I came across this a while back and ended up saving it because it was so accurate and depressing

Today I got done reading 'A Wildness of the Heart' by Madison Rye Progress, an anthology of furry flash fiction and one novella-length story as the centerpiece. You can read it for free here: wildness.makyo.ink (Review with alt text in the replies)
A dog named Quinn lives with his Father in curiosity. A fable about life, maybe you’ll find something worthwhile too. (1/3)
I 100% have not changed a single goddamn thing about how I write here in the age of "AI." I write how I write. If the "AI" writes anything like how I write, it's because it stole from me. I'm gonna use any punctuation I like, and if it looks "AI"ish to you, you can go fuck yourself.
Authors and journalists are doing more first-person (hello 2010s blogging) and embracing "mistakes" in writing to prove they're not chatbots. There's even an “anti-Grammarly" app that leaves in typos and signs off "sent from my iPhone" to create more authenticity: www.wired.com/story/more-t...
Happy Tu B’Av! That’s the holiday where unmarried women would gather at the Temple and then harass their unrequited lover with a giant horn until the man agreed to marry her. This is also the actual origin of the word “horny.”
OK, NOW I feel official. Had to make the sign, after all. If anyone needs any plasma cut sheet metal signs, hit me up!

Some rough sketches and a plain background version.
Overdressed for the occasion. Another little bit of fanart, inspired by the works of @makyo.ink (seriously, go check her stuff out, it’s sooo good)
It is a tiny bit frustrating seeing Post-Self described as "cyberpunk", given that it is both decidedly not cyber and decidedly not punk. If it is anything related to the genre, it is post-cyberpunk: optimistic, idealistic, hopeful that it is possible for a society to be essentially good.

Photographer challenge: post a photo you're extremely proud of. Playing with light and shadow has always been an interest of mine in photography, but this was the first time I feel like I stumbled into actually feeling like a shot I took gave light tangible volume and presence.
Photographer challenge: post a photo you're extremely proud of. It's silly, and probably something only I like, but I just love the textures and dynamic range I got on this. Was like...4:45AM with juuust barely enough light.

Photographer challenge: post a photo you're extremely proud of. This shot from one of my very first rolls of film is the shot that made me understand the depth and detail possible with this analog process. The way the light interacts with the silver grain is simply magical.
I moved fairly frequently when I was growing up. Every few years, it felt like, we would shift over to some other house, and there would be joy there, too. It was rarely ever a bad thing, mind, just a way to...trade up, I suppose? Or to find a place that fit better, felt more like home.
