Just stumbled upon this shot of our late, beloved cat Boomer, taken during our summer in Oklahoma City back in 1989. He definitely played rough, but never drew blood. He was just sixteen pounds of pure goofball. #CatsOfMastodon #Blep

Tuxedo cat in the middle of play time, lying on his back, arms ready to swat us, and on the left one can see my spouse’s hand as she pushes on Boomer’s right foot. The bit of tongue sticking out really detracts from the wide-eyed game face he was putting on.

It took Lucy a long time to start really trusting us, and now this is one of her favorite places to nap—and I am 100% here for it! #CatsOfMastodon

Close shot of me sitting on my couch with my left arm on the armrest, and our cat Lucy curled up in the crook of my arm, fast asleep.

At my in-laws’ house getting started on the long process of clearing it out. Found this gem from 1998 being used as a monitor stand. It’s about 2.5” (65mm) thick and holds *dozens* of literal bookmarks. #Relic #SoDusty

Front cover of “World Wide Web Internet Yellow Pages, Seventh Edition”.
Side view to give some sense of scale to just how thick the book is.
Dozens of bookmarks visible along the top edge.

@CaptainFlab Given the self-destruction of search engines, maybe it's time for a printed Internet Yellow Pages comeback. Perhaps with QR codes?

On a small scale, you could make 3-ring binders with local websites and put them in public spaces like coffee shops, so you can easily add or remove pages as websites come and go.

I have a few Wyze cameras sprinkled around the house to keep tabs on our cat, Lucy. Right now she’s on one of her favorite perches: writing desk in the second floor. #CaturdayPlusOne #CatsOfMastodon

I was about to do stuff at my computer, but apparently Lucy needs the chair more than I do right now. #CatsOfMastodon

Cat curled up into a tight ball, asleep on my desk chair.
