The only detail about him that I've made public is that he's ace like me XD
kraest.bsky.social
I mean, I also don't like to be perceived or people knowing stuff about me (it makes me uncomfortable) lol
He's not actually my fursona, he's just a public face character that I came up with because I got tired of people being thirsty about my fursona.
kraest.bsky.social
There are no details to share about him other than what you can see, because knowledge is power and everyone is powerless for him XD
kraest.bsky.social
So before you ask any more, an important part of him is that he's built on the main concept of cosmic horror: you're not allowed to know, because to know is to understand, and to understand is to be able to control, and he can't be controlled XD
kraest.bsky.social
In what regard? He's a cryptid, a skulldog with hooves, an anomaly, inevitable, all of the above, none of the above XD
kraest.bsky.social
I dunno, just use the pronouns people want you to use, maybe. That's all.
kraest.bsky.social
Like, okay he's just pixels and has no feelings to consider, but again, he's my character, he's my public face, he's how I'm presenting myself to y'all, and he uses the same pronouns I do, which I have publicly listed.
kraest.bsky.social
He was talking about how being "well meaning" means nothing when you're actively ignoring information you've been given.

And I get that [_] is just a character, but he's my character, and every time I post about him I use his pronouns, but people only ever use they/them for him despite that.
kraest.bsky.social
I remember a tiktok I saw a few years ago with a trans guy who presented as fairly androgynous only because still he looked pretty feminine and didn't have access to hrt, but was talking about how even people who knew he used he/him still used they/then for him, and he absolutely hated it.
kraest.bsky.social
Also, just putting this out there - [_]'s pronouns are he/him. Everybody refers to him with they/them, that is not the case, it never has been and never will be. I know the general etiquette is to refer to someone with neutral pronouns until you know, but I used his pronouns in the post ffs.
kraest.bsky.social
[_] doesn't do mornings...or underwear. If he did wear boxer briefs, this is kinda how that would go.
A skulldog with hooves named [_] (pronounced "[_]"), wearing boxer briefs, and because he has a giant fuckin horsecock, his giant fuckin horsecock is sticking out the leg. He's holding a coffee mug in his left hand, and his right hand is resting on his waist. He's looking a little groggy because he just woke up, and he's saying "...mornin".

"Oh but I cant afford to pay an artist blah blah bla-"

Hun. Think about all the legendary album covers that have just been text on a plain bg, or just a photo. I understand the impact that a beautifully illustrated album cover can have, but it doesn't NEED to be that.

Respect artists. FUCK AI.

Symptoms of dehydration that I'm nearly constantly experiencing:
Headaches
Very dry hands
Mild dizziness
Fatigue
Heart palpitations
Poor comprehension

...so what I'm saying is stay hydrated. You also stop feeling as thirsty as you get into your mid-30s, so...keep an eye on that and drink up. XD
kraest.bsky.social
Someone of my size and weight should be drinking around 2 litres of water a day to stay properly hydrated, and I try to, but I usually end up drinking about half that, unless I'm playing my drums.
kraest.bsky.social
Something you're not warned about by your doctor when you're diagnosed with hypothyroid: you kinda stop feeling thirsty, and keeping hydrated becomes a conscious effort. I don't feel as thirsty or drink anywhere near as much water as I should and I'm constantly dehydrated.

Dude just came up to me while I was on my porch and asked me first for gasoline, then money for gas when I told him I didn't have any :/
kraest.bsky.social
Same thing happened to me when I was on antidepressants. The benefits were pretty minimal and weren't anything I couldn't do on my own with focused effort, and the physical side effects weren't worth what little benefit I got

All around the country, coast to coast
People always say “what do you like most?”
I don’t wanna brag, I don’t wanna boast
I always say
“I like toast”
kraest.bsky.social
Yeah, holding it in my hands had a real finality to it that I wasn’t expecting

The physical copy of Homecoming finally arrived and I needed to get photos of it for the advertisement on the bandcamp page, so naturally, I went with something silly.

A CD case sitting on a shelf. Beside the case is a small Poochyena plush with a leather bracelet around his neck like a collar. The same CD case now open to show the CD inside, the tips of Poochyena’s ears only barely visible behind the case
kraest.bsky.social
I don't think they are? I do add all of them to my engagement farmer block list though XD
kraest.bsky.social
See, I'm fine just blocking them like "nah you're not ready for this" XD
kraest.bsky.social
Literally every single time I post a photo of something completely innocuous, like my cat or some pretty clouds, I'm completely swamped with follows from really hardcore porn accounts within a day. What the fuck is with that. Kindly fuck all the way off, please.
