The pound cake I made for work's Thanksgiving pot luck today turned out pretty well! It's probably one of the prettier cakes I have made, too. Almond and vanilla extract with cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and ginger batter with an apple cider glaze. Good stuff!

Today's episode of "terrible break room ideas": Rogue-like Programming Languages Every time you compile a project all of the reserved words change their meaning.

Thankfully my back is continuing to improve and things that caused me pain (or I couldn't do at all) even 48 hours ago feel more normal now. I was also able to move my chiropractor appointment up a week to today, which also should help. Yay progress! Catching up with hockey on DVR is nice, too. :P

Carolina Furfare 2025 Final Numbers #CFF #CarolinaFurfare $10,114 raised for charity 1,134 attendees 332 fursuiters

It is with deep regret and disappointment that I must announce that I will not be able to DJ for @carolinafurfare.bsky.social tonight. :( The con itself has been amazing and fun, but Murphy's Law was definitely in full effect for me this weekend... (1/8)

SOUND CHECK DONE! @carolinafurfare.bsky.social ARE YOU READY TO BREAK THE DANCEFLOOR TONIGHT!? Come to the Con Center dancefloor at 1am tonight for some hard techno, hard dance and hard industrial kicks! Let's make enough noise to make the mountain quake! Also shoutout @laskar.is !

This #FursuitFriday I am at @carolinafurfare.bsky.social, so have a photo of Nullstrukt from the last time this con was held in person (and also the only time Nullstrukt has been out in the snow)! Nullstrukt by @morefurlessinc.bsky.social Photo by @edgewise.bsky.social

Let the packing for CFF begin, woo!

A shutout win for Kochetkov's return to the Canes lineup? *Chef's kiss* Perfection. #CarolinaCulture

Our complete lineup for this year’s Carolina Furfare nightly dances! We can’t wait to see you on the dancefloor!! Heart your favorite DJs on the Venvi schedule App! www.carolinafurfare.org/schedule

I am happy to report that the Pansy Pot seems to be thriving. There are a few yellow blooms that are about to open that will really contribute to the color! :)

HEAR YE HEAR YE 📣 Who else is going to Carolina Furfare next weekend?! #CFF #cff25 📸 @daedalusraccoon.bsky.social

WOLFPACK WINS!!! Georgia Tech is no longer undefeated! Way to go, Pack, what an exciting game!! #GoPack #NCState #WolfpackFootball

LET'S GO WOLFPACK!!!! Oh MAN this game has been wild! #GoPack

Goodbye after work sunlight, see you next year. :/

Has everyone got their costumes ready for this Halloween edition of #FursuitFriday? Nullstrukt does! Nullstrukt by the eerily amazing @morefurlessinc.bsky.social

Islanders: "YES, we cut the lead by on--" *Canes goal horn sounds* Ha ha ha, I love it, especially because it's a second for the season for Svech. Go Canes!! #CarolinaCulture

Glad to see the Canes putting some spooky back in the game with that early third period goal! This has been a fun one so far. #CarolinaCulture

CFF is almost here and we are looking for some royal helpers for next weekend! Sign up today and have your schedule before the con event starts. Unsure if you can help now? Feel free to stop by Con-Ops during the con to lend a helping paw! www.carolinafurfare.org/volunteering

This has been the week of being perpetually tired. Weh.

Well, I didn't expect to pull some of my back muscles by just putting the pan back in my bird's cage after cleaning it this morning. Dammit. 🙃

Coming from a prehistoric era to devastate a dancefloor near you with an energetic mix of hard music styles is nullstrukt! This Dimetrodon DJ is going to bring the energy to close out the dances Sunday from 11pm - midnight, don’t miss it! www.mixcloud.com/nullstrukt/

Some scenes from what became me absolutely smashing my previous record at ZincHouse Disc Golf Course today! My one bogey was on the hole that ominously had a skull and some bones arranged on the fairway and then my Passion found about the most precarious spot for a birdie putt ever. Fun times!

Beautiful and fun evening at the State Fair tonight with some awesome friends! Seeing the sun set from the chair lift was super cool. :)

Roll out the (not quite red) carpet, it's #FursuitFriday once again! @zeddtiger.bsky.social and Nullstrukt are striking their best poses for the occasion. Photo by @jasonmiller.bsky.social Nullstrukt by the always impressive @morefurlessinc.bsky.social

Hooray, several days after planting and the Pansy Pot seems to be thriving. There are even the start of a few blossoms that weren't there when I planted them!

It's both annoying and amusing that I made the profile of a paper airplane with my 7 day sleep graph. And yes, I have been tired all week, why do you ask?

Playing disc golf the day after a longer run is apparently not a great idea. I made the same mistake last week and I am sure I will do it again later this week or next week, lol.

Over the weekend I said goodbye to the Wildflower Battle Arena (it was looking pretty ragged, and the cosmos ended up winning) and put some new plants in for the winter. Say hello to the Pansy Pot! (Yes, apparently whatever I put in this planter needs a ridiculous name)

FIVE. IN. A. ROWWWWW.

LET'S GO CANES!!!! What a nail-biter of a game, wow. #CarolinaCulture

The Canes are cooking tonight! Loved to see that last goal resulting from some amazing defensive work. #CarolinaCulture

I really appreciate that today I can use the #NoKings tag both to express my utter disdain for tyranny and also to cheer on the Carolina Hurricanes (as they play the LA Kings tonight). #CarolinaCulture (In all seriousness I love seeing all of the turnout for No Kings protests today!)

3 days in a row of disc golf, with 27 holes of an easier course sandwiched between two very long and difficult courses, and boy howdy am I tired (and a little sore), ha. The weather has been so perfect for it and my rounds have improved from day to day so that's good!

First glow ace ever at the weekly glow disc golf league tonight! Glow Z Zone just had the perfect flex to slam the chains dead center and stick. Wooo! :D

It's quite a few days past Taco Tuesday, but don't tell Nullstrukt that! #FursuitFriday Nullstrukt by the amazing @morefurlessinc.bsky.social Photo by @edgewise.bsky.social (I think? It's an older one)

One of my favorite disc golf courses in the area, Forest Ridge, is a seasonal course and it just opened back up yesterday! I played it after work today and it is still a beautiful (and HARD) course, but it also FINALLY has a practice basket. Hooray! :D

Last night I had a nightmare...if you can call it that...that was essentially, "There are too many desserts and they just keep coming!" Like, seriously brain, are you even trying anymore? I don't understand, lol

I think I asked this a long while ago, but are there any Party Animals players out there that might want to team up sometime? The solo queue is such a crapshoot and can be frustrating at times, ha ha. Or maybe I just play the game too much. :P

We’re just normal men

Woo! I think the last of the flu and COVID vaccine side effects faded away overnight and I feel back to normal today (aside from the sore arm at the injection site, but meh). I'm glad it was a short stint!

NO FLY ZONE

LET'S GO CANES!!! What a way to win! #RaiseUp

This is 100% accurate to how I feel on this #FursuitFriday after getting my flu and COVID vaccines yesterday. Hopefully the side effects are short lived! Anvil afficionado: @dclawycat.bsky.social Photo: @edgewise.bsky.social (I think?) Clawy & Nullstrukt by the awesome @morefurlessinc.bsky.social

LOL and one more to send the Devils off. Love to see it! :D #LetsGoCanes #RaiseUp

Let's Go Canes!!!! #RaiseUp

ANOTHER POST, aaaarrgggh. I thought that was 4-2 for sure, ha. What a first game as a Cane for K'Andre Miller, though! #RaiseUp
