Ronnie loves laundry, so I overstuffed the bottom drawer for him
a calm, peaceful moment with Ricky getting his ears rubbed
going for a color theme with my top artists this week
It's July, I'm in the northern hemisphere, let's get summery!
I asked both of my decks to sum themselves up with a single card
I asked what to expect in the next few weeks...
Paprika. I can expect a lot of Paprika time. She says so.
As for what my deck (Cat Tarot by Megan Lynn Kott) says in this rather basic five card draw:
Eight of Cups: I need to be decisive instead of dithering or trying to opt out of making choices.
The Empress: she's shown up in the second position twice in two days! Clearly some sort of fruitful abundance is on the way, although it could be anything from increased wisdom to a bounty of zucchini.
Seven of Swords reversed: the reward for getting rid of bad habits is having fewer bad habits. This is still very good!
The Fool: time spent out of my comfort zone with curiosity and an open mind will be beneficial.
Six of Pentacles: Also my single card draw earlier! I'm seeing a strong emphasis on abundance.
Any second opinions?
Ronnie reviews my album of the day
Hey, this is the perfect size for curling up into shrimp pose on... what do you mean it's not for naps? Look at that human on the cover, he's just sitting in a bed looking like he's thinking! I can do that!
​
*dial-up modem noises ensue while Ronnie attempts to think*
​
Oh, there's one of those big round things inside that humans put on the spinny thing and it makes noise. Okay. I make noise, too! MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW! Huh, human doesn't want to listen to me singing? Fine.
​
You know, this spinny thing noise isn't bad. I can definitely nap to this. Five purrs out of five.
It's Paprika's one year gotchaversary!
She was SO SMALL when I brought her home!
I'm all alone
First monthly report since I got Pro and... nah, no taste matches for me!
May 2026 album roundup
None of my ratings this month were below a 3! I'm pleased at how well my efforts to expand my tastes have been working.
Favorite album I'd heard before: White Blood Cells
Favorite album I discovered thanks to the generator: Lazer Guided Melodies
Albums that are also nostalgia triggers for me: White Blood Cells, Tuesday Night Music Club, Rage Against the Machine
Least favorite album of the month: Live at the Star Club, Hamburg
Least favorite I'd heard before: does this really count if it's still a fairly high 4? It's been a hell of a good month. Anyway: Selected Ambient Works 85-92
Funniest coincidence: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and We're Only In It For The Money three days apart
Is there anything better than earning this kind of trust from an animal?
Paprika shows me her secret white fur and I just melt. How is it that she's so perfect and yet she loves ME like this?
weekly 5x5 chart, now with a couple of risqué covers and some swears
I know I sometimes check this sub at work, so I'm being polite and using the NSFW filter in case anyone else is doing the same thing
looks like I hit 60k last night without noticing... celebrated by finally getting Pro!
60,000th scrobble: Saturday by A Giant Dog
How am I supposed to get out of bed when there's this torbie shrimp here?
Favorite I'd listened to before: A Wizard / A True Star
Favorite new discovery: Eternally Yours
Least favorite I'd heard before: (What's The Story) Morning Glory (it's three stars though, pretty good month)
Least favorite new discovery/that one harrowing white-knuckle listening experience/lone one star of the month: Justified
The one I still haven't listened to because it's not on Deezer and YouTube is annoying: Bongo Rock
