No one better to test out magical contraceptives for the shop than on your sister. Unfortunately, it seems like the product never took Recast physiology into account!

Don't worry, Angela's more than happy to accept the consequences.

Happy mother's day everyone!

Art by @revadiehard.bsky.social
Siblings, Angela (a short blue cat-like Recast with pink markings on her wrists, forearms, and haunches) and Amelia (a similarly short black-furred opossum-like Recast with thorned horns atop her head and bone tail curled behind her) are mid fuck. Angela has Amelia pinned beneath her, Amelia's legs are raised and spread apart giving Angela ample room plow her sister. Despite this, however, Angela's knot is struggling to fit as the blue Recast looks about ready to pop. A trail of mixed fluids connect between the two from Amelia's spread ass and Angela's heavy, swinging ball sack. Amelia is sat in Angela's lap, the two are snuggling. However, Amelia is very cross with her sister as her belly is swollen across her lap with the fruit of the prior image's labor. Angela is undeniably proud of her work but looks very apologetic as if the consequences were unintended. One of Angela's very large pawmitts strokes the swollen belly while the mouth at the end of her tail (unseen in prior image) gently laps along the other side.

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.

They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.
AI generated content disclosure via Arc Raider's Steam page: The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this: During the development process, we may use procedural- and AI-based tools to assist with content creation. In all such cases, the final product reflects the creativity and expression of our own development team.

Hi there, and welcome to #FridayFucksorSucks, a weekly game with simple rules: guns fuck, or they suck.

This week - the Eibar Ruby. Built in decentralized workshops during the Spanish Civil War they were made VERY quickly for the war effort but lacked truly standardized parts, including magazines.
The gun can be thought of as a Browning style locking mechanism shrunk down. This makes sense, they took a common popular design from twenty years ago and shrunk the round so it would have less recoil force as a safety mechanism. The left side had a lanyard clip so soldiers could tie their pistol to their gear in the event of a hasty retreat. That said, you can also see through these three examples that different makers would finish them basically as they saw fit, which resulted in different shapes and as a result magazines often would not match between different guns, let alone springs and small parts. Decentralized production did have a major advantage though - speed and adaptability. When pistols were needed, they were produced rapidly, and small batches could be made by skilled manufacturers so the BATCHES would be able to share parts. Plus, despite having different shapes, the guns were the same general shape and had the same handling practices. Also, this week I choose an anarchosocialist pistol specifically for my friend and roommate Ariel whose birthday was yesterday. Happy birthday! Ruby pistols were chambered in .32 ACP. A common round in WW1, even back then it was understood to be somewhat anemic and largely requiring either an abundance of impacts or careful aim to truly stop a threat with it. In modern times .32 ACP is considered too weak by pretty much every fighting force.

btw, here's that warning sign on its own....
a warning sign that says "WARNING. There is nothing in this shop worth risking your life to steal. The giant plush is alive. It was made to kill. And it will hurt." There is a graphic of said plush to the right of the warning text.

Social media has flattened every sub culture into an "aesthetic," and then taught people that curating this "aesthetic" is the same thing as being part of a community

And because the queer roots of our community are buried and whitewashed by social media, its a shock when they finally see them

Buried in Michigan's antiporn bill is a provision to effectively outlaw "circumvention tools," such as VPNs.

Mark my words: legislators will increasingly leverage porn panic to restrict or ban VPNs, and to limit internet privacy far beyond adult sites.
Experts raise privacy concerns over Michigan bill targeting pornography and VPNs
Rep. Josh Schriver, the bill’s sponsor, says the law is designed to target only producers and distributors of pornography, not everyday internet users.

Young furries, do not buy this repulsive slop

Support actual furry artists if you want silly furry merch, they're out there and they're happy to oblige, and you won't be feeding a machine looking to capitalize on your subculture

Corporate shitposting needed to be smothered in the crib, istg

BUT HEY!

THAT'S JUST A Segway to remind you that the FNAF creator/this movie's screenwriter, Scott Cawthon, donates the money he makes from FNAF stuff to far right politicians, many of whom are currently trying to make things worse for everyone, specifically trans people. Don't support this film.

Turns out tech darling Framework has decided to follow the techbro pipeline and start partnering with fascists and those who want you and your community dead.

Don't buy framework products. It sucks because sustainable laptops are a good idea but it was always just a dream it seems.

