I am figuratively stuck between a rock and a hard place with software dev. AI is being pushed so insanely hard in software development, anyone not familiar and using it is basically being cut, or will be in the near future.

Cancelled stream last night due to not feeling it, and finally getting to spend time with some wonderful beans I rarely get to (schedules don't usually line up). Definitely was worth it, thank you <3

I swear it feels like things are going backwards. Remember when the mantra was "tech will make everything easier/faster?" Like, back in the 60s to 80s? Now we have devices that need your email to advertise at you, wifi access, app, updates, and likely credit card... to turn on a light. *sighs*

If you want a wonderful Community, lift people up who deserve recognition. Celebrate people for trying. Encourage folks to keep going even if they are not where they want to be yet. Let's make a better future by doing right today

Ah, no, I meant does he design and create those worlds. But cool that he doesn't use them for his videos!

Does he work on MDM worlds? Just curious - I don't go to them myself but they're basically YCH for Music Vids on VRC, if you're not familiar.

For reference, I was making apple cinnamon tea, and brown sugar is the right choice for sweetener, much like an apple pie.

How I know engineering was the right choice for me: *Pours brown sugar from a bag* Hm, I guess I cut this opening too small. Wait, I wonder what the correct aperture size is to get enough flow rate while preventing excessive "all at once" output? ...yeah.

I tried Moss in VR the other day and I don't think I can describe how much more beautiful it is to be immersed in the world instead of staring at it on a flat screen. Even from a stationary viewpoint, you can look around, move closer or further.. it's wonderful. Highly recommend.

Ever have a day where you're at work and excited about a hobby, so you research a bunch of stuff for it in prep to work on said hobby that night... then by the time you're home you're so burnt out that you just want to crawl in bed and curl up under the blankets and hide? That was my day today.

I have a few friend groups in VRC, and my partner has a gaming group that just chatters randomly while playing different game worlds. I prefer quieter worlds personally. Movie nights or just beautiful scenery to relax in. I used to do desktop too. I'd be happy to hang out with you. ^^

Look idk who needs to hear this cause I've seen alot of artists over the years dig this exact hole, but you need to finish your commissions. A percentage of your clients are going to be repeat commissioners. Another percentage of your clients heard about you from word of mouth. 🧵

There you have it.
so, (barely) reading between the lines of what Twitch's staff said:

1) they were forced by Amazon to add the AI training setting and to make it opt-out, because the overlords know perfectly well there's no reason anyone would ever opt-in

2) the actual Twitch staff who run Twitch do not like this and are of the same mind about it as all of you

3) Taking the time to opt-out, even if you don't really stream, gives them data to take to meetings with their overlords to prove that Twitch users dislike AI and pushing it too hard will drive people from the site.

Finished the moving jaw overlap so I will be airbrushing soon! I plan to record everything for Patreon so keep an eye out there if you want to see the process. It's been a while since I've blended eye mesh so I'm especially excited to work on that part. :D #fursuit

Honestly with how Twitch is going, looking at alternatives may be a good idea, regardless. I have considered it with its stance on NSFW, but I also feel that may dilute the audience without doing NSFW content yourself. Some people will also refuse to (or can't) move because it has NSFW at all.

I didn't realize others were aware of the dropshipping issue. At AC someone was selling thigh bags for $50... which I promptly found for less than 10.

I'm still working on the moving jaw overlap but I did get the right side done and wanted to share! She'll look totally different air rushed, but the shapes and trimming came out super smooth so it'll be satisfying to paint. :D #fursuitfriday

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 07/08/2026
A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, we watch as very shoddily drawn sketchy Green fox slowly comes together, becoming progressively more recognisable.

 Shoddy, sketchy Green fox stares in deep confusion as the ambiguous shape of Blue asks him an incomprehensible question.
Blue: [unintelligible words]?
Green: What?

Becoming clearer, Blue looks at Green, who is still thrown off, but now looks almost completely like himself.
Blue: I asked if you just woke up.
Green: Oh. No, not yet.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is pinned against the floor, strapped down with some kind of leather straps, a Green sits beside him.
Green: Do you feel safely restrained now?
Blue: Yep!

Gently, Green places a muzzle over Blue's face.
Green: A muzzle so you won't accidentally bite me.

Satisfied with his work, Green looks at Blue.
Green: Are you ready for your eye drops?

Blue taps the floor twice with his tail.
Green: ...Two taps for "yes."

Don't be like me. Don't think "I don't want to spend 2+ years learning a skill I'll probably stop using after I get bored of it." And then 2+ years later, think exactly the same thing. For like, 2 decades. Do the things. No time like the present. It's a gift, after all.
