📌 A bit about me:
A raccoon (sometimes deermouse) that lives in the PNW forest.
Your garbage and attic are safe from me, I want nothing to do with either.
I forage and grow mushrooms, hike, travel, and try to make the most of life!
Was therian before I was furry, and have been at it since 1998.

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.

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.

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.

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

I think people today don't understand just how dramatically the night sky has changed - it looked like it does in super remote areas *everywhere* before the invention of electric lighting, and light pollution that obscures the sky has gotten dramatically worse in the last 25 years.
If you ever have the experience of seeing a night sky out in the deep countryside you can understand this; it really is a fundamentally different experience, and I can't imagine it not being formative to people.

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 💚

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

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.

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).
