DD Round-up: January 2024 by BeckyKidus, journal

I am letting know that Edward Cates, AKA Barosus, went to Heaven early this morning. I am sorry to all of his friends. This is his wife, Marcie. He will be missed by the community. I am not going to close his account. His family misses him so much that words cannot express the emotions we are going through.

Got a TOS warning from staff. The climate concerning voicing disapproval of LLM use is getting harsher. If I get suspended I can be found under the same username on FA and BSky.

Heave a paw! Big thanks to @beckykidus for featuring the Laserfang as a Daily Deviation!

I have no intention of leaving dA, but with the recent slew of arbitrary bans I do not trust all current staff to conduct themselves in a professional manner. If for whatever reason this account goes dark, I can be found under the same name on Fur Affinity and Bluesky. I'm also on Twitter but that place is a cesspit. If you haven't already been contaminated by it, stay clear.

you smell that? some fresh stinky feet from work, hope you enjoy

If this is how you want to be perceived, I'm not going to stop you.

(Gasp) great artworks!

I am shocked—SHOCKED—that I have never seen your work before. Never mind the top-tier technique: there's a "vintage" look to your style that I associate with the time well before the Internet. For someone who's only been here six years, your portfolio feels like a veteran's. :worship:

Thanks <3


I'm almost 40, but I'm pretty camera shy, so only got active on social media in 2017. Most of my influences are from way before that.
