a strange idea that came to me: what if furry musicians united and made some kind of furry label cooperative that publishes music made by furries for free. what if they have a channel with music videos or tracks, like cloudkid/lithuania hq or trap nation for example. like i think it would be cool

I like this quote:

“The problem is that electric cars are popular with politicians precisely because they provide an excuse to avoid doing harder things, like rebuilding our cities, or changing the habits of lifetimes. Persuading people to switch from their old gasoline car to a shiny Tesla is much easier than persuading them that they can live without a car. Hence governments are pushing electric cars, often with incentives that make no sense.” - Daniel Knowles, author of Carmageddon

"The Data Protection and Digital Information Bill will rip up hard-won privacy protections. This will not only harm UK citizens, but also the rights of Europeans living inside and outside of the UK."

Today marks my 4 year's anniversary of moving to The UK, to live with a group of friends I have known for quite while prior.
Four years later, I still live here, and our relationship are growing stronger for each day that passes.

This has been long time in the making. And I am thrilled that it actually came to fruition.

Happy squeak and the wish of cheese for everyone who would like some*.

*due technically reasons, only virtual and imaginary cheese can be offered at this time

I see the old “too many people are going to university to do Mickey Mouse degrees” trope is doing the rounds again. My son did a degree in Comedy Writing and Performance. Did he get a job in the creative industries? No. Is he earning a good salary? Also no. But he was greatly enriched by studying something he was passionate about for three years. What is wrong with just learning for learning’s sake? Education is not supposed to be merely a mechanism for churning out workers

Boy, nothing says welcome to mastodon like a bunch of accounts announcing you’ll be gone in a minute, scolding you for taking so long to leave Twitter, or pretending there’s nothing frustrating about signing up to a place that has different rules than you’re used to.

Cut the new arrivals some slack, people.

New folk, you’re very welcome. Most of us are kind and friendly. You’ll get the hang of it! #Welcome #WelcomeToMastodon

Shattering the myth of men as hunters and women as gatherers

https://phys.org/news/2023-06-shattering-myth-men-hunters-women.html

"They found that women hunt in 79% of the analyzed societies, regardless of their status as mothers. More than 70% of female hunting appears to be intentional—as opposed to opportunistic killing of animals encountered while performing other activities, and intentional hunting by women appears to target game of all sizes, most often large game."

Lakeside fursuiters!

My fav spot for photographing fursuits at ConFuzzled is by the lake. Here’s an assortment of different critters I’ve taken down there for pics over the years.
This is an expansion of a collage I originally made in 2018, to which I’ve added 15 more pics.

What kind of history do you write for your world?
