"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence" is just a fancy way of saying "stupid people do evil things too".

Wolves from Ox Tales / The Tales of Boes' Gang. They're singing the most beautiful song you've ever heard.

On a dark night in the forest, with a giant full moon behind them, two wolves are sitting on a tall rock, their snouts pointing upwards making toony silhouettes.

One of the wolves stands ready, both chunky fingers in the air, while the other wolf sits in wait, eyes half open.

The standing wolf is now reaching upwards with both fingers, directing the wolf on the right to sing a high note with all its might. The singing wolf stretches far with its snout, eyes closed and in full focus, little fangs visible around its open mouth.

The wolf on the left gives a proud thumbs up with both hands, the wolf on the right seeming to be proud of itself in turn. Both wolves are wearing beaming smiles, and their noses are both shining in the moonlight.

His name is Ivan, and I love him. He's from Red Riding Hood's Wolf, by Kikuo, as expertly animated by Art_Mosquito on YouTube. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhUj...

The first of four screenshots to the music video for「赤ずきんの狼」with Ivan the Big Bad Wolf looming over one of the Three Little Pigs. The mostly-black-and-white and sketchy, cartoony wolf has big and angry eyes, a round and shiny nose, sharp and pointy teeth, and a pink tongue hanging out of his mouth. The little pig is very scared.

Ivan is hiding behind a crooked bus stand, with only his front half poking out from behind it. He has a crazed look in his eyes, his hands grip the sign with sharp claws, and his mouth is contorted in a big, toothy smile.

Ivan creeps behind Little Red Riding Hood, who is carrying a basket of goodies, and has a goat's chin showing through the front of her hood, and curly horns poking out of the top. The hood itself is bright red, standing out from the black-and-white backdrop, even brighter than Ivan's pink tongue, which is hanging out of his crazy, intense, shark-toothed smile. In this screenshot, it's more clear that Ivan is wearing an old-school, cartoony, single-strapped pair of overalls, and his toes are visible to have claws as sharp as his fingers.

A close-up of Ivan's face, with his big, cartoony wolf snout front-and-centre. His early-era cartoony eyes are upturned and excited, his furrowed brow and grinning face making it clear he's very hungry. His snout has to turn upwards to fit in the frame, and you can see spots and whiskers, as well as the fluff of his chest at the bottom of the frame.

Facesitting, watersports, and fisting was banned in online porn in the UK in 2014. People protested at the time. ( www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbea... ) These were only legalised again in 2019. There's precedent for reversing laws like these, with resistance and pushback.

I've never actually properly celebrated my birthday before, other than buying the odd gift for myself. Last weekend, I got to spend it around friends who care about me and wanted to be around me, and I've never felt more grateful for the people I know. Thank you for being kind, funny, and genuine.

I'd like to spend 2026 being more sociable again. I should hang out in voice calls and in VRChat more, and get to know people better.

Last night, I saw people posting about furries who falsely accuse others of crimes, and how false allegations make things harder for real victims. The people who said that are right. It made me realise I'm not being loud enough about my own experience of being falsely accused of stalking last year.

Had to make a painful decision adding someone to my blocklist today. Then I think about how a group of people have been stalking and harassing me for 16 months because I broke up with one of their friends 3 years ago, and I remember exactly why I can't reason with any of them.

One thing I haven't acknowledged until recently is how much my brain fog has got worse in the last few years. Even little things like my talking speed, or how long it takes me to understand what people are saying to me. I'm slower than I used to be. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little worried.

I'm gonna try drawing from time to time, and see if I'm still drawing by this time next year. 1.

🏳️‍⚧️ I came out as nonbinary/genderfluid when I was 17, and that's half my life ago now. For those of you who have made me and my trans siblings feel safe around you, thank you. Not all of us have access to the safety we need right now. Community, and the support it brings, is vital to us all.

Art I commissioned from @gammaraz.bsky.social - I'm very happy with this one. Really does the size of my nose justice. I might use this as an image on my Twitch streams one day. #furryart

People have been checking up on me on Discord while I've been recovering, and I wanted to say thank you. I've been feeling a little better each day. I really feel like I have friends who care about me, and want to see me get better. Knowing they've been on my side the whole time keeps me going. 🐺💕

I've been told that the guy who falsely accused me of stalking him last year lost his job after stealing from the cash register, and I can't say I'm surprised. It's never just one thing with these people.

Before May, Aster and I had been close friends for years. Some of our mutual friends, I had been around for over a decade. They were my inner circle of friends. A few weeks ago, I was made aware of false allegations he was making against me in private, as well as in this vague post. I trusted him.

I was given a list of people involved in this harassment campaign against me at the start of November. I still think they can say what they want about me behind my back as long as they leave me alone. But I think some of those on that list should be doing more to stop the others from harassing me.

I recreated my Telegram to reserve my earfolds username, but Discord is still my preferred platform to chat. I'm always open to friend requests, too. 🐺

I've had a lot of reasons to be grateful this year, but one thing that will always make me feel good is having friends who invite me to do fun things with them. I've always been really bad at asking to hang out, but I've been made to feel welcome and appreciated, and I just wanted to say thank you.

Doubters will say this isn't real, but don't let that stop you. 🐺🔍

A photo of a wolf taken from a confusing perspective. The wolf is much closer to the camera than the two huts in the background. However, the perspective makes it appear that the wolf is towering over the huts instead. The wolf is staring at the viewer and licking their lips.

I read this post written by someone telling their story of being ostracised, and it's helped me a lot with understanding my own feelings. I know I'm not the only person who's dealt with social exclusion, the silent treatment, and being bullied in adulthood, so if reading this helps another person..

At SGDQ 2017, I donated to tell a joke about wolves, and it's still one of my favourite things I did. (Spoiler: Back in 2017, I was pretty big into Rubik's cubes, so they were on my mind when I wrote the joke. I still have my cube, but I haven't used it in a while.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsCb...

I've been debating whether to bring this up, but I don't think I should just accept that one of ohmyrichard's Twitch/Discord mods made multiple Bluesky accounts named "earfoldsabuser" and "pleasegettherapy" to harass me with. I've been blocking metaecho every time they show up, but it's relentless.

I don't think I could have predicted anything this year. I started 2024 alone in hospital with appendicitis. My appendix survived. I'm ending it feeling more loved, and valued, than I've felt in ages. Bad things happened this year, but good things did, too. Thank you for helping make it better. 🐺

Tonight's VRChat session brought back memories of exploring worlds in Second Life and finding secrets. I had a great time. I saw a few names of people I haven't spoken to in years, but I still feel nervous about approaching people. Still, it's pretty nice to share a world with furries I remember. 🐺

Lightning Bolt's "Ride the Skies" was one of my favourite albums growing up as a teenager. I was reminded of it the other day so I'd like to share my favourite song from it. Underrated album, and a pretty fun and frenetic song that plays with time and meter a bunch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wW2U...

I've always felt anxious joining voice chats, even going back to the Mumble/Teamspeak and Skype days. But I've always felt welcomed when I join them. I hope, eventually, my brain will realise that, and stop feeling so nervous about it. 🐺
