Thinking about how the local hospital diagnosed me with bipolar years back, only for several therapists to later to tell me “oh yeah, they do that to maximize insurance payout and are notorious for it. you’re not bipolar”

little gift for a wonderful creature !!

i gave a 90 minute panel on the basics of plurality during the avalikin mini con, @dasnull.bsky.social was kind enough to record it for me. if 90 minute rambles interest you, here's one you can put on www.youtube.com/watch?v=M67z...

THIS IS A THERIAN STOP POINT stretch your tail flex your claws shake your coat if you have one that's better ✨️🐾

we need to bring back antechambers in women’s restrooms with fainting couches and amenities

does anyone know if Canada is accepting trans asylum seekers from the US?

I’m really excited for what’s next in VR over the next few years, I love seeing creatures becoming more lifelike as face tracking and FBT spread and get more affordable

i can't believe silksong is real and coming out on september 4th

I wish there were more VR cons than just Furality. Between stuff like COVID and rising costs of con passes, hotels, travel, etc., VR cons are just so much more enjoyable and accessible

The countdown is on! Join us in 48 hours for a special announcement about Hollow Knight: Silksong! Premiering here: youtu.be/6XGeJwsUP9c

a therapist from a DBT group I was in talked a lot about “alternative rebellion” as a way to approach maintaining spoon levels when you’re neurodivergent. Tired and in pain while cleaning the kitchen? Lay down or sit on the floor. Can’t handle rinsing the dishes? Run the dishwasher twice.

it’s incredibly exhausting seeing the “trans people should just compromise their right to exist if dems put up a candidate who doesn’t support them” voices popping up more and more. do they not realize how insane it is to ask us to compromise our own right to exist?

I tried installing GNOME instead of hyprland on my framework 12 and immediately ran into issues and got frustrated because I can't just build the environment myself lol

yeah sex is great and all but have you ever been nuzzled by someone who makes you feel seen

my maslow’s hierarchy consists entirely of nuzzling and cuddling and preening birds

chat, do I make an AD?

PBS is in danger of going away. How can you help us and your local station? Visit ProtectMyPublicMedia.org and urge Congress to protect PBS funding. And thanks to everyone who followed before our first skeet. We see you!

do you ever wonder how far the graph of Patreon creators supporting each other extends and how many closed loops of money being exchanged in a cycle there are

so it turns out taking meds that have bad side effects for you isn't good for you, who would've thought

I hate that it feels like the universe punishes me for trying to help people and trying to generally be a good creature

I am so out of my element trying to figure out shooting in log and color correcting in post. I thought it would be as simple as working with color spaces with stills, *I was wrong*

no cheating, post your lock screen Minimalist featuring @winghugs.bsky.social

Well damn Ghost Rider I was just sitting here minding my own business WTF

somebody should figure out if having your content removed because of a payment processor gives you standing to sue said payment processor. i'm sure the EFF would be very interested in that

I think about this comic a lot

Amazon Ring is introducing a new feature that would allow police to request live-stream access to people’s home security devices. Helllll no. If you have one of those things, get rid of it. Kill it with fire

is there some secret unwritten rule of the universe that your 20s has to be “oops, all trauma”

they could honestly poach a lot of good talent for building out that infrastructure in canada (and elsewhere) simply by making it easy for us to move out there and start working on it

I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven

do you ever wonder why so many people who use dill to cook mention having a surplus of it? i'll tell you the secret. if you plant a single dill seed you will have something that resembles a tree six months later, and you will scrambling to figure out how to use it all

"why am I so exhausted all the time" i say, knowing the clinical profile of major depressive disorder

girl are you an idle air control valve? because you're stuck in my head and you make me go RRRrrRRRrrrRRRrrrRRRrrr

you know, I fail to understand how people afford electric cars while still being able to eat, cover a mortgage, etc. in this economy lol. they're all like $60k+, my car in 2018 was like $35k new

"Creature" is such a good term. It's gender neutral, it rejects humanity, it implies danger or anomaly, and it's valid for any species. Shoutouts to all my creature friends

What sorority is ΘΔ and why are so many fox girls in it?

creatures, if I wanted to get into 3D printing, where is a good place to start? I know Bambu had a whole thing, and people say Creality can be good but takes work/mods to get there, but I’m kinda looking for something that is FDM and decent out of the box. Maybe Prusa?

one day I hope to make it to an in-person con, but COVID just scares the hell out of me being in an at-risk group. it would be nice if there were more VR cons like Furality though. I’d love to see a VR con circuit spring up

holy fuck, if you get banned from a community, and people block you, the correct response is *not* to hound everyone and try to dodge the ban and people's blocks. holy shit.

begging bluesky to implement webauthn or at least give us TOTP for MFA. email codes are like the barest of the bare minimum

By the way, almost every time I have mentioned my plans to do this, I've gotten at least one "That's a thing?!" type of response, so, I'd like to make a thread in which I talk about the process I went through to make this happen, and now that I've done it, my experiences with having fangs! 🧵

it's insane to me that fansly just blanket banned furry content

I hate the feeling of knowing I need time to relax while my brain is simultaneously like “it is time to do things”

can we rewind back to furality? I don’t like this timeline anymore
