FurAffinity is not a perfect site, but it is absolutely where my primary source of income came to be. I owe this site my life and livelihood and it should continue to exist. It's run by real people. It's against AI. It's against NSFW censorship. It has the largest repository of furry art. It works.

Please keep talking about Palestine! This is awesome news, it gives so much hope. More of this! Artists everywhere, big and small, must use their voices now more than ever. Our struggles are directly connected.

New goal on my ko-fi! (purchases from my shop will still be going to my sister for the rest of the year, the goal only updates with commissions and direct donations)

a screenshot of a ko-fi goal that reads:
Updated iPad. 0% of £190 goal.

I use my iPad for a lot of my art. The one I currently have is 8 years old and while it still just about does the job it has barely any storage left and there are things I'd like to do and make that I can't do without getting a better iPad. I'd like to get an iPad Air 3 from CEX; the one I'm looking at is B grade but has x4 the storage space of my current one! It also has a bigger screen and weighs a little less.

An update from my sister 💜

Thank you all so much for donating so far, your donations have meant we will not loose our home this month ❤️ unfortunately I am having to go through ACAS to resolve my work dispute and it will be a long time before I can get any meaningful updates on it. We have applied for universal credit and I have job applications on the go but still no luck with securing work. On the bright side my recovery from surgery has gone really well. Unfortunately we are having to go private for a second opinion as we feel the NHS ignored key information that would help make a diagnosis. We are hoping just a consultation will be enough for a diagnosis which will be £300 max.

I just want to thank everyone again for their donations big and small. We have been able to buy groceries and again, not loose out home. Next month we should hopefully be getting extra support from UC but still no idea how much, we expect not much as my husband is in work, so we still really need anything we can get until I can secure a job. Thank you all so much ❤️

Theres a post on tumblr that theorises that Jolene is the angel if death. Ive been meaning to draw it for ages, and now felt like a good time. #dollyparton #ripdollyparton #jolene #digitalart

Digital art of Dolly Parton and Jolene. Jolene is the angel of death, with literal flaming hair, emerald eyes, pale skin and large grey wings with white star-like speckles. She's wearing a mottled black robe and holding her hand out to Dolly. Dolly is stepping towards her, wearing a flowing pink robe. Dolly says "Jolene?" and Jolene responds "C'mon Dolly, your mans waitin' for you"

Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people

how about my new bug d12s for #InverteFest?!

a wood d12 resting in a nook on a piece of rotting tree stump. it's laser engraved with a super detailed illustration of a cicada and a teeny tiny number 12. also visible are the 2 side, a praying mantis; the 9 side, a snail; and the 10 side, a grasshopper

now the d12 is down in a patch of dead cut grass (next to some lovely green clover) because we're showing off the 7 side, a wriggly earthworm! also visible are the 9 side again (the snail), the 3 (house centipede!), and 11 (lightning bug!)

the d12 is now on a gorgeous decaying red and orange mushroom. the 9 (snail) and 7 (worm) are the main features, and the cicada and house centipede are also visible

a lovely patch of clover with a white flower, because it's the 4 side, the bumblebee! also visible are the 1 side (roly poly), 6 (moth), and lightning bug again

Your bad art is better than AI slop.

four frame comic. first frame shows a typical AI poster that says : All chatgpt flyers look the same, especially with this font! the text above it reads : I won't go to your event if the poster was made by AI. second frame shows a still frame from a Hank Green youtube video. text above reads : I won't read your post or email and I won't watch your video if they were made with AI. third frame shows an AI restaurant poster of burgers and chicken in a window. text reads : I won't patronize your shop or restaurant if it is advertised with AI. last frame shows an MS paint window with badly written : Your bad art is better than AI slop. text reads : if you can't take the time or make the effort to interact with me yourself, then why should I do it?

beloved intern/volunteer Fiona described zygopines as having "large pathetic eyes that look as if they should begin welling with tears" and she was right to do so

one of the various tragic zygopines of bugguide, this one an allegedly undescribed species of Cylindrocopturus. Its huge sad clown eyes are accentuated by its white body color.
