This is how I should've woken up the other day! Thank you Beto for the YCH! 🎨 @pandabeto.bsky.social

It's Armed Forces Day here, so for those still in, 'Thank you for your service.' And while this is more a Vet's Day tail, it's a good watch. A 'found family' story of a 17yo poor gay kid who was suddenly alone and who joined the Navy in the mid 60's, shipped off to Viet Nam. 'worth a listen.

A Happy Mother's Day to those of you with kids or just wishing someday you might have them. This comic came to mind...

Miniature original on postcard.

Maryland Renaissance festival has explicitly banned fursuits. I never suited there but like…come on. This isn’t a living history museum. Renn faires were created by counterculture hippies who managed to invent wrap pants and convinced people the world they’re historical.

Thank you, thank you, thank you all so very much for your kindness and generosity! I cannot express how much your support means to me. 😭❤️😭

I tried to recreate the scene. Not quite, but best I could get. At least I actually now have a >24 fret guitar like this lemur has (it’s just missing 2 strings). #Sentients - Unite (that book there) is out now! It’s on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc. emptyset-art.com/sentients_-_...

Raleigh ALS walk day is tomorrow, will you help me reach my fundraiser goal for team Dogbomb? If I reach $500 by tomorrow, I'll do the ice bucket challenge at the end of ALS walk !!🌻 secure.alsnc.org/goto/Kofulion 📸 Vance the bat #FursuitFriday #TeamDogbomb

Owning a human pup can get expensive...

@charkonian.bsky.social Happy Birthday! 🍰

Aiming to just be educational here as I keep talking to people who think Tèhr@n is a small city full of stone huts and mud dwellings, not knowing there at 10-15Million people there a in a modern city. New idea to you? Give this a watch. And yes, bad gov' to be sure. www.youtube.com/shorts/dipTg...

I don't use TG, but you probably do. Give this a read: www.darkreading.com/application-... Take note of the recommended actions.

Well this aged well

Every now and then I’m reminded of how powerful this Shel Silverstein poem is. Tonight was a discussion with a good friend about baggage. About how things would be so much simpler if we just laid it out there instead of trying to constantly hide it.

Comics lost one of their influential greats at just 63yo w/the passing of Sam Keith (LB dementia is a lousy thing to have in the final chapter of one's life). I first encountered him back in '83 with Max the Hare, but he went on to do many of the characters you know bleedingcool.com/comics/sam-k...

Oh hey! This is my back! Check out the cool progress Kingsley is making!

I’m desperate. I need FTE and I am begging anyone who has a lead to please, please contact me. I am an established, experienced, award-winning videographer and editor with over 15 years in corporate communications, education, and nonprofit/wildlife sectors. I’m out of time, money, and wits. 😮‍💨 Help.

This is bonkers. Today, we hit record highs of 85-86 across DC area + had evening tstorms and tornado warnings. Tomorrow, temps may drop into 30s w/ chance of wet snow mixing w cold rain. The 24-hour temp change? 45 to 50F. Crazy but a great example of how you can get 3 seasons in 1 day!

Hey guys! I decided to create a Criterion Closet Challenge for people because I thought it would be fun! I'm curious to see what y'all would choose! :)

GRRREAT NEWS, EVERYONE! Thanks to an Anonymous Donor, I’m able to publish my Endless Webcomic Viewer iOS app. *wagswagswags* Yay! Thank you so much, whoever you are! ❤️ It is currently under review by Apple & I’ll make another announcement once it hits the App Store for those who are interested! :3

Sweet looking book @emptysetart.bsky.social, congrats!

I don't advertise much, but when something is good it's worth sharing. I buy gloves at bike shops. I'm picky and they have a great assortment. The cold doesn't bug me much, but a couple years ago I bought a pair of 'gauntlets' for cold weather. These are amazingly warm & dexterous in this crazy cold

I need a hot tub. Like many of us, It's been a long day of battling the snow accumulation. I broke out the electric 9" rated snowblower (3rd time in 8 years? I prefer to shovel), it fought through like a champ. Even the 3 foot wall the county would make, and inches of sleet just kept coming <cont>.

'saw this on Mast. it was new to me & cute. Maybe to you too. At night we get deer, foxes, the random cat, the occasional raccoons, but I don't think I've seen a possum in RL or on the cam in 10 years. I'd love one in the garage, but would be annoyed if there was that much room to get in at all :)

Have you ordered this short story yet? Have you read it? What did you think? Ebook, paperback, and hardcover are now available! It’s the perfect little appetizer to the main course: #Sentients - Unite, book 1 of 4, coming April 25! emptyset-art.com/a-sentients-...

To all my Rainbow_ark or Bare_furs followers, it sounds as though Russia is going to be closing down all non-Russian accounts of #LiveJournal very soon. Anything you have that you want to save can easily be transferred to #Dreamwidth if you so desire. @rahaeli.bsky.social and see the recent thread.

Hey readers: Do you find Table of Contents helpful in novels? Or do you generally skip over them?

Not use to seeing a limited time video but worth the watch.

Merry Christmas! I may not be on point with the religious aspect, but I do enjoy the mood, the music, get togethers, etc... To that end, Tim Minchin's 'White Wine in the Sun" (Sun because Aussies celebrate the holiday in their summer) really resonates with me. If it is new to you, give it a listen

With many of us visiting family, sometimes with kids present in the room, PLEASE LABEL ADULT MEDIA!!! Tagging hashtags is insufficient.

A classic for this Christmas Eve

Thoughts for the day: "Sometimes it's the very people of whom no one imagines anything that do the things that no one can imagine." (Not Alan Turing :) and "Would the people who think something is impossible please get out of the way of the people who are actually doing it."

Furries: If you have one of these, PLEASE take advantage of this recall. Having a cool pawprint power bank isn't worth having it burn your house down.

This is my annual(ish) 'Shit's getting cold out there' post to remind you not to wake up to, or come home to, a flooded basement. Close the valves to your outdoor spigots, but most importantly, then go open those spigots to let that water drain out and not freeze in the pipe. "Adulting.. ugh."

My algorithm wins again.

I have not posted, and @renegadekangaroo.bsky.social had publicly posted, folk have reached out to me asking, and I have not been able to find words within me to explain. @ottercynic.bsky.social left us last tue, and there is a huge void in our lives. Hug your friends, say I love you. *HUGS*

Gee, I remember when there were like a thousand furries in the whole world, and almost all of us could be accommodated in just one modest-sized airport hotel. What's also trippy is that doesn't seem like it was really all that long ago. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Autumn is coming!

On a related note, talk about a nail biter. If anyone ever says 'voting doesn't matter'....

@chrissawyerart.bsky.social You should drop me a DM sometime.

Some movies are just timely. 'No better evening to give V a watch.

For the locals, the Va side is always worth a visit and safely ignoring the signage.

National Coffee Day today, you say? Mmm, always a tasty day to celebrate. (🎨 @vantid.bsky.social)

I was wandering around Michaels' Halloween section and I can't help but thinking they're selling the Big Bad Wolf dropping grandma off at the pool while cleaning up with Red Ridinghood's cloak. I'm mostly posting it though, as I think more than a couple of you might feel a need to have one.

I’m crap at advertising, I make Furry shoes that people think are a fad. Then they buy them and realise how decked out they are in detail and quality

Something I've seen more lately on bsky is people not allowing others fun to be fun Someone loves Disney & you had a bad experience there, just stfu and let them be happy He loves Arby's, stfu about you hating corporate fast food chains in comments Let people be happy & don't one up them either
