Music Review!

Pent Up Pup’s, “FURFAG,” is an audacious and unashamed expression of desire. Capturing the unique beauty of kink culture and queer sexuality in the furry fandom. Frankly, I’m gagged, (UwU).

If you like any of the interviews I've published, consider checking out my friend Ash's blog!

He writes media reviews and posts about furry queerness that I might write if I didn't have an adversarial relationship with writing
Status Update!

I've been busy with school, so I don't have much time for reviews. However, I figured this is the perfect opportunity to write about studies into queer history.

This update is focused on contemporary questions for this queer backlash era, from obscenity bills to moral organizations.

“So, that piece there with the kangal dog on the wood, I did that gold leaf halo behind it to kind of deify them because I really do see them as these holy and special critters. I feel like I need to honor them. They’re just so incredible!”

“Can you tell me what's in the middle there?”

“I really like welding and metal sculpting because it’s like candy for all of my senses. There’s the sound, the feeling, there’s the physical aspect of it, there’s the creative flow, and it also taps into my more academic background... I love the chemistry of metal.”

New Interview on The Otter Critic!

A metalworking, fine art sculpture-making furry? It’s more likely than you’d think.

Fuck RFK Jr and everyone who's complicit in giving the quack power, may history piss on his grave when he's gone.

This is my political outburst for today. Stay awesome, neurospicy friends, we will prevail! Back to being a silly otter.

“I really love this idea that through memory there are going to be focal points that are really clear, and then if you move towards the edges, things sort of fall into this white space.”

“...the art side, the painting side of my art journey, if you want to call it that, started out as kind of a way to de-stress from the PhD… I think me and my undergrad helpers probably measured—I think I counted this out once—probably 10,000 trees over the course of the project.”

New Interview on The Otter Critic!

@animalshapes.bsky.social and I talked about their beautiful, soft paintings of creatures escaping into landscapes! We discussed fantasy and sci-fi, memories, and why it’s so hard to tell which of his characters are him or an adventurer from another realm!
