there is a conversation to be said Abt being autistic and finding comfort in infantile things solely for the fact it brings comfort and dealing with other autistic people who look down on that idea because of their superiority complex towards "weird" autistics.

How to be one person

your late 20s are genuinely hilarious because you start them feeling the dread of your "20s reaching an end" and then you end up realizing the whole concept of the 20s/30s distinction is meaningless and your 30s are a kind of freedom

Hey so like Why is there no door to the bathroom

Me: V, sweating: You give me a very specific look whenever you realize you can chew on me without consequence

Lot of people discussing this with the idea of failing faster. I would put it to you that failure doesn’t actually have to exist at all in this conception. One of the great mistakes of the AI brouhaha is the belief that art is good because of its craft or content. It is good because it connects us.

I think the greatest trick for getting good at creative work i know is - finish making as many mediocre things as possible. Just finish stuff, again and again. Share it or don’t, but put a bow on it, put it aside, make the next thing, repeat.

So hold tight to one another, and push. Be kind for every reason you can muster, there is so much love in this world, and in us.

i don't have the energy for bad pet owners getting twisted that i pointed out they're bad. idk maybe grow up and start practicing responsibility instead of huffing and puffing about a stranger online being honest about your failings. or die mad about.

yes, i DO think less of you as a person if you let your cat outside unsupervised.

we bleed the same - we live the same

*leans in* chronically ill people aren't going to be reaching out to you when they're feeling like shit and that's not a shortcoming or toxic trait, they won't have the energy to reach out/don't want to be a bother.

Hey, here’s a hot tip on how to be a friend: if you know your friend is having a rough time, maybe they’ve had multiple losses and a major illness, try checking in on them and asking how they’re doing instead of just assuming they will reach out if they need something!!! Fucksake

There was going to be another panel in this comic but to be frank I think this is funnier

Okay which one of you local Portland furries owns this bike with the @tansy.bsky.social Furgaytionland sticker lmao, it was parked right outside my apartment building this morning, we may be neighbors :P

ALRIGHT DUDES MAJOR UPDATE!!! WE GOT A PLACE AND A JOB IN SHAKOPEE!!! We will be moving.... ✨MAY 29TH✨ We have so much packing and cleaning to do, BUT WE ARE SO HYPE!!! If anyone would like to help us with the move, here's our GFM!! ➡️ gofund.me/2b3f81ac0

Indigo had a fun time at GSCC! ran into a lot of other cool furs there ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ

I wanted to show off the suit I made for FCL2024 for #FursuitFriday because I'm still so proud of how Finneus turned out! He was my biggest step in the right direction when it came to making my own suits!! Photo by @svenfennec.bsky.social

Hawai’i just passed a bill that undermine Citizens United. The bill establishes corporations as “artificial persons” without the right to spend money on elections. The bill could limit the influence of super PACs and be a model to challenge the influence of money in politics.

i love FAT PEOPLE i think they’re COOL and HOT !!!!!!!

happy endangered species day, please keep in mind the amount of work done by those who have sought to preserve the lives and legacy of species that may have otherwise fallen out of the world today, it is work that is so important and relatively unseen.

The fact that we might see a roughly Apatosaurus-sized animal disappear in our lifetimes is nauseating.

Any species going extinct because of us is a travesty, but something about it feels especially jarring when it’s a legitimate giant. The largest animal to go extinct in the last 500 years was Steller’s sea cow (8-10 metric tons), in the last 50k giant elephants (13-18 metric tons)

Today we celebrate Endangered Species Day. 🐾With less than 26 Red Wolves known to remain in the wild and Mexican gray wolves still fighting for recovery, these species remind us why your voice matters now more than ever. 📣 nywolf.org/save-the-wol...

Sorted my thoughts about censorship, so I can stop thinking about it.

Alt text for those that need it

it’s not just about things like alt text it’s warnings before flashing/eyestrain calling your reps on bills affecting disabled folk captioning your videos taking time to learn about disability and the impacts just. things like that idk.

sometimes i feel like people want to do right by disabled folks but then it requires any effort and it’s too much it’s disheartening. but i am thankful for those who DO put in the efforts.

LOL

Guys. Heads up. Let’s talk about Hantavirus. There have been SEVERAL bad takes and BLATANT misinformation circulating regarding this outbreak so I figured it was a good idea to make a thread about it. Stay calm. Stay vigilant. Know your facts. Here’s ALL you need to know. 🧪🧵⬇️

Glanced down while walking past @ultravioletproxy.bsky.social's chair only to get called out by this damn box 😔

purity politics

My dream is to one day have a big plot of land with a bunch of little houses on it for me and all my best friends TT_TT My partner, one of our friends, and I are aiming to do this(whenever its feasible for the 3 of us lol....) but we need MORE!! I yearn for a little community in the forest....

I seriously hate to keep doing this but I am flat broke right now. Bills are coming up, my partner still doesn’t have a job, no sales happening. I am so stressed and exhausted from moving. I am trying so hard to get back to work but I need just a few more days. Please help if you can.

please understand. artists don't get nearly as much feedback (praise, comments or otherwise) as you think they do. much less than years and years ago. we don't know how much you like it. we don't know how it affected you. unless you say something, or recommend it, comment, reblog. anything.

An evergreen sentiment but one that needs repeating. (Opossum originally made for MIBF but we decided on the flowers instead!)

Long drives after a con are the best time to ponder the past weekend events but also…scheming future costumes. I missed this feeling so much. I am back babyyyy!! Gonna create so many cool things, hope ya’ll are ready!!!

GETTING SENTIMENTAL, BUT AFTER EVERYTHING WE HAVE ALL GONE THROUGH, AND EVEN HOW MUCH THE FANDOM HAS ENDURED, IT IS JUST UNBELIEVABLE HOW FAR WE HAVE COME. FROM HIDING, OR BEING ALONE, TO THIS. WE ARE TOGETHER FILLING THIS MASSIVE PLACE. ITS PURE MAGIC. ILL NEVER TAKE IT FOR GRANTED. EVER
