I finally got my printer to print something - @projectionedge.bsky.social's version of my OC Rocky Ram
Rocky Ram, my OC from SecondLife, drawn beautifully by Thomas K. Dye, @projectionedge.bsky.social ... a cartoony anthro Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep, in a flannel shirt and blue jean shorts, barefoot, and smiling.

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.
The front cover of the graphic novel Circles #1, featuring the six main characters, all Furries living at 6 Kinsey Circle. They're having a picnic on a lawn, with a big city skyline in the background. Borrowed from https://www.fenrispublishing.com/product.php?id=52

If you see this, share a pic from your device with no explanation.

[but I added Alt text, because I'm trying to be good]
A photo of the courthouse in Rushville, Indiana, run through a kaleidoscope filter in Photoshop Elements, which rendered it a round pattern of gray, brown, and blue.

Zombie Hibachi Pla$tic will be my new band's name.
An old newspaper box, black and rusty, outside a store. The original label reads "Detroit Newspapers". It is also marked with graffiti; the phrase at the bottom in white reads "ZOMBIE HIBACHI PLA$TIC". More graffiti is at left but I can't read it. The box is next to a cage of propane tanks.

I made a Ginger Rye tonight, egged on somewhat by @bresnanteddy.bsky.social ... it is good.
A bottle of Vernor's ginger ale, a highball glass of a Ginger Rye, a bottle of Wild Turkey 101, and a small bottle of Angostura orange bitters, lined up left to right on my kitchen counter. Typical kitchen clutter in background.

Rocky found a furry anarchist community! Maybe this is the way to go!

I added alt text to this helpful measles vaccine chart posted by @wolfenred.bsky.social to @tomtomorrow.bsky.social's thread.
A colorful chart with the headline DO YOU NEED A MEASLES BOOSTER? from #DrKimKids. A color-coded arrow is on the left, and text is on the right, which reads: BORN BEFORE 1957 Nope. You were probably already exposed to measles. VACCINATED BETWEEN 1957-1962 Maybe. Check with your doctor. VACCINATED BETWEEN 1963-1967 Yes! The measles vaccine you received is considered ineffective and you will need a booster. VACCINATED BETWEEN 1968-1989 Maybe. Check with your doctor. VACCINATED AFTER 1989 Nope. If you received two doses, your vaccines are considered effected.

I'm ready for the Rachel #Maddow Show, tonight with a cocktail - a Manhattan made from Sazerac rye, Gallo vermouth, orange bitters, and two maraschino cherries (because it's a double) in my Nick & Nora cocktail glass. Yes, I'm getting fancy.
Photo of a double Manhattan cocktail (dark brown color liquid) in a stemmed cocktail glass (Nick & Nora style) with two maraschino cherries looking like a red puddle in the bottom. Cocktail sits on a coaster which is on a cluttered end table (clutter includes a red paintbrush, TV remote, and two thumb drives). In the background is a bookshelf.

I was pouring water for coffee and glanced out the window and there was a brown creeper making its way up the tree! First sighting at my house! #worstbirdpic
Small bird with a mottled brown back and head and white front, creeping up an elm trunk looking for food in the bark. It's a brown creeper. Very zoomed-in cell phone pic on a gray day.

I am not too proud to borrow a family member's cat in a craven attempt to curry favor with the catocracy.
A domestic cat named Marbles, who is uniformly gray from head to base of tail; tail then gradates darker to the tip. Cat is in the loaf position, eyes half-closed, ears up but not especially alert; sitting on the back of a sofa against a plain cream-colored wall.

My #SecondLife avatar got drafted to help with Christmas this year, and all he got out of it was a candy cane. #reindeer #caribou #notRudolph

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. My alma mater's sports mascot Wildcat Willie has always looked kinda off to me, compared to our rival's, Blizzard T. Husky.

Background includes a fireplace, farther back a gazebo and trees. Rocky in back, black & white mountain sheep in a green flannel shirt and blue jeans; Gus in front, gray wolf with blue jeans and a red bandanna tied around his head; sitting at a bar.
