Without saying your age, who was your first animated crush?

Aww, this is the story of my life, too. I'm glad you found Winston! Being able to finally cuddle a dog was such a big moment for me -- it just changes something inside you deep down, doesn't it?

(Here's our little guy)

recent photos of Buut-Buut being adorable without even trying

when I was about 8, I read a book called The Philosophy Files, which had thought experiments like, "how do you know you're not a brain in a vat living in a virtual world?" "if you use a scifi teleporter which destroys & then reassembles all of your particles, do you actually die every time?" ++

Buut-Buut seeming like an angel vs. Buut-Buut being a little devil

rare footage of Buut-Buut sitting in my lap. he is NOT a cuddly dog (why be still when you could be running around, playing, or "investigating" things you're not supposed to?) and only *appears* calm. 10 seconds ago we were wrestling on the ground

buut-buut all dressed up and ready to go to work in his polo shirt. (hah, "work." buut-buut thinks his job is "official royal poison taster" -- he wishes to have a small bite of everything I eat before I eat it)

sometimes you do a tarot reading for yourself and it's exactly what you need, like a warm hug from the universe. & sometimes you do a tarot reading and you just want the cards to fuck off because they may be right but you do NOT want to be told that right now

determined little dog has stolen a Brussels sprout from out of the grocery bag. to be fair a Brussels sprout IS a 1) small round ball made of 2) food, two things which dogs really like

@knifecrow.bsky.social thought you might get a laugh out of this. my local library's collection has this DeviantArt-circa-1999 masterpiece as the official cover for the Howl's Moving Castle audiobook, it captures Howl as he truly is: an anime boy drawn by a 13-year-old 😅

this is the video most of the game sound effects are sourced from. Buut-Buut's trying to grab the little orange ball sitting on top of the purse & we are encouraging him to use his problem-solving skills, lol

Buut-Buut's day: frolics in yard with dog-friend from across the street, turns into snowball, has no regrets (until he is put into a bathtub)

Fact #1: These two chopsticks were once the same length.
Fact #2: We have a little dog who gets bored easily.

Can you solve the mystery of what happened? 😛 #dogsofbluesky

I have a very clear mental picture of this cute thing because our dog does it too, haha (except with pinecone "cigars")

very strange year for me, reading-wise. I had some sort of autism-related language shutdown* last spring that made it hard for me to read/write as much as usual, so I relied a *lot* on re-reads (normal for me) and on audiobooks (not normal).

feel free to ask for recs based on interests/criteria!

various pictures of Buut-Buut being ridiculous. sometimes the comedy is accidental but I swear, he knows when he's making everyone laugh, and he loves the attention #dogsofbluesky

I have nothing against furries, I'm glad they have their own space here too, but it is a bit of a surprise if you're scrolling that feed in the morning! If you search "dogs of Bluesky" and click feeds, the last feed on the list filters art out and gives us only photos of our cute pals (this one):

okay, I cheated by choosing the Doctor, who is both one person and fifteen different people. these are my favourite three

& tagging anyone who feels inspired and wants to be tagged!

*Buut-Buut is pronounced like "put-put" and in my mom's dialect of Chinese it's a slang/baby-talk word for "little fart". okay also some bonus grinning pics
November 23, 2024 at 10:48 AM
I know that dogs express happiness differently than humans, but here are some pics where it seems like Buut-Buut* is "smiling" (which is largely an illusion created by his little mouth being dirty all the time)

lately I've been watching Star Trek: The Original Series. it's very amusing every time they try to blend in during a historical episode* and Spock has to wear a funny hat to hide his ears
