L'époque où la neige tombait encore sur les sites internet... Peut-on y revenir ?

Cosmo and Tinkoo accidentally let goats into the area where they grew their annual supply of fucks, and now they have none to give.

Pica Takes New York

Whew, it's finally done, felt like I was going mad at times, drawing so many squirrels!
I don't think I've draw so many characters in a single picture before...

Originally the plan was just drawing one picture of 16 people and be done before Squirrel Appreciation Day which was Sunday, but... I ended up drawing almost double with an whole second image 

I got to say, it was VERY interesting to draw this one... for a few reasons, as ended up painting a background, in more detail than I generally do and in a style I enjoy making.
But I also noticed that most people that signed up had brown/orange characters, most squirrels are also kept in an "earthy" sort of colour scheme? brown, gray... and also all have green eyes!
There were only two with completely different colours like a purple one, and a blue-ish green one!
I found that very interesting as I've seen other fursonas with more fantasy colours...

Studios already lost writers', SAG strikes. Time to surrender

As a disastrous summer for the industry's top brass bleeds into fall, it's become clear the AMPTP cannot win the strike. So they should end it now to cut their losses.

I'm not going to get snarky on the Burners currently stuck in the mud, but I will say it was an ill-fated camping trip in 1980 where our desert campsite was flooded out and left me trapped in a old, weird-smelling VW mini van with only a MAD magazine to stave off boredom that turned me against camping forever.

Billionaires love to claim that they've bootstrapped themselves into existence. But the truth is that billionaires are *socially made*.

How do we know that? Because we can use the social distribution of income to predict their numbers.

I use data for income inequality to show that billionaires are socially made.