I'm happy to take this opportunity to share this awesome pamphlet made by @xerxes.gay

If my memory serves these have been distributed since at least well over a decade ago.

"Fandom" has always rubbed me the wrong way in relation to furries. The distinction does matter.
FURRY IS NOT A FANDOM How we became radicals, punk rockers, rebels, and a revolutionary subculture without even trying. FANS OF WHAT? We haven't been about Bugs Bunny since the 80's. Comic fandom, Star Trek fandom, video game fandom, they all revolve around the output of an industry. Furry grew out of the absence of corporate products catering to our needs. We weren't happy just watching Disney and Looney Tunes over and over again. So we made our own culture. Furry is not a fandom. It's a scene. We're old-school punk rock, not the Bieber Fan Club. We create our own characters, our own identities, our own images, our own stories. Fandoms have creativity, but it's all riffing off of a product dictated from above. Furry is bottom-up. Everything comes from our ideas, our roleplaying, our experiences, and our culture that we create. Any furry who rises up and attains some kind of celebrity status does just that: they rise up. From us. Those big-name authors and comic artists who sell books at cons are all writing fan fiction of our brains. In a fandom, the fans are there because of the big names. In furry, it's the other way around, and the big names know it. You can go up to almost any "celebrity" furry and make friends the same way you would with any other fur. We're a scene. A culture. A community. A big, global family. There's nothing wrong with fandom, but don't call furry one. Because it's so much more. ANTI-CONSUMERISM In the furry economy, mass-produced products aren't the star of the show. Most of our money isn't spent buying stuff, it's spent creating stuff. We commission artwork, but not to hide it in a bookcase. We put it online to share with the world. Every commission is one furry buying a gift for the whole community. The art gets produced, and now it's there for everyone to enjoy. Even conbadges and avatars - the most utilitarian, "fashion accessory" form of furry art - tend to end up contributed to the commons. Most economies are powered by the idea of replicating a product and selling it over and over again to different consumers. Furry art operates in a radically different way, through making individual contributions to the common wealth of our culture. Think about how subversive that is. Think about how threatening that idea could be to the elite 1% if we could make the whole world run that way. As furries, we're already living it. PACK MENTALITY As furries, we're not afraid to love each other. We'll cuddle no problem, sometimes without even needing to know each other. In public, no less. We can spend a good portion of our convention time just turning off our brains and enjoying the raw, primal feeling of companionship with relative strangers. We never shake hands when we meet new people. It's always a hug. This pervasive feeling of love is what helps us build such a strong community. Local furry groups often become close-knit extended families. We form bonds stronger than blood relation. We put the camraderie of church and religious groups to shame. By putting ourselves into an animal state of mind, we manage to shake off heaping layers of civilization and social conditioning weighing down on us, and connect with each other on a level that's almost unheard of in modern society. SEXUAL LIBERATION Furries aren't afraid to celebrate our sexuality. We're not ashamed of it, like so much of mainstream society. We don't think it's weird to be gay, bi, or straight; to be monogamous, open, or polyamourous; to be reserved about sex, or to be as open as a porn star. We're picking up where the free love hippies of the 60's left off. We challenge the traditional social order about sexuality, rejecting the idea that there's anything "unacceptable" about it. What society might normally condemn as debauchery or pornography, we celebrate as beauty. For some of us, our animal identities are a major part of exploring our own sexuality. For others, only the openness of our community is a factor. But as furries, we all tend to have a much more positive, healthy view of sexuality than the rest of the world. We know that sex is human, it's animal, it's human-animal. FURRY IS RADICAL. FURRY IS SUBVERSIVE. FURRY IS REVOLUTION. We have no audience, because we're all the creators. We have no idols, because we're all on the same level. We have no inhibitions, because love is beautiful. We have no consumerism, because we're all producers. LET'S EMBRACE OUR NATURE AS MISFITS AND REBELS. FURRY PRIDE. SMASH THE MUNDANE. SHARE THIS PAMPHLET WITH ANOTHER FURRY AT THIS CON WHO YOU HAVE NEVER MET. SPREAD THESE IDEAS TO YOUR FRIENDS AND DISCUSS THEM ONLINE. FEEL FREE TO MAKE COPIES OF THIS PAMPHLET AND DISTRIBUTE THEM AT YOUR NEXT CON.
