Fuck it, here's another toebeans pic, since Sando is so obliging

Sleek black cat standing on the top of a mesh metal shelf, looking down towards the camera You can see his toes through the shelf. I have lighting set up under the shelves to illuminate said toes. With the angle his head looks big and his eyes are wide, and this all looks very silly

My fluffy black cat Spiegel perched in the middle of an artificial Christmas tree. Its lights are on and he's looking sort of past the camera, at nothing, because he is very dumb.

Did I just screen-record from a YouTube livestream to capture a zebra farting? Maybe.

I'd like to sleep but Spiegel thinks I need to cuddle his butt

Selfie of my face and shoulders as I'm lying in bed. A fluffy cat backside is lying on my chest and neck and the tail is curled around the side of my head. I'm looking to the side to avoid eye contact for people who don't care for that. The lighting is red because that's apparently a better colour if you have a migraine tendency

One TikTok that amused me this weekend: a guy was making some point about how AI deskills people, and compares it to calculators. He makes a statement like "are kids today worse at math [arithmetic] compared to kids from 20, 30, 40 years ago? Yes, because they have calculators now".

There were cheap consumer calculators 40 years ago my young dude. Presumably even earlier than that; I still have my Little Professor toy calculator (1976) though it quizzes you in arithmetic rather than solve anything.

My grandparents had a TV in 1953. My first school had a computer lab in 1983. Comsumer electronics didn't jump into existence in the 2000s, they just got blander.

(I don't even remember if this guy's argument about AI even held up, I got distracted by his being wrong on this one point.)

(Also I have always been terrible at arithmetic even though I did 2 years of calculus and various algebras and whatever in uni.)

@IanAMartin@mstdn.ca someday I should bake something in the oven just to see if Spiegel still wants to jump inside it

I realized a few minutes later that Spiegel had started posing after I took the first photo. Sando of course is all business. #caturday

2 black cats on a windowsill, photographed so that the sill starts at the bottom left and ends at the middle right. The fluffy black cat is lying on his side, facing away from the window with his front paws curled, in the foreground. The sleek cat is in the background half-sitting, body pointed away from the camera. Both cats face the camera. A blackout curtain envelops them on the other side
