Guy who loves furry

Orders for hats close tomorrow!! I am buying my blanks tomorrow so if you want one make sure you get your order placed! Thanks so much to everyone who bought one. Love you all!!! I love furry :)

The embroidered hats are coming back! I'm visiting Pittsburgh in a few weeks and will be making another run of these at Protohaven Makerspace. This will be a limited run! Pre-Orders are open now on my website :) tommybruce.net/shop/p/ilove...

Please do! Rukus was a friend of mine, and doing art is a great way to honor his memory. He's still greatly missed after all these years.

even if you don't know the ppl at the center of this story still absolutely worth a watch. so lovingly beautifully made. if you do know these ppl and haven't seen it yet - just prepare to be touched and devastated

Gonna be running around this with Conrad!! Say hi!

This your reminder to get your friends together and watch Rukus and go make some art about our world.

If you've made one of those "fursuit touch guide" images and youre willing to let me reference it for a project, can you reply with it in the comments or DM it to me? Happy to share details before getting thumbs up for use

FurAffinity (a furry focused online art gallery) is looking for funding after refusing to comply with advertiser demands. And oh boy are some of those advertiser demands are pretty ridiculous.

Just donated!! It always bears repeating how essential and singular FA is in our community in this day and age, and more than any other platform they deserve your support, especially now!! Give what you can, or just spread this around if you can’t rn!

TLDR: Fur Affinity's advertising partners are demanding that they ban adult content. Sciggles and FA want to firmly tell them to go fuck themselves. If they're going to be able to afford to do that, they need the community's help. Pitch in. Keep furry weird. www.furaffinity.net/journal/1143...

despite a cursed week I finished up my submission for @juleshroom.bsky.social’s trailcam zine at the last minute :’3 ended up a lil less silly than intended but had fun working with charcoal for the first time in a while

Does anyone have a resource/guide for like... managing people who dominate a group chat? If you're reading this I promise it's not about you. But there's gotta be something on this out there right? Like, not people breaking rules, just folks coloring inside the lines but making the space suck.

Uh oh!

Oh neat! My friend teaching at VCU informed me that one of my images is on view in the campus student gallery! The piece is in a show of a huge private collection that will be donated to an institution someday. Go check it out if youre in Richmond! Some other great names in that show.

While not one of the images in this post, I cried seeing the photo of Booper and I at VancourFur 2019 featured in the article. I submitted this photo by either @elnath1984.bsky.social or @birb.mom talking about my experience in furry through our friendship over the years and heartbreak at his loss.

Get your ideas cooking everybody :)

Good thoughts from Kittee Mortis RE the instagram furry reaction to my recent photoshoot. I haven’t been fighting in the trenches on my post but i have been reflecting a lot on where this is coming from. Grateful to see others approaching the phenomenon with curiosity.

I love modeling for Atty. Now is a great time to work with him! We've had many shoots over the past decade & still amazed each time. His keen director's eye helps subjects get a flow going and he always uses our time well. Loving our trailcam shots with @cassiusad.bsky.social 😇

So, this turned out to be real!

I’m not surprised this one is a discourse magnet for some but this interaction is so sad to me. Immediate policing of your friends. The one saying theyre sad that theyre not allowed to like it. Crazy!

Lots of planning went into this! Huge thanks to @notyet-here.bsky.social for assistance, Cecil and Sebby for the use of their coop, of course Fox for modeling. I posted a ton about the concept and process on my patreon. If you like my work please support me here! www.patreon.com/tommybruce

Planning a controlled burn of the vibes so that they can continue to grow in a sustainable manner.

I mean we could spend years on this

This could be you….

Anyone near portland or seattle wanna remake this? Genuinely!
