I woke up today to the sound of rain hitting the windows. I peeked through the blind - wow, a vertical wall of water! It felt like salvation after weeks of relentless heatwave. I don't particularly like summer; here in the UK, the heat is worse than in many places, because the humidity makes every step feel like waddling in soup. But now, the air is finally crisp and fresh, and I can breathe again. The light changes too; the sun is lower in the sky, casting dramatic shadows that make everything look like a painting. What's that? Sweaters? Well, duh! Sweaters are the best! I love the texture of wool, and my cardigans still carry a faint smell of the laundry detergent from when I retired them. (Also, thick socks. Also flat caps!) Fall just seems to be the most comfortable time of year for me - cozying up with books, drinking hot chocolate, and watching the leaves turn from green to yellow and then to orange. And the food! Pumpkin spice everything! Extra cinnamon, warm soups

Hi everyone! 👋 @vagrantscout from the @Community team here. Back on September 18th, I visited Anthro SoCal 2026 to check out the scene and it was epic! 🐾 From hanging with DeviantArt members to meeting amazing new artists, I was completely immersed in the Anthro / Furry universe all afternoon. Here’s a look back at all the fun that was had at this year’s con! [DEVIATION] [DEVIATION] [DEVIATION] The star of the show 🌟 DeviantArt senior member @The-SixthLeafClover was nice enough to let me hang out at her booth to meet some deviants and hand out some swag. She was a total rock star at the convention with the largest booth in the Dealer’s Den and a constant stream of people visiting. She even got to design the official tank top for the convention, so cool! 😎 The Fursuits were FIERCE! 🐺 I’m always amazed by the artistry that goes into fursuit design, but this year’s offerings were just stunning. New innovations in cooling, mask automations, tech integrations, and just so many different

[DEVIATION] Tiny, round, and with absolutely squishable cheeks, it's no wonder why hamsters are adored and have inspired many de-de-de-de-dances and memes. Nibble by nibble, Alicante-Design will teach you how to create a furry friend of your very own.   [DEVIATION] Step 1 Start with a soft oval shape for the head. [DEVIATION] Step 2 Add a slightly larger circle under the body. Round. [DEVIATION] Step 3 Place two half-circles on top of the head for the ears. [DEVIATION] Step 4 Place two small circles at the bottom of the body for the feet. Hammies really just are a series of orbs, huh? [DEVIATION] Step 5 Lightly sketch guiding crosshairs across the head to help you place the face symmetrically. [DEVIATION] Step 6 Add two big eyes, a tiny nose, and a small mouth. Remember: If the mouth looks like a sideways three, that there's a cutie! [DEVIATION] Step 7  Draw two small oval shapes on the belly circle for the paws. [DEVIATION] Step 8 What in the Pikachu? Add two big

[DEVIATION] Live long and prosper because it's Star Trek Day! 60 years ago today, on September 8th 1966, the first episode of Star Trek aired in the United States of America. "The Man Trap" saw the crew of the USS Enterprise encountering a mysterious space vampire on an alien planet. Funny thing about this episode? It wasn't even the actual pilot episode of Star Trek! After a failed first pilot episode was rejected as "too brainy" for audiences, a rare second pilot episode secured the show's future; but even that pilot wasn't aired until the third episode of season 1. "The Man Trap" won out as it featured distinct sci-fi elements, a mysterious alien monster, and showcase the main trio of Kirk, Spock, and McCoy. Who knew!   In honor of this stellar anniversary, I have a galaxy full of fun Star Trek facts, fictions, and fantasies for you to enjoy below. Set phasers for fun! Beyond Antares is a song written for Nyota Uhura [ Nichelle Nichols] and was originally sung accompanied by the
