Trying to find ease within anthropy.

This is a great idea, and i highly recommend it.

I've been doing it since i read this 2010 Wondermark comic:

Today marks 68 years since the day spacecraft Sputnik 2 carried Moscow street dog Laika, also known as Kudryavka, into Earth orbit, where she died.

I had the opportunity to draw this fridge magnet marker portrait of her.

You didn't ask to go, nor deserved what happened. Rest in peace, first dog.

Speciesqueer Pride Flag

The colours of the flag take inspiration from both the Genderqueer flag, by @marilynroxie.bsky.social (2011), and the Nonhuman Unity flag, by @coyote.tel (2020).

The sinusoidal geometry of the flag references the shape of the DNA double helix.

This design is free for use.

Today i learned that in early drafts of "The Lion King", Scar's minions were Cape hunting dogs (African wild dogs) rather than hyenas.

Postcard, and my favourite cereal is Cereal Killer from the 1995 classic "Hackers".

How my midlife crisis went.

"Post a movie you like with a terrible Rotten Tomatoes score."

I cannot *believe* they did "Hackers" this dirty.

Honorable mention for "Event Horizon" and "Underwater", because i am a complete sucker for deep space / deep sea horror.

Got myself some fancy cheeses as a treat.

I've never had Red Leicester before. I got this one mainly because of the cute red fox branding, but it's really good! Rich, just slightly crumbly, crystalline, sharp, creamy, smokey.
Delicious.

2015 vs 2025

Then: A year of rebuilding after cataclysmic life events, dramatic personal change, growth, and transition to a more authentic identity.

Now: A year of rebuilding after cataclysmic life events, dramatic personal change, growth, and transition to a more authentic identity.

Damn.

Spotted at the local tea shop.

Disappointed to find out it's a game about timelines instead of romancing monsters.

Special thanks to @hamstertoybox.bsky.social for sending the package over via certified werewolf to wild dog mail.

Look what just arrived in the mail!

Shirt artwork by the amazing @wolfskulljack.bsky.social, for the also amazing wolfwatch.uk, home to the goober Bosch, the melodious Anja, the elusive Rickon, and all the other wolves who've passed through their care over the years.

Thank you for the work you do.

Decided to decompress with a coffee lunch after that, at a place called The Backyard Café.

We were blessed with the presence of this lovely cat.

Back to camp with sunset, to have dinner and relax by the fire.

The moon was very bright.

A waterbok on the way back to camp, with its distinctive white-circled butt.

We saw more impalas, zebras, elephants, and blue wildebeest.
August 9, 2025 at 9:08 PM
We ran into a small herd of elephants coming our way.

When they take over the road, you just reverse until they decide to go off it.
August 9, 2025 at 8:54 PM
We saw giraffes, and kudu.
August 9, 2025 at 8:47 PM
We almost immediately spotted a wild dog in the distance: a collared male, quickly followed by two more.

They were silent, and focused on looking for a hunt. We were lucky enough to see them pause close by.

A minute or two later they were gone again, disappearing silently into the bush.

Kruger visit day 3 highlights thread!

We were up early and out before dawn again. It paid off.
August 9, 2025 at 8:43 PM
Ended the day off with a sunset, dinner, and some good Painted Wolf wine.
August 7, 2025 at 3:59 AM
We saw buffalo, more giraffes, warthogs, elephants, zebras, and did i mention rooibokke?

Kudu! Majestic!
