Another piece of art done and I'm fairly certain the one that'll cement Sirah's design for good

ZeFie is a little digital familiar, something like a summon created mixing magic and technology (if I understood that correctly).

A very fun character to work with, I like that she's small and also something between a rabbit and an otter hehe.
I added some light sparkles over her fur, so she looks a little more digital ​

Rejoice, it's #FursuitFriday!

Can we appreciate for a minute that at some point great people came together and created top tier free software that in the past would cost you thousands of dollars?

Got around to making an actual reference sheet for our favorite linux fox (at least, for how I draw her~)

One of my absolute favourite deep sky objects: Messier 81 & 82

Messier 82 and 82 a dynamic pair of galaxies in the constellation Ursa Major. Gravitationally bound to one another, they dance amidst gaseous filaments of neutral hydrogen stripped from each other from past close encounters.

Messier 81, also known as Bode’s Galaxy, is a bright spiral galaxy proudly twirling its arms around its pale amber nucleus. It’s the largest in its group.

Messier 82, the smaller of the pair, has absorbed so much interstellar gas that it’s led to a profusion of star-forming activity within its galactic nucleus. This activity has given rise to a strong galactic wind that spews knotty filaments of neutral hydrogen and nitrogen from its centre, partially obscuring the brilliance of its nucleus. Its distorted shape is a direct result of a close encounter with its partner Messier 81.

I would be remiss not to mention that there’s a third member of this galactic dance: the small elliptical galaxy NGC 3077. Nothing more than a faint smudge a bit above M81, NGC 3077 is just as connected by those fine gaseous filaments and the allure of each other’s gravity.

The Messier 81 group is among the brightest galactic groups in the night sky and are a favourite among amateur astronomers. If you’re ever in the northern hemisphere and have a friend with a good-sized telescope, peering through the eyepiece at this duo is a sight to behold. It’s a favourite of mine whenever I bring out my telescope on a dark winter night.

Folks in the #UK, my old colleague Dr. Adrian Bowyer is running a petition:

"New rules for manufacturers of medical device implants

We believe it should be made illegal for manufacturers of medical devices implanted into patients to regularly charge the patient for upgrades or maintenance."

It also calls for "IP" to be released if a manufacturer fails. I feel this subject is important enough to ask you to disseminate the link. Thank you.

Here's your irregular reminder that:

Twitter was a multi-billion dollar company with thousands of employees.

Mastodon is a niche hobbyist product run by volunteers

The fact that we're being seen as a viable alternative to them is an admission that a federated, decentralized future is not only possible, but desirable.

Mastodon is not one thing, or one place. It's a network of many things and many places. We don't have a spokesperson (I mean, there's me. I'm the official spokesperson for 💯 of the fediverse, but beyond me there is no spokesperson) we don't have consensus on moderation or blocking or tools or what is good and what is bad. Some of us are professional SREs and Sysadmins, some of us aren't. Some of our instances have been around for 5+ years, some won't be here in six months.

And that's good! All of it, every last bit of it is good.

We're wrestling power away from the billionaire class, in real time, and reclaiming it for the People.

Does anyone own a genuine rail departure display we could set up at the EMF exit gate showing trains from Ledbury station?

Take my paw?

I am once again telling you that I really want to be Wagon from ToQGer

Seriously though wow thinking about being her makes me so warm and fuzzy and happy!! ❤️​

Furry fandom owes a great debt to the late Mark Merlino. My flight path, and those of countless others before and after, is simply not the same without his effort to build community, establish the first furry convention, and preserve its history.

The only words that come to mind are "thank you".
