It got to an estimated -74F last night, turning a couple of days at my friend's into 5+ as every fluid, including fuel, solidified. My tires are frozen/locked. Some relay is frozen stuck, making my car think it is turned on and draining the battery. Fun times in interior Alaska. :p

Can we be done with blue LEDs on everything yet? They're literally the worst LED color for visual acuity and restful sleep. Bring back red and amber LEDs please. Our eyes can actually resolve detail in red light and it doesn't mess with our circadian rhythms!

Just sayin'

I have so many adventures I wanna do, and I I have means, the time, and the health to do many of them. What I don’t have is someone to do them with! Adventuring solo can be fun, but it’s so much better to share the experiences with someone.

Me, looking for campgrounds that have "raccoon problems" so I can plan trips to them. Several in California!

Going into 2026 like. 📹 @raccoonx.bsky.social

Had a dream that I was traveling in Europe and there was all kinds of weird m, confusing, and unfamiliar stuff going on as I walked through a shopping district and was checking out various shops.

Just now realizing that three of the 4 pictures I shared in this post were taken in deserts, three DIFFERENT deserts even. Black Rock Desert, NV Park Valley, UT Joshua Tree NP, CA

Oops.

This would fix me.

Some photos from last night's Dream Pool event @impactraves.org 🧵 part 1 ft. @tabernak.bsky.social @twigmouse.bsky.social

Last night, for the first time, I performed on stage something I wrote as part of @impactraves.org Dreampool. I told the story of my unanticipated transformation from mouse to raccoon, and some of the challenges I’ve faced with that change as a therian. Video coming soon. 📷 @horserenoir.xyz

I honestly wonder how the loss of the night sky has impacted attitudes about preservation in general. People who live in cities might not see a starry sky for YEARS at a time. Looking at the stars is grounding. It’s humbling. It’s inspiring. Millions of people basically never experience it anymore

Just some animals hanging out in the forest. With @twigmouse.bsky.social

Had a dream there was a marten outside a sliding glass door and I pressed my nose to the glass from inside and it was super curious about me and kept following me as I moved my nose from place to place in the window. I love when I have animal dreams. They’re always so interactive in them 💚

Merry Christmas! www.ffungi.org/blog/the-inf...

I didn’t send physical cards this year, so enjoy this recycling of my card from last year 🦝

Came across the absolute best book in my eBay recommendations yesterday. A perfect last minute gift for that special raccoon in your life 📖🦝

Another from the @nwtrek.bsky.social visit this weekend. These two raccoons, Hickory and Bluebell, are siblings and were being insanely photogenic all day! #raccoon

Man, why is it that any time I get time off without plans it just completely tanks my mood? I suppose it being holidays doesn’t help either, but damn. I’m two days in to my work’s extended two week holiday break and I’m already an anxious wreck with depression settling in rapidly.

I’m really looking forward to sharing the story I’ve written for this show. It’s a very personal story about my transformation from mouse to raccoon and, as therian, some of the challenges of such a transformation. If you’re going to be in Seattle on the 27th, it would be great to see you there.

I want to host a fursuit cuddle party with every raccoon.

Today is my 1yr anniversary at my current job. It’s SO MUCH BETTER than Tesla was, in terms of pay and mission. I do miss Tesla’s resources though. We got to work on some crazy projects with some really cool perks (two week business trip to New Zealand for 9 days of vehicle testing).

Three more weeks. 🔐

Whoa, you okay buddy? That TF potion hit you pretty hard. You came out great though! Take some time to catch your breath. Then we can start getting you used to your new shape and go find some snacks by the river. With @raccoonx.bsky.social

I finally found a use for AI.

Oh, hi.

You cross paths with this critter on a hike. WYD? 📷 @raccoonx.bsky.social

Raccoons are often found in or near bodies of water. From @cogweekend.com

a little raccoon study before bed. I wish to dream of raccoon

How many calories is the inside of my lip? I should probably account for that in my budget today. Ouch

Whelp, I’m officially the heaviest I’ve ever been (by two whole pounds). *skips breakfast*

I have so much media and I only display not even 5% of it. Part of that is to pace myself for updates when I can't capture media--weather, projects, work--but I don't do this for views so social media has been a terrible motivator. 😆 I also fear celebrity to a degree.

Gross

Someone sent me a Christmas card with an AI depiction of an apocalyptic nuclear winter vista of San Francisco, San Francisco. Thanks for that.

Urge to just lay in bed all day and listen to the rain is very strong

What’s the most trivial thing that you just inherently assumed would be easy but ended up being surprisingly difficult? For me, it’s probably putting an even layer of pepperoni on a pizza.

So many perfect raccoons! 💚💚

These Zootopia-verse movies are fire

@straander.bsky.social when he’s dieting.

Zootopia 3: Nick and Judy are recruited by the ZBI. Their first case is a conspiracy theorist bat insisting that inconsistencies in Zootopia culture indicate they are living in a simulation. The duo’s sleuthing confirms their existence is an elaborate enrichment activity devised by human zookeepers.

Taurs are just bugs with endoskeletons.

One thing that drives me nuts is when I ask someone a question and they send me an AI generated response. It’s the modern version of “let me google that for you”. If I’m asking, it’s because I want that person’s response! I can look up generic answers myself!
