DARK AETHER IS QUITE LOVELY THIS TIME OF YEAR. (🎨 by @pancakesrayreal.bsky.social)

Don't know if I ever posted my zard's ref here, but it seems like a fitting thing to toss in. A day like for Tri-Day but still. 🎨 by @covertcanine.bsky.social , who also sells this as a base if you want to make your own!

All this milk appearing in the farm is certainly odd, but you can see the reason why, She hopes you'll keep it a secret ;3 Done for @markusmccloud.bsky.social! #Rai-Art #Furryart #Hyper #Hypersky

Re-drawing old stuff

Milk 👀💦

I keep having cool videos and fun projects ruined for me because the people making them decided using ai was a good idea this is something I won't budge on, no matter how many things are ruined for me because of it! Gen-ai is garbage in every way, and if you use it, you're wrong!

I've found the best strategy when your reps are Rs is to really hammer home how Anti-American, Anti-1st amendment, & anti-freedom these bills are, cause it's true. Also how much they've tanked the popularity of candidates who've backed KOSA in the UK. Also endless "you're wasting my tax $ on THIS?!"

Important: AI prompter slop bullshit is not welcome in #Octransfur, and it should be roundly shunned and removed from the art community as a whole. The simplest pencil doodle or the littlest bit of flash fiction made by hand has more meaning than a computer-generated comm ever could. AI, fuck off.

from a moral standpoint, you really oughta consider losing your game pass subscription due to the bds boycott. 'not' from a moral standpoint, what the fuck lmao. what the fuck. thats one and a half silksongs a month. that's three yakuza 0s a month. that is, funnily enough, 360 dollars a year

the website to cancel Xbox Game Pass subscriptions is overloaded

Thinking about the AI slop rejection letter, and remembering how back in the day sometimes you'd get an "interview", then it'd turn out to be a Cutco/Avon/Tupperware thing. It is ridiculous how much energy & time is wasted on grifting the already-struggling.

If things do get awry in the US, once the situation here gets a little better and I can get back to home fixing, I'll offer my queer homies a place to stay as I do live very close to the border. :)

eating burgers and getting fat to avoid military service cause they said "no fat people allowed"

I’m one of the first to argue for the uselessness of Dems at the federal level and it’s important to acknowledge that there are Dems out there fighting and we’re not seeing it because the billionaire owned media outlets don’t want us to know

Can’t wait for the “some rights need to be held off to keep the government open” speech. Can’t wait for the “think of those poor government workers they need to pay rent” speech when they strip access to my trans healthcare to nothing.

Nuclear bomb 😭 #furryart #oc #aeromorph

I found more joy in life this way.

at least I can save on milk prices now #furry #furryart #bustyboy #breastexpansion #lactation

US have a gov shut down, first time in 6 years. So who was in charge then? Oh. “It can only good happen” Rahted country. Anyway. All eyes on the flotilla www.youtube.com/live/uEN2bWF...

Every single time I've come across "only good vibes" people, They turned out to be the most TOXIC people EVER.

Reminder: toxic positivity goes hand-in-hand with puritanism. Trying to be "good vibes only" masks reality and allows for shit like Nazism to take hold. Blocking out the real world entirely in the name of "escapism" just makes abuse easier.

Super super easy to use this

And the message that they're saying, anyone who 'avoids politics' is that politics doesn't impact them, not really, and they'd like to keep it that way even if it means lying in bed with the fascists, who don't want to oppress them per se.

This is URGENT y'all, more resources through this post! Give em a hard time!!

It's midnight. We are officially in a government shutdown. No clean CR was passed. Congress moves on to negotiating during what could be a protracted closure. Thank you all for calling to let them know that whatever gets negotiated, anti-LGBTQ provisions cannot be in the final appropriations bill.

I just got a VERY interesting email that allies in congress were upset that so many of my readers were calling about the anti-trans provisions. I'm here to say: good. I won't let them throw our rights under the bus by cover of night. All's that to say, keep up the calls. They're hearing you.

New month means new Deal! from Now to the 8th, all flat color commissions are $20!! and Gameboy style sprite portraits are $5!! examples below, DM if interested!

UPDATE: It's bad. We need to secure an $1,800 deposit before Wednesday. Our eviction was finalized, $14K debt was wiped (thank God) and we signed a lease on a new place. But our cat, Charlotte, got very sick, which costed us $2,500. Any help will be greatly appreciated gofund.me/158c482c

Miss Major, one of the mothers of the trans liberation movement, has been in the hospital for 10 days with sepsis and a blood clot. She has looked out for us for generations, now it’s time to look out for her. Donate if you can: fundly.com/missmajor

Are you kidding me right now? This is the last thing we need. KOSA is back no thanks to Senator Blumenthal who is working with the GOP and bringing in Republican Senators to convince the House to support it. Please, CALL GOP House leadership and tell them to keep opposing it!

Not my picture but my god this EXACTLY sums up why I'm so done with goddamn internet discourse. Everyone feels they have to have a take. It feels like people are seeking out negativity rather than just... enjoying what they do like. I genuinely don't wanna be around people who act like this anymore

I think about this a lot

y'all need to REALLY REALLY YELL ABOUT THIS. leave messages, send emails, call them when theyre in their offices tomorrow, YOU NEED TO BE LOUD ABOUT THIS. www.congress.gov/members/find...

These are the specific things that got recalled. Be careful, guys

☁️you should use this word instead of "selfcest" i justmade it. just for you. please take it. please take it.

I hate doing this, but I need to ask my friends for financial support. This move to Denver was a mistake and I am barely making enough to pay all of my bills. My minimum goal is 50 to stay out of the red. My overall goal is 2000 to not be behind on rent. www.paypal.com/donate?hoste...

KOSA is now in red alert priority. Please contact your representatives, dem and gop alike, and demand they oppose KOSA We need to turn out in numbers against this!

the youtube vs yt-dlp arms race is hilarious, because of how lopsided it is. on the one hand, you've got a company with the GDP of Denmark who has about a manhattan-project's worth of developers they can assign to this. but on the other end, you've got every bored or annoyed javascript hacker.

An overwhelmingly common reason people give for enjoying this type of work IS ITS SEPARATION FROM REALITY. People are ENJOYING A FANTASY, not planning their weekend. This deserves protection.

chesty

And that would be all, along with my own and a lovander to finish up! Thank you everyone!

Finally finished all entries, and here are the results!

Reminder to anyone following me for politics... The missing piece of the plan is American Manufacturing was/is more expensive to buy and higher quality by design. BUT if you want to sell those goods to Americans, the workers need to be paid enough to BUY it. That last part is being ignored badly.

Thank you to everyone who was able to help this summer. 💛 Thanks to overshooting the July/August goal, I was able to supplement the extra with money from some sales of personal possessions to get through September. I'm very keen to get out of this rut. Unemployment is driving me up the walls.
