There's a transmasculine version of this. If someone assigned female can become a man, it means there's nothing so special or powerful about men. Each of us has the biological truth of equality between the sexes within us, as demonstrated by the ability of some to pass from one to the other.

I've been chewing on the distinction between SUFFERING and MISERY. 🌎 = suffering. The grind is as old as time.

My co-worker was doing a peer review on a gnarly chunk of my code and asked how the heck I stayed focused on this task. I told her I have a special technique. It's like Pomodoro, but instead of a break every 30 minutes, I have a mental breakdown every 30 minutes.

Take a shot if you still remember your ICQ number you haven't used in 15+ years *drinks*

Deeply thankful for the creatures new and old that made FC feel like coming home. Until we meet again.

"Isn't that the one furry band?"

I find this sign genuinely charming. Surprisingly good corporate chain still serves Wi-Fi the old fashioned way.

Why is the ONLY good piece of product design I've seen this decade a freakin' Hatsune Miku MP3 player.

If you had one shot or one opportunity To seize everything you ever wanted – One moment Would you capture it or just let it slip?

"Did you see what Mark Cuban posted? Oh did you see the clapb—" You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

Despite a friendly acquaintanceship, this is actually the first bit of Sandy's fiction I've read. I did not expect a charming piece of smut to send me on an existential spiral about family, home, and belonging.

>Minding my own business. >My (metaphorical) CPU fan spins up to takeoff power. Uh oh...

My husband stayed home with a cold. I love this man.

Sea snails inventing purple after hearing about shrimp colors: "the humans are going to be so jealous they can't see this one."

I've long thought I'm difficult to startle. Husband has startled me to the point of cursing three times this week. Turns out I was just hyper vigilant for like three decades and in learning to let go, my natural state is to spook like a deer.

what's a "shibboleth"

Finally, a company that stands by their quality ontrol.

Kurt Vonnegut’s definition of what makes something “art” is one of my favorites I’ve seen - from a letter to his brother in 1995.

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

5e.tools? Oh, you mean wiki feats.

Hitting a toilet with a sledgehammer may be the most cathartic experience a human can have. Apropos of nothing, my car that has been sitting for several weeks has a fuzzy layer of mold on every interior surface.

Discworld QOTD, from Night Watch “He didn’t look around, and watch and learn, and then say, ‘This is how people are, how do we deal with it?’ No, he sat and thought: ‘This is how the people ought to be, how can we change them?’ And that was a good enough thought for a priest but not for a copper…”

A friend asked for book suggestions, and honestly I'll concede on this one... Anyway, check out The Atrocity Archives by @cstross.bsky.social if you somehow haven't read it and James Bond the IT guy fights Eldritch horrors sounds up your alley.

Finally posting my new comic, Wolfhead, about fursuiting and playing pretend. Deer fursuit shots referenced from photography by @attyboy.bsky.social 🧵(1/3)

"I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure."

Interestingly this might make the complement to disaster "stellar" or "star."

disaster. dis aster ill-starred Sorry, my planets were out of alignment.

Aristotelian epistemology proposes happiness is derived from fulfillment of ones "telos" or innate purpose. In this essay I will...

Last re-share: I thought my (already minimal) engagement dropped off recently. Looks like it might have been this reply to my friend about their hornet encounter. Sorry @tinyheehaw.bsky.social. 😅

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Commenting on my boyfriend's tendency to show up online exactly as I start typing: Is it some sort of polycule psychic link? Bi-Fi? No wait, we're each other's side piece...It's a broad-cast.

puppiest second date! 💕💝🐾

Midnight's project is some of the most important art I've seen this year. How many characters have I forgotten? How many evolved with me beyond recognition? The vivid colors hide a subtle pain that defies naïveté. He offers a chance to go back. Not as blind nostalgia, but with a dogged optimism.

Was searching for a reaction gif of @techconnectify.bsky.social and was getting pages of generic graphics... so I set the Color filter to Brown and that cleaned my result set right up.

Elder Wolf at the Table is a love letter to aging, faith, & creaturehood—to the slow holiness of growing softer without losing wildness. It’s about what happens when we grow old but not tame; when we learn to share the table & stop guarding. Part reflection, part #therian prayer: a guide to gentler.

can I borrow a couple of bucks? 🦌🦌 #furry #furryart

BLFC will always be a cathartic experience I have permanent love for all of you “We didn't need a story, we didn't need a real world We just had to keep walking And we became the stories, we became the places We were the lights, the deserts, the faraway worlds We were you before you even existed”

A particularly insidious but common pitfall of community moderation is an understandable but wrong insistence on running things via strict adherence to a set of guidelines. This never actually works in practice because you end up with a bunch of bad faith actors constantly testing boundaries.

Happy Locktober to those who celibate. 🔐

I'm ready to have so many bad opinions! Thank you for this incredible work of art @labradorszn.bsky.social
