Last weekend was Des Moines Con, a nerdy convention, and on Saturday there was this gathering of furries!

Based on real events!

Little gathering with some birds on Saturday

Didn't know Netflix had this type of content

Happy Easter! Homemade sushi yesterday with @jakeyjaketheskunko.bsky.social

For fursuit Friday here's a champion skunk at MCFC! Recognized for competitive excellence in the sport of posing next to a big trophy

Visited a friend over the weekend to help construct a couple duct tape dummies and for grilling and movie night

Here's my haul from Motor City Furry Con! I loved the video game theme for this year. This was my second MCFC, and both had quality badge lanyards. We'll see if this notion of furry convention challenge coins takes off.

I've been playing Terraria to earn the new achievements and get that game back on my perfect Steam games list. Today my perfect games list was further reduced by three by new achievements for Going Medieval, Cities: Skylines, and Trash Goblin.

Last weekend I went to Motor City Furry Con with @jakeyjaketheskunko.bsky.social, who brought along his feline partial while I had my new corvid partial and also my skunk! We stayed near the top of the Renaissance Center! We took many pictures like these on Friday with Kota, Shadow Moon, and Mako.

I led a quick cross-border evening excursion and photo session with Jakey on day 0 of MCFC. Although I was in the area for years, I hadn't been to the Windsor waterfront before.

Traveling to Motor City Furry Con with @jakeyjaketheskunko.bsky.social

I'm getting ready to leave for Motor City Furry Con. Meanwhile here are the things I brought home from FurSquared. The big item is of course the bird head, and the sponsor-level bag is useful for holding stickers, some of which were traded at the convention.

I am back from FurSquared and am pleased to announce my new acquisition at the dealers den of this bird fursuit head from Fishbowl Fantasies. You may see me as this corvid at future conventions. This follows three episodes of missed opportunities to purchase an avian head, so quite fortunate.

Saturday at FurSquared, RenFur, I did more suiting as a Templar skunk, met many friends, and attended panels and meets about cartoons, trains, Pokémon, and lagomorphs.

I'm at FurSquared enjoying the Ren Fur. Yesterday we did registration, opening ceremonies, bird meet, dinner with birds, and room party (which included many birds). Also ten steps into dealers den I made a big purchase to be shared later.

I'm getting ready to leave for FurSquared, my first time attending this convention. This year they went with a Renaissance theme. The following weekend is Motor City Furry Con, which for the first time will be at the Renaissance Center!

Happy new year! I hosted a party with some local goofballs!

Here's an assortment of MFF 2025 pictures I haven't posted yet before we get to 2026!

"There is a playable demo for the new Star Trek: Voyager game" sounds like a sentence from 2001, but we said it in 2025. Again, what a time to be alive.

The opening lyrics of Brick by Ben Folds Five are: 6 am Day after Christmas

Here's the haul from Midwest FurFest 2025. It's heavy with stickers after bigger acquisitions at AnthroCon. I collected each of the eight convention cards at MFF just like last year but didn't find out about them until the second day of the convention.

It's the last day of MFF 2025, and unfortunately there will be snow to contend with on the way back. We're trying to enjoy the remaining time here, but meanwhile here are more pictures with the crew including Mayo's new suit!

I wanna make so many birds :) There will be a time soon where perhaps I can make you a bird :)))

Midwest FurFest, Friday, December 5, Avian Meet and Beak. I squawked at many birds as a vulture gryphon. The cat is @jakeyjaketheskunko.bsky.social.

Thursday at Midwest FurFest! I'm in the main hotel again, but this time the room for my party of four came with more than one bed.

May your Thanksgiving be happy with friendship and good food! Me, @jakeyjaketheskunko.bsky.social, Ammo, Dean, @lightmywildfire.bsky.social, Caust, @qbnuki.bsky.social, and @endeavrawr.bsky.social looming over the feast

Fursuit Friday time! Sharing a popsicle (fan) with @codenamefreedom.bsky.social at Anthrocon 2025 before I bought my own

Antics for fursuit Friday, skunk on the golf course, skillfully putting. Recorded by @blackerst.bsky.social while we were playing at the annual Cedar Rapids furry minigolf gathering with @jakeyjaketheskunko.bsky.social and @valk.gay

I had a good time Saturday at the annual furry Cedar Rapids minigolf event again organized by @jakeyjaketheskunko.bsky.social. I did some putting as a skunk!

Multiple friends on Steam yesterday alerted me that a bot account copying my profile name, picture, and description is trying to add them as friends. If you get a friend request from an account that is two-years old with 3200+ hours in Counter-Strike 2, that activity is not from me.

A completely different playlist from another shift working from home. Perhaps someday I'll compile ten hours worth of video game background music I'm nostalgic for and use it on more shifts.

Stuff I came home from Furry Migration 2025 with including a couple convention shirts, many things from the scheduled sticker swap, and ten stickers by @aetusart.com

Fursuit Friday! After stepping out of the dead dog dance at Furry Migration I was still wagging my skunk tail! Recorded by Grapes Deer

A cute skunk named Pelican booped Sadie's snoot and it was nothing but curl wags from then on ~ #furrymigration #FM2025

I'm back from my first ever Furry Migration and had a lot of fun at a bird room party, running into cute furs and birds in the lobby and dealer's den, shaking my skunk tail on the dance floor, and saw success co-hosting my first meet & greet! Our Sunday morning Iowa meet saw at least 45 attendees.

I'm at Furry Migration, and tomorrow at 11am @jakeyjaketheskunko.bsky.social and I will be hosting a meet and greet for furs from Iowa! Attendance from all Iowa people at this convention is expected.

"Why did you choose our bank? Was it our community focus, convenient locations, low fees, or our reputation?" Me: "Cute animal mascot."

Today I unlocked myself as a playable character in Star Racer! Beyond being a vehicle to demonstrate peak pelican performance, the game is a lot of fun!

I've been playing Star Racer and working on unlocking myself as a playable character. It looks like I'm close to seeing the challenge race.

The full release of Star Racer, the retro-inspired, sci-fi, fast-paced racer, is here, and in this game you can play as me! That's right - I'm an unlockable character with my own ship. In the 1.0 trailer you can even catch a few glimpses of Pelican; see if you recognize me!

Here is most of my haul from AnthroCon 2025 dealers room and sticker exchanges. The major items are paws for my skunk from Spilt Grape Soda, a Camp Howl corvid hoodie, a button-down with bird print from ArtSea Animal, a rocket pop fan from Limey the Cheetah, and dice from Alien Gryphon Studios.

I arrived home shortly after midnight on Tuesday morning. Here's another set of furry pictures from AnthroCon 2025 from Saturday and Sunday!

I borrowed a gryphon to wear during AnthroCon 2025 from Alex, the author of The Gryphon Generation, including for the bird meet on Saturday!

We're wrapping up Saturday at AnthroCon 2025. Later I might have some pictures from today to share, but for now here's more antics from Friday as a skunk in an Adidas track suit!

I'm at AnthroCon 2025! The second picture is of Freedom the mechanic coyote. The third has Freedom, Barbeque the skunk, and @jakeyjaketheskunko.bsky.social with his wolf partial. The fourth has Barbeque and Simon Skunk on either side of me in my recently acquired skunk partial!
