OK, still not returning to regularly posting publicly (that last message was a one-off) but I know more here than on my normie account so...

..."Pokemon Z-A", yay or nay? Was going to hold back in case Game Freak're still being crunched but...thoughts? You can just say yay or nay if just that.

If I ever nameshamed you so people on social media can blacklist you, no matter the context or initial reason...I'm sorry. I thoroughly apologise.

I have put a hard stop to that for a reason. You only so much know about the people you hear about on social media. I don't want to add hurt anymore.
November 6, 2025 at 1:27 PM
I miss when people felt free and excited to explore creative ideas and back the things they want more of in the world, rather than only interact via amplifying mutated baggage transformed to keep hurting people.

I should've better predicted that of course BlueSky will just be Twitter Again.

I truly hate what social media has done to people.

Guy behind FB invented this stuff to stalk the women at his college and it's now the sole way people interact, even while its used to fuel horrible defamation campaigns that do nothing but hurt and hurt and hurt.

Putting these back on! I accidently put a pause do to a downward depression spiral but I'm slowly recovering being out of that enviroment and getting my focus back.

Still taking 5 Slots <3
As I am working on getting the final drawing batch done, have these open to help pay for upcoming rent! Taking only 5 so the work load won't be overwhelming and not as much of a wait!

this is a really good sign, but it's not over until it's over. Germany has flipped before, and we cannot risk it flipping again. Germans, continue to voice your opposition to your MEPs/MPs. likewise, everyone else in the EU should be similarly vocal!

we have 7 more days!
🇩🇪 Germany is AGAINST Chat Control:

Jens Spahn: "We as the CDU/CSU parliamentary group are against indiscriminate monitoring of chats. That would be like preemptively opening all letters to check whether there's something illegal in them. That's not acceptable, that won't happen under our watch."

Even if you are a newer person to the fatfur community, please understand that Fanimal was posting their fat fur work in a cruel and wild internet. The fatfur community would not exist as we know it. We owe them a thank you -- thank you Fanimal.

To their friends and loved ones -- Fanimal was a kind and friendly beacon for many of us who came to the fat fur fandom in the early days. Their work and holding space helped many of us understand more about ourselves, to feel less alone, to not feel so strange. It is a legacy to be proud of.

Found that Fanimal has passed away a month ago. I did not know them well personally, and this isn't a post asking for condolences for me, but I do want to speak to the profound effect they have had in our community and for being someone who made the space for it to exist as fully as it does now.

So...are more than a select few people actually going to use Mastodon after all or is that not happening neither?

I knew BlueSky had already begun just feeling like Twitter 2 but dang, they really are speed-running how to lose the goodwill they got.

Reminds me, I need to work on that site.

Time never pauses. Every second never hesitates. Every moment you dedicate sneering at people who'd never want you safe and wanted is another moment wasted that could've been spent with people you love, things you love, experiencing life itself.

Remember that. Please.

At some point, shaudenfreud took people I cared for so much that I remembered the names of the politicians they dunked on more than their own real names.

You have so much better things to focus on, especially better people. You never know when you'll no longer be with the people you love.

No, I do not support people who would endanger other people's lives.

But I ask...how much energy are you guys wasting focusing on people who likely hate your existence over the people who you love and DO love you in return?

None of this shaudenfreud shit is any help. Live with love.

The irony that I only seem to post when things on BlueSky turn really sour, good intentions or no, isn't lost on me but despite no longer regularly posting, I still feel I have to read this stuff sometimes

And if you're all committing to being locked to this hatecage like you were with Twitter, hey

I despise just how angry everything feels nowadays.

Not that people don't have good reason to when being open and loud on stuff is needed, but more than ever it feels like people are discouraged from watching their own mental energies.

And it's just...crushing after a while. Sorry.
