Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

It looks like that vase is about to be destroyed

Next post: a very small pile of glazed clay pieces (uninterested cat for scale)

Cat giving you prison yard eyes for scale

That would look excellent on the ground.

It would be such a shame if something were to... happen to it, don't you think?

I saw really shitty clay pots in a T-shirt stand today advertised as "bring your friends a little pot from Colorado" and my first thought was that somebody should do that same joke but not shitty so it's still a worthwhile gift, if still a joke. Fast forward a few hours to now, where somebody has demonstrated that building a tiny piece of decent pottery is possible.

Did the vase survive, maybe?

diluted torbie, possibly?

which is to say — idk, general cat flavour

Standard issue foggy tortoiseshell cat. An absolute beauty.

Why did I read it as "cat for sale"

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

probably because it's true after the cat yeeted the vase
