Tybalt visits one of the many settlements that populate Carabas, the domain he oversees. He's about to place his necklace hotel down so people can finish or begin their journeys.
#furryart #macrofurry

Giant purple cat man in very skimpy clothing stands in the moonlight over a golden desert, with a populated settlement near a water source below him.

A close up of the settlement, which took a long time to design and draw because there was no frame of reference to work from.

NEW: Hawaii's Supreme Court keeps releasing opinions that denounce the U.S. Supreme Court.

The latest? A new ruling that requires the police to record all interrogations from now on.

The author took it as an opportunity to say Hawaii's court will protect due process—while SCOTUS isn't:

Hawaii Supreme Court Expands Rights of Defendants, and Once Again Rebukes SCOTUS - Bolts

Hawaii justices ruled that their state constitution requires police to record interrogations. And they vowed to protect due process for Hawaiians—unlike, they said, the Roberts Court.

Yeah, most of the legume family is able to do this kind of thing, particularly the ones that form nodules in the roots that house the bacteria responsible for it, even creating a legume form of hemoglobin to regulate oxygen levels within the nodules.

You can also grow beans on them, because they provide support, and the beans (being legumes) are able to get nitrogen out of the atmosphere and into a usable fertilizer in the soil.

yeah i'm gonna also agree
I should have also prefaced "north" american instead.

AXEL LYCAN @axellycan.bsky.social · 11h

You're correct here, it's just that what I'm saying is less that they should necessarily be considered the same etymologically, but perhaps that they are more functionally similar things developed apart from each other. Culinary covergent evolution.

AXEL LYCAN @axellycan.bsky.social · 11h

Yeah, thus why I think "chili" and "curry" are very similar in that respect, and generally serve the same kind of function. I've had some real soupy-ass chili before, so it's also got a variety of texture and forms, too.

AXEL LYCAN @axellycan.bsky.social · 11h

I think there's a distinction between curry sauce and curry (meal) here. For example: Chicken Tikka Masala isn't a sauce, it's "a curry". Thai curries are very soupy in comparison but are still "curry", etc.

I've been wondering why Dominion Voting Systems suddenly reached settlements with Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and One America News.

Turns out, it's been purchased by a Republican-owned election tech firm that insisted on it, per Axios.

Pope Leo is spitting.

www.npr.org/2025/10/09/n...

Leo questioned a world where the wealth of the elite grows
"exponentially" while many "millions of people die of hunger or survive in conditions unfit for human beings." He also criticized "ideologies that defend the absolute autonomy of the marketplace and financial speculation,"
with false promises "that a free-market economy will automatically solve the problem of poverty."

Leo described a "new tyranny," which shuns any kind of oversight and where the economy is structured "in such a way that sacrifices are demanded of the masses in order to serve the needs of the powerful." The poor, he wrote, are only allowed "drops that trickle down."

The pope openly challenged "prosperity theology" and called Christians to the practice of giving charity. "It will not solve the problem of world poverty, yet it must still be carried out, with intelligence, diligence and social responsibility," he wrote.

Popular movements that challenge "the empire of money," invite people to take on the cause to combat poverty alongside the poor, instead of on their behalf, and "make history," the pope said. It our duty, Leo said, to "make their voices heard, albeit in different ways, in order to point out and denounce such structural issues, even at the cost of appearing foolish or naïve."

Serious shoutout to furries for being the internet's #1 art patrons. At a time when interest in original and niche art is at an all time low and many other art spaces are gone, I appreciate you guys showing up to boost original works, buy art pieces & comms, & get vocally invested in stories & OCs.
