I got to bully Mascot a lil while they are still locked up. Hopefully they can open their mouth wide enough to get the knot back out. Art by @abigrock.bsky.social
Mascot, a small, dark imp creature wearing a red collar grips the thigh of Gareth, a brown and white dog. Gareth grabs Mascot by the horns and pushes his knot into Mascot’s mouth, surprising the imp. Gareth tells Mascot, “Let’s fill up your other end! Maybe that’ll cheer you up.”

Coworker to me: “You can’t have a baby face with your bald spot.” I’ve never been more injured in my life.

Absolutely frigid take, but if you’re a racist and sexist piece of shit you deserve to lose your job.

Who the fuck needs a weighted blanket to sleep when you have a fat ass cat that’ll paw the back of your phone until you put it on your chest so she can lay on it? She won’t do it unless I put my phone on my chest specifically.

I hope you know that the art of everyone I follow is turned into personal stickers that I send to my wife as reaction images.

I have officially been at my Library long enough that people called out my IRL name while I was walking in the parade today.

I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole of getting Advanced Reading Copies (basically book review copies) and now I’ve gotten myself a backlog of novels to review that I’d love to finish before they publish.

For those of you who don’t know, IRL me is as hairy as Gareth or hairier. I made the mistake of wearing a white polo to work and you can very clearly see my happy trail and it continuing all the way up my chest to my neck.

Tomodachi Life Update: Ms. Frizzle and Saitama, my and my wife’s Miis, and Princess Bubblegum and Marceline, have all had children. PB and Marcie’s is my favorite. Their name is Licorice Black. Shaggy and Link dating. Zelda’s crushing on Mothman. Atom Eve crushes on Link even though Mark LIVES HERE

The number of patrons upset that the Summer Reading theme this year is “Unearth a Story” and not the 250th anniversary of United States is astounding. We’re here to promote literacy, not patriotism.

Wife: “Fluttershy is the element of kindness.” Me: “I thought her thing was photography?” Wife: “Where the hell did you get that from?” Me: “Oh shit, I was thinking Shutterfly.”

I’m always so well prepared, I’d make a great survivalist. Now, if only I actually enjoyed being outdoors.

I’ve never had to correct a dream before. I got bit by a python in my dream and I was like “oh I’ll be fine, they’re non-venomous” my dream tried really hard to convince me that they were in-fact venomous to the point I actually woke up and I checked on Google to prove it wrong.

The only flaw with Tomodachi Life is that I want to do multiple islands on my profile. I want an island of Cryptids, I want an island of my friends, I want an island of historical figures. Yes 70 mii’s is probably enough to do them all together but I don’t necessarily want Mothman to fuck my wife.

If you honk at me for waiting 3-5 seconds before making a right on red, I will absolutely be parking my ass and not make that turn until the light is green now.

You know, I’m usually not good at creative builds games. The problem is, Pokopia is full of cuties that I want (at least with most of them) to keep happy. I’m literally over here paving roads so Riolu can explore the world as he wishes.

Thank you thank you thank you to @abigrock.bsky.social for the Lucario Imp design! I love how it turned out so much!
A stylized illustration of an anthropomorphic Lucario with a dark red and black color scheme. The figure stands upright with a confident, intense expression, featuring sharp chest and hand spikes, pointed ears, and a zigzag-shaped tail ending in an arrowhead.

It’s always a great feeling stumbling across a new book series to read completely by accident.

Gender bending is somewhat common in furry art, but what happens when you try to gender bend a nonbinary character? Do they just go null?

So many fucking car issues. Honestly. Next time I need to repair something that costs more than $500 it would be cheaper for me to buy a new car than keep this piece of shit.

D&D curse idea: Like with mobile games, all spell casting now happens in real time. Any spells must have a timer set and a spell cannot be cast until the timer is complete. That 1hr spell is now taking up your real life time. You can pay the DM $1.99 to skip the timer.

Tumblr user nocryptographer:
I talked with someone who works in book publishing, and they mentioned they get a lot of AI slop these days. I asked how they know what's human-written, and they said that there's one thing that will reveal AI slop without error, and that's the author not knowing their own creation.
A real author can talk about their story for hours. They love to elaborate every character, every twist, every detail. Because those existed in their head long before they ever made it to the paper. They were loved before they were written.
AI slop wasn't. It was just vomited into existence.
Someone who generates their story with AI will never bond with their story the way real writers do. That's why they may not know what to say when they're asked why did the character do this, or even remember the scene in the first place. It's something they read, not something they wrote. And to a writer, those are not the same.
There's a unique bond between the creator and the creation. If your writing doesn't come of you, you'll always lack that.
I keep hearing soon we won't be able to tell. And perhaps, in a superficial sense, that's true. But there is a difference. It's not em dashes or repeated words. It's whether the story was made by someone who loves it and cares about it. 
If the writer's eyes light up when asked why did the character do that? and they start their very own Ted Talk about that specific scene... 
then it's real.
