And so the first steps to the Super Secret Bunny project have been taken... now to see where it leads. I know I am slightly insane for wanting to do it, but alas, such is my lot in life.

Yeah, I've been quiet and lurking. Dark bunnies do that. But I want to wish everyone (yes, even you) a happy new year. I'm willing to bet '25 hasn't been the best, but here's to having made it through, and to '26 being at least marginally better.

Is it bad, or just a sign of the time I grew up in that the second this started I could sing along the whole way with no mistakes? youtu.be/3treMuGiCVM...

I really want more of this. youtube.com/shorts/_7Wkl...

Update 1 -- The bunny is cooking up a storm tomorrow! On the docket: -Nuclear Narwhal -Mild Mouse -Firey Fennec -Perilous Phoenix -Blasted Bat And starting the Perilous Phoenix Limited Edition ferment. Also, will have something new, special, and seasonal simmering on the extra burner.

Not a post I wanted to make, but one that is needed. US Shipping updates for Dark Bunny Sauces darkbunny.ca/blogs/news/u...

I found it a little funny at the day job yesterday. I work at a large Quebecois pharmacy chain. I changed the radio station from 100% franco to 100% canadian stuff in store. Approved music and all. So now we have some English tunes again. Then, this particular mix comes on. youtu.be/6rHngwaJKUE?...

Okay. All of the orders from Canfurence are in the Dark Bunny Trello. trello.com/b/diUUkNM0/d... If you ordered something for delivery at the convention, and do NOT see your order there, please get in touch. It IS possible that a couple were missed .

One more thing: Post @canfurence.bsky.social the Dark Bunny Cupboard of Doom has been severely depleted. Due to this over the next weeks (months?) I'll be cooking my tail off! I've opened up pre-ordering for a whole lot of things! Shortly I will be updating the DBS Trello so you can follow along!

Now for the other part of this: You all came, you all tried the sauces on the table. Which were your favourites and which would you not try again? In this business, feedback is important! This will help tweak the offerings. And please be honest, not just "Bring the heat!"

I briefly said something on Telegram but I wanted to make it all official and stuff. Thank you everyone for such an amazing weekend at @canfurence.bsky.social! MAnny and I had a blast (see what I did there?). You folks nearly cleaned us out! I hope to see you all again soon! /1

"...some bunny..." yeah, we all know who that is...

Today's musical interlude brought to you by having it run around this bunny's brain all morning... youtu.be/7Gr63DiEUxw...

To my United States friends: Stay safe. Please.

I'll likely be running the Dead Bunny at @canfurence.bsky.social‬ again, but it's a party, not just a dance! So, what do you think about having some board games and stuff? A giant sketch paper for the artists to share? The dreaded Beachball of doom? Or nothing but music and bad movies? Lemme know!

Canfurence 2025: Help wanted? darkbunny.ca/blogs/news/c...

I once again have a functional bathroom! It's been nearly 2 weeks, but the rennovations are finally done (with the exception that the medicine cabinet will need to be swapped, light on one side is cracked)! Now just to figure out how to use the new shower setup

Still ingesting coffee. But... This week's Doctor Who... the ending (and little flashes in the middle).. what?

I retired from conrunning years ago. I will still help out here and there, but will not be staff. Do I miss it? Absolutely yes. Would I do it again? No. The song that put me in this nostalgic mindframe tonight: youtu.be/UQPgCOoFARE... Pay attention to the lyrics. Take what you can from them.

Y'know... it' that time of year again youtu.be/NEmScsUkbo4...

This... honestly is better than it has any right to be. youtu.be/KPmAbERDy5A...

With all the kerfuffle going on, I wanted to clearly state that Dark Bunny Sauces is proudly Canadian. Our products are made in Canada. I cannot claim them to be a "Product of Canada" because though I do my best to select ingredients local, unfortunately I cannot always have that happen.

What's this? Dark Bunny news? Now available: Carnivore Candy, Liquid Carnivore Candy, Limited Edition Ferments of Firey Fennec and Courageous Curlytail, and a Bucket o' Bad Ideas. darkbunny.ca/blogs/news/a...

