decided to replay Metroid today, but this time, i played on a CRT. i'm *blown away* by how much better this game looks on CRT, especially with Kraid. his claws look curved, his body is so smooth, the highlights blend so naturally, and his face is like a mini kaiju. i wish my phone captured it better

There have been signs

Ai being pushed on us so ferociously is a reminder that companies will always sell us shit they know is bad for us with a smile. Here are some vintage ads for plastic, Cigarettes (endorsed by a Dr), and Candy as a source of healthy energy. Oh! Can't forget the magic of asbestos!

i made a beat saber cube plush as a surprise christmas gift for a friend! it came out a lot plumper than i anticipated, though… doesn’t look like a cube at all. i hope it’s still recognizable at a glance. i’m probably just overthinking it.

woooof, i’ve been sleeping heavily since MFF. real tired hours. it’s honestly tough getting back into the swing of day-to-day life, that convention was truly something special. i think this is the most emotional a furcon has made me ever since my very first.

I've been playing with getting more ActiveWorlds stuff into VRChat >:3

protip: girls love it when you do this

Tenor Terrace has been added to #ToonTown #VRChat. The HQ interior also got re-atlased for optimization. Plus, its laboratory has been made accessible, so you can waltz right through the glass wall and get a close look at this tantalizingly off-limits area. As a treat. Happy Halloween.

don't feed the trolls (official US government information outlets)

honestly very odd to see official US government accounts posting ragebait on social medias

turns out there was a bug with the new billboard shader, but ONLY for android users, ONLY on the TTC streetlamps/trees, and ONLY when the holiday is Halloween. this issue does not affect anything else using the new billboard shader. i fixed it, but here's a video of the perplexing yet hilarious bug

I've made kobold ice cubes

𝙏𝙃𝙄𝙎 𝙅𝙐𝙎𝙏 𝙄𝙉!! Local Marshmallow Visits ToonTown~ (Gosh I love this world. ToonTown Online was a HUGE part of my childhood. Shout out to the makers!! It’s so nostalgic and whimsical! Wild to be able to walk around and see everything in VR! 💚)

Baritone Boulevard was added to #Toontown #VRChat! Additionally, Toontown Central's billboarded objects now use the new billboard shaders. I've also redone a few of the atlases (or as Toons know them, "palettes") for TTC's textures. These invisible changes should hopefully optimize the world further

crikey the #kobold

This art was on the side of one of the most successful arcade machines ever, and everyone was still like, yeah, no, he shouldn’t look like that

In Super Mario Odyssey, kicking things is Mario's highest priority, overriding all other actions. If a kickable object, such as a football, is thrown at Mario while he is asleep, he will momentarily wake up just to kick it before instantly going back to sleep.

The unsavvy talk about furries like they're some hypersexual excretion of modernity, but drawing animal-people is one of the top 10 neolithic human activities. It's up there with collecting berries and producing clay figures of fat women.

#Toontown #VRChat has been updated to add Alto Avenue! If you despise the color green, this is a lovely street to stroll through. If you love the color green, I'd direct you to Acorn Acres, which has been updated to use the new billboard shaders. (And it's a very nice spot to chill for Labor Day!)

This is what happens when you make a mistake

healthcare fucking sucks. did your provider make you pay for faulty equipment? that’s too bad. pay the full damn price again so we can send you the equipment again. fingers crossed it won’t be faulty this time!

#Toontown #VRChat has been updated! Minnie's Melodyland has been added. Plus, there's now a touchscreen button for the Shtickerbook, so mobile users won't be left behind. Next step is to add Alto Avenue and gradually convert all prior billboarded objects from using scripts to shaders.

It’s #FursuitsFriday and #DigimonDay all in one? Better cuddle up with your favorite Digimon Plush! 💜💜💜 🧸: @batsywatsysuits.bsky.social

once VRChat allows us to create and share inventory items, i’m totally gonna make all of toontown’s gags into items

Can I just say how fucking ridiculous it is that queer and nsfw art is more heavily regulated than the fucking plagiarism machine destroying our planet that is genAI

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, the Mushroom Kingdom undergoes hyperinflation, whereby their coins lose value at a rate of 10 trillion percent during the game. Surprisingly, this is still about 40,000 times less than the most extreme hyperinflation in real-life history.

catching up with bsky after not checking it all con long is quite the task. XwX it was lovely seeing so much anthrocon posting, but now the PCD is kicking in hard ;w;

i’ve survived anthrocon’s registration! enduring reg always seems to absolutely drain my energy. it’s the biggest hurdle for me to overcome at any convention XwX

The most fuzzy Woofles now. Thanks to the amazing @deerlybeloved.bsky.social doing the body suit and @spacemutt.bsky.social for everything else. #furry #fursuiter

quick doodle of a chonky kobold creature #furry #art

i’m currently making a bodysuit for a friend, and i’ve come to appreciate how simple his patterns are. it makes it easier to get the suit done quick it also made me realize that i’ve screwed myself over with my own fursona’s design. my many tiny spots are nice to look at, but god. imagine the labor

Me and @gubeyvs.bsky.social found a recreation of Namco Museum Vol. 4 in VRChat (there's a few others we'll have to check next time too) These were insanely well made: fully interactive with the proper sounds, animations, all of that. Everything except the games, obviously. But still!

wELP, since my sickness is finally behind me, i feel compelled to take on an irresponsible amount of projects. business as usual. being down and out for a whole week made me realize how much i revolve my existence around being “productive” though. maybe there’s a lesson to be learned from this…

I DIDN’T KNOW HE WAS GONNA STEAL MY POSE

FWA was an incredible experience that reinvigorated me, but all that newfound energy and motivation has been negated by con crud keeping me bedridden for the past few days. i’m… really bitter about it. -w-

I had the joy of visiting @deerlybeloved.bsky.social's wonderful Namco Museum recreations in VRChat! It's clear so much care & effort went into bringing these iconic locations to life in VR! Still can't believe I got to see PiCPAC in (sorta) real life.🥹 Stream link: www.youtube.com/live/P8OlkCqEf1U

Hearing my fren play has been my highlight of #FWA2025

i’m back home and i have so much i want to say, but all my energy is sapped because con crud kicked in on the trip back ;w; my first FWA was certainly one of the greatest experiences of all time though, and i’m 100% convinced i gotta try AC next.

the reception the YCH fursuit has been receiving at FWA continues to blow me away. i keep thinking about this image because it’s literally me

applying for jobs again

after just one day, reception to the YCH suit has already been outstanding. i’m so happy i could bring so many people joy. i’m also grateful that there’s a separation between the suit and the suiter. i can still live my quiet life as deerly beloved, without the pressure of fame bearing upon me >w<

first big con tomorrow. one of the biggest few, at that. i’m feeling quite nervous.
