everyone is, I am impossible to please 🫠🫠
unable to read most fanfiction because the culture is for the prose to beat you over the head with intensity and repetition until all the interactive fun of reading is smothered

Everyone is so busy in NYC that doing social stuff is very inconsistent. It creates this weird cycle where catching up on work for an hour on Saturday is more consistently fun (and less frustrating) than trying to meet new people.
waow, the new SoFurry is........

"His mouth's on me, tongue in my sheath, while his fiancée's lip balm watches like a camera from her nightstand."
but being outraged all the time gets you more likes!!!!!!!!!!!
keep your eyes peeled.....
about to post a Star Fox story to ao3 in the year of our lord 2026 (wtf)
don't get me wrong, it's not all negative, and I like hearing from friends even if it's topical slop, but if I step back and look at it all as a whole, I'm not so sure it's net-positive
and even when they don't partake, people's public social media feeds rarely embody whatever qualities of the 'private' relationship we have that made me interested in following them anyway -- The Algorithm transforms your behavior (and I am no exception here)
even when following people I like and get along with well, I'm bombarded by doomscrolling and doomposting and all the topical slop I'm specifically trying to avoid, because, well, that's just what social media does to you
2 is nix, since I left Seattle. 1 is hit-or-miss -- I avoid the worst of bsky by wholly disable reskeets... but I get a lot of it right back from people that I follow.
What they post on bsky is influenced by the gravitational well of social media
context: I made bsky for two specific reasons:
1. to keep up with friends I don't talk with much
2. to engage with the local Seattle community a little more
and I was leery of wasting a bunch of time consuming secondhand Internet slop and outrage bait
that, or disentangling the personal stuff from it and making it exclusively Furry
contemplating retiring the bluesky... been here for a couple years now, not sure it's net positive.
awwww ❤️
... wait, that's a joke?!?!?!
what's the easy joke
me and who
omg I love baby gronk...
I may be dying in a work fire but for once I remembered to post #FCF on @knotdogtor.bsky.social
This is definitely the most hours I’ve worked in a week. 🫠
Rough work week. Overheard at lunch:
“The not exercising is counteracted by the not eating, so it all works out!”
