@ThomasZealheart @Hodosam I DONT EAT ZE BUGS!!!

@Hodosam Ask @tidebender

What do ants taste like?

@NubarqZED No one who is wise is so because they have rejected love. And no booty calls here! lol

@tidebender That, or they are older, wiser, and understand the power of a booty call is stronger.

Those who mock or underestimate the power of friendship have never experienced the love of friendship.

@ULBeowulf @marius_tygo Nah! This is why bears use trees. Granted, it’s gotta be a larger than average tree. But I’m good! :3

@tidebender @marius_tygo Oh my, need help cleaning up? You know, to clean those hard to reach spots on your back

I will beat the stinky bear allegations by being clean. I. FREAKING. LOVE. SHOWERS. Art by @marius_tygo

@TaruSucks I ALMOST CHOKED ON MY DRINK!! XD Cooking Mama vs. Baking Papa

@tidebender YALL HEARD OF COOKING MAMA NOW WE HAVE A COOKING PAPA

PREPARE THYSELVES!! More baking will be had today. I’ll be going live shortly after lunch. Cookies and scones and cinnamon rolls, oh my! Expect it to be a long stream until late this evening. Finishing up the last batch of orders and taking a few new ones! Please stay tuned.

Seriously considering leaving Twitch and just streaming in discord. Tired of the clout chasing, manipulative, and vapid furs on the platform. Streaming has always been about spending time with folks I care about in a meaningful way. Any thoughts or opinions?

You can’t see it, but I’m sitting on a swing. And while I rock back and forth with this view, I’ve got John Powell’s sublime HTTYD2 soundtrack blasting. Suspended in the air, with my legs dangling, it reminds me that this life, with all its heartaches and hurts, shall pass. TINTE

I may have forgotten my allergy pill this morning, and my arms are still aching from yesterday, but today will be a good day! Grow big or go home!

I am going to be hosting a town hall in The Guild on Wednesday evening to discuss some crazy, radical, and groovy ideas for streams... Like, zoinks, y'all. If you hang out or listen to my streams, I'd appreciate your thoughts and opinions on what I'm gonna propose. Link below.

Not beating the stinky bear allegations. I need to shower after being in the sun all day. Bleh.

Gry is a dear friend and needs commission work to not end up homeless. If you’ve loved this piece, and you’re able, please reach out to him and get a comm. And if you’re not able to, but know someone who would, please pass along. This is what community is for. Thanks, y’all!

Gonna be driving home from visiting family in about an hour. I’ll be hopping on Discord to hang. Whether you’re in the server or not, even if you’re shy, please hop on. I don’t bite. I’d love to meet and chill with you! discord.gg/qVBHBEBDb

@RolenzoArt DUDE, THIS TURNED OUT SO WELL!! When you mentioned on stream you were doing this I wasn’t imagining full illustrations like this, but more traditional comic fare. I’m glad I was wrong! This is hecking beautiful!!

Sweet moment 🍡🎇 Comm for Luseph!

The one bodybuilding pose that has always captivated my spirit, and is arguably the perfect intersection of classic yet epic, is my favourite, “the archer.” I want to have a series of prints on my wall with this pose from different artists eventually. Art by @LeafLion_

There will be ten challenges in total. Those who complete one will nave a guaranteed sticker saved for pickup at AC. The remaining 39 will be available, first come first serve, if you see me in the wild at the Con!

They will be free! BUT, they will only be available to folks going to AC26. Because, it’s also the 250th anniversary of our great nation! So expect lots of red, white, and BOOM!! I will be sharing a few fun challenges and activities leading up to AC to reserve one, if you want.

THE RUDDERBEAR IS COMING! THE RUDDERBEAR IS COMING! I am going to make two sets of stickers for AnthroCon this year. A lot of general Tide stickers for everyone! AND… Special, limited edition, stickers to coincide with 4th of July. Only 49 of them (I will have the 50th. :3)
