will reactivate YouTube at some point for time-lapses and have been considering, again in order, Newgrounds, Subscribestar, e612, Weasyl and Inkbunny, but I'm open to suggestions.

Today's intrusive thought is the difference between "getting yelled at" and "getting shouted at".

A startup once asked me how to "tap in" to the furry market. I told them to get actually, genuinely involved in the community, support and lift up the people there, do serious research on what they were already using... they walked away at this point, not letting me finish, hanging their heads.
Hobbies cost money. Nobody looks at Magic the Gathering players or Warhammer 40k players and think suspiciously wealthy gamers. It's when money is given to other people instead of corporations does the math change.
Furries have mutual enjoyment of the craft and with that comes mutual support.

This fandom has a reputation for being "suspiciously wealthy" but the truth is most furries just love and value art and people so much that they want to use their money for art and supporting artists so they can make a living doing what they love. It's a cycle of genuine passion I think.

Today's intrusive thought is how Hostess tried to get the word "Twinkie" to mean "there's two of them", hence "twins", yet people latched on to the "-kie" part, not the "twin" part, and now it means "smol".

Today's intrusive thought is:
When cats stretch while curled up and get thier hind paws in their nose, do they have their own version of "trick or treat smell my feet" they tease each other with?

Today's intrusive thought... I forgot it already, but it was a good one. Just imagine I posted something like this again. It was something like this.
Today's intrusive thought is "Faq'faiyamam!" (what, for YEARS, I thought Chef Louie was saying in this scene and one of the words I was excited to learn French for)
Once we entered the "subtitles everywhere" era, it was revealed to be "Fight like a man!"
...disappointing...

Brooklyn, 1980. A kind young man from Japan offers Mario to adapt his life's story into video games. The old man's only request is that his wife gets to be a Princess, as she should be.

People sometimes ask me if I could draw nudity at any time, why don't I, well to quote Roger Rabbit: "not at any time, only when it's funny!"

Sim City Opening Screen (SNES)
Here is the Sim City opening screen and menu select screen. Not the best bit of gameplay I have, but I love the music to these parts.
