This is a Winter Solstice comic I originally drew for the queer tarot comic anthology, Tabula Idem, almost two years ago! I still celebrate this ritual with my family every year. Happy Solstice!

[image description: An elegant black cat with a long tail sits in profile on a block of black marble, blocking the view of Assless Chaps behind them. Text reads, “55, Obsidious ~ The Small God of Occluding Cats”] ____________________________________________________________
The cat is in the way.
This is a basic fact of the universe, simple and immutable. The sun is shining, the wind is blowing, the cat is in the way. The world is spinning, the atomic structure of the universe is decaying, the cat is the way. The faithful pray, the apostate condemn, and the cat is in the way.
How is the cat always, inevitably, unavoidably, in the way? When did we get a cat, anyway? How did that cat get in here? Hey, is anyone willing to take responsibility for this cat? Can someone tell me whose cat this is?
No.
No, no one can tell you whose cat this is. No, no one is going to take responsibility for that cat. No, no one let the cat in, and the cat is in the way because it is the nature of cats to be in the way. If the cat were not in the way, something much more terrible than the cat might rise in its absence. The cat occupies space to ensure that the space is occupied, because the space will be occupied, whether it is by the cat or by something far more terrible. The cat is doing you a favor. Do not count the cat’s eyes. The cat’s eyes are none of your concern. The cat can see you. Isn’t that enough?
Isn’t it enough that the cat is being generous enough to protect you from the terrible thing that would be looking at you with some uncounted number of eyes if the cat were not there? Isn’t it enough that the cat is soft, and the cat is purring, and the cat is in the way?
Isn’t it enough?
Let it be enough.
The cat loves you. The cat will love you even into the void. The cat will forgive you for your frailties, and the cat is in the way.
The cat is always in the way.

Artist Lee Moyer (Trident of Aurelia, 13th Age) and author Seanan McGuire (Wayward Children, October Daye & InCryptid series) sincerely appreciate you, but wonder if you could scoot just the tiniest little bit to the left?
Klingons are integrating new words for the cat slow-blink into Klingon. They have specific words for a when a Klingon/cat exchange a slow-blink and a different word for when a parent/child exchanges a slow-blink.
My kitten tried to kill my stuffed tribble. My roommate remarked that my tribble killing cat would make a great Klingon pet… and she’s right.
Imagine a Klingon ship having a cat that protects them from tribbles & vermin. They have to get the cat from a shelter run by humans and they’re like “This is the honorable Mr. Chonks”.
“Yes, our ship also has an earth feline. Her name is Carrot and she fights like a warrior.”
There’s absolutely a Klingon out there who lost an eye to a feral cat that he then adopted.
Klingons who go “pspspspsps” to get the Ship Cat to come hang out during break.
Orange Ship Cat that gets lost in the jeffires tubes and Klingon whose sole job is to go fetch the orange cat. He acts like he hates his job but he actually really adores his feline co-worker so much.
Klingon that always hands things to the Ship Cat so it can sniff it.
Klingon that intentionally grabs boxes to enrich Ship Cat’s little life. Sometimes they get multiple boxes and the crew bets on which box will be deemed “best box” by their fluffy little warrior.
Klingon that starts his work shift saying “Qapla’!” to Ship Cat who meows in return.
Newly Minted Ship Kitten climbing up to a Klingon Captain’s shoulder with her tiny needle claws while said Captain is attempting to be intimidating on the viewscreen.
Klingon who gets a head bunt from Ship Cat and gives it a head bunt back.
Reblogging so I can find this recipe again when it’s time to bake
Cis / Trans / NB , and for the kids who don’t have the words yet to talk about their gender I want you to wear whatever suits you best. I want you to be happy and loved for who you are. I am so happy that this man has been healing himself. It’s never too late. 💝💖🤟
The nostalgia for the present.
The longing for a time that ended just as you learned to love it 💝
The reality that you can’t remember the exact day that something beloved ended.

“X bodily fluid is just filtered blood!” buddy I hate to break it to you but ALL of the fluids in your body are filtered blood. Your circulatory system is how water gets around your body. It all comes out of the blood (or lymph, which is just filtered blood).
King of Cups. Art by Megan Rose Gedris, from The Rosalarian Tarot.
My king of cups is taking an active parenting role. He is so strong, and the master of the rough elements around him. He can protect because he knows what he’s doing and knows he won’t get hurt by it. He aligns the heart with the head, emotions with knowledge, and that makes him strong.
So many “fatherly” images fail to show the so-called father with any children, so I wanted to make a point to show that. I didn’t want him to be a hands-off authoritarian figure. In this, he’s rubbing whiskey on a teething baby’s gums. The lightning bolts symbolize how dads love Led Zeppelin.
I'm glad to know this art exists
You know how in the ancient world they believed a very long time ago there was the age of heroes when the world was populated by super powered descendants of the gods. Chickens have that in real life but it’s the dinosaurs
Welp, 2nd year this has shown up on my feed, so's time to pass it along
Spiral power!
Sorry I’m late I was obsessing over herb spirals

The chronicle of the monk Herbert of Reichenau for the year 1021 ends “My brother Werner was born on November 1.“
1021 was not an uneventful year. The emperor began a campaign into Italy. Illustrious abbots died. There was an earthquake. But Herbert took the time to note, at the end of the year, that his brother was born.
Of such acts of tenderness is history made.
Girl Scout Cookie Time!
You can buy cookies online from any troop with a page set up. People bought so many cookies from troop 6000 (who is based out of a homeless shelter in NYC) that is broke the counter on the website.
Here’s six troops from high poverty areas that may struggle to reach their goals. Individual troops list on their page what they’re doing with funds. for many of these its simple things like badges or craft supplies. Get yourself some cookies.
troop 168 Sabra Grande, Puerto Rico
Troop 3559 Chinlee, Az (Navajo nation)
Troop 31897 Meadow Bridge, West Virginia
Troop 70115 Rena Lara, Mississippi
Troop9626 Kykotsmovi Village, AZ -Hopi Nation
Troop 30349 Darien, GA
You can also just donate cookies on there and they’ll be distributed to the local community. (I work at food pantry here and clients are always excited to see cookies on the shelves)
You can look up your local troop by zip code on https://www.girlscouts.org/ If they’re similarly struggling to raise funds, reblog and add ‘em on to the chain.
