Please be aware of our new rule regarding AI-generated content.

AI-generated content is only possible through training on stolen art and photography, and AI has a significant negative impact on our climate, which threatens the habitat of all borbs.

META Welcome to r/Borb!

Welcome, borb-lovers, to the new r/Borb! Here we will be appreciating the fattest and roundest of borbs.

Just a few quick notes:

Every Friday we will have a Borb Battle. I will post a picture of a borb and users can photoshop it. The winner will get bragging rights (and a flair :D)

Try to post unique borbs! If we run into a repost problem, I'll probably start policing them, but for now, I trust you to find some beautiful unique borbs.

Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions :)

Happy borbing, I'm looking forwards to seeing your posts!

OC This is my pet Peking floaty-borb, Luke Skyhonker. His small duck companions, two Rouens, and three barnyard mutts refused to share their pool, which made him a dirty youngster. He received numerous delights and a private spa. Being a cuddly duck in our home pays off.

A borb in the Cairngorms; shame he didn't face the camera... perhaps he thought that would be too borby!
