Furry has always been queer. Furry has always been punk. Furry has always been counter-culture. And these values are specifically why the fandom is so amazingly positive and powerful as an entity.

Wonder how many people's eggs cracked to the DDR machine telling them "you are not an ordinary fellow!"

Since I started my job I:
- Pierced my ears
- Let my hair grow from an inch long to shoulder length
- Shaved my mustache off
- Shaved a full beard down to thin stripes and a heart
- 9 months HRT

At this point I really wonder if anyone at work is gonna notice. 😹

Alcohol and You (Zine C-02, Convention Series)

Parties and drinking sometimes go hand in hand. How can you stay safe so everyone has a good time?

linktr.ee/realtalkfurall

Alcohol and You. Parties and drinking sometimes go hand in hand. How can you stay safe so everyone has a good time?

Drinking 101. ‘One drink’ is 5oz wine, 12oz beer or 1.5oz of hard alcohol. Risk Reducers: Eating Food, Drinking Water, Sipping and Savoring your drink. Risk Increasers: Drinking rapidly, Empty stomach, Mixing alcohol with other substances. *Try to drink water between each alcoholic drink you consume.

Drunkenness. Most people reach intoxication after consuming 2 drinks in an hour. Effects start within 10 minutes, but peak about 1 hour after you drink on an empty stomach. *Wait for it before drinking more. Effects of Intoxication: Delayed Reactions, Lowered Inhibitions, Reduced Coordination, Impaired Judgement.

Take Care. A person’s reaction time and coordination deteriorate as their blood alcohol level rises. Even if a person is good at masking obvious symptoms of intoxication, their physical capabilities are compromised. In fact, people with a high tolerance are arguably more risky because it’s difficult for others to tell when they’re impaired.

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

What a perfect bunny form! I love to see it. 😻

I'm looking forward to wearing my suit again for the first time in forever, now that I have some outfits that match the vibe I want. =^^=

Sneak peek of the first batch of prints we'll be handing out at the booth! =^-^= #ACFI2025 @furryinvasion.bsky.social

A kitchen island covered in prints on trans and gay flags with hate will not save us and cat and mouse designs on them.

Ngl I am seriously considering it. 😳 Been planning on starting up a new village for the house.

Being weird about animal crossing on the gamecube was a whole thing. Bob was such good queer cat rep. 🐱

I need to get SOMEONE to snap some pics of me at ACFI, I'd post way more of my makeup and my outfits if they weren't all bathroom selfies. 🙄

Cis men get the short end of the stick, they have the None Pizza with Left Beef of gender. 😞

Gotta remind myself that no matter how cool someone is, if they can't make time for me or put in the effort to talk then I'm wasting my precious energy.

Aw, that's great! It's so important to keep in mind and hold onto that feeling. ^^ Sometimes it can be rough, but for all the ways you know you help there are even more you may never know! 💗

Love that! =^^= I've taken on the role of Den Mom for the Austin furry scene myself. I think we need more of that in our communities.
