Obligatory Pinned Post.

I'm Gracie Jane. I'm also Quuxum Mephitida. Gamer, Linux admin, furry con staffer, Yinzer.

I'm more often found on my Mastodon profiles:
tech.lgbt/@Drquuxum [Not necessarily furry]
chitter.xyz/@skunxum [Much more furry]

I quit 𝕏 in October 2022 and won't go back.

I haven't had a feeling like that since the CUETO CUETO CUETO game of 2013. Enjoy the ALCS!

James Franklin looks like he needs an anger translator. Luckily there's a Penn State alumnus who has experience in that.

I've always considered it to be part of the family. Pap Pap worked there when the Atom Smasher was built until he moved up to the new site in Churchill in 1958. I abhor the state that it's in now.

Please be aware that there is a scrapple sculpting contest at the Reading Terminal Market tomorrow at noon. (If you don’t know what this means you probably don’t want to.)

Another WPAFW for the books. What an absolutely amazing event. We completely smashed our charity goals and raised $23,000! So grateful to all the generous fuzzies who make this possible. ;w;

I'm in an Eat'n'Park with 35 furcon staffers.

They just sat Bob Pompeani next to us.

Keep in mind when you apply--it's going to be several months before the surgery at minimum. There's a lot of waiting and a bunch of stuff you'll be given to learn about the process as you go through it. It also gives you access to the team to ask questions specifically about you too!

Thanks!

Thank you again for everyone trying to donate a kidney for me.
I don't have any new updates or anything--they're still working through the list and yeah we are really beginning to run out of time. If you're on the fence but would like to try, get started at iggyland.org
Thank you everyone!

The TL;DR on how you can help (if you scroll down, the full story is below): In short I have a disease that requires a living kidney donor. There are no other viable options for me. I have only a few ...

That's the traditional indoor pool on the South Side by the 10th Street Bridge -- we used to have queer pool parties there during the winters prior to COVID

Yes, yes I would. Give that young man a chicken parm.

So proud of Canada 🇨🇦 who did so well in this tournament, knocking off both Australia and New Zealand, but England just too strong on the home ground at Twickenham.

Congratulations to England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 -- Women's Rugby World Cup Champions!

Can I borrow your uncle? My 86 yo uncle hasn't spoken to me since I transitioned in 2016 and only ever gave me a stink-eye when I last saw him in 2020.
