First ever #FursuitFriday so why not post the first image someone too outside my inner circle!
Had an absolute blast and MCFC and can't wait for the updates to my partial to be able to wear him more!

Con recap:
As cities go Detroit is still pretty rough. Compared to my 20 years in Baltimore, & recent vacations exploring Madison, Milwaukee, Chicago & Cleveland, I felt the need to be the most vigilant in Detroit. The drug dealers were much more aggressive, not taking 'I'm good" as an answer.

leaving for mcfc, and will be away from Bluesky, as I have purposefully not put any social media apps on my phone, to help prop up my remaining sanity

reworded this:
Skunks, what do you like best?
Being stinky, or being teased, about being stinky, even if you are not stinky?
If I had to choose, it's definitely the teasing part, especially given I smell so nice, like fresh flower in the spring

I had a therapist whom I'd talk to about my furry life and after a few years he joked, "It's the foxes of the world, that keep me in business", and he's not wrong
