unpopular opinion:
"rockin robin" is a terribly dated song and avians deserve so much better.

we've been trying and failing to escape references to that song for half a century, please just let it die already.

I've said it before and I'll say it again:
If you're a furry and enjoy prog rock AT ALL, you NEED to be listening to Floralia. Her patient & melodic sound hearkens back to classic 60s/70s prog, and gets more refined with each release.

I am SO HYPE for this new album.

"IV"
new 10 track album from FLORALIA.

anyway if you're going to #Furpoc2025 and wanna hear me try and fit as many different #furrymusic artists as I can into a garage-housey main stage DJ set, you should consider checking out BirdBoy's set Sat. Nov 1st at 11pm... 👀

YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST.
I'll be DJing at #Furpoc2025 as BirdBoy on SAT @ 11PM with all the #BIRDHOUSE [jackin' house, garage, nudisco, furry music, & more] you've come to expect!

(full poster once i make it, whoops 🙃)

it's kinda cringe but I'm also sorta glad I started using "BIRDHOUSE" as a catch-all for everything I DJ, since I'm reaching the point where I just wanna include every furry-made track within my tempo range and just... make it fit...

thraten ^v^ @thraten.bsky.social · 4d

I never found out the identity of this fox but this silly flier was seriously a highlight of #Furpoc2024 for me...

I love you, mystery ghost-fox fursuiter... 🥺🧡

"HAVE YOU SEEN THIS FOX? / look at this dork / orange eyes, derpy as heck, 2 brain cells / fox has been spotted wandering around furpocalypse 2024" the one remaining rip-off tab at the bottom reads "i have now"

❤️GOJII❤️ / wolfears @ Cantab Underground Nov 28th @gojiimusic.bsky.social · 5d

remember the best way to have a direct impact on your local furry con/event is to volunteer or join their staff!

all growing cons need help right now, and you might come away with a new perspective of what it takes to run an event of that scale--very few con decisions are as simple as you'd think!

what's a "room block opening?"

anyway this is currently the best carcrashvictims track. i hope the forthcoming EP is even better.

"Pablo the Little Red Fox," a UK kids' minishow about a family of foxes exploring a city. It's pretty adorable 💜

I remember growing up with a US dub with faked American accents that's mostly lost media now, but the full UK series is on YouTube.
