She brings the fire
Custom zippo lighter featuring kananesgi ama, the water spider, who brought fire to the people in the #cherokee first fire story
Really happy with how this came out, it was so fun to design!

A photo of a brushed chrome zippo lighter with a printed black cherokee water spider design. The spider is facing downward with the fire, represented by a circle with a cross, on her back.

The same water spider lighter, open and lit.

I know there's the Virginia Cat Festival in Williamsburg but I didn't know about this!

I remember seeing somewhere that reselling or donating can be good, but at the same time it's just going to end up in a landfill eventually. I'm just prolonging it, and turning my own space into a landfill instead if I'm not using the items. That kinda stuck with me... Still easier said than done!

All my fellow ADHDers are familiar with the DOOM box/pile, yeah?

I have been working really hard the past couple days at chipping down a huge box. Throwing things away/donating always feels hard, especially with shame associated that I spent $$ to buy some of this stuff. But it has to go.

Am I unoriginal to think you look very cozy in a giant Kong?

I've been spending a lot of time outside lately... It feels... Good. Like home. A place where I'm not only welcomed, but where I belong.

You?

A photo of a black cat fursuiter wearing a full suit. They are standing outdoors in-between a dark, tall wall and a well-lit field of greenery. Blue mountain ridges can be seen fading in the distance.

Just in case anyone tries to reach me, I'm going to be away from this account for a while.

Limited interactions on this just in case. But I'm a black trans person living in America, I will not be scared to share what I feel and I shouldn't have to justify my opinions if you have common sense. If you don't like them I'd be happy to see you go!

Bailey @plantpurrson.bsky.social · Sep 12

Current political tensions on here are high, but let this #fursuitfriday serve as a reminder that All Cats Are Beautiful. 🐈‍⬛ And if you're a cop, don't ask me for a photo.

Still don't understand why so many of them were mulling around the Fursonacon hotel on Saturday evening...
