We’ve been a little quiet but we’re thrilled to announce that registration for Furry Studies 2025 in Pacific Lutheran University is NOW OPEN! 👉🏻 furrystudies.org
Happy to share that I will be moderating a panel at this years @furrystudies.org conference in Tacoma, WA on Halloween! I stepped on to help organize the conference after speaking at it last year and it’s been really near and dear to me. Tickets for in person and virtual attendance are available!

![A scanned image of a sketchpage. The early life cycle of a wolf is depicted in drawings and text: "Take a wolf." [a quadrupedal wolf.] "Make him bipedal." [He is standing on two plantigrade legs.] "Dress him in clothes from the department store." [He wears pants and a rugby shirt, one leg propped up on a small box.] "Give him a 20 year long interdisciplinary education." [He is seen as a high school math student, looking at a wall clock while using a graphing calculator. As a college student, timing the movement of a film development can. As a graduate student, looking at mortarboards being tossed in the air.] "He is now ready to go outside!" [He is once again on all fours, albeit still in bidepal form, wearing kneepads and a harness which reads "MASTER'S DEGREE- OK TO PET."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:syrbaogvw7o42kuv3doca37r/bafkreibvzri7nhkyyajfsij2kujywhecmco6fmgtz56x7lsppldwtzcxti@jpeg)
