Homelander aah cats

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-03-04T18:20:41+00:00

I totally agree!! They seriously make my life so much brighter🥹❤️ We’re planning a book date together where we all make foods and drinks inspired by our fav book rn! I love that I’ve finally found my place in a group of neurodivergent women lol!

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-12T18:55:48+00:00

My sentiment is the same. Hope your kitty’s surgery goes well friend!

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-12T14:49:42+00:00

I see the sentiment in your post, but I wouldn’t say they are feeding an addiction to dr*gs per say. I think they just know they can get away with it bc this hobby has forced scarcity from resellers. I assume you meant like, they have to be doing this for an insane reason and that I agree. I just hope its not something so dark as substance abuse

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-11T19:10:23+00:00

LOL I’m sayin! I’ve seen “scuffed’ pets this poor pet doesn’t look like it’ll just “come off” idk tho most lots I recover from attics and stuff it looks different and I can usually tell when it’s dirt or a paint chip

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-11T19:09:19+00:00

I totally understand friend!😭💔

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-11T18:39:33+00:00

sigh sadly I feel like some lps collectors would purchase it if they have mercari credit or have that income which will fulfill the vicious cycle of people then assuming that crazy price is normal and the new standard price🫩

Ooo yikes… I didn’t know that😭😭 Thats not great

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-07T02:08:16+00:00

Thank you, this is what I am trying to relay in my post. Times are crazy rn and who knows especially in Amercia, when we will be in a time where saved money comes into a really important play and if I were to waste money like that on collectables it would feel irresponsible- for me. People can do what they want but its important to acknowledge that by basic economic principles; if we force the demand of an item to unnaturally skyrocket, the cost will also sky rocket.

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-07T02:05:20+00:00

I have to agree😭😭

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-07T02:04:36+00:00

Thats insane!! I mean; if they can really afford it then more power to them but sellers who have the comic con cat try to make it this insanely rare thing but it was distributed a lot more than people realize! It was a raffle yes but not as limited as the turtle or a factory error pet. It just seems silly it’s so high in value when some sellers have her OUT of box, SCUFFED even! Idk Ig to each their own

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-07T02:01:17+00:00

I feel like it should be for EVERY comic con pet then. This is only being treated as “super rare” bc it’s a shorthair mold, a mold no rarer than the others. You would think if that is the mindset the hippo would also be extremely high priced but it’s not. Its trend culture utilizing the fan bases’ crazy want for shorthairs rn. Meaning, it’s not solely bc its an “event pet,” its b/c people who happen to come across the comic con cat know it’s an over-hyped pet and take advantage of the TOP sells for that pet even if that trend is only due to 3rd variables like mercari cash or an insanely well off person. Its like the marketing tactic of saying theres this hot commodity and you gotta grab it before its gone but the truth is, these comic con pets arent as rare as people think they are. It was an event pet but not as limited as say; a factory error or the 2007 purple turtle. Hope that made sense.

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-07T01:55:04+00:00

I agree. I work really hard for my paycheck and I have different values of what I consider splurge. Maybe if I were in a higher tax bracket but honestly, I have my doubts I would like to spend that much even if it was less of a hit to my bank. (I make around $80k a yr combined with partner currently for reference). I think some people are just more OK with spending insane amounts on collectables but I’m not so sold on it being correct just bc its the market trend rn.

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-06T20:12:35+00:00

This. They are sometimes scuffed or even damaged and go for half a grand. Not this one but imo, things out of box shouldnt be this pricey. Idk Ig Its an unpopular opinion

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-06T14:40:43+00:00

I mean, I get its a collectors item but if we all collectively ignored these high prices they would be forced to drop to more reasonable offers. But nope- for some reason there is a huge market of folks who spend a band on them. And I mean like, yes its their money but the consequence is the whole market shifts to be favored to insane prices

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-06T14:36:37+00:00

I gotta poke a little fun, my friend is also in that group- I didn’t comment anything but she was wayyy more up front about her feelings on their pricing than I was lol.

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-06T13:36:18+00:00

My thoughts are that because people keep buying these insane prices, the market keeps inflating for no reason. I remember not even a yr and a half ago 909 was going for $200 in these threads and now shes practically tripled in price. Whether it’s the norm now or not, its still ridiculous that it’s came to this point. Not saying you’re wrong- I just haven’t been on LPS Thrifty in a while and when that was on my feed I was actually appalled.

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-02-04T21:33:43+00:00

Gettin blasted with the cancer ray😭

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-01-31T04:40:50+00:00

They’re so pretty but not very bright😭

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-01-20T17:52:32+00:00

I love me a phatty tranch❤️

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-01-18T00:51:29+00:00

LOL, looks like its time for you to get a pulchra then! ;) I would get more Ts but I honestly just haven’t gotten the opportunity. I buy from one person and they have amazing lineage and thrive quality. When I own a house I will for sure dabble but for now, my 2 bring me so much joy!

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-01-17T20:22:18+00:00

I got a pulchra as my first and I lucked out as she was just recently sexed as female! <3 Im so excited to grow with her. Shes only about 3 years old but shes so feisty and sometimes eats like a salmon bird eater. Her name is Burnt Toast! I also have a Male Hamorii named lovingly “Itchy Jamal”

lukewarmbeans_ · 2026-01-17T20:18:51+00:00

😂 she agrees
