man i don't know anymore. was it ever going to be possible for a bunch of fans to run a website once the internet reached critical mass? there has always been this commercialized wall approaching slowly — nearly the whole of the internet was given away For Free for 2.5 decades to drive adoption

the truth is that FurAffinity should have reached this point a decade ago, should have become community-funded and run, and should have—as a result—restored artistic freedom of expression to *all* within that community that they have disenfranchised

FA's unraveling under the command of profilic, ego-centric dopes has been one of the biggest contributors to the degradation of furry culture outside the rise of the furry sociopathic media influencer put it out of its misery

"The current level of political animosity is exactly what one would expect to see if an extremist faction attempted to rescind the hard-earned rights of the vast majority of the country’s citizens." There are not enough exclamation points to convey how I felt reading this paragraph

oooooo i do not like being on this website. not one bit. this website drives me fucking crazy.

Red pages. Blue memos. Two rooms. Two Brothers. Two unforgettable experiences. Not only are both Myst & Blue Prince 40% off right now, but you can save an additional 15% with the aptly named Red & Blue Bundle! @cyan.com @dogubomb.bsky.social

A poster I made as merch for Confuror 2026, inspired by the retro Japanese pop art poster style. Not gonna lie, I’ve always wanted to draw Wile E. Coyote, and what better excuse than after watching Coyote vs. Acme? Thanks a lot for supporting my work. More pics are on the way.

lmao Barq is a hookup app that asks “what if you couldn’t message anyone until you’re popular”

me: I'm feeling jealous everyone: that's bad. feeling things is bad. just don't be jealous. me: oh okay. I will not be jealous. thank you.

A lingering thought

okay they definitely are stupid cult freaks because WHY would you want to “prove” your crime and plagiarism machine is a Real Guy. your whole legal defense revolves around your product being just a tool!

i dont think this is representative of board game fans, i think this is representative of people with a patronizing desire to rank and criticize things

A thing about BoardGameGeek: it's all one massive database, so if people are reviewbombing a game because (say) there's a black character in it, you can click through and see who they are, and note their ids, and then every time they post on the BGG forums in future you can reply "STFU you racist."

The adventure continues! To be honest I've been sitting on this one for a long time  I wasn't happy with it, but I think I've got it to a good state Hope you like!

why did i get very passionately invested in web development at 16 because all of the people admired in it were humanist user design freaks who made blog posts about new WCAG innovations just for the entire industry to turn around and say “Psyche! we love Human Extinction” as soon as i graduated…
