I love my timbs so much!

Ian “Apollo” Gray @iangray.bsky.social · 5d

These are my new Timbs from @lobitoworks.bsky.social; y’all haven’t seen ‘em on me yet because I haven’t had much of a chance to suit because of my move, but they’re incredible. I CANNOT WAIT to debut ‘em SOON!

This past weekend we celebrated my husband’s 70th birthday. This is me making dinner for 22 people and looking way more confident about it than I actually was. Thankfully, everything came out edible and even had some fans.

ANTHROCON was straight up magical this year, cant properly express how special all of you made this! Room Party is one for the ages. It deserves the reception it got. Thank you for letting me be a dog. 🐕🐾🐶🐕‍🦺

Socrates might be right, the un-com-covered life is not worth living.

I might spent *too* much time thinking about non-normative Queer sex and not enough time *having* non-normative Queer sex.

I wonder how Jose Muñoz would feel about that.

Every time I see @tullem.bsky.social out taking pictures during the NY Furwalks I ask I myself:

How can one fur be this gorgeous and this talented all at once?

Also, HOW MUCH PRACTICE DOES IT TAKE TO SUIT AND TAKE PICS AT THE SAME TIME????

BEYOND excited to have this real big Brucie in "Room Party: Furry Art At The Beginning of the World" at Bunker Projects in Pittsburgh.

I did a residency there almost 6 years ago; feels like an incredible full circle moment to have such an important show in this space. A must-see if youre at AC!

Jake thinks Chance looks mighty fine in jeans, do you guys think so too? 🐱🍆👖

Chance Furlong and Jake Clawson (of Swat Kats fame) both wearing jeans. Chance is blushing that Jake is teasing him for having a bit of belly on him, and also for how good he looks topless in jeans. Both are sporting boners and looking at one another.

new propaganda campaign just dropped
#furry #art #sfwfurry

An illustration styled like an old propaganda poster. A generic white guy in a suit is shaking hands with a generic furry poodling in a white-tank top and leather harness. There is red text reading "SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL FREAK TODAY" between them and "THEY'RE JUST LIKE YOU!" below them.
