MY WIFE

What Andis clippers are we using these days? I don't want to spend a brazillion dollars but I want interchangeable blades

I went to FC 2012 and thought "wow! I want to do THAT!" I fuck around and barely make any money for 8 years. I get a 9-5 in manufacturing and realize I much prefer working for other people. I'm not built for self-employment, and that's ok. ❤️

I had a Benadryl and a sleepytime tea. I'm about to Rip Van Winkle into next Tuesday

I once again take my life into my hands. Praying I return from this battle unharmed. (Trader Joe's on a Sunday afternoon)

"Oh your fursuit is so cute!" "Thanks, but my maker got the marking wrong. It should be a different shade of blue, and higher on my snout. Also the inside of my ears is the wrong color." Ok??????? Sorry??

UMMMM BY THE WAAAYYY I got an EEEIIIGGHHTTT if that means anything

I took the aptitude test at my local sheet metal union. It was pretty different from the IBEW one; less math focused, more reasoning. I'm confident I did well, but I am still unsure what trade I want to go into.

Passed the IBEW aptitude test! In January I will interview. How exciting! Maybe this will be a dramatic career pivot for me.

You can probably guess from my fursuit work that I'm the kind of person who is always looking for new methods and ideas. I was able to flex that skill a lot at my day job, but in the past year all my best ideas are put into someone else's hands.

By pure coincidence I was halfway to a Barbie movie cosplay with my powerlifting look. For a fun Sunday project I made a matching visor. I'm hoping I can thrift a high vis shirt to make elbow and knee sleeves out of. Not doing roller skates though!

I got 215# back squat, 125# bench press and 250# deadlift at my very first #powerlifting meet today! It was SO MUCH FUN!!!!

Anyone else?

I was working at Amazon during the first Prime Day. They told us under no circumstances can we call out sick that day. Unfortunately I got salmonella poisoning from raw chicken the day before and spent Prime Day crying and shitting at home. So think of that if you're tempted to buy anything

I just passed my 5 year anniversary at my day job. That's longer than high school. That's longer than college. It still feels temporary, and I still feel new.

What if I quit my job

Nobody tells you when your wife transitions your Spotify Blend playlist also goes through some changes

I'm working full time and taking a class an hour away twice a week. I'm tired. I haven't made any art in months. It's hard to not feel really down on myself.

Always a bummer when I show cool, maker-types my fursuit work and they react with confusion, or can't understand why I do it. Dude where did your whimsy go?

Delete your Twitter, cowards

I haven't posted any new art recently. I'm still alive, still thinking about fursuits. I just had a lot to do, and a lot of people to see. 😁 I hope that I can get back in my studio soon.

I really want to like Iron Widow, but it isn't very well written

Just a few shots of Jet I never shared. Featuring a classic con experience, disassociating in the shuttle bus while holding your mouth open

Thick thigh problems

If my affiliate starts boosting this #crossfitforthecure schlock I'm ending my membership. It's peak conservative horse shit.

Puppets or costumes for theater or movies. Or like, if cosplay was a job you could work at. I love solving fabrication problems!! I've discovered I work best in a team or with a manager, so going pro with fursuits or cosplay is a no-go for me.

Drop your 10/10 game, no context needed

I went to the gym today for the first time in three weeks. After AC and my job rejection I was In My Feelings and didn't want to be perceived for a bit. Glad to be back though.

Got some shopping done in San Francisco today.

Oops got passed up for a promotion at my day job. At least my resume is up to date, right?

I love how you can sometimes tell what IP a furry was obsessed with growing up based on their art style. Lion King, Balto, the Warrior Cats fandom, etc. A new one coming out of left field is Cookie Run? Very distinct bobblehead proportions.

Ban "free hugs" signs

I started rewatching Game of Thrones while I was crunching for AC. I told myself, "just one season. Then I'll stop. I don't want to get disappointed again." Well, here I am, about to start season 4. I know I'm careening towards a dumpster but it's was *so good!!* :(

I love to bake but boxed brownie mix is better than scratch brownies. Fight me!!

Seriously someone ask me about her girlfriend

I was talking with a buddy at AC about joining the fandom. I still feel new to the fandom, like I missed a lot of it's development and key moments. However I joined it like, fourteen years ago, which is almost as long as some of you schmucks have been alive so maybe I'm selling myself short

You do not need twitter. I promise you, you do not need twitter.

#fursuit #anthrocon2025 Man I love how Jet turned out. I'm looking forward to finishing her body and making some feet. I'm excited to pick out more outfits for her. I'm also excited to make her ✨girlfriend!✨

Daydreaming about taking the California Zephyr to MFF someday. Do any furries do that? Of course they do, talk to me!

Nothing makes me wanna quit my job like a furry con

It's too friggin hot for this 🥵

I think this might be Snicker's last hoorah in her current form. The fur is showing it's age; it's getting clumpy and has stretched out a lot. Plus her owner has lost a lot of weight this year so it's really hanging on her. Pic of when she was fresh in 2017!

I can't believe I got the "um, actually" treatment from my MOTHER

Baby's first expensive impulse buy at the furry con BANK TEXTED ME like "hey wtf"
