I can’t stop looking at it

It won’t let me stop looking at it

Please

Yeah if my cat did that. I could never believe they weren’t sentient or inhabited by another entity again.

Not sure if "Steve, we need to talk" or "I've been watching you in your sleep."

[–] [email protected] 41 points 2 weeks ago

Where are my testicles, Steve?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

Probably both. Happy Halloween!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

The first thought that came to mind for me was, “hello susan. You’re right on time. Please, have a seat.”

Everybody check your trinkets and see which is glowing. We need an ID on this creature before initiative.

Uncanny valley effect in full

[–] [email protected] 35 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah I'm straight up dying from a heart attack if I woke up and saw that.

Are you sure that's not a furry? You might have accidentally adopted a furry.

that actually looks kind of weird

[–] [email protected] 30 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Looks like some kind of fae. Run.

This Terry Pratchett (GNU) quote pretty much explains it (he uses the term “(Discworld) elves”, but given that Lords and Ladies is clearly based on A Midsummer's Night Dream the quote equally applies to any kind of fae, and not necessarily, for instance, to Tolkien or DnD elves):

Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder.
Elves are marvellous. They cause marvels.
Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies.
Elves are glamorous. They project glamour.
Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment.
Elves are terrific. They beget terror.

The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.

No one ever said elves are nice. Elves are bad.

Terry Pratchett was one of a kind.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 weeks ago

either this is the start of an anime, and the sidekick is waiting for you to wake up....

... or you gunna die.

given it's halloween....

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago

Nah this is fucked.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 weeks ago

Sitting weirdly*

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

"I was waiting for you"

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 weeks ago

"what's wrong babe? Your not in the mood ?

  • it's not that... it's the cat...
  • c'mon, he just a pet, he doesn't understand what we're doing.
  • 😺: don't mind me, I'm just sitting here."
[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago

There's nothing pretty about this. This is straight up nightmare fuel.

Happy Halloween, I guess.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Someone edit the cats shadow to look like a demon or something

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

Literally perfect

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

We need a community for cats sitting weird

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

You should create one. The problem is finding content to fill it

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

Your cat seems to be malfunctioning.

Make it stop

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

run for your life and don't look back

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

As the resident cat furry I kind of have to like this

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

God...if I was half that magnificent my life would have been way easier.....

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

I think this is the best post I've seen on Lemmy

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

So I get 10 years of wealth before you harvest my soul? Just sign on the dotted line? Is this ink made from blood?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Your cat needs servicing man

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Cat looks like it’s settling in to have a serious conversation with you about the catnip it found in a shoebox hidden in your closet.
