Be genuine. Annoy people. Be unapologetic. Openly Love things that people won't understand. Have Opinions. Share passions. Infect others with excitement. Defy a world made for the rich with a smile made for free.

I'm guessing it's going to be crazy through November; they announced layoffs coming then because of the federal grant situation. In the meantime I'm scrambling to jump on any grant proposal, corporate contract, or opportunity that gets us money. I really want to do my best to help minimize losses.

Stress has me a mess again. It's like work is taking everything I have just to keep up right now.

It would be so nice if this year would stop throwing us stress filled curve balls. >⁠.⁠<

If you do go over there check out Eat Thai, it's one of my favorite spots in the city for lunch. ^⁠_⁠^

Ok, is it just me or do the stars and sparkles seem to indicate recent TF.

Ya know, I have art of me hypnotizing people, but I don't have any of someone zonking me. Hmmm...

Pro tip for retail interactions: become big and intimidating to win

A sketched scene of two anthro red pandas raising arms to be big and intimidating at each other. One is saying, "I want to speak to your manager." The other is replying, "I AM the manager." They are in an electronics shop and other customers mill about in the background.

I now have a Rangpour lime tree.

I got to hypnotize two first timers yesterday (one I did in person in my lounge!) and both went incredibly well. It's so fun and rewarding to watch someone's reaction to the first time they get to experience trance.

You've seen fireworks that look like jellyfish, but what about a jellyfish that looks like fireworks? The E/V Nautilus filmed this rare Halitrephes maasi jellyfish glowing like a firework at a depth of 4,019 feet (1,225 meters) off the coast of Baja California, Mexico. (📷: Ocean Exploration Trust)

The current administration here is ruining this country. It's going to take us decades to undo the damage to the sciences.

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

They announced layoffs coming at work because of funding cuts to the sciences. I hate this timeline.

I'm very doom and gloom today. I don't like that feeling, I'm usually pretty optimistic.

40 minutes to go less than 7 miles. The road closures around here are getting out of hand. There's way too much construction going on in the city. When everything is open my commute is a brisk 20 minutes. Sometimes it takes me even longer to get home. I want that extra time back. :⁠-⁠(

As a purple red panda I concur.

Huh, I have a drone and a VR headset, I wonder if I could hack something together.

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

Guh, this happens to me every few years where I start shopping for airplanes then have to remind myself that the sports car was more than I wanted to maintain so I got rid of it, a plane would be way worse.

I think I might be in my plant girl era.

Whoa, I had a weird dream last night about losing most of my left index finger. Strangely it was mostly just an annoyance and I was resolved to just build a little mechanical replacement for the section that I lost. I wonder what that means?

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

I will never look at the term "core dump" the same way again.

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Last night @summervixen.bsky.social absolutely wrecked me with a hypnosis session that hit harder than any other one I've experienced. I have a very specific memory that I'm having trouble reconciling because I know it's impossible, and yet there it is. Wheeeew. 🫠

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

I like -just-put in an order for one because I've had an itch to customize some of my clothing, for reasons. Want me to hit you up once I'm comfortable using it?

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Frankly, if I had a team of furries and I thought HR wouldn't care I would so manage like this. :⁠-⁠P

Eeee, there's a certain bunny that I get to hypnotize tonight and I am straight up squirming over what I get to do to her. 🥰🐰💧💦🌧️🤱

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

The right ear speaker on my VR headset is crackley so I bought a replacement on ifixit. I took it all apart to install it. But it turns out the "right" speaker that I bought is actually the left if you're wearing it. So another order placed and I'll have to take it apart -again-.

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

I really need to get back into doing regular sessions with people. This really scratched an itch.

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

On top of that I looked in the mirror this morning and felt like an absolute swamp hag. >⁠.⁠<

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Guh, I have been having "dysphoria nightmares" the last couple nights where the subject matter focuses around my insecurities about being trans. Night before last a lady wouldn't sell me a dress that I had ordered, last night I was at my old place of work repeatedly being called my deadname. Guh...

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

I just did a kind of impromptu hypnosis session with a certain fox and left her seriously, totally scrambled. I seriously could not be more pleased with myself. ^⁠_⁠^

I managed a full 8 hours. It was glorious.

Nice. I have worn a pair of ears to a meeting before, can't say as I've shown up in one of my suits though!

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

I also think it's funny that 2 decades of Catholicism discouraging me from embracing who I am only delayed and didn't stop me from being a queer and kinky trans girl. 😇

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

I think it's funny that my Catholic high school had a uniform dress code 'to prepare us to dress for our future jobs" and how I now manage a team while frequently in my pajamas. Heck even when in the office most folks are doing the T-shirt and jeans thing.

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Whew, now that I'm on the other side of it 50 may have been a bit ambitious.

A 50mg edible? Yeah that should knock the edge off this migraine. BRB, heading to space.

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

I get that, sometimes getting that wrecked is a heck of a release even if there are some unpleasant effects.

What an adorable plush red panda! I love it.

Ooooooh I will have to add another movie to the watch list, my husband and I love a good horror film.

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

Guuuh, I have been getting all of my kinks satisfied so often lately, it's just spectacular. I wish I had been comfortable enough to embrace all this years ago, but no time like the present to make up for lost time.

Candice @candicemakes.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

Cleared an entire plan of action and milestones list against our system security. There was soooo much from tech debt, but I got the team across the finish line.
