To people who go “remember me?” to a fursuiter in dark loud dance environments: what’s your endgame in quickly leaving if I don’t remember instantaneously? If you know we’ve met, you could always offer context. I lack perfect memory recall and face recognition through a fursuit head.

Ever since July, my battery has been pinned at 0%, only having a little bit of time to charge to 3% before being pounded back to 0% again. Just lots of random events (that, in themselves, wouldn’t be overwhelming) coinciding nonstop so far. Still need lots of recharge time.

Who out there makes kigus? I’ve been looking to do a cheetah one, but I don’t know of any makers who would do such a thing.

The dilemma I’ve been facing for months: If I do art, I become socially isolated and no housework gets done. I’d love to do more art, but the social scene here requires more time than I have left over if I make any art at all, so I acquired a new fear over making stuff.

I’m one of the lucky 10000 to discover that, in Sweden, an elevator is called “hiss.” Hard not to think about that game “Control” :D

If only weed were legal here wtffff wow

Where I’m staying in Stockholm is a heck of a stress reducer so far. Such a good vibe of a place!

EF was a blaaaaast! I’m glad I got to be there for Big Blue Fox’s set which lasted till 5 AM :D now watching the sunrise in Hamburg!

I was spotted by Tristan while taking that space cat drink pic :D

FOUND SUIT BROTHER Mifflin!

Whoaaa it me in drink form!

What good breakfast places would yall recommend along some train lines in Hamburg? I have one place in mind but I’d be curious to hear more. Perhaps a nice bakery or eggs :3

I might do the rave at EF again, but only if I can find some people to do some things with afterwards! like explore around down and see the night life. I hear lots of Döner places are open around here :3

The dance tonight was GREAT. I had a blast and it’s 1:30 AM and I’ve still got so much pent up energy. Shame about the trains though. Basically have to Uber back or walk lugging wet fursuit stuff. Anyone doin anything? I may go back on foot without fursuit and say hi :3

I’m saving my energy for the dance and rave tbh! Enough of interesting Europe to see during the day

Going to EF in the middle of a larger trip to Europe realizing I am exhausted. Just noooo energy left. No more spoons to give.

The space boat was craaazy. Passing by container ships and seeing their night lights passing in the background, their gantry cranes moving about loading shipping containers, was kinda humbling. Seeing all that amount of trade in action towering over us. Also the music and vibes were explosively good

Man Eurofurence throws an amazing boat party (ft. @swishchee.bsky.social and @kigufox.bsky.social)

I’ve gotta say, EF’s proximity to interesting things makes it quite the good fursuit photo spot 🤔

Soooo who’s gonna be at EF? I’ll be there 👌

Hi funicular!

bsky asking “what’s up”

Amsterdam is so quiet that you find yourself complaining about loud fat bicycle tires 🤔

So how do yall even pronounce this

Hiked in Golden Gate Canyon State Park this morning with @swishchee.bsky.social Felt like very varied terrain for such a short trail, and had incredible views.

Oof. My desire to draw may have hit a potential permadeath. Things suddenly put all of the stuff I’ve been doing into perspective.

I’ll be opening commissions again with some restrictions, just for time’s sake. Thinking about having it more closely intertwined with VRChat, maybe do an avatar photo sesh and make it a painting ;3

I’m thinking about opening for commissions again, but with a premise of “come to me with a thing you wanna depict” instead of the blank canvas artistic liberty kinda thing. Very difficult for me to conjure context to characters in a total vacuum like that. Just be on the lookout for another form.

"Whoa, it's really raining out there!" commission for @seeker.gay and @nissoumutt.bsky.social sheltering in the jeep and enjoying some Cat Quest instead :D

I'm streaming art on my discord for anyone who may be interested.

Does anyone have a good guide for combining audio in Voicemeeter so that I can stream an OBS screen and audio have audio streaming? The audio comes from a different application. All of my attempts convert my headphones to single-channel. I have been trying to solve this instead of streaming art.

Oh yeah btw I've been doing more drawing/streaming in a low key manner on my twitch discord channel specifically. Just slowly working on the commission stuff :3

Oops all chees @furryweekend.com flic.kr/s/aHBqjChXFp

FWA definitely showed me the limits of con size. I wanted to say hi to soooo many more people, but there was simply no time to do so. If you saw me, and I appeared aloof and distant, it was because my energy was spread thin! Looking to do more of my own stuff to get that mental energy back.

Man, I am in a constant state of overstimulation. Way too much stuff happening. Brain’s running on fumes from a deluge of huge scheduled events. I need a nothing weekend, at least. Probably way way more.

Overall I’d say FWA was excellent and I came away from it feeling better than before! Also it’s an example of a con where you can still find things to do even if certain planned events go unexpectedly! I got the sense that staff were doing their best to handle the huge numbers of people.

Suuuuuper good night despite lots of plans shifting around! Lots of good chaos to roll with >:3

Concrete playground tho

I gave up on waiting in line for the moonlight festival. I don’t see the point of a virtual queue with times on it.

this whole place is crazy

Having lots of difficulty right now. Feeling like nothing I do matters. Been working so hard daily and nightly to stay on top of what life's been asking from me. It's just not good enough. I want to see my friends more. I wish I had the time. It just keeps piling up.

commission for Geneec on FA and VRChat! this was a fun one to do. I really enjoy big urban environments. and foxes.

picarto.tv/swishchee finishing up this nude fox commission :3

The VR portal that @vancoufur.bsky.social had set up in VRChat was excellent. The idea to put the portal in the dance PLUS pipe the stereo feed from the dance into the VR world teleported people into the con who wouldn't have otherwise been able to see it. More cons should do that :D

Second attempt posting this. This was a commission for @damienthelion.bsky.social
