Mmh, I think I'll buy a few and commit to an all-night study session ;3
It really feels like the world is going down the drain sometimes. For the last few decades, there was some progress (very slow progress, but still progress) towards a better future, but now it feels like more and more people fall for hate and division again. I just wish I could hug everyone and promise them that everything will be okay, but I don't know if I could keep that promise :c
Old trams are so pretty. It's always nice to scroll through Lemmy and come across one of them :3
I need a bear to reach out of the bush and grab me like that~ ...wait, what kind of bear are we talking about?
I could really use some pens that don't run out of ink so quickly. Do you think their pens will last longer? :3c
Blahaj means blue shark, so you're technically correct uwu
What I often do (albeit subconsciously) is, I focus on a three or four, maybe even five of them, and when I get tired of one of them (like I always do), I dial it back, start another, and slowly phase out the old one. This cycle takes a few months, maybe even half a year, rarely one year. The hobbies that stick around this long are stuff that I'll be doing for years to come, and all the others are hobbies that I might come back to every once in a while. And if I don't come back to them, at least they brought me joy for a short while, and that is all that matters :3
What about garbage gatherer, trash trucker, rubbish ranger, waste wizard, or other alliterations? (I really like alliterations)
So, instead of just playing video games by myself, I should do a livestream?
I wish every city could always look like this. Lots of green, bicycle infrastructure, public transport, and cars only as an aside. I don't know how car-centric of a city Athens is, though. Maybe it's just this scene that's like this.
Aww, that's cute. And I like that you went the extra mile and made the irl bunny green. The leaves look very nice, too :3

One of my favourite parts about working from home is that I can take short breaks to walk around, stretch, or cuddle Blahaj whenever I want :3

A digital drawing of my canine fursona sitting on the floor in their room and cuddling a Blahaj (IKEA's shark plushie). They look very happy. Their work laptop is on a desk in the foreground, implying that they are cuddling a plushie instead of working. End alt text.
alt text: a screenshot of the Wikipedia article about leap years. It says "A leap year, also known as an intercalary year or bissextile year, (...)". The word "bissextile" is circled in red and has arrows pointing at it. An image of a bisexual pride flag, Moxxie (a bisexual character in the show Helluva Boss), and Freddie Mercury are placed around the word "bissextile" because it looks a lot like bisexual. end alt text uwu
edit: apologies for the missing image. I uploaded it to my home instance (pawb.social), which had some technical issues and went down a couple of hours later. But it's back now, and so is the image. (Nothing but love for the pawb admins, shit happens <3)

reject humanity, embrace the machine
alt text: the first two panels are a close-up of my generic-canine fursona's angry face, first with their eyes closed, then with their eyes open and a fire in them. They say, "From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine." The third panel is my fursona wearing a protogen visor, doing a cute face, saying "beep boop", and sitting on the ground like a silly little guy.

I made a comic :3
alt text
A black-and-white comic with seven panels. The comic’s title is “The Duality of Furries.”
First panel: My “generic anthro canine” fursona is holding a phone, smiling, and looking flattered.
Second panel: A phone screen showing a conversation. Me: “ur cute :3” - them: “no u >w<” - me: “not as cute as u O//w//O” - them: “u the cutest”
Third panel: My fursona smiling and holding a phone, similar to the first panel.
Fourth panel: Another phone screen with further messages. Me: “oki gotta go now :3” - them: “nuuu why? ;-;” - me: “goin 2 a concert uwu” - them: “oooh have fun <3”
A text box: “one hour later”
Fifth panel: My fursona is in a dark concert hall and participating in a circle pit (lots of people running in a big circle to the rhythm of the music). My sona is smiling and has determined eyes. The circle pit is surrounded by other concertgoers. Big, red letters above the circle pit spell “KILL.”
Sixth panel: My fursona is in the same dark concert hall and participating in a mosh pit (an area where seemingly violent dancing occurs). My sona is windmilling their arms with closed eyes and a strained expression on their face. Others in the pit are doing a two-step, the bees knees, and the chicken dance. Big, red letters above the mosh pit spell “KILL.”
Seventh panel: My fursona is crowd surfing with a big smile and their arms raised. In the background, a photo from a Dying Fetus concert (a death metal band) shows the band members to evoke the feeling of being at a concert. Below my crowd surfing sona, big, red letters spell “KILL KILL.”
I also spontaneously combust when I meet cute people :3
