Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for November 16, 2024

I think that nothing is gonna get done until those cats pull an Invisible Lupin and disappear from the water cooler…

Sometimes the too obvious choice is still the best choice.

Goldie always seems to have a theory. Nothing much gets past her.

O.T. – TampaFanatic has been missing for almost 40 days.

Thank you, Orb for all the kind, lovely birthday wishes you sent me! ❤️❤️❤️ Today is my birthday in the Northern Hemisphere, but it’s been the 16th in New Zealand for nearly a whole day now. (ﾐゝᆽ╹ﾐ) Hubby and I had a wonderful day, my taste buds are fully functional again (yay!!!) and we had dinner at my favourite restaurant, Empire Chicken. ☺️ Now we’re watching some favourite shows. The second season of Silo is finally out!! WOOHOO!!!! ღƪ(ˆ◡ˆ)ʃ♡ƪ(ˆ◡ˆ)ʃ♪ What a great way to begin my 43rd year on this planet!

Classic water cooler behavior.

We have one of those. We call it the “glug glug” because that’s the sound it makes when it refills the dish.

And still they drivel on about that pathetic soap opera. If I wasted my time on that, I’d guess it was Dr. Mittens. But I don’t, so I won’t.

I see someone got a replacement cup after the last one was destroyed in a fit of violence.

Why even theenks of who done it in steenky soapy opera for they is no make any sense anyways.

I see someone is wearing pants. That wasn’t clear from yesterday’s strip.

Blowing your ‘cover’ there, Lupin…

And about steenky so called AI, Google’s steenky AI is tell user to die. No joke. This true. Steenky Gemini is tell student that he useless waste and tell him to die. Just imagines if that guy was already depressed and theenking of keeling heemself. Now he is reportedly left shaken after this experience. It time someone pull the plug on this “AI” nonsense before it cause real harm to someone.

And for cats and roombas sees today’s FREE RANGE.

I just can’t figure out why Goldie does not believe you, Lupin! Lol!

Of course the local detective would know how these things work!

Lupin has never, ever seen this new water cooler. Not in any of his nine lives.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile (Encore Edition)

Beatrixia: I just found this scroll in the 794s on a board game called Senet.

Puckmosis: I’ve heard of that. Back in the day it was played by royalty and commoners alike. But nowadays no one knows the rules.

Elvis-Anum: The pictures of the board and playing pieces are lovely, though. I wonder if the Artisans would be interested in making one.

Puckmosis: I’ll ask Iron Glove when he and Adobe Style are here from Afar.

Sometime Later, at the Artists’ Studio

Iron Glove: I’m delighted to show you my new Senet board and playing pieces. Now how do you play it?

Beatrixia: That’s what we’re trying to find out. According to the scrolls, Senet means Passing in the ancient tongue.

Lupinium: That must be it! Bea, run to the end of the room and I’ll throw the board to you.

Bea: I don’t think that’s quite what they mean. There is another scroll with old-style hieroglyphs. Maybe we can ask Violet-Ifa if she can translate.

Sometime Later

Violet-Ifa: Yes, these hieroglyphs are about the game of Senet.

Puckmosis: What do they say?

Vi: “We kinda made up the rules at we went along.”

My theory is that Brad, Dr. Mittens and Angora’s father (Snowball?) conspired together to frame Kit, in order to blackmail Angora into marrying Brad.

I love them all but seriously- is there anything cuter than Lupin in a suit and tie???

One of the things I loved about teleworking was that I no longer had to hear my cubicle coworkers prattling on about TV shows and sports.

Little kitty size cups !!

Oh, so nonchalant Lupin! Why, what is this contraptioin I’ve never seen before! [Rolling eyes]. Sure, Lupin, very believable [Rolling eyes further].

OT: Mom update

But that’s just a theory! A Kit theory! Thanks for watching!

.

…nobody here is gonna know what I’m on about….

Her death glare towards Lupin in panel two is nicely pulled off.

OT – Wow. I mean, WOW!

OT: Ivar the ceramic viking appears to be fixed. The glue is holding better than I had expected. I am going to try to find some paint to touch up around the glued areas to make him look a bit better. Thanks to all the Orb for your support and suggestions on how to mend him.

I see Goldie Toe Beans, I see Goldie Toe Beans! Squi!

Way to change the subject, Lupin. Peace is restored.

PSA if you are considering joining Georgia’s Patreon…..

I think it must have been the writers .

Lupin looks very casual leaning against the water thing.

Good for Elvis separating himself so he doesn’t have to be annoyed by soap opera chat or Lupin. It’s a good solution.

Off-Topic

Lupin just may be the worst dissembler ever! remember “what party?” from May 10, 2022. (the arc starts on Apr 4th)

Anyone else having trouble getting into Patreon? A while ago, it messed up autotyping from my password manager. So I had to carefully copy and paste my ID, hit return, then copy and paste my password. Now it gives me a message “Something went wrong. Try refreshing the page and logging in again” Dang straight something went wrong, completely unfixably. I managed to log in with Safari, but then it wouldn’t let me post because I wasn’t logged in—except that the page showed me as logged in, with my avatar! I am a creator, though not yet ready to share my work with the world. Patreon now has a NEGATIVE 5000% chance of getting my business! What an incredible CLUSTER-KLUDGE!!!

As for supporting Georgia on Patreon, I will continue to do so—if the incompetent idiots will ever let me log in again!

This is completely off-off-topic, but I’ve noticed several people mentioning sci fi shows and was wondering if there are any Dr. Who fans?
