anyway, these are very good books and i very much recommend them. they are fun to read, use simple english, but still manage to go super into detail. and they're less than 500 pages long each

the last time i read a fiction book was like 15 years ago. and it was stephen king's the stand, extended edition. i'd like to consume more fiction content, especially horror, but then it'd eat into my time learning SCIENCE!!! things.

i don't know if it's being too alarmist to call it brainwashing but it certainly felt that way. i'd share things that didn't personally bother me but some random post with 10k shares said i should care, so i did. but it was just their personal grievance intrusive thoughts that were sort of nonsense

its so upsetting to me that people fall for this shit. part of why i stopped using social media so much was i noticed i started parroting stuff i didn't *actually* believe when i assessed it properly. it was just shares being in huge numbers lended it legitimacy and i was like yeah fair enough

the last time this guy had a ref sheet was 20 years ago 🫠 #art #illustration #furryart artofhyaline.tumblr.com

A reference sheet of an anthropomorphic monster character. He is 47 human years old and is a bidirectional hermaphrodite, but is male most of the time. He is 6 foot 8 inches from his three toed feet to the tips of his large bat-like ears. He has a face shaped like a canine, but has two sets of four glowing eyes and two sets of tusks - one set is further back in his mouth and they curve inwards towards each other and upwards, the other set is further forward in his mouth and curve down and outwards. He has waist-length blonde hair with a fringe. He is lanky, and his skin is three tones of brown - the lightest area is his undersides. The darkest markings are stripes that appear to mark where seams would be if he were a plush animal. He has one thumb and three long fingers per hand, with the middle finger being the longest, used to fish out bugs from hard to reach places. His tail is long and has a bulb on the tip of it that glows the same colour as his eyes. He is wearing loose fitting green and brown clothes, and is holding a cigarette.

Disc Horse is a bot that mashes together semi-random words/phrases to create fake inflammatory/expression-of-grievance social media posts (called "discourse" in online parlance, sometimes also jokingly rendered as "disc horse"). Long story short, it's supposed to be a joke.

There's a lot we don't know about AltNPS. Their real name, for example. Their nationality. How long they've controlled the account. But there's a surprising amount that we DO know about the Alt National Park Service 🧵:

Alt National Park Service: Not all echoes are meant to return. The lights flicker not from power loss, but memory. When the clock chimes out of rhythm and the sky hums a little too low, you’ll understand what wasn’t written. Some birds don’t migrate—they vanish.

this is an oversimplification of a complicated problem, and i'm not counting the times people have said something that could be misinterpreted that way ("micro aggressions" only exist if you think you can read minds). but case in point, the gender war is stupid and radfems are part of the problem

Self-made Skeleton @machinesbleedtoo.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

you know what i, as an androgynous trans masc guy, has to deal with? transphobia, misogyny and misandry. it depends on what gender people perceive me as at the time. very frequently men are cunts to me if they think i'm a woman, and women are cunts to me if they think i'm a man.

Self-made Skeleton @machinesbleedtoo.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

people who think trans men have male privilege are conveniently ignoring the fact that 1) LOTS still get assumed female, 2) they still need reproductive care, which is harder as a trans masc because you're shunned for being a dude and they pretend not to know shit about your body. etc etc. i'm tired

Self-made Skeleton @machinesbleedtoo.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

i try not to get mad about this in public because every time i do 5 transfemmes block me and it just makes me angrier about the whole ordeal but idk, it needs to be said sometimes

Self-made Skeleton @machinesbleedtoo.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

just saw a LGBT kink night event that costs $20 more if you present "masc". i am so sick of this transandrophobia shit. we don't have male privilege on account of being trans you dipshits

Just saw Mulan for the first time in years and realized that in the beginning of the movie, she wastes an entire sack of chicken feed on like a half dozen chickens in one morning. Absolutely irresponsible. She'd have bankrupted the family if that war hadn't started.

Three nails and teeth characters - vr'ev'jk (top), amzarah (bottom left), and raieill (bottom right). They are basically all my 'sonas. I made this so I can make business cards, wahoo #art #OCs #illustration #furryart

A drawing of three monster characters surrounded by a border of angular leafless trees. In the background is a sky that fades from blue to red, and a blue eclipse ring between the large bat-like ears of one of the monsters. He is brown, has long blonde hair, and has two sets of large curved tusks, and 8 glowing yellow eyes. Below him to the left is a green-furred monster with large seashell-like ears and glowing orange "fire" projections coming out from their eyes, with a halo and wings made of the same substance. the wings are glitching out. To the right of them is a blue and teal monster with large purple curved horns, short blonde hair, a creepy grin with too many teeth, and a shark-like fin on his back. Behind him is a bunch of white roses. There is a long piece of red string that drapes across all three of them and is held in their mouths. There is a banner underneath the artwork that reads "Machines Bleed Too" in scratchy text.

thinking without actual practice turns your opinion into an object of art: it might be pretty, even edgy and challenging to the audience, but not necessarily useful

last time i had a store i limited myself too much in subject matter. so i'd like to not do that this time. the problem is i'm not very creative unless it's creature design, and even then i rely too much on science to guide me on decisions. maybe related to aphantasia, idk

Hello!! i have been made redundant and i need money while i look for work, so commissions are open. Starting at 70AUD. boosts appreciated 💖 All the info you need is here: sites.google.com/machinesblee... Alternatively you can support me here: ko-fi.com/machinesblee... #art #commissions

An artwork of a black creature that has four arms and fluro turquoise teeth, inner ears, and blood. It has a turquoise halo. It has a deranged grin on its face and square turquoise featureless eyes. It has severed hands, head and spine bones, all floating above where they are separated, as if held by magic. The background is bright pink and features a crescent moon that is yellow and has spikes protruding from the outer edge. The artwork has a grainy and glitchy quality to it by using chromatic aberration and noise filters.

A sketchy coloured drawing of a dark skinned elf. he has white hair with a long fringe, yellow eyes, and is wearing gold and silver armour with a gold and green sword resting on his back. you are looking at him from his side, but his eyes are turned towards you. in the background is a full red moon.

a painting of a creature with a wooden bird mask that is emitting plumes of fire from its mouth and rectangle eyes. The fire is mixing with a sickly green smoke that is flowing between its fingers. It has antlers made of tree branches with reddish pink flowers lining them. The roots of these flowers are climbing down the antlers and into the creature's mask eye sockets.

A painting of a humanoid canid creature with a manic grin is standing with its head playfully tilted. Two hands are raised to the sides of its head. Its second set of hands are clasped at its stomach where rows of teeth line its middle. It has orange restraints on its black masked face and its rectangle ears and eyes emit orange stringy lines that flow back into a giant orange halo behind it.

vr'ev'jk ref WIP, wahoo #art #furryart

A drawing of a bipedal monster with no fur, a canine-like face, bat-like ears, two sets of tusks, and long blonde hair. He has a long snake-like tail with a glowing orb on the end of it. His skin is brownish pink, dark brown, and light yellow, arranged in vertical stripes around his body. He looks agitated and is smoking a cigarette.

Pictish carving of a dog-headed man, known as the ‘Mail Stone’. Possibly dating to the late C7th or early C8th, the carving was found by a grave digger at Mail cemetery, Cunningsburgh, Shetland in 1992. Part of the collections at Shetland Museum & Archives 📸 My own #FindsFriday
