What do you all think of the sizing of @rudderbutts.bsky.social undies? I like things a little snug and tend to go with large, but some brands I need XL.

Does anybody have strong feelings about the canned tunas at Costco? Chix of the Sea is cheapest, then Kirkland, Safe Catch, and Wild Planet is most expensive. I usually get the Safe Catch because it’s ahi and not albacore, but wondering if I’d do a-ok with the cheaper stuff.

Dunno if I should tag him on here, so for now a HUGE THANK YOU to my wonderful gym buddy who put this together for me. First proper leg day since breaking my toe end of July. Felt good! (And may still have made the toe a little cranky again, oops)

For now, I was SO EXCITED to receive this while I was there. Our little Subie has been on so many adventures already, with more to come for sure! Thanks for the great piece, @nicogotchi.bsky.social

Just home from a fantastic weekend at ASC and had to roll right into work singing Yom Kippur services. So more on the con later.

Another great bit of art — thank you so much to @dbruinart.bsky.social for making time to do this badge for me. Hyped to be on my way to #ASC where I can well and truly ‘debut’ myself as Frith. #AnthroSoCal #ASC26 #otter

Last year I regularly thought about being able to quit my church gig, but was ok sticking it out. This year I’m actively fantasizing about them finding my furry/pup socials and confronting me so I can ragequit. So yeah…I think I need to find something else. But for now I still need the $$.

It’s funny to me…new sona, no problem. Got some art, very exciting. New name, took a little work, but got there. But now I’m wondering if it’s time to retire this @ that I’ve been using for just about as long and I’m getting a little choked up about it. It’s probably not just these awful meds 🤔

It might be time to retire my favorite bear paw swimsuit. 😢 After its most recent trip through the wash it’s like all the spandex just kinda… gave up. So saggy now. Can still wear it, but definitely need something better for the beach. But hey, swimsuit shopping sounds fun!

Why otter? For a long while now I’ve been telling myself I need to get in/on the water more, and have finally been making it happen. And, yeah, just feel so “at home” again. Could easily lose hours swimming if given the chance. (And yes I still adore my bear paw speedos) Ft: @leggy.us

So, uh, I learned yesterday that Adderall is really freaking helpful. Have a few more to really test this hypothesis, but the conclusion to this three year loosely goosey testing phase is “yeah probably ADHD.” Now to see if I can get myself together enough to do something about it.

Success! First time out in a new-to-me kayak with more chop than I’m used to was rough going at first, but I settled into it well enough. Hope to get out again soon! (📸: @leggy.us)

Getting in just under the wire here (though SD Pride is next month, yaaaaaaay!). Biiiiiig thanks to @ruffusbleu for this great realization of the new sona I’m working on. Feeling the DaddyOtt vibes. Ready for my HotOtt summer.

Couple commissions still in the works to feel this out, but I’m so excited. Also new name may be in order, apologies to the friends who’ve known me for 10, 20+ years. Yes I have a backstory as to why he’s a sea/river otter hybrid, so no need to nitpick on details if something doesn’t look ‘right’ 😝

My other “new” gym adventure has been getting back in the water. Been telling myself I need to for years, and I finally am. Didn’t realize how much I loved and missed it. Done a little better each swim. …I’m also seriously considering a species change now. The time may have finally come.

Just a little vent here, but like…been in furry for over 20 years now. Yet it has been so agonizingly slow getting to know the community here in SD. And sometimes, like tonight, I find it incredibly frustrating. Ah well, keep plugging along.

Trying to claw my way out of this funk, I thought I’d take a chance and share a lifting vid that I felt pretty good about. Chorus of crickets chirping. Maybe I’ll go climb back in this hole for a while longer. (At least some close friends were encouraging, so there’s that thankfully)

I’m sure this happens with most any field… For whatever reason several bread TikToks have been sent to me. They’re all very showy and lovely, but the bakers do things that just make me 😱. I’m glad more people are baking, but wish it wasn’t all amateurs imitating amateurs.

Not gonna complain that a lot of people got into bread baking in 2020. It’s cool that CA cottage industry laws make home production accessible. But just because you can does not mean you should. My appreciation of those putting years of daily work into the craft may have actually grown even more.
