Are you gonna give me a treat, or do I need to show you a trick?

It's still #fursuitfriday somewhere.

This week has felt particularly "You're absolutely right!" heavy

Let's take a trip down memory lane! What was the first fursuit photo you've ever taken?

Never played disc golf before. This was my introduction.

The buggo needs wing repairs and it's time to dust off some very old projects...

Checked out a new (to me) section of the bike trail today and I have no idea what kind of Blair Witch shit I stumbled into.

New material, new print for the Nargacuga head base. The lightweight TPU has good give and prints really well. Decided to try a moving jaw so there's a PETG jaw frame embedded in a channel inside.

First I ran out of Barge thinner. Now my respirator harness broke. This project really wants to take its time coming together.

I make it to the pool once a year -- it can be pretty overwhelming at first.

Waiting for the BONK. A special version of this was the closing ceremonies of Furality 2000, at the end looking around at the crowd around me, thinking this was awfully quiet for the finale, then noticing various friends frozen in mid-sprint. No bonk, time just frozen forever.
Those dreaded times when you are chilling in #vrchat and time seemingly stands still for no apparent reason.

Please please please say more than "hi" when you send a message. Tell me where I'd know you from, or attach your question if you're looking for help with something. Otherwise I assume you're going to ask me to download a game or do something else to instantly fail my vibe check.
Jumping on this to let people know you really wanna do this NOW more than ever because "hello" and "hi" are how most bots and scammers start the conversation. Make yourself clear at the start and you will pass the robot-test

I cherish every moment I get to describe what an octopus furnace is to someone in VRChat.

Prototype TPU base. The print quality wasn't great so I need to do some more testing and maybe some fit adjustment. Vision placement is great though.

Most of you know what this is, but the base is derived from the "Toastacuga" VRChat model by @neotoasteo.bsky.social with some minor edits

I offer this without context, other than my friends are weird and wonderful.

First time playing with fur. I anticipate making a good few cuga ears to both figure out the best color match and also practice shaving, sewing, seam allowance, and so on.

Managed to get the 1.21.6 port done within a couple days which is pretty good! Storage Drawers is updated on all the loaders (NeoForge/Forge/Fabric). But we also hit a fun milestone today.

With Furality past I finally had time to finish upgrading Storage Drawers to Minecraft 1.21.5. And then the same day I get the last two launcher builds out, 1.21.6 is released...
