I can’t stop looking at it

It won’t let me stop looking at it

Please

[–] b3an@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Yeah if my cat did that. I could never believe they weren’t sentient or inhabited by another entity again.

Not sure if "Steve, we need to talk" or "I've been watching you in your sleep."

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 41 points 1 week ago

Where are my testicles, Steve?

[–] irreticent@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

Probably both. Happy Halloween!

Everybody check your trinkets and see which is glowing. We need an ID on this creature before initiative.

Uncanny valley effect in full

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 35 points 1 week ago

Yeah I'm straight up dying from a heart attack if I woke up and saw that.

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 35 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Are you sure that's not a furry? You might have accidentally adopted a furry.

Very soon now...

[–] WheelcharArtist@lemmy.world 33 points 1 week ago

that actually looks kind of weird

[–] leftzero@lemmynsfw.com 30 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Looks like some kind of fae. Run.

[–] leftzero@lemmynsfw.com 21 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

This Terry Pratchett (GNU) quote pretty much explains it (he uses the term “(Discworld) elves”, but given that Lords and Ladies is clearly based on A Midsummer's Night Dream the quote equally applies to any kind of fae, and not necessarily, for instance, to Tolkien or DnD elves):

Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder.
Elves are marvellous. They cause marvels.
Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies.
Elves are glamorous. They project glamour.
Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment.
Elves are terrific. They beget terror.

The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.

No one ever said elves are nice. Elves are bad.

[–] BertramDitore@lemm.ee 10 points 1 week ago

Terry Pratchett was one of a kind.

Looks like a damn goblin puppet from labyrinth

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago

either this is the start of an anime, and the sidekick is waiting for you to wake up....

... or you gunna die.

given it's halloween....

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago

Nah this is fucked.

[–] M137@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

Sitting weirdly*

[–] lugal@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

"I was waiting for you"

[–] synapse1278@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

"what's wrong babe? Your not in the mood ?

  • it's not that... it's the cat...
  • c'mon, he just a pet, he doesn't understand what we're doing.
  • 😺: don't mind me, I'm just sitting here."
[–] Kernal64@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 week ago

There's nothing pretty about this. This is straight up nightmare fuel.

Happy Halloween, I guess.

[–] lazynooblet@lazysoci.al 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

We need a community for cats sitting weird

[–] irreticent@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

You should create one. The problem is finding content to fill it

[–] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Someone edit the cats shadow to look like a demon or something

[–] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 24 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Literally perfect

[–] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Your cat seems to be malfunctioning.

[–] bruhduh@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago
[–] TotalFat@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Make it stop

[–] HornedMeatBeast@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago
[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 week ago

run for your life and don't look back

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 week ago

God...if I was half that magnificent my life would have been way easier.....

[–] Naz@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago

I think this is the best post I've seen on Lemmy

[–] Jimbo@yiffit.net 5 points 1 week ago

As the resident cat furry I kind of have to like this

[–] riodoro1@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Your cat needs servicing man

[–] Machinist@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

So I get 10 years of wealth before you harvest my soul? Just sign on the dotted line? Is this ink made from blood?

[–] Donebrach@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

One step (sit?) closer to having Palicos

[–] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Isn't there some guy online that makes seemingly normal shorts/videos but puts weird shit like this in the background?

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Now I really hope someone has an answer because that sounds great
