I got this wonderful drawover done by @kineia3, on a photo taken by @mossmaker.bsky.social during a trip we took together earlier this year. I really love how it turned out a lot, it's one of my favorite photos of myself and Kineia did an incredible job of fitting my sona into it :neofox_happy:

I spent the last two weeks painting a 60ft #mural in #Ottawa! Thrilled to have been one of 5 Canadian #Indigenous artists making this beautiful work. Higher quality shots of the finished piece coming soon 🤞

feeling that cultural anthropologist could make a much better furry documentary than whatever the news journalists can cook up.

this is a very biased opinion obviously. the issue is research question, direction, and goal. A journalists documentary will not provide an emic and self produced analysis that truly bridges the gap, bringing understanding to popular culture. All I can say is I hope they do better this time.

Reading the Earthsea series for the first time pn my breaks at work. And wow, what amazing writing and worldbuilding. It is a beautiful and peaceful work, and is already close to my heart

No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.

news.com.auAI labs buy, scan, shred millions of rare booksIf you have retreated to physical books because the internet is too full of AI slop, bad news — now they’re shredding the books to feed their AI slop machines.

People really need more nonsense in their life. Do something that doesn't make sense. Get away from this perspective that all action needs to have some kind of value, monetary or otherwise. Do things to do them, enjoy some nonsense.
