obviously one of those mugs that’s supposed to say “cunt” but with the handle representing the “c” except the text was printed on the wrong side so now it’s just a mug that says “unt” and that’s why it was in the clearance section for $2 and i wouldn’t have it any other way. i love my “unt” mug

Images of despair [stellaris version]
#when you're fighting the scourge and making 700+ alloys a month but you NEED MORE#genuinely so glad I invested into a dyson sphere early on to suck the market 100% dry of alloys#pumping out ships because my life depends on it#just imagine. you're a space trader and you heard there's some invasion of bugs somewhere in the galaxy#then the strongest military you've ever seen rolls up and offers you 'any price you name' for spare metal on your ship#you laugh and say '600 energy credits and I'll give you four metal pipes!'#the military says 'deal' and immediately deposits 900 energy credits [the market price of alloys is already increasing]#anyway I'm now sitting here with a military over five times larger than my naval cap#and over four times the population I had before the war#reason: people evacuated the planets the scourge bombed#thousands of pops have settled straight into my empire even in the most dire planets#every square inch of living space is now taken up and every single job is full#every single planet has unemployment [i have an overabundance of consumer goods so I'm just giving them all free stuff]#oh and since I'm gearing the economy now towards 'well. they gotta work SOMEWHERE' [building as many commercial districts as possible]#I am spending hundreds of special resources I do not produce to keep massive company complexes running#imagine this: strange otherworldly beasts are running down your homeworld#you escape into space in a small cargo ship stuffed with people#it's barely enough to be considered a transport but it gets you far enough away to feel safe#as you are running you see the largest collection of ships in your life warp into the system#they unleash hellfire on the aliens and then neuron sweep the planet [the very ground of which got infected]#you shed a tear and look away from the window#three days later you're told you've arrived#you touch down in an extremely busy landing area#there are hundreds of thousands of people everywhere. the mood is joyous#there are screens set up in the square broadcasting the eradication of the aliens#you see people in the crowd you've never seen before. people speak in tongues you've never heard#a guide calls over to you and all the other new arrivals#apparently you weren't the first to run. you won't be the last either#this planet has more than quintoupled its population and is still recieving many people every day#luckily the government has declared they are going to be constructing massive projects to introduce new jobs

ST Voyager: Repression - Horror Movie Vibes
#The vibes are immaculate#st voyager#screenshot extravaganza#the framing device of the horror movie at the beginning of the episode...B'Elanna and Tom seeing that body from behind and like - getting#closer only to discover he's dea- in a coma v_v#the fact that Tuvok is acting strange...having hunches...seems unsettled...#the fact that slowly but surely all the clues are pointing towards him#'It's possible whoever did this is still on board' while Tuvok stands in the background#That moment when Chell is alone and your heart starts racing bc WHERE'S B'ELANNA!!!!??#the cargo bay seeming empty but the computer confirming that B'Elanna's somewhere within it...#Tuvok looking down at the bruise on his side and realizing what happened...Teero appearingin the mirror!!!#THE FACT THAT TEERO USED HIS SON'S MESSAGE TO GET HIM....AGH.#and this is just the horror vibes - not even mentioning the trauma angle...my favorite voyager ep for real.#Voyager should have leaned into horror more it fits them SO well#Voyager lends itself extra well to horror bc of the 'no service' element#by which I mean like...in horror movies when your cellphone's dead or the killer cut the line - they have no means of contacting anyone#else to help them .... !!!!#star trek#episode scrapbook

i hope you know i read your writing like. LITERAL MONTHS AGO. and i still think abt it sm. you have forever fueled the fire of tim drake love in my heart and i thank you so much 4 that my god ur writing has changed me and i still think abt certain quotes from it. ty for sharing ur art bro
A pool of salt. Warm. World blurry. Not a Lazarus Pit. The author lies face down in a pool of their own tears, buoyed upwards by the kindness of a stranger.
Full disclosure, I read this at 2:30 am when I turned my phone on to grope my way to the bathroom and dismissed this message as a witching hour hallucination. I am honored it is not. Glad I'm eating microwaved can soup cause I'm gonna need all that sodium back.
#tim drake#batman fanfiction#sorry do you all understand you're helping me live my dream#it's so strange to think about that people I don't know and may never meet read something I wrote and enjoyed it#like I'm just a human at a Thai bar thinking about Rolls-Royces and dry bulk cargo#it's an honor to share my weird trivia knowledge with you in the form of batman fanfic
