A red panda beats the blazing heat in the best way possible: using a big block of ice as a bed. A cheerful grin is across the pandas face, happy to be nice and cool through the heat

Wolverines have large, broad paws that help them walk on top of the snow.

Unfortunately, those big paws also make it difficult for them to play piano or use keybosrds, so thy spwnd most of thrir free tume pravticing finger postire.

Generative Al is being marketed as a tool designed to reduce or eliminate the need for developed, cognitive skillsets. It uses the work of others to simulate human output, except that it lacks grasp of nuance, contains grievous errors, and ultimately serves the goal of human beings being neurologically weaker due to the promise of the machine being better equipped than the humans using it would ever exert the effort to be. The people that use generative Al for art have no interest in being an artist; they simply want product to consume and forget about when the next piece of product goes by their eyes. The people that use generative Al to make music have no interest in being a musician; they simply want a machine to make them something to listen to until they get bored and want the machine to make some other disposable slop for them to pass the time with. The people that use generative Al to write things for them have no interest in writing. The people that use generative Al to find factoids have no interest in actual facts. The people that use generative Al to socialize have no interest in actual socialization. In every case, they've handed over the cognitive load of developing a necessary, creative human skillset to a machine that promises to ease the sweat equity cost of struggle. Using generative Al is like asking a machine to lift weights on your behalf and then calling yourself a bodybuilder when it's done with the reps. You build nothing in terms of muscle, you are not stronger, you are not faster, you are not in better shape. You're just deluding yourself while experiencing a slow decline due to self-inflicted atrophy.

re: generative AI

I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used.

And now, you can use it, too.

I’m so sorry you have to go through all of this. That’s always scary to see

Travis, a tiger wearing a polo and khakis, with his hands by his waist. His demeanor is very tired and apathetic.

Travis looking at the viewer, confused and slightly concerned.

And what is a chatty coworker without his quiet sidekick? This is Travis!

He's not very talkative, but don't get it twisted. He will say his good share of snark. Bruce is Travis' manager, so they can be seen together all the time (at the office at least).

Bruce, a lynx in a green polo and blue khakis. He's smirking and pointing to the left side.

The same lynx is in the same pose, but grinning widely.

Bruce with his hand on his hips, looking up to the sky and thinking with a smirk. He just made a silly pun.

Next up: Bruce! This sociable lynx loves keeping things casual in the office, even if annoys everyone, especially Calvin. He can chat up a storm at the worst of times. You'll see what we mean!

Good luck!

A Twitter(?) post from Carson T. Kay, CFB Analyst (handle TKayAnalyst). It reads: “BREAKING: TCU QB Josh Hoover is the first ever collegiate athlete to come out as a furry, per sources. Pictures were shown of him dressing up in a fursuit at a Forth Worth convention.” There are two pictures below it: 1. The first being image of Josh Hoover in full football gear, wearing the TCU uniform and holding a football in a pre-throwing position. 2. The second image being of what appears to be Josh Hoover’s Instagram post. It shows three fursuiters, from left to right: a purple/white/magenta-ear-tipped canine, a bubblegum-pink/white/black-ear-tipped canine, and a hot-pink/white/blue-ear-tipped feline (with blue/white hair). It is not clear which one Josh is. Twitter user Karmea (handle HoodiKarmea) reposts it saying “TCU Starting QB btw”. Above it, another reposter’s name is cropped but their post says, “Can confirm! This is me! OWO”.

An Instagram post that has been screen-capped, posted, then re-posted on Twitter. The original Instagram post comes from handle “joshjhoover” with a timestamp “3h” (3 hours ago) and a verified blue checkmark. It has a photo of three fursuiters. From left-to-right, they are: a purple/white/pink-ear-tipped canine, a bubblegum-pink/white/black-ear-tipped canine, and a hot-pink/white/cyan-ear-tipped feline with cyan/white hair. This post is then screenshotted and posted on Twitter by username HoodiKarmea. The name associated with it says Karmea, followed by a shark emoji and a smiling devil emoji. The timestamp reads “1d” (1 day ago). The post reads “TCU Starting QB btw”. This post is then screenshotted and reposted on Twitter by Josh Hoover, whose username is blacked out. The repost reads, “Can confirm! This is me! OWO”.

If this is true, that’s kinda cool!

Silly fact about me: when I was in high school / early college, I kept imagining that if I made it big in volleyball, I could “come out” as the first openly furry athlete.

…In this scenario, the cock commands the user to keep edging by any means necessary, but to never go over, because once it climaxes, the spell breaks and the user can reduce it back to normal size. Pretty much, outside forces or an internal thought battle ensues, trying to get the user to cum. 2/2

CW: Hyper/Mind Control

I love it when becoming hyper locks you into a gooning state. But I have a very specific scenario that I love imagining: having a hyper cock grow, and when it gets to the point it outgrows one’s own head, it takes over their mind, becoming a slave to its wants and needs...1/2

Woah!

A extremely muscular human puppy is drawn kneeling on the ground wearing a chastity belt, a large tattoo on his heavy pecs reads Wide Load. Above him is a dictionary style definition that reads: Sub-Massive, adjective. An oversized muscular individual who enjoys serving others.

The word of the day is Submassive.

Hey all! TL;DR my work messed up my PTO and while it's getting fixed I do not have enough money to cover both bills and rent on the 1st. Posting links to donate and help me avoid late penalties, any bit helps!

I'm seeing less posts about the Visa and Mastercard situation and I want to make it plain as day. You need to keep calling and bothering them, and losing them money.

Because if we lose this, they are going to cut more and more from what's available until you can only buy what they approve of.

Something we discovered during our fruitful zap session today- I've added it to the initiative page.
