I only knew one tom, but he was a chill big guy who was usually half-asleep a lot of the time but I guess that still counts as "Liiivelier thaan tis"

Also unsub from and stop engaging with channels who use or react to it

Lovely kitties. And wonderful work on the fabric movement on the dresses

Opposite climate of the Alaskan home I'd love to return to XD Unfortunately my exile is likely to continue indefinitely

Kittens are everywhere and we can’t help them without foster homes to get them safe and socialized and ready for adoption. If you’re in the Newark, DE/Northeastern MD area and you want to be a loving temporary stop for some kittens (or adult cats!) who need a little TLC, DM us!

5 small kittens in various shades of Orange are in a cluttered carport. Two of them are practicing their Wrestlemania moves and three are nursing their exhausted dilute tortie mama.

It's a bit more niche and often tedious. Used to post photography there but slipped out and haven't even logged back in for months

Safe for now because I don't make shorts. Refuse on principal to contribute to the further annihilation of society's attention span

Apart from being insanely top-tier quality, this is also one of the most preciously adorable Starfox things I've ever seen

If I still had my pre-covid income I'd be there

They won't. Opposing a government entails actual risk. Frothing at the mouth as part of a campaign to socially pressure someone online is safe (and even a guaranteed win, usually, since the target will fold under social pressure 99% of the time)

My mother's grandpa made a rocking chair just like the one in the background. We still have it, though no one sits in it as it's 80 or something years old now.

Depiction of a scene from my original series Dreamwar, drawn by @birb-o-fluff.bsky.social Cross-faded version, Mepria's pov version, and Mepria's expression standalone. Scene info in alt text. Other characters & info in previous posts & other socials. #indieseries #IndieAnimation

This would be the second-to-last scene of episode 2, where we see what Mepria sees when she happens to look south-southwest during dusk while at the Sleetfjord harbor. Amidst the withdrawn, disconnected state she has been in since leaving her homeland behind and coming to Denali, she experiences a rare moment of actual surprise and wonder. Here she sees aeroplanes in the sky in-person for the first time.

Since the world Dreamwar is set in is roughly equivalent to the early-mid 1920s, similar to how it was at the time in our reality, the fact that “flying machines” were a legitimate thing that existed had become common knowledge, but things were not yet at a point where everyone had seen them or was used to having them around.

Actually seeing them in-flight herself leads her to inquire to go with Elemme to the airfield where Andim, Ash and Ban are training, and eventually to become a biplane pilot herself as the war begins.

General series info : Taking place in a different world from our own, one where both humans and anthro animals, called "uprights", exist. Set in a timeframe technologically equivalent to the early 1920s, and with a global war looming on the immediate horizon.
Humans are more dominant globally simply owing to fact, in the end, that different human groups can all interbreed while differing species Uprights cannot, so humans almost always had a numbers advantage in most scenarios.
Some nations are equal for all, many are “humans first”, some are “humans only”, and others are either “Uprights first” or “Uprights only.” However, despite the human vs upright angle being the one many governments and their people lean on the most, looking past the supposed “us vs them” solidarity will reveal discrimination between individual races of humans against each other, and likewise between differing upright species.

Designs are fine to me. Falco no longer having that "tiny hint of someone trying to hide their new york accent and almost succeeding but not quite" is inexcusable though

Jet fuel went from around $5 to around $8 because of the Strait of Hormuz shutdown. They have to compensate, but a 60% surge in the upfront ticket price would be a stronger psychological shock so side-items are the chosen route (checked bag fees, wifi price, charging more for adult drinks, etc)

There was this fox who flies around in space, a "Star" fox, if you will, who said something about how stealing souls won't work, you have to be born with one.

It's terrified people doing something they know will get a predictable result. Things in the world & their own lives seem out of their control, but they see the visible proof they can affect the VA's lives, it serves as a way of regaining back some control in life they feel has been taken from them

I only eat Ritter Sport or Milka. Both German (although the giant-sized Milka bars are "technically" made in Austria)

Ash and Ban, secondary characters in my would-be 2D original series Dreamwar. Artwork done by the project's concept artist, the immeasurably talented @birb-o-fluff.bsky.social Info on these 2 in the alt text, other characters and more info in previous posts.

Ash, on the left, is a 22-year-old human, and Ban, on the right, is a 19-year-old cat upright (upright is this world's term for furries/anthros, shorthand for "upright animals").

Both are from the nation of Denali, same as Andim, and are both biplane pilots in their country’s only air squadron alongside him.

Ash is an encouraging and protective person, always wanting to make sure those around him don't feel inadequate or as if they've failed. He is the only family his remaining little brother Moon has left, and while away in the aeroplane squadron, he treats Ban like a little brother as well, much to Ban’s annoyance. He (partly) first became a pilot because his little brother Moon thought it would be the coolest thing.

Ban, meanwhile, is far more “prickly” or non-personable, frequently written off as antisocial, prone to more snide remarks and consistently critical with no filter. He's even against Mepria being allowed into the squadron since she’s a lady. Although the more easily dislikable, Ban is actually on the same “moral page”, and actually the most morally impulsive of the group, having the least amount of hesitancy and near zero aversion to risking himself.
