I just read that Snap E Tiger @bycats4cats.bsky.social passed away last night due to a heart attack.

He was one of the original suiters / makers I met in the fandom long ago, the pic is from 2001 MFF of his velcro tiger suit.

You'll be missed, my friend.

Healthcare is solid income if you have the stomach for it. You have to deal with a lot of eccentric people.

That sounds like a good choice. My wife and sons have all been in therapy. It's much better than most of the alternatives.

Oh - ok! I misunderstood and thought you were considering a Monster as a treat. A nice steak sounds fine.

Deciding whether to "treat" yourself is a tough call. Have you already made a hard agreement with yourself to get such a treat or would you get more personal feeling of reward by continuing to go cold turkey? I guess ask yourself which fits better with the way your mind works.

Good Luck. That sounds hard.

We all have to fight such thoughts on occasion. If you believe them, they can become self-fulfilling. If you push past, well then you can go on to the next adventure!

Addie is great! And I'd also like to see more of Tampax

Another good one. I did feel the solution was a bit obvious, but I guess that just shows how much Starfleet has forgotten about Klingon culture.

Yes, so far it seems promising.

I'll see if I can track down the easiest way to rewatch The Original Series (abbreviated TOS)

Trek is what kept me sane when I was growing up on the farm.

My best wishes for you and Charlie. We recently lost our family dog to cancer and the pain is still fresh.

I agree. Karl certainly had a large world on Second Life. I'll miss him. Goodbye Karl.

The SIM was full, but at least I managed to watch the livestream. Thanks for getting this info out!

That's actually a pretty photo. Don't believe any voices that say different.

I used to give a presentation on the history of fursuiting back in the early 2000s and I have a few notes on Farallon Seal around here somewhere, at least his creations and style.

Just store them in time-out. Purging is wasteful. Just don't buy new. Stopping the cash flow to Disney is the real goal.

Many of the people on my friends list know Karl Meyer (Crim).
I just received word that he had passed away.

I don't know much as yet save that it was apparently natural causes.

I wanted to make sure that his family knew before I made a public post about it. I'll post more info as I find out.

Thank you for digging out these pics from the first Furry Variety Show 30 years ago!

That was Duckon 4 in 1995. And Steve Plunkett was in the skunk.
