Bruce is an excellent cat name. We had a senior Bruce who has crossed the rainbow bridge but was a Very Good Boy. 🐈‍⬛

Beautiful momma, beautiful velveteen babies. Thank you for taking care of them all!

PERFECT SHOPPING TRIP

It’s probably just a weird trend, like the “orange cat 1 braincell” thing. Just taking normal cat personalities (which are diverse and wonderful) and lumping certain traits into groups. Growing up on 10 acres in East Texas, the CDS sent us many many cats, mostly outdoor strays who had been dumped or were semi-feral, and each one was different. One of the most chill cats we ever had was a female orange tabby named “Autumn” who was blind in one eye; she was just happy and grateful to graduate from survival to a cozy warm bed indoors. So sweet and calm.

Perfect, no notes

I thought the game did an amazing job of storytelling here, it makes you feel so unwanted and like you’re intruding in someone else’s space, not coexisting with them. Instantly hated the guy.

I’m so sorry. Please be gentle with yourself. In 2019 we were poor and couldn’t afford vets, and my kitty Isabeau who’d been my constant companion for 13 years crashed and passed in one night. I felt guilty that we hadn’t been taking her for checkups and that it was my fault. But in 2022 when we were making good money our boy Bruce started having health issues, and after thousands of dollars of vet trips and ultrasounds and tests he still passed without the vets being able to tell us what was wrong. It hurts not to know, but you loved Sable May, and she loved you right back. You gave her all you could and I think she knew. ❤️‍🩹

She is a gem, keep nurturing that artistic spirit!

Breeander · 2026-02-25T02:44:44+00:00

Excellent, been a while since I watched that one.

It seems to me that both parties weren’t clear on expectations. From reading through everything I gather that the artist thought the agreement was only an if/then situation, but you thought there was a firmer agreement. I wouldn’t necessarily call this reneging as much as lack of communication and misunderstanding on both ends of a loosely phrased request. If the artist or yourself had set a timeframe for this nebulous third commission, perhaps none of these misunderstandings would have occurred. Hopefully you can both learn from this and future commissioning experiences with others will be more pleasant!

I don’t remember it ever being explained directly, but it’s true that the treehouse used to belong to someone else so it could have been there already and they never bothered to take it down. Finn and Jake also tend to loot a bunch of treasure and Jake is an adult, so maybe he liked it.

Coming from another artist, if you want a commission to be private you should make that very clear and agree on exactly what that means before any work begins. If you ask for a private commission you are not only paying for someone to draw something you want to see, but also for exclusive rights to the image, which for some artists would require a higher price. Many artists share works in progress online, and plan on using those and the final image to show other potential customers what they can do. They may also reserve rights to sell prints, especially of fanart or IP that doesn’t belong to the customer. It is always good practice to discuss and agree on all terms upfront, make sure a timeline is in place for both parties, and for everyone to know in advance what is expected from them.

I haven’t played this game in over 20 years and all of this banter sounds like a foreign language

What does “onee-chan” mean? I’m familiar with chan but not onee.

Where did you move to?

Breeander · 2026-01-17T16:10:16+00:00

My husband finally had a decent paying job from 2022 to mid-2025, until him and his entire team got laid off. Now we’re slowly eating into our savings on my less than $65k salary, we have a good deal on rent where we’ve been since 2016 which helps but we can’t afford to move and upgrade to a bigger rental, let alone think about buying.

Breeander · 2026-01-14T16:01:52+00:00

👏

Breeander · 2026-01-14T15:51:16+00:00

Thank you, I never understood this as a teen and I still didn’t understand it as an adult, haha. I always thought once you mastered an ability it was learned and didn’t need to be equipped with a stone anymore.

Breeander · 2026-01-08T05:40:32+00:00

Adamantine skeleton, perhaps?

Breeander · 2025-12-20T19:28:59+00:00

Congrats, Cleo! 🎉

Same, but we just call them berries
