I've been working on an edit of The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023) for a while now-- because I thought it was a great film that was completely ruined by Chris Pratt. So I removed him from the movie, and it's so much better for it!! I've just released this edit […] [Original post on plush.city]

post your fursona and let people assume things about them!

A colored digital illustration of a dragon plush! They look very soft with visible seams along dark grey felt-like fabric, covered in orange tiger-like stripes. Their eyes are orange as well, and their messy purple hair is parted by two small horns and a pair of giant triangular ears. Their tail, which is almost the size of their body, curls behind them to the left, showing off the tag showing washing instructions, as is proper for a plush . They look very happy to see you, and have their arms up like they're offering you a hug!

This may be one of the best ✨plush✨ designs I've ever seen :blob_aww: :blobcheerbounce: The Duchess of Hampershire! www.sigikid-usa.com/collections/bea…

Imagine if a cartoon dog that looked like someone stuffed an ice cream cone and googly eyes on a throw rug, stuck its tongue out and flopped on any surface you set it on.

That's what this plush looks like. So soft and snuggly looking, and so very silly!!

Hey #MastoAdmin! Here's an update for my Embiggen Emojos CSS hack with zoom support, updated for Mastodon 4.3.0 (now with bigger emojos!) :blobcheer: pastebin.com/Hy2vFBFT

A screenshot of a post from @mawr@plush.city which displays a zoomed in emoji (blobboing) and several larger emojis below it. Text of post follows.

Okay and because the new interface has way bigger text, | made the emojos EVEN BIGGER :blobboing:

And hopefully fixed the overflow clipping error in a way that doesn't break other things :bloboh:

I'll keep putzing as | have time :blobowo:
