Contributors this month include 2cross2affliction, dronon, earthfurst, GreenReaper, and Rakuen Growlithe.

earthfurst: On April Fools' Day, e621's forum posts and upload comments were in uwu speak.

earthfurst: April 2 news: Arizona is about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users, or be at a risk of lawsuits. e621 operates out of Arizona, so the law would certainly affect it if it passes. [Update: Vetoed.]

GreenReaper: "Non-credible" threat caused Motor City Furry Con evacuation for second year running.

GreenReaper: Eastern Michigan University gets its own bomb threat after Motor City Furry Con; police are investigating a potential connection.

Rakuen Growlithe: Scientists have a 20 minute "conversation" with a whale. There was a sustained exchange using whale recordings but the meaning of the sounds remains unknown.

Rakuen Growlithe: After trees that died due to ash dieback were removed, dormice in the Forest of Dean had a disrupted habitat. Forestry England then built them rope bridges for them to travel between trees.

dronon: The trailer for Thelma the Unicorn.

2cross2affliction: Bloody horse runs wild through the streets of London. (Like, literally, not the British expletive.)

GreenReaper: Another move is due for Flayrah; to a cheaper, ~40% faster server with 64GB RAM, running a Xeon E5-1630 v3 @ 3.8Ghz. Some downtime is expected.

dronon: The trailer for 200% Wolf.
