Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
A comic of three colourful foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green, and the third one is little blue, big blue's little brother. In this one, the shading is slightly sharper and brighter than in normal reality, as Blue, Green, and Blue's brother are playing a videogame.
Green: Just to warn you too, I have never played a videogame in my life.
Baby Blue: Yeah, I know.

Both Blue and his brother freeze in horror as Green turns around to look at a cute little purple potato on the ground. The potato has eyes, and is looking right back at Green. A health bar has appeared above Green, and another one beneath the little potato. The potato's health bar is significantly larger than Green's.
Green: A "healthbar" means it's aggressive, right?

Blue and his brother watch in horror as Green runs off.
Blue: Stop running into more of them!
Green: I'm trying to run away!

Blue and his brother watch in mild disappointment as something unseen but clearly unsavoury happens to Green outside of the panel's view. A text appears above them, saying "<Green_Fox has died of making bad choices>"

Spooky bird stories. My Halloween comic from 2024.
A comic titled Spooky Bird Stories. In panel 1, a turkey vulture is telling stories to other vultures, and it says, "She walked toward the source of the terrible smell. She got closer and closer, and then, to her horror, she saw... No dead body." A black vulture says "No!" and a turkey vulture says "Did someone already eat it??" In panel 2, a northern cardinal is telling a story to some songbirds. It says "They peered through the windows of the house at the gory scene. Zombies had smashed through the door in the night. The homeowner was dead. But worst of all... He hadn't refilled the feeders." An eastern bluebird says "Aaah!" and an American goldfinch says "It can't be!". In panel 3, A screech owl is telling a story to other owls. It says "And then the ghost fluffed itself up really big to appear scarier." A saw-whet owl gasps, and a long-eared owl says "Horrifying!". In panel 4, a downy woodpecker is telling a story to other woodpeckers, and says "The eerie sound rang through the dark woods. Tap-tap. Tap-tap. It was the distinctive two-part knock of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker. The species had returned from the dead... FOR REVENGE." A red-cockaded woodpecker says "Yesss".

At the Antimatter Factory at CERN there are vacuum cleaners in cages. Those cages are there because when you vacuum the experiment hall, you might pick up some radioactive material, and so the vacuum has to be in a time out until enough half-lives of the contaminant have elapsed.

That parts of the internet are already busy being nasty about Dolly Parton of all people shows so starkly how much the snuffing out of any positive, kind, pro-social feeling has become a bedrock, load-bearing industry. If they can’t totally monetize your heart, they’ll happily monetize rotting it.

Reposting with alt text because it's really good stuff
Three extremely grumpy looking fluffy black and white kittens. Text alongside posted by Mansfield Cat Rescue:
 
It appears we've once again acquired a collection of feral kittens who have absolutely no idea they're only 500g and look like they've been assembled from fluff and bad decisions.
So, we're looking for feral kitten fosterers.

Requirements include:
• Being shouted at by something smaller than your slipper.
• Accepting that every meal is apparently a hostage negotiation.
• Remaining calm while a kitten with all the physical presence of a teabag attempts to convince you it's a tiger.
• Not expecting "thank you" from tiny individuals whose only hobbies are hissing, glaring and committing crimes against your hands.

These kittens arrive with all the social graces of a drunk bloke outside Wetherspoons at closing time. Your job is simply to convince them that people aren't, in fact, the enemy.

It takes patience, a sense of humour, and the ability to ignore being judged by someone who only learned to use a litter tray last Tuesday.

The payoff? Watching a tiny, furious gremlin gradually realise that chin scratches, warm beds and regular meals are actually rather lovely, before heading off to a forever home as a completely different cat.
