I notice oddly I like seeing recently people repairing or upgrading crappy OEM desktops. I almost wanna do it myself though it's probably not a great investment. I do have 2 obsolete work pcs sitting around in my family's place.

Awww cuuuutie 🥺

Agreed, and it's a shame. I don't buy games these days (since gen 7) and like some content I like but it really does feel sometimes like corporate "we know you'll like it cause you know it and its cute" slop to put it bluntly. I may draw some designs, but it does feel like it has no soul.

Valid! Yeah I'll definitely have to challenge myself and experiment a lot I think.

Varanemous @varanemous.bsky.social · 5h

To elaborate, those introverts that have a a noticeable "forward" personality in a way perhaps but they still aren't necessarily that extroverted generally speaking. Like maybe I can try to make Cerulean a bit more "Cool." so to speak, whatever that means LOL.

Varanemous @varanemous.bsky.social · 5h

I don't have MUCH of a personality for them atm but rn they read to me as one of my textbook "kinda shy, slightly quirky types." might keep both of those descriptors but make them more nuanced and I might actually overall give them a more confident surface-level personality, like some introverts.

Varanemous @varanemous.bsky.social · 5h

It's hard decisions because some people I've talked to like the current design and I don't wanna take that away from them, but it seems (much to even my own surprise) my mind has changed a bit on 'em. Might also give a diff personality too since they currently feel like previous ideas I tend to use.

But yeh I mention bears cause while they don't look TERRIBLY bear-like I found myself referencing bears/anthro bear characters to try to visualize their facial structure. In the future I might make them look much more markedly like a bear, maybe still keeping some of the weird traits, idk.

RAAHHHHHHH (I really like this even more now!)

Varanemous @varanemous.bsky.social · 5h

This is such a cool character!

Varanemous @varanemous.bsky.social · 5h

Their design was just kinda "random bullshit go" in terms of how I created them LOL, so they are kind of a non-specific furry hybrid.

I really wanna change my OC Cerulean's design so bad but I'm also like "Do I need to change them?" Idk I think they CAN look cute but I also feel like I kinda wanna give a different direction for them but I am also bad at drawing bears (ursidae in general) rn and need to practice.

I really like you guys' chars' shapes!

Varanemous @varanemous.bsky.social · 6h

LMFAO, I can see it a bit perhaps.

Varanemous @varanemous.bsky.social · 6h

I feel like part of the reason perhaps I feel like I even can observe this being weird is for reasons that people who know me well enough will know LMFAO. Don't wanna be too direct about it rn to avoid causing weird comments under this post.

Varanemous @varanemous.bsky.social · 6h

I'm usually not a hot taker but I've seen enough posts on this topic to feel confident also forwarding this opinion along, something to consider of course.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks the 'clanker' shit is kinda weeeeeiiird (personally). I don't like AI being pushed on things as much as anyone but I do feel like the seeming necessity for people to make slurs for shit is weird.... Like I kinda get it, it's not for real people but still.

👩🏾 Black furry creatives? artists? musicians?
👨🏾‍🦱 Black furry writers, lyricists, poets?
🧕🏾 Black fursuit makers? craftmakers?
👵🏾 Black furries who wanna hype up other Black furries?

Let's make a thread of some Black work 👇🏾

(Non-Black furries: boost work you like, but enjoy our greatness in silence 🤫)

queer spaces are so overly racially biased it makes me upset every time.

the lack of boosting black positivity or just interacting with black art is upsetting. black art, people, and characters aren't viewed in the same desirability as white characters.
