Booking a room for the Big Stats Con (TM) and I'm like hey I know that hotel isn't it usually full of animal people

TIL Inter Toronto of the Canadian Premier League recently got a new mascot and oh my goodness he is perfect

Went to YTZ as part of Doors Open Toronto and while I was devastated to find literally no Porter merch I did learn YTZ has an official mascot called Billy the Flying Fox with a suspiciously good mascot costume

I can't remember the last time there were so many songs I would be both happy to win *and* I think might win but I am still preparing for disappointment #eurovision

Dear Bluesky I am looking for furry artists I may have missed with a toony/semi-toony style so if any of y'all have recommendations for furry artists I may have missed with a toony/semi-toony style please share I would be very raccoon grateful thank you

I have 21 minutes left to finish the Canadian census and I am still procrastinating by making up bad jokes to annoy my friends

Filling out my census and just discovered if I had quadruple citizenship (I could also be Australian if I *really* wanted) the form doesn't account for it and if breaking the Canadian census form isn't a good reason to spend several hundred dollars on another passport I don't know what is

FWA has allowed me to combine sports and being weird animals and these are two of my absolute favoritest things #FWA2026 (Feat. @ramseyfox.bsky.social)

"So how are the elevators at FWA?" "Eh, they've been kinda up and down"

Just opened my FWA trading cards and ngl if this is a PSA 10 I think it might pay for the whole trip

Wait this isn't a Tim Hortons

I had two leftover crumpets and one leftover burger and I'm pretty sure if I made one of these in the UK I'd be charged with treason

Was going through some childhood boxes at my parents' house and am delighted to have uncovered some Ancient Furry Media

Fox Stevenson in real life does not look as much like a fox as I'd hoped and this will be reflected in my google review

Any mutuals interested in this shoot me a DM/TG? Trying to put a group together ⚽

I asked the hotel to switch rooms to be further from daytime construction noise because I'm still sleeping off the jet lag and they kindly accommodated but then woke me up with a phone call at 10am to check the new room was okay and that I wasn't still being disturbed by the construction noise 🙃

I'm here and I'm ready for sandwiches and sleep

Off on a work trip so I keep suddenly panicking I've forgotten something because I only have one bag when I'm so used to travelling with multiple giant animal costumes

*Hacker voice*

I'm a reviewer for a round of federally funded medical research project proposals and I'm skimming through the list of grants I may have to review and my main takeaway is that a lot of people want to use taxpayer money to buy ketamine

Had to cancel FE last minute which slightly derails my plan for Anthrocon this year to be my 50th con ('cos now it'd be my 49th) so now I'm deciding if I want to squeeze in an extra con for arbitrary number fun but the set of cons that are both before AC and fit into my schedule is possibly ∅

TIL and this is an outrage (🎨: @snifftime.bsky.social)

Hacker voice: I'm in

Today I experienced 3 levels of Canada: Level 1: "It was 16C three days ago but now I have to shovel snow?" Level 2: "wtf I think someone stole my good snow shovel?" Level 3: "...when did I become someone who owns multiple snow shovels?"

A weird thing about being disabled is how often you miss a meeting 'cos your eyes suck but you just make a vague excuse that probably sounds like a lie 'cos you don't want to explain how some unexpected snow turned the whole world into a white blur and you literally couldn't find the train station

One day these bots/scammers will learn that instead of telling me that they love the vibe of my sona they can just send me photos of raccoons and I will instantly fall for it

Apparently my cat has opinions about transit

Finally got my Irish passport, and just in time for St Patrick's Day 🇮🇪

Seeing a sniffer dog at YYZ baggage claim and being torn between finding the dog cute but also the fear of him realizing I'm smuggling crumpets

I went to a Beatles museum and they had a pair of John Lennon's glasses and I was like oh that's kinda cool and then it turned out they had a pair of John Lennon's glasses in like every other room and you're just like man I hope this guy had a good vision care plan

I've been in Europe since Wednesday and currently feel *more* jet lagged than I did the day I arrived in case you're wondering how my NFC went

URGH

concerned hockey noises

Furry Taskmaster was a BLAST. Every entry was a stitch. Extremely glad to have gotten to meet and compete with four other fantastic folks. Also: I came in second!! That’s one silver medal for the US, at least 🥈

Despite Air Canada's best efforts (and they really did pull out all the stops this time), I have arrived

Within literally five minutes of stepping off the plane in Denmark someone saw our Canada luggage tags, asked if we were Canadian, then made fun of us because of the curling :|
