I liked this one too!

@Eliot_L @llewelly

OMG.

@spiegelmama @MCDuncanLab @nova

She has such a happy face.

@MCDuncanLab @nova

I don't know about nova, but Pica's mother was a Bronx deli cat who lived down the block from us and kept having kittens until the neighborhood saved up to get her spayed.

Pica was the smallest of a litter of 6. Every cat in that litter was a different color.

@MCDuncanLab

I think @nova (Luna) is smaller than Pica. We have a lot of smol ones around here.

@MCDuncanLab

It's "pica" like the unit.

There is nothing strange about a plush ant. Many ants are very fuzzy.

@SistaWendy

OK but those are monsters. I'm talking about Monsters, the fantastic majestic kind worthy of awe. Not the same kind of monster.

I don't think people make monster stories because they want to be scared as much as because they want to be amazed.

Jeff Bezos isn't very amazing.

@lffontenelle

"There will be monsters... somewhere."

@josh0

She always does.

@kellyromanych

The geometry of the universe is mysterious? Or I'm tired.

#picaTheCat and a stuffed ant plush are almost the same color and size. #catsofmastodon

Also speaking of cryptids? I am certain I've seen this thing in the east river.

I'm a cat! (is-a.cat)

It's also notable that the Angels and Ghosts people want NOTHING to do with the Bigfoot and Aliens crowd.

Can't cross those streams. Hilariously each camp will talk about the other with a kind of eye rolling.

You saw Bigfoot and you are rolling your eyes about a ghost? REALLY?

This thing where the Bigfoot people and the Aliens people have teamed up and decided they are all a part of one "phenomenon" (this is true, just not for the reasons they think...*)

Well it's kind of fascinating, because these were, I thought, very different myths with very different kinds of purposes.

I guess it's a kind of "big tent" ?

* There must always be monsters and folklore. If there isn't any, new ones will arise.

@waitworry

AHHH

Another creepy, nostalgic short video form #gakhed.

A black and white cat covered in big colorful Christmas bulbs posing in the snow relaxed. Christmas decorations of a suburban but rather rural neighborhood. A huge Christmas tree covered in pink and blue lights, Santa, Frosty, Michael Myers? (left over from Halloween I think) the ducks and goats of the farm at night. A municipal "winter wonderland" one might find in a small town.

Someone tried to impress me by showing me the Great Potoo, but having been exposed to #PicaTheCat I'm not that impressed:

* Huge goofy eyes?
* Convincing wood-grain texture?
* Absurdly large mouth that opens out of nowhere like a Muppet?
* Haunting eerie noise at night?
* Eating bugs just because they are there?

Maybe I should call her "Potoo The Cat"

@Okanogen @Extra_Special_Carbon

It's a question worth answering in multiple ways.

@geonz @Extra_Special_Carbon

* Only interested in "hard" questions.
* But, if it's a hard question they can't answer, well then you must have meant something else or asked it wrong.

Kind of makes the range of acceptable topics ludicrously narrow.

I thought maybe we could just, you know, talk about math.
