PWB Theme Thursday: Sometimes things are not as they appear [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2024-02-15 Hi all! I apologize — this is a bit of a half and half diary! I’ve had some memes kicking around for a while, but not enough of them to make a full, one-topic diary. So we’re mixing and matching a bit today, but don’t worry! It’ll all make sense in the end :-) But first… Welcome to PWB Theme Thursdays! If you’ve never visited or commented in a PWB (Pootie/Woozle/Birdie) diary before, come on in — the water is fine, and the folks are always friendly! A few quick guidelines: No trolling the diary. If you hate pootie diaries, leave now. No harm, no foul. Please do share pics of your fur kids! If you have health/behavior issues with your pets, feel free to bring it to the community. When it comes to problems, we may just have someone with experience who can help. So ask! Whatever happens in the outer blog STAYS in the outer blog. This is a place to relax and play; please treat it accordingly. There is no such thing as stealing a photo around here, but if you would like a pic from the comment threads, please ask the poster. He/she may have a copyright to those pics. Many thanks! ​There are some pics we never post: snakes, creepy crawlies, any and all photos that depict or encourage human cruelty toward animals. These are considered “out of bounds” and will not be tolerated. If you keep posting banned pics...well then...the Tigress will have to take matters in hand. Or, paw. Are you having one of those days? And it started out so promisingly... Aren’t we all? It’s really fun when it happens at night :/ Some days even your feet are against you x orange pic.twitter.com/ZCsPnX4AZE — cats being weird little guys (@weirdlilguys) February 4, 2024 Or you’ve got the “broke again” blues Some weeks Thursday feels like a Monday Heck, even ghosts can have bad days: BAD Ben! Ignore that cancer stick in his hand, please ;p — PSA from an ex-smoker But never fear! Things are not as they appear! For example, if you’re having a bad day today, just remember — today is also Half-Price Valentine’s Candy Day !!!!! YAY!!!!!!! Chocolate — the Incredible Hulk of desserts Why limit yourself to one? It’s not just days that are not always as they appear. Cats do it too! Sometimes cats look like other things…. Sometimes other things look like cats… Sometimes both things happen at once! Sometimes it’s your perspective that makes things look “off”… Or maybe you’ve jumped to some unwarranted conclusions So next time you’re having a bad day, check your assumptions and your attitude, and visit a PWB diary! Just remember these words of wisdom... And have a great day! P.S. Because I didn’t get a chance to post it yesterday, I want to send an itteh bitteh kitteh kiss to all the fabulous Peeps, and to the entire DK community! Are you seeing signs of spring where you are yet? I just saw the teeniest hint of daffodils coming up!
