I'm at AnthroNW this weekend. I have a small vending table in the art/photo show room and I'll be doing some panels and a book reading. Check out the con schedule and my event page (aetusart.com/event/anthro...) for details.

Packing up to head to Anthro Northwest! We’ll be hosting a bird party and a private reading of Whiterock, & I’m doing some bird panels. If you’re a bird & want to follow bird events, join our ANW Telegram bird group! t.me/+8fyfgsxYvd8...

Happy Gregorian new year to all of my birdfriends trapped in human bodies. I wish you all the best in the new year. If you party hard tonight, do it safely. We'll be partying in Seattle!

An interesting topic thread came up recently about avoiding Christmas dt it's religious underpinnings. If you're wondering if others are feeling the same aversion, the answer is yes. Research shows that organized religion, esp. Christianity, is on the decline in the US. youtu.be/M1aa5dis4Pc?...

@pheagleadler.bsky.social Where's my money?

All art commission slots full! Thanks for all those that jumped on board.

I forgot till just now, but yesterday was my #furriversary. 13 years ago I took the plunge and made an account on FA. My first furry freind was @ferobird.bsky.social

I fixed an issue with the https://aetusart.com/commission-request, so if you had an issue making a request, try again! Thank you, birdfriends. :>

I'm opening for five slots to be completed by March 31, 2026. The opening period will close January 5, 2026. NSFW ok. Avian, winged, or kobold characters only. Priority to Patreon/Discord backers. Details/application: https://aetusart.com/event/new-year-2026-commission-slots-open-27

For my $10+ Patreon supporters, I'm gifting you access to the new audiobook edition of The Sky Calls, wonderfully narrated by @gryphonpages.bsky.social. It's perfect for that long holiday drive or airplane trip. Stay warm, stay safe, and enjoy! www.patreon.com/posts/happy-...

Saw these guys at the zoo during the Christmas Bird Count, and thought of you, @ecmajor.bsky.social

It's really real! The audiobook of The Sky Calls will be dropping into distribution this week! If you've been a supporter on select Patreon tiers or in my Discord, stay tuned because you'll be getting a little Christmas present-- free access! My thank you for your financial and emotional support. ❤️

I’m liking the new merch photos I put up on aetusart.com. 🥰

Have a read of my doings at MFF, work on the next book, and recent photos. Also, new audiobook edition of The Sky Calls is finally coming out! Read the whole thing here: https://aetusart.com/blog/chirpdates-17/december-2025-chirpdate-92

That’s a mess of eggs (2 emu eggs ~950 mls). Very viscous and rich.

Blew out some emu eggs. One contained 500 mls of goo, the other 450 mls. Gonna try something artistic with the shells, the contents will get scrambled up for tacos.

Kinda cool to see my book surfacing on global distribution. A Netherlands furry found this listing on Bruna. I make less when not bought through my site, but shipping to Europe is expensive, so I'm totally cool with people buying it this way. Better for the planet too. www.bruna.nl/engelse-boek...

@victorredtail.bsky.social Darn it! Quite picking on eagles! youtube.com/shorts/99E3J...

Wonderful sculpture of Keno was done by Avvi who is a legend! I'm so grateful cuz everything about this is superb ^v^

The Vanity Fair spread from the White House is brutal. The photographer chose to make them look small and powerless in the wides, and brutishly unflattering in the absurdly tight portrait shots. It's a masterclass of shade and manipulation via a camera.

It’s a real dick-punch, but I’m boycotting Coke till they back off on using GenAI in advertising. Right now they just double-down & pretend it’s not AI, showing zero empathy while marketing artificial humanity. I like cane sugar coke but the world (and me) will be better off without this shit.

A warm au revoir to #AC2025 <3 🧡💚💜💙🧡 One year since my very first furcon right here, and the Rito flock only grows stronger 🥹 Soar long, Pittsburgh et à la prochaine 🪽 #furry #rito #zelda #anthrocon2025

Pteri's a good kitty. They boosted my Discord server recently and made the community better, so I drew them a sticker. Yeah, it's rare that I draw mammals, but it was a fun attempt.

Did this one as well! The crown might be printed in gold foil, but I did make a version with it rendered in case a suitable printer couldn't be found. [ #Art #FantasyArt ]

Hey birbfriends, my birdfriend PeregrineFalconLady does some really nice art. You should definitely take a slot while you can!

I'm happy to say that 80% of those who buy a copy of Whiterock choose the spicy adult edition. Even some non-furries are buying it. You reaffirm to me that sexual curiosity is alive and well in the world. 👏👏

@b-york.bsky.social @bombird.bsky.social

I bumped into @leritoorange.bsky.social near the art show yesterday. Love the hugs with those big wings. 🥰

I was happy to be visited at my booth by @bandrik.bsky.social and Samwise too! Sam’s new suit is awesome!

It was great to see birdfriends the past couple days at my booth at #furfest2025! @stormykittyhawk.bsky.social @venturaosp.bsky.social @avianinvasion.com @dizfoley.bsky.social

#Birds come by my #furfest2025 table and get a free avian identity ribbon. If you’re not a bird, beware. As soon as you touch the ribbon, you become one of us!

My first live reading, face to face with an audience, was last night. Thank you to all that attended. I’m not sure it was my best performance, but I enjoyed myself and I hope you did too. #furfest2025

How to find my booth today. Also: If you want a sketch done at the con, come early because slots fill fast. I’ll leave two slots open for Saturday to help those that can’t make it Friday, but they still fill fast. #furfest2025

The #furfest2025 booth came together nicely. Come by tomorrow and say hi to me and the eagles! 🦅
