Con drop? Yeah. Only thing to do is journal out the feelings. 💔 (And maybe book the next trip!) Take care yourselves, all. Until next time! 🐾

It’s the final hurrah— the Dead Dog Dance at ACFI DJ’d by none other than @zeebraatx.bsky.social ! 😁 I love how his sets always include some 80’s bops. 🔥🐾 @furryinvasion.bsky.social #alamocityfurryinvasion

Might’ve left my chalk mark at @theaustineagle while I was there for @boopsocietyctx.bsky.social ‘s monthly critter mosh. ;) So wonderful seeing old friends and being back again, if only for a little while. 😊

The judges for the 2026 Iron City Pet contest (plus a couple important @steelcitypups members) crawl up on stage for a group photo, hehe! 😊🐾 It was satisfying working together to confer, evaluate the competitors, and determine the winners.

This weekend we sashed the newest Iron City Pet @dionysus_the_party_god_ ! I’m excited to follow her and what contributions she’ll bring to the Pittsburg, PA area for @steelcitypups . ☺️ Judging this weekend was a blast. Great contest & delightful to see many friends again and make a few new ones. 🩷

Selective memory much? Just saying. #lgbtqia

Friday I had a self-care play date with myself! ☺️ I’m not always the best at taking time out of my schedule to slip into littles headspace, so Neil & I made a loose “contract” that every week I’ll show him (aka my babysitter Tristin) one creative thing I made in littles mode. 🩷

My Speckle the Balloon Doggie Telegram sticker pack is coming along nicely (I’m up to 16!), but I couldn’t help myself, I made a few into physical stickers to put on stuff, ehe. 🧡💚🩵🤍❤️ #petplaypride

“You don’t see me waving around a straight Pride flag!” Yeah, I don’t. Why not though? Go for it. Like, just cuz you choose not to do something doesn’t mean I don’t get to. It’s a “free” country. We’re supposed to be proud of our individuality and independent spirit. 🏳️‍🌈

The critter mosh at Furry Migration also had cribs set up by Your Little Space! ☺️ Ofc Champ wanted to curl up in one. So comfy. 🩷 #furrymigration #petplay

I realized that the “tradwife” thing is really basically just roleplaying an old-timey, return-to-simplicity domestic lifestyle. I’d be all for the “trad” thing if it were just seen as a fun kink to indulge occasionally, rather than a political statement. You do your kink thing, I’ll do mine, k?

Happy Birthday to Speckle the Balloon Doggie! 🎈🐾🎂 It’s hard to believe it’s already been a YEAR since Speckle was first inflated. Xe continues to be the bestest friend ever to Taylor. ☺️ So we had to celebrate with some cake! It’s even decorated with balloons— perfect! 💚