So, @furcon.bsky.social announced a mask rule. I 100% support this. Now, though I don't post on the "other place" I still read it, and the reactions to the post are... headdesking. I seriously am disheartened by the complete lack of ... brain cells? ... from some folks. *gets popcorn ready*

Oh. and coming soon: DBS's Bucket 'o Bad Ideas - the ferment is almost done, and once I caught up on orders it'll be made. Pre-orders are now open. But warning: So far this sauce contains copious amounts of hot peppers. And one bell pepper. For colour, of course. darkbunny.ca/products/buc...

Still catching up on orders but finally making headway. Hearty Horse, Babbling Bumblebee and the elusive Scorching Squynx are all stocked. As soon as I figure out HOW to send my packages during the Canada Post strike boxes'll start flowing.

Oh! Oh! Well, first, hello all of you new to Bluesky! This is for all of you: Do you remember Tweedeck? Before it became a paid service over on that otherplace. Well... there's @deck.blue deck.blue

Okay, I now have 2 words that, when spoken by narrators, make me twitch. Weigh in folks, this is for science! Pronounce these words: -Decal (Deck-al or Dee-cal) -Foyer (Foy-yay or Foy-er) I know it's mostly US pronunciations that throw me off, but... gah! Which do you use and where are you from?

Okay. If Wild Robot doesn't win any awards I will be very upset. I seriously have not been so... touched... by a film in a long time. Many misty-eye moments, and very engaging. Beautiful in more than just the art (which is stunning).

Lookit all these new followers coming in! Welcome, please ignore the mess and the pile of peppers in the corner. (They may or may not be the same thing)

Canadian earworm time. (and a very serious question) When you eat your Smarties, Do you eat the red ones last? Do you suck them very slowly, Or crunch them very fast? Eat that candy-coated chocolate, But tell me when I ask, When you eat your Smarties, Do you eat the red ones last?

Hello all! You've seen me post about the Lucky Dog Social Club (www.kurenji.com/luckydog) coming up in a couple of weeks here in Montreal. And although DBS won't be a vendor there, we ARE taking orders for pickup at the event! And you get a discount too! darkbunny.ca/discount/Luc...

Just a reminder! If you're local to Montreal, show support and go! Supporting small local events like this will ensure we get more in the future!!!! Tickets here : www.kurenji.com/luckydog

What songs make you just want to crank the volume and zone into the music? I bet everyone has a few. A few for me: Supertramp - School youtu.be/BznKC3Umc8A?... Pink Floyd - High Hopes youtu.be/7jMlFXouPk8?... also Pink Floyd - Shine on you Crazy Diamond (the full version) youtu.be/8UXircX3VdM?...

Okay, so CanFURence was a success. I have updated the Trello board with the relevant orders, and updates to them will happen starting later today (once I go through my boxes and sort what I have). trello.com/b/diUUkNM0/d...

Yeah... what he (I?) said!

Also, IF you are pre-ordering, there is an automatic 15% discount applied to those items. According to the clock, that means there is 16 hours, and about 14 minutes to get in on this. See you all in Ottawa next weekend! www.darkbunny.ca

LAST DAY FOR @canfurence.bsky.social PRE-ORDERS I’ve decided to extend pre-ordering to midnight tonight (Sat July 27th) Not everything is on the pre-order applicable list, but a lot of them are. I am doing one last mega-cook run so I've decided to open up the pre-ordering for one more day

It's that time again! Pre-ordering for CanFURence is open until the 21st of July - get the details here: darkbunny.ca/blogs/news/c...

Damnit. Stuck in my head. And damned good to work to that I can't not loop it. youtu.be/L3bCWmqLS1M?...

It's Charity #Raffle time! I'm Nicole and I'm raising funds and awareness for men's health! Details are in the replies below! 👇👇👇

Montreal. Yesterday started with snow. Changed to sun and just above 0. Today starting at +1 degree and moving to 12. Tomorrow the same. Thursday back down to -10, then by next week back to 12. I swear this is the only city I know of that can have ALL of the seasons in the span of a couple of days.

Why not jump on the bandwagon?

If you joined Bluesky during the Beta, congratulations, you are now officially a Bluesky Elder! You will be assigned a rocking chair, a single cloud to shake a fist at, and a Chesty Gandalf Action Figure and/or Orca pool floatee while supplies last. Enjoy your new, completely inconsequential status!

Yes, against all common sense, I will be cooking a giant batch of pasta sauce for this. Last time I did that no one died... www.facebook.com/events/91651...

Little bit of positivity.

darkbunny.ca/blogs/news/n... TLDR: No DBS at FE2024 - out of choice

Makes too much sense
