I know we're all hyped on the No Kings rallies, but KOSA is back like a slasher villain that just won't stay dead and we need to keep on this shit. Take ten minutes to harass your representatives.

I try really hard not to think about the period of time where my fursona had edgy tribal tattoos.

I'd watch an hour-long retrospective on historic furry trends and their sources.

You too? I went from Robin Hood to searching for Star Fox fanart on the Internet and it all got a little out of hand from there.

A few asked: We're still looking for donors and I don't have any huge updates. ATM people are moving forward with testing and we're still looking for donors (esp. if you're in or near MI)
iggyland.org has all the info as usual. Thanks! A lot of people are trying, it takes MONTHS to get cleared.

The TL;DR on how you can help (if you scroll down, the full story is below): In short I have a disease that requires a living kidney donor. There are no other viable options for me. I have only a few ...

Hello, everyone, I know I said in my last update that the comic would be officially archived. Well, scratch that. I just can't stop drawing it... So, yeah, Gone Feral will keep going. But I think I do owe you an explanation.

Find it in the link below if you're interested.

If life has taught me anything, it's that it's very dangerous to get between a fox and their French fries.

That otter is either incredibly brave or incredibly foolish.

Probably foolish.

🧵A man approches from behind, while the Bard pets the Fox behind the ears, appreciating the comfort.

"Hey, are you the one who did this?" A semi gruff toned Otter, in a slightly dishelved outfit.
He places down the Enchanted Sake bowl that was prior given to the waitress.

The Bard nods.

Car got totaled on the way back from visiting family. Every step forward is 20 steps back. Tired. Getting a rental car to get back home. Lost work shifts. Don’t know what to do anymore to catch up. Hate to ask for help now, but anything helps. Thank you.

Found this YCH from last year that didn’t sell when it was posted and had to be shelved.

Would anyone like it?

145$ , inked and colored with alcohol markers. You get to pick the costume.

Dm me. One slot only (obviously) and if you are in the US it can be shipped to you.

Honestly I think that everyone eventually grows to want more than just gratification. But that takes time, and once you're there, it's a little hard to watch other people push artists to do nothing but appeal to their kinks.

Oddertheotter @oddertheotter.bsky.social · 9d

Honestly I feel like this is why I don't create as much as I could. I want to be able to do more than just appeal to the base kink, but there's no ground for me to believe it'll be received well. It's like if I want engagement beyond diapers I'll need to focus on an alt account.

Why is it the only people who are big enough assholes to tell Trump what to stick where, are also just unrepentant assholes in general?

Where are all the good-guy assholes?

Heading over to Twitch to dust off the account, and I'm trying out a brand new game tonight, called Little Rocket Lab!

I've wanted to give factory-management games a go, and this looks really cute.

Come hang out!

Maybe bitching about it on the Internet will help break me out of the spiral.

Why does the fox care about regulations? Foxes are above the petty concerns of bureaucrats. I think he's just trying to annoy the bard deliberately.

Peak character development: when the animal companion is smarter than the main character

🧵The Fox gurgles from within the Sake bowl.

"Get yer head out of there already..." the Bard exasperatedly barks at hus compainion.

The Fox gurgles again.

"The expression is not meant to be literal. And you can't even drown, anyway."

The Fox lifts his head from the bowl, the Bard begins to laugh.
