@skvader That's how it usually (but not always) goes down for me when I look for SFW communities in general, like there's not much of a middle ground between hearing about people getting grounded for bad grades, and porn.

I added climbing and a simple placeholder animation for it. I feel like I need to incorporate more tail movement into the animations in general.

Starting to add some polish with animations and effects and such. Gonna try and implement some particle effects next.

Starting to get really worried that if communities that fit me well exist, they're likely super dead. I recently joined a Sabrina Online Discord server and it's dead. Most things I'm passionate about just do not have communities of any sort, and I don't know how to to find other people who like them.

I guess there's probably communities for Nintendo things I like but that's probably pushing into something of a scale way too large to make meaningful relations to others in.

I tried to draw my friend mousebyte, who hasn't gotten around to making a new Mastodon account yet. She doesn't have a reference sheet or anything so I had to just use artistic freedom and details she gave me. Don't feel very confident with digitigrade legs but she liked it at least!

@maple I'm always happy to see more people trying out writing homebrew

@bombshellbun I'm developing a game for the SNES starring my fursona, and this is a screenshot of my level editor I made as well as the level I'd designed actually in the game

A second commission from the same person who drew my earlier Maffi picture!

I still have a bit left to implement, but I'm very close to being able to just make stuff in my level editor and directly get it into my game. This means I can start actually designing some levels and get to playtest them as well!

Here's a commission of Maffi! I'm starting to just have artists draw her and apply artistic freedom and see what they come up with.

I wonder what domesticated animals must think of artificial light, specifically how it can turn on or off much faster than the sun.

I guess it's probably been around for a long time in the form of candles and lanterns and such.

@typhlosion I feel like I should try simply because of how many friends might. It's only like a 3.5 hour drive which isn't unreasonable.

When I saw the opportunity for Game Boy Color-esque commissions I knew I had to try and have Nova drawn in that style because she's already intentionally designed to work with few colors.

@bonf For me it greatly cuts down on anxiety and it really helps to make work tolerable, so I'd say yes

Added a blue red panda and a minty tiger to my cubicle decorations. I can now make jokes about installing Firefox Developer Edition into my cube.

Standing mere inches away from a real lion is wild

I subscribed to Sabrina Online on Patreon and even if it's a pretty different comic now I still want to support it! Getting to see pages early (AND see them immediately, since there's no RSS feed) is a really big perk.

I'm happy it's still going after all these years.

I think I feel disillusioned with roleplay lately, which is weird when it used to be very important to me. It's not very satisfying a lot of the time I try it, and it's a big struggle just to find other people who want the same things.

@maple It's still going in the form of the new series (with color, but still updated slowly) but the focus has shifted a lot and you don't really see her nerding out about Amiga anymore.

I would love to see something like the early strips.

@Austin_Dern I'd guess power plug tails are probably the most common kind of "tail that's also a cord" out there. I'd love to see more of them, of all types.
