The image is a satirical comic depicting two opposing lands divided by water, highlighting a commentary on nationalism. On the left, labeled “Our Blessed Homeland,” there is a castle with a purple flag, a conical tent, and a tree situated on green hills. The right side, labeled “Their Barbarous Wastes,” mirrors the left but with a castle featuring an orange flag, and descriptions are oppositely critical. Banners with phrases describe each side, with positive language on the left like “Our Glorious Leader” and “Our Heroic Adventurers,” and negative language on the right like “Their Wicked Despot” and “Their Brutus Invaders.” Three boats are on the water, colored purple, pink, and yellow. Below this scene, the text reads: “Teaches you to take pride in shit you haven’t done & hate people you’ve never met.” Alt-text: Satirical comic of two lands divided by water, critiquing nationalism with contrasting positive and negative phrases. Transcribed Text: NATIONALISM OUR BLESSED HOMELAND OUR GLORIOUS LEADER OUR GREAT RELIGION OUR NOBLE POPULACE OUR HEROIC ADVENTURERS THEIR BARBAROUS WASTES THEIR WICKED DESPOT THEIR PRIMITIVE SUPERSTITION THEIR BACKWARD SAVAGES THEIR BRUTISH INVADERS Teaches you to take pride in shit you haven’t done & hate people you’ve never met.

Honestly doesn't bother me. I generally put a hard stop at 18 as a minimum for me to engage because, yeah, under that is just weird. But a large chunk of my friends are 18 - 30s because I run a number of UK events. You have to be aware of the gap, but honestly, doesn't bother me anymore.
Erf. Weird self loathing spike. I need tea, time to escape morning call and then head for a brew.
Bonjour ma petit pans. How's everyone on this fine Wednesday? I am awake but only just. Send breakfast. And maybe some bubbly.
A picture of a rather dilapidated copy of "The picture of Dorian Gray" There is visible water damage to the cover and the plastic cover is yellowing. Obviously, not evident from the picture but there is a truly foul musty smell emanating from it!
Last week, a gentleman returned this rather dilapidated copy of this famous book to us after 50 years. He had found it in his attic!
Presumably this means there is a pristine copy somewhere in our libraries....
My brain is being weird today. Feeling weirdly out of things and stressed. Think it's just busy time and nervous over stuff. But yeah, anxiety and self doubt running hot.
If you don't laugh... 😂
Bit of a British TV reference that's probably lost on Bluesky 'Murica but here you go anyway 😉 😂
Meme with a photo of a fountain drink machine with a cup sitting under two nozzles (red and blue), a hand pushing both buttons at once and liquid coming from both nozzles. The blue (left) drink is labelled "grateful for the insight I have gained from all my experiences" and the red (right) drink is labelled "still thinks some of that sh*t should not have happened". The hand is labelled "me".
Here if you need me m'dude.
I think about this all the time

They couldn't agree on a musical to fit the theme so we went with music instead. It's themed after their favourite album cover.

As I originally planned not to do Leeds today due to a friend visiting I have decided to stick to this plan even though they can't make it anymore. FOMO is bad, especially due to folk going I wanted to see, but I need some down time. And I have shit I need to get done! So, time to be productive.
Got to have some fun last weekend doing the first photo shoot for @mossyskull.bsky.social debuting their new suit Rust. Also got to play around with a new prism lens!
Now I just need to find a Sonic or two...

Here we have five creatures in the mist of a #fursuitfriday just staring at us,
Aria, a blue artic wolf looking at a Gameboy Mizzy the panda is holding. It has a camera attachment on top of it
Here at LincFurs, we are always amazed to see photographers using the latest technology for taking photos.
Like here, we can see @ariathearcticwolf.bsky.social interested to see how they've came out on Mizzy's.... GameBoy camera!?!
Happy #FursuitFriday all!

A large quantity of fursuiters posed around a triangular water feature within the Leeds business district.
What's that you say? You all had so much fun last month that you want us to do ANOTHER meet?
Well, as you've all been good, I guess we'll have to agree!
Why not join us at Lazy Lounge / Leeds Postal Service tomorrow from 12!

You so purdy.
The time has come, we're now less than a week away!
Our next furmeet will take place on April 19th at Funnyboyz Liverpool! For the first time in a while we have managed to secure exclusive access to this fantastic venue, with a dedicated fursuit lounge and quiet space!

And this would be different from your other accounts, how?
Had a lovely evening with @infernalxantin.bsky.social, Lincoln has good sushi now! :0
The few years we've been having? I think that's the least of our worries.
That's it, just stop thinking about swirls... Stop thinking swirls... Stop thinking. That's it. Just stop thinking Miko...

Thanks to those who joined our uphill excursion for last weekends meet!
We've seen some fantastic photos come from it, like this glorious one of Kibs surrounded by greenery - hopefully with no intention of eating it.

Am I allowed the 1st one twice...?
Haven't done a #FursuitFriday for a bit, but I'm really proud of how this one came out. I'm actually starting to get a bit more of a feel for composition and such when taking pictures.
