good morning, fediverse! :agooglebee:
how are you doing today? i'm feeling pretty good.
i think we are going to revive #fedidraws soon, probably as a monthly prompt. i'm hoping to get a prompt up for june.
does anyone have any ideas or suggestions for themes they'd like to see? i've got a few ideas rattling around, but always love to hear input from others.
as always in the past (and check out @nprofile…vyrm for more information), this is not something where we're trying to compete or be the best or work the hardest to show off, it's just a way for us to flex our creative muscles and do some doodles that we might otherwise not find an excuse to do! even if you just scribble something in pen, it's just about having fun! so if you're new, please don't feel intimidated.
for me, personally, i have a lovely ipad pro, i have procreate, but i suck at ever finding the motivation to make anything, so i try to use this as my excuse to actually sit down and draw something with actual layers and actually throw some colors on it. (i hate coloring.) here are some of my previous #fedidraws submissions. i've been having fun going back and seeing some of the old ones. we have some really talented people on the fedi. :cry:
anyway! i hope you have a good day today. :3 the week is flying by and as usual, i have procrastinated more than anything else, so i guess i will try to actually do some work for once.
:comfyartist: :agooglehearts:

and you're right. it's sad that certain groups of people feel like they should be above commentary, and anyone who tries to test that should be subject to basically just complete cancellation on every level. i accidentally mistyped the kfcc url this morning, and immediately the search engine was bringing up paragraphs of AI-generated summaries about how problematic and transphobic and violent and horrible KF is because it's 2026 and you literally can't even look it up anymore. they literally don't even want you to be able to SEE opposing thoughts. and that's how i ended up here writing to you at all, because i fucking googled something in 2019 and google brought up a KF thread, lolol. but they can't crush people down forever, and i feel like the more they try, the more people are going to get fed up and come looking for places where they CAN express themselves and call out shit that is upsetting or unnatural or maybe even offensive to THEM. cause yeah, it IS kind of offensive to rename women to "people who can have babies" and "people who can have periods" and "people who have uteruses" and shit like that.
so i'm glad that the kiwi rose from the ashes once again. :kiwi_dumbbell: thank you so much for your kind words.

good morning, kiwis!
i'm really crabby today and i don't even know what to blogpost about, so instead i thought maybe we could share some useful resources for the newfags. welcome, newfags! are you all still around after the initial novelty wore off? looks like the public timeline is popping a little!
https://emojos.in/kiwifarms.cc <- this is a list of ALL of our emotes on one page. it can be helpful to bookmark.
@nprofile…8frz <- this is the best image bot to follow and no i won't accept competitors
@nprofile…vyrm <- we used to do weekly/monthly themed art events where anyone could submit their arts. i would definitely be game to revive it if we got people who want to participate.
https://matrix.to/#/#semperfidelis:matrix.org <- this is our unofficial fedi matrix chat. it's just people hanging out talking shit and about life and stuff, but if you're looking for just a casual chat to hang out in, by all means feel free to check us out.
"i'm getting red bar errors" <- yeap. it's okay, just ignore them. if you're writing a long post and they're popping up, consider copying your text before you submit.
"someone posted a bad thing and i don't like it" <- then mute or block them and move on, don't report that shit. crunk is an amazing admin who has always maintained a pretty hands-off approach, which is for the best because you don't come on the fediverse for censorship. go to bluesky or something for that. think of the fediverse like the shadowy underside of the light web. you're probably going to see some shit you don't like because people who feel overly censored across the internet will gather here. yes, even those people.
"the search doesn't work well" <- it sure doesn't and it never has. this is one of the downsides of a federated social network. the more you interact with people from other instances, the more those instances will federate with us and you'll be able to see more stuff.
..what else? does anyone have any questions about how things work? or do any other oldfags have any suggestions for new users who have just begun to use the fedi? this is probably very unnecessary but the caffeine kicked in. :ablobcatcoffee:

@nprofile…kgtr woowww, six miles, good for you!
it's mostly cause i take antidepressants and it seems like that makes it a lot worse. >.< it's annoying and embarrassing cause once it starts, it's like it won't stop until i totally stop everything and just rest for a good while. but today i wore like a thick headband and that actually helped a lot.

@nprofile…kgtr yeah!!! :blobinlove: at first i felt so self conscious like working out in public cause i felt like people would be judging me for being sweaty and then i realized that they're all sweaty too and that they're not thinking about me at all. and every little bit helps, it's not like i have to run a triathlon! have you still been doing your runs?

2026-05-16 19:36:07 UTC

how's it hanging, fediverse~? :acat: it's caturday!!
i don't really think i need to start blogposting my life every single day again. but today i'm wired because i worked out and had a big coffee and i feel like typing to you.
i'm a Health Bitch now, did you know? it's kind of new territory for me. i've always been quite a homebody and didn't eat super great, but i've really been trying to turn things around for the past half a year or so and it feels really good. i've been trying to like.. care about protein and macros and stuff and i've been dutifully tracking everything and it makes me feel accomplished and actually sort of proud of myself, like i can actually do something to help myself instead of just sitting around feeling miserable. this morning i woke up groggy with awful cramps, but i took an ibuprofen and i went out into the sunshine and worked up a sweat and it actually helped!
..jesus christ. i've been back for less than forty-eight hours and i'm already talking about periods. nope. that's not going to be a recurring theme.
anyway, what else is going on? i own an little aquarium now, like a real one, not just a jar of snails and ostracods (although of course i still have that too). i just got some little shrimps for it last weekend, and now a week has passed and 1.) they're still alive and 2.) one of them moulted. :surprisedpika: they're really cute and fun to watch and i worry every day that they don't get enough food so i'm always adding extra food, much to the delight of the fish.
for a while, i had a lot of guppies and that.. ended up to be something of a logistical nightmare. nobody told me that i was going to be dealing with some horrifying incestual rape tank if i raised guppies. the first brood of fry was cute, and then that brood grew up and i quickly realized that i had a problem on my hands. LOL. so i had to rehome my males... :comfysweat: and now my tank only has girl guppies and they've been kind of cliquey ever since i introduced a new tetra and they're not sure what to make of him. but finally they're starting to school around a little bit.
it's very relaxing and fun to watch the little ecosphere in there. it does suck when i go out of town, though. one more thing to stress about not being home to take care of.
anyway... i hope you are having a good day, anon. :3 do you have any fun weekend plans? i did all my chores and now i had a weed gummy and i'm ready to relax and watch a movie with chat in a little bit. :agooglerainbowheart: go enjoy your saturday! get some vitamin D! eat some protein! :agooglesnail:

@nprofile…dcn3 @nprofile…l5m0 i saw this when i was trying to search him up, but i don't really think that person is correct and it sounds like they got their urban legend wires crossed. i remember rusty crab and that wasn't steven. they existed at the same time and i don't think he was playing chess in that many dimensions at that time.

:gyate_kogasa_tears:
i was really sad that i would never even be able to say goodbye to this account.
i had a few solid weeks of downtime to reflect on my time here and i was feeling very sad that it might never come back.
love you, fedi.. and love you, kfcc.
