Sartorially tasteless, derivative AI produced garbage, and most certainly not the type of thing to wear in public.

You can probably infer the intelligence of whoever created these from the misspelling of kilometre and the associated missing question mark in the second photo.

That’s actually quite scary - especially whilst the vehicle is in motion.

It had to be a light sabre, because I don’t believe mock Yakuza laser whips are available yet.

I’m experimenting with costume ideas for Halloween.

I’ve decided to go for a 70% Johnny Mnemonic 30% Star Wars mash-up.

Traditional Japanese robes combined with a futuristic purple light sabre gives off nice cyberpunk vibes.

William Gibson would be so proud. Now where’s my copy of Neuromancer?

A photo of me wearing Isambard - my realistic wolf fursuit. I am wearing traditional Japanese robes and holding a double-bladed light sabre. I am stood in a defensive martial arts pose.

Check out some of the local “house clearance” shops. I’ve got one near me, and they’ve got nearly new washing machines stacked to the ceiling. They’re reasonably priced as well. I got a tumble dryer that previously belonged to someone who is now in a care home.

Choooon!

Isambard Smog Wolf @smogwolf.bsky.social · 3d

That’s a wonderfully sweet photo.

A photo of me wearing Isambard, my wolf fursuit, as a mini-partial with t-shirt and jeans. Around my neck is a brightly coloured shemagh scarf. I am smiling and looking directly at the camera. My right hand paw is raised in a friendly gesture. I am indoors at York furmeet.

True deep knowledge can be quite a heavy burden to carry. 😁

I finally picked up a copy of @furscience.bsky.social

I’ve been looking forward to reading this collection of research articles for a long time.

This will be a very slow and reflective read, because I want to develop that deeper understanding of the furry community - and also myself as a furry.

A photo of the book ‘Furscience: A Decade of Psychological Research on the Furry Fandom’ published by the International Anthropomorphic Research Project’. The book cover shows an image of a blue furry anthro cartoon character, wearing a lab jacket, and holding a cartoon brain with a fox’s tail and ears attached.

It’s hard to believe that today marked my first anniversary as a regular @yorkfurs.bsky.social attendee.

In celebration of this milestone, it felt appropriate to give a nod to both Isambard’s, and the City of York’s, Viking heritage.

A photo of me wearing Isambard (my realistic wolf fursuit) with Viking clothes. I am stood looking at the camera, with my head slightly turned and showing a cheeky grin. My left hand paw is resting on my chest, and my right hand paw is resting on my hip.

I’m looking forward to seeing plenty of fursuit antics posted on BlueSky.

A photo of me wearing my fursuit head and tail, a black latex catsuit, techwear pants, a techwear shrug, with my black Ibanez Xiphos 7 string guitar strapped over my shoulder. The picture is cropped just above my muzzle, so you can't see my eyes. I'm holding the guitar with rubber gloves paws.

Author and filmmaker Justine Bateman on generative AI

"They're trying to convince people they can't do the things they've been doing easily for years - to write emails, to write a presentation. Your daughter wants you to make up a bedtime story about puppies - to write that for you." We will get to the point, she says with a grim laugh, "that you will essentially become just a skin bag of organs and bones, nothing else. You won't know anything and you will be told repeatedly that you can't do it, which is the opposite of what life has to offer. Capitulating all kinds of decisions like where to go on vacation, what to wear today, who to date, what to eat.
People are already doing this. You won't have to process grief, because you'll have uploaded photos and voice messages from your mother who just died, and then she can talk to you via AI video call every day. One of the ways it's going to destroy humans, long before there's a nuclear disaster, is going to be the emotional hollowing-out of people." - author and filmmaker Justine Bateman from a piece by Emine Saner for the Guardian

Okay. Incoming.

Very sad news.

She brilliantly lampooned snobs.

This is also a GIF you can hear.

Don’t worry. Ad hoc flirting is only level 2 of the maturity framework. Our target maturity is level 3 (a repeatable process is established). I’ll be submitting a Problem Statement to the Project Board for approval, so that I can progress to business case and funding approval.
