Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I can’t believe it’s October already. Less than three months to go until I can say I’ve been writing stuff for a whole year. Time flies! 110

Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 25/09/2026For fat bear week, I present The Fat Bear Games! This is a story of a dream in which Bear competes against other bears in various games. Can Bear become the biggest bestest bear?

Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I was hoping to have my September story finished today for fat bear week, but I need more time unfortunately. It’s still fat bear week tomorrow, it’s fiiiiine. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 20/09/2026They told me “If you eat one more of those fat bears, you’ll turn IN to a fat bear!” (It’s too late for me, save yourself. . . Or don’t, lol.) 011
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 18/09/2026This week kicked my ass. Hopefully a big bowl of ice cream followed by a big sleep will make it go away. 001
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Fat bear week is this month, the week of my people! I’m looking forward to all the furry fat bear content picking up this month. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 04/09/2026I had to wear my suit for the first time in a while and my fiancé said the buttons were a little tight. It must have shrunk from. . . not being worn. . . Yeah, that’s it. 010
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 27/08/2026In his most recent dream, Bear goes shopping for a new shower, but they all seem too small for some reason. So he decides to visit Elmer, the elephant seal therapist, to see if he can help Bear discover why he has dreams like these.

Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 20/08/2026I wish I had complete control over my dreams. If I could do anything in my dreams, I would definitely at least gain the ability to change into my fursona at will (I know, unoriginal thought. But still; who wouldn’t?) 010
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 13/08/2026It’s that time of year again; time to make a fantasy football team. Where’s all the furry sports fans? Who are y’all taking? 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Since I like to make teams of Pokemon so much, I decided to make a team of Pokemon that I like to see most in furry art. 1) Tyrantrum 2) Mudsdale 3) Krookodile 4) Beartic 5) Ursaring Starter: Feraligatr I had to leave off so many good ones, but these are my favorites. 010
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 30/07/2026The chess app I use has a chess set where the knights are bears this month, so naturally I have been using it. Hopefully it isn’t a ‘this-month-only’ thing. I guess I’ll find out in a couple days. Bear knights! 100
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 24/07/2026I think I’ve found a way to write the more (for lack of a better word) “fictional/fantasy” stories involving my extra large characters and I’m excited. I’ll probably have it ready for my end-of-August story. If all goes well, it’ll be a recurring series. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 17/07/2026When I think or write about anthropomorphic characters, I use words like “people” or “men/women/guys” for example. But I’ve also seen some people use words like those as synonyms for “humans”. I don’t think there’s a “correct” interpretation, but I find this interesting. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 09/07/2026What makes a dad joke a bad dad joke? It has a “ch line” (a punch line without a pun). I had to suffer through that one, so now you do too. You’re welcome. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 02/07/2026I noticed recently that it’s been a while since I last wrote a story about Bear’s more nsfw side (since January!). So stay tuned for the July story if you’re into that stuff. The last one seems to be my most viewed story this year, after all. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Here’s another thing I’ve learned since becoming more active in the furry community: lots of other furries I’ve met and seen online also like rhythm games. Makes me wonder what friends I could’ve made if I knew I was a furry sooner. 000

Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 18/06/2026What do you mean I’m thinking about fat furs to procrastinate, can’t I just think about bellies because I like them? Who needs to meet deadlines? 040
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 12/06/2026When it comes to fat furs in art and writing, how big is too big? I’ve always preferred the more realistic ones, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t also enjoy seeing the occasional belly big enough to fill an office cubicle. 010
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 04/06/2026I had fun with the new series I started last month, so I think I’ll prioritize those moving forward. It feels like one of those things that helps take my mind off whatever’s going on. Like a little mental reset. Plus, puns are great. Anyway, Happy Pride. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 28/05/2026The urge to not get work done is strong today. If only I could be a bear on the internet for a living. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 27/05/2026An otter, a bear, and an armadillo made of fudge go to the beach to play volleyball.

Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Trying to navigate the difference between “writing about a topic that many people have done before” and “I hope I don’t accidentally copy someone else” (if that makes sense). 010
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I think I should modify my usernames slightly everywhere, because multiple people have called me “That Cher Bear” instead of “Thatcher Bear”. It’s completely my fault for spelling my usernames that way, but it’s still kinda funny when it happens. 010
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 14/05/2026I have learned these past few months that multiple bears (me included) like puns and dad jokes. Is this a furry bear thing or confirmation bias? Maybe I shouldn’t question it. Puns and dad jokes are great. 030
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 07/05/2026This month’s story is gonna be the beginning of another new series of stories. It’s like I thought; this year is all about making a bunch of new stuff. Gotta start somewhere before I can get better. 020
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 23/04/2026I just posted the first in a series of journals on fat furs to my furaffinity page. It’s called Fat Fur Philosophy Corner. The intent is to share stories, thoughts, and ideas about anything fat fur related. 100
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 19/04/2026Just went to a prerelease for the new Magic set. It was so good! I didn’t get the colors I wanted, but my second choice got me a pretty good deck. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 16/04/2026I was chatting with a friend a while ago about ice cream and for some reason, autocorrect changed “hot fudge” to “Joe fudge”. As it turns out, that typo helped us create a new character called Joe Fudge. Anyway, I realized on Tuesday that I forgot to post his backstory, so I put it on furaffinity. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 11/04/2026Well since it’s apparently poetry month, I think I’ll do my first poem of the year as my monthly writing challenge for April. I don’t have high hopes for it, but I figure it’s a good thinking exercise for the bigger stuff that’ll come later this year. 000

Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 26/03/2026The creative juices are not flowing today. I still plan to finish up my March story before the end of the month, which is iiiiin (checks calendar) 5 DAYS? Damn, ok. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 23/03/2026Usually I post on Thursdays, but since it’s apparently world bear day today, I’ll do one today instead. Bear! There. I did it. 010
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 19/03/2026I’ve been (very slowly) working on making my first “real” fursona, since I don’t count my current pfp. I’d rather have a black bear. Something about them just makes me feel like “That’s me!” I can’t explain why, but it feels right. 011
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 12/03/2026I’ve been waiting for March so I can work on this new idea I’ve had for a story (since January and February stories were already in progress) and I’m super excited. Imagine a magical board game that fattens the players in interesting ways. (PS: I really hope this hasn’t been done a bunch before.) 010
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 05/03/2026Since I’ve come to know many people who are into inflation stuff, I figured I would try including it in a story. Do you ever see, or create, or think of something and wish it was real? Well that happened with this idea. I hope I can make it interesting enough when I write about this one. 010

Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 19/02/2026I’m so jealous of all the artists who can make such amazing art! I try to get inspiration for my own writing, but always end up scrolling through other people’s stuff forever and never getting anything done. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 10/02/2026Next story is coming along slowly. The main point of the story is something I hope my fellow fat-men-admirers can relate to. 010
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 03/02/2026My past couple stories have been pretty nsfw, so February is going to be a bit lighter. I plan to introduce a new couple of characters. A couple of boyfriends of very different sizes. More details to come. 000
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 26/01/2026We didn’t get enough snow to cancel my jury duty tomorrow. :( On the plus side, I might have to sit around long enough to get some more writing done. 000

Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 14/01/2026First story of the year is coming together. Bear gets an unexpected and vague invitation from someone who hasn’t seen him since 100+ pounds ago. (PS. I’m already getting the feeling that I’ll have a pretty good list of new characters by the end of the year.) 010
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 03/01/2026For my first full year (hopefully) of writing, I plan to finish one story per month. I feel this is the minimum I can do to say I wrote all year. Plus if I put this post out there, it will help keep me accountable. . . Right? . . . Please? 020
Thatcher Bear @thatcherbear.bsky.social · 30/12/2025It’s amazing how much I can still learn about myself just thinking about new ideas to write about fat guys. Highly recommend writing and art to anyone. 000
