  • A struggle against prejudice and xenophobia on a much greater level than humans have with only one species, debates on whether it’s ethical for a couple to produce an anthro mule or other infertile hybrid, any modern mixed-species regions would need a very complex design to accommodate everyone’s different biological needs even if all the anthros are nearly the same size, the study of evolution would be a lot of fun because a diverse anthro world requires many distinct intelligent species to emerge very close in time to one another, endless other worldbuilding opportunities


  • No, and for my one-minute abridged defense:

    • Gen 1-2 definitely didn’t happen and were written by two different groups with different religious views using two different creator-god names
    • Noah’s Ark definitely didn’t happen, and the story repeats itself all the time because it crushes together the Yahwist’s and Elohist’s writing in a manner especially suggestive of natural human authorship
    • New Testament claims that the human lineage is as young as is reported in Gen 2 (Luk 3:38) and has Jesus - presumably the same entity as God - suggest multiple times in two gospels that the great flood was a real event

    That’s about enough to deconvert already, and it keeps getting worse the deeper you take things

    These are some of my favorites that you haven’t listed. I pretty much only browse TF content

    Rakisha/Tanraak does some of the best lighting and musculature work I know of, and prefers to define shapes and contours just through how they distort the shine on top of solid colors. Also a lot of cybernetics. Masterful work all around and the kind of artist I aspire to be.

    Redflare500 does a lot of shiny clothing and inanimate TFs. It’s often creepy and uncanny but just enough to add to the excitement IMO.

    Helixjack/Shinyhelix does a ton of goo content and is one of my older favorites. Over the last decade their art style has changed from being near Fox0808 to near Redflare.

    Rhaenjarr is less on the TF side, more often does creatures that were shiny to begin with. When goo shows up it’s much more viscous and weighty than most other artists’ styles, and with more diffuse reflections like the material is closer to silicone. Very good with backgrounds and scene composition. Makes me wish I had more $ for commissions




  • Nitpick: the proper term is “virtual desktop” or “workspace”, as “desktop environment” is already a common term for the software composing the entire user interface.

    I enjoy using this feature on any operating system since it lets me quickly scan through and declutter open windows, and place categories of windows in their own workspaces. I might have only productivity windows on one, and leisure and socials on another. It’s especially effective if you learn the keyboard shortcuts for navigating inside and between workspaces. All this improves my productivity and keeps distractions away.
