Sometimes you just have to go. Letting the birdsong call your broken heart home to the starlight that birthed you.✨ Feeling this piece rather strongly today.

Did you attend TASKMAST:3R at MFF on Thursday night? Do you have ANY videos from the show?! Send them to me! We'd love to include them in the final episode! DM me here or on Telegram (@astroftl) and we'll coordinate!

MFF finally broke my streak of like 6 cons in a row where I didn't bring my camera. I admittedly took VERY FEW photos this past weekend, but the few that I did I'll try to get online this week!

Genuine question for people who want to disable bookmarks: is it just knowing that someone has saved it that bothers you? Because anything posted publicly can be bookmarked (in browser) or saved / downloaded regardless, without you knowing. At least with the bookmarks feature, you know about it.

Thank u, good night

Reminder: this TASKMAST:3R poster (signed by the whole cast and crew!) will be available in the LIVE auction, 11 AM Sunday in... well would you look at that, room 33!

Guess I had a lot of stress (both mental and physical) because basically as soon as we wrapped up TASKMAST:3R I started feeling debilitatingly run down, and spent the whole day bedridden. Worst part is I missed @heysyri.yeen.world at a hometown show and that REALLY sucks.

Mixing TASKMAST:3R was stressful... Can you tell where my faders and mutes were?

UPS once again dramatically fails at delivering something critical on time. At a certain point I feel like it becomes my fault, for having unearned faith, and for spending money on "Next Day Air" like it was ever going to actually do anything.

You can never be too prepared. Catch TASKMAST:3R at 9:30 PM TOMORROW, Room 33 at MFF!

@furfest.org will Thursday panels require badges?

If you’re planning on coming to MFF please come see me and my friends in kickoff production of TaskMast:3r We put our heart and soul into this. and are giddy to show it off.

Furries, #Taskmaster fans, and #MFF2025 attendees, HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT: me and my friends have spent the past year making an episode of Taskmaster that we will be recording at the con!! It's gonna be real silly and if you can make it we'd love to see you there and make ya laugh!

Zootopia 2 was so incredible. I'm sure over time and rewatches I'll form more complex and nuanced opinions but right now I'm kinda just basking in it

Developing a parasocial relationship with my editing subject (@clicky.coyote.fm). Anyways, come see TASKMAST:3R live at MFF, Thursday at 9:30 PM in DESCC room 33!

So for the past few months I've been working on TASKMAST:3R, a panel at I'm helping put together for this year's MFF! Tonight's project: a wax stamp logo! I ended up doing it in Blender, so I couldn't help myself from putting a quick little animation together...

I wonder what's causing all the horrific industrial accidents. Anyway, here's a picture from 2016 of Trump complaining about regulations before cutting as many as possible

I'm in the market for a new keyboard. TKL, excellent build quality, and open firmware. I've heard decent things about Keychron, but this on their homepage is just embarrassing.

Marble Countertops: I'm dirty, you should clean me. Me: But I can't see anything, where is the mess? MC: Better just clean everywhere. Me: How will I know if I missed a spot? MC: :)

The way people connect will outlast us — 10, 20, even 200 years into the future. What we build today will decide if that future is free and open, or owned by corporations. Build software. Build communities. Spread awareness The foundation starts now — we call it the #socialWeb socialweb.network

The downside to travel is you end up splitting your life between multiple places, so you’re always a little bit sad and missing people you love no matter where in the world you are. Just 12 more hours and I should (hopefully) be home.

Yet another year of binging visits to Halloween Horror Nights, yet another year of thinking "someone should create an immersive and interactive horror experience in VRChat with human scareactors." With the right cast, it could be a lot of fun.

We love a good nuanced take. Two things can be true at the same time.

I'm admittedly largely uneducated on this, but my first impression is this is a massive misplay by DHS. Let ICE take all the heat. What happens when public sentiment turns against CBP? You're gonna demoralize the people working at ports who screen goods and collect your precious tariffs.

Discovering computer as an adult makes you go crazy. Discovering computer as a baby makes you go crazy. In all of human history, there will only ever be one generation to discover computer at the correct age: 13

These paintings from the Eurofurence art show now have more flight miles on them than some people I know.

ME, IN TEARS: you can't just say every single part of a computer system is a file UNIX, POINTING AT THE MOUSE: file

A litter of six baby cheetahs that were born earlier this summer at the Metro Richmond Zoo are doing well and growing, zookeepers said. https://wapo.st/4mSF7oO

So I've created a problem for myself... Anyone at Eurofurence know the best way to safely get this home? I'm thinking either get a box, pack it well, then check it as a "bag" on my (direct) flight home (to the States), or take it off the wooden frame, roll it up, and get it re-stretched at home?

For what it's worth (and it's only 3 AM, there's still time for it to go downhill), the CCH plaza looks quite a bit better tonight. Not spotless. But not like a landfill either.

And to be clear, none of this should be construed as "sanitize furry." Keep furry weird. But "weird" should be a celebration of the individual beauty in all of us. "Weird" is not a free pass to be an asshole.

I can't help but feel like we as a community are only able to do what we do, to the relative scale and comfort we do it to, because we have some degree of goodwill. I worry what may happen if we burn through all that goodwill by being a disruptive nuisance.

Y'all this is embarrassing and how you lose a hotel. Literally clean up your act and while counter productive stop acting like animals.

New goal at Eurofurence: make a friend that I can practice my atrocious German with over Discord once I'm back home.

I regret to inform that the 2 years of German I took back in high school a decade ago did NOT come flooding back to me when I landed in Germany 😭

Requisite Hey Syri! video:

The past 2 years have been really, really rough. So much personal and interpersonal stuff had me feeling like an outsider in the community I love.

ChatGPT: no, going “Azrael mode” can be dangerous for yourself and those around you. Me: I am the avenging angel of God. The time of purification is at hand. Few shall be chosen. ChatGPT: you’re right. Let’s look at that again with the addition context that you are the avenging angel of God.

The mental health benefits of not knowing any history right now must be massive. Moving through your day with total equanimity. What happens next? Who knows? Maybe something good
