Mortimer, a young gecko, is lost in the pages of a big book, while Viola, a little deer, watches with curiosity. "The Conquest of Bread". Is it an interesting book? She has no idea what it’s about, but Mortimer invites her to take a look and find out.

Thank you!
I am so grateful to have so many amazing trans friends in my life. Every one of them has taught me so much about how to truly be yourself no matter what others tell you. And every single trans person I know has been so much more joyful and -alive- after determining and embracing who they really are. It never stops being an amazing thing to see, and that courage has inspired my own journey toward finding out who I am. Which is still TBD, but currently sitting at male-ish but gender non-comforming, which is sorta non-binary and sorta 'male is okay I guess but I get to be the one who decides what that means.'
Trans siblings, I see you and you are beautiful, you are amazing, and you are strong. Stay awesome, stay joyous, and thrive.
"What can I do for you, my lady?"
"I need a suit of armour modified," the lady said.
The armourer took her measurements, checked the pieces, and gave her an appraising look. "You've had this a while?"
"Yes. Since before... Ah..."
"Thought so. You'll need new thigh pieces and a wider skirt."

Bleh, I knew what I wanted to say yesterday, but by the time I actually sat down and made the post I missed out the part I actually intended to say.
What I meant to say: it's like a cross between Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIMH and Educating Rita. (Although it predated both of them, so I guess Flowers for Algernon might have helped inspire both.)

Google is effectively killing AOSP by no longer sharing code until there is a major release from the internal development team.
This will not only be a big blow to AOSP, but it also basically makes it so external contributions will no longer be accepted.
By next week Android will be 1 step away from becoming closed source.
@souldessin Maybe. But Linux phones are still a long way from being on par with iOS or Android. I've been rooting for them for a long time, but development has been at a snail's pace.
But I'd love to see it, because I'd love to see an alternative to iOS / Android out there.

Echo, the bunny finally found the one!! The perfect carrot!! The moment he took a bite, the world around him faded out, nothing else mattered.
(Fun fact: Carrots weren’t always orange! They used to be purple, yellow, or even white before being bred into the color we know today)

I forget if I posted this here, but I'm offering an eBook version of my first book for free for another month or so.
The purpose of this is to introduce people to my story universe and my series, plus a bit of marketing for the books to come . . . but mostly to get eyes on it to find and fix any errors that came through in setting up the new printing.

The people who killed her were following it.’
And remember Anne Frank wasn’t living in Nazi Germany or Hitler’s homeland of Austria. She was living in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Fascism not only turns law and order on its head…it spreads beyond borders.

This piece was inspired by a drawing I did back in 2015, one I had completely forgotten about! During an art jam at my second ever furry convention, MFF 2015, I doodled a random fox with his hands hidden behind his back (probably because I was too lazy to draw hands, haha).
I later learned that, at the time, a boy saw my sketch and imagined I had drawn his fursona. He shared this confession with me just a year ago, and I found it so heartwarming. It reminded me that even the simplest drawings can hold deep meaning for those who see them.
Here’s the original piece from 2015: https://www.deviantart.com/pandapaco/art/Random-fox-not-Biro-584883747
And now, 10 years later, I’ve reimagined the drawing, this time making Adam the character of it. He still playfully hides his hands, as if up to something mischievous.

You'll even spot how I initially tried to reveal his hands (breaking my old habit of avoiding them) only to hide them again for nostalgia's sake!

Your support helps me keep creating art. Thank you!
The characters you draw are some of the most charming creatures I've ever laid eyes on.🥹💕
I dunno how you manage to pack so much endearing (& enduring!😉) personality into your portraits, but I can *easily* pick your art out from the crowd whenever I stumble upon it.🥰
Thanks for making such lovely character paintings, and for sharing them with us, here!🙌🎉✨🙏
This was just a project I decided to make one day. Believe me, it was not as easy as it may seem to find clips of everyone energetically dancing. Also, just ...YouTube
Here's @azakir and myself ready to bring the fluffderg magic this #FursuitFriday - watch out, you never know what kind of mayhem it may involve!

Chinese curses really are the best.
Everyone's heard "May you live in interesting times", of course. We're all living that.
Next on the ladder, it's "May you come to the attention of those in authority."
And the top of the scale? "May the Gods give you everything you wish for."

I kinda get that whole looking at a musician and saying "oh it looks effortless" when looking at the recent vid I put out... it was deffo not effortless (I learned that song yesterday and it took me a good hour to get a moderately ok take); the fingers aren't necessarily like going nuts. there was a lot of I guess "cross-fingering" and the scale was odd and the take was as fast as it was because I was running out of patience
BUT, that's the whole idea of music, it's a snapshot of how you're feeling at the time, the mirror image - how people enjoy it, or interpret it is not up to you.
still, love the idea of reaching into the rich tapestry of folk and bringing it to the furry crowd, as much as I feel apprehension in this instance of given y'know recent tensions & the source material. I think it's personally irrelevant, culture is culture, and tunes are tunes and what's fundamental is the beauty of that particular melody and the rich history in it, glad to share it ❤️
It was a lovely piece!
And as someone that’s *attempted* to play the accordion in the past, I’ve personally zero thoughts about it being effortless.
