Snap E. Tiger with Kitwana and Kijani outside Tonic at Anthrocon in 2016

Postcard sent with the completed Kato Lion fursuit, the first commission Snap E. Tiger did under the ByCats4Cats name

Devastated by Snap E. Tiger’s passing. His personality & kindness matched his larger than life stature.

I commissioned him for my first alt Kato in 2009, jump starting ByCats4Cats which created hundreds of amazing works of wearable art. His legacy will live on through them forever.

Rest In Peace 🐯

25 years in the fandom and he was one of those I could always count on for a good chat and a good drink. I’m sure I’ll be having one or two tonight.

I’m just crushed right now… Newlyn would not have been possible without the work of @bycats4cats.bsky.social

Snap was an amazing artist and suit maker who many in the fandom owe their thanks to bringing their fursona to life.

Rest in peace @bycats4cats.bsky.social. The fandom has lost an incredible artist and a great person.

I'm just crushed right now.

Pictures from AC '15, I was there because of Snap and later that year he finished Red's full suit.

A sad day for the furry community.

It has been informed by his husband Thor that last night, Eric “Snapcat” Stevens AKA @bycats4cats.bsky.social unfortunately passed away from a heart attack.

I have no words for this loss and my friend Snap will be very sorely missed.
💜💛💚❤️💙

Spent about $15.00 and 3 hours of going thru bulk at the local card shop today, but most of my Scarlet and Violet 151 set is complete! Have quite a few of the special rares to go, but they will come in time and already have the chase cards! #pokemontcg

Happy #NationalTradingCardDay!

I know there’s not a lot of 10s here but this is my pride. Love what you collect and love what you do!
Thanks to @gmnchampion.bsky.social for the video! ^.^

I told myself I wanted to finish all the HF expansions before playing HF 2. Nearly done with Dine Out :)

Tranceport vol 1 by Paul Oakenfold. Still about the best mix album I’ve ever listened to

I pulled out my old #PokemonTCG collection a few months ago and sent it to a friend of mine who is helping me get some of the gems graded and also redid the binder, but thought I’d share some results here. Another batch has been sent for grading!

I cannot thank @gmnchampion.bsky.social enough

It's perfectly okay! Just glad you are okay and I hope you were able to get things in better order! <3

I am glad you are still here, my friend! I missed you!

Doc: “So um…you about done in there or what?”

Finished Ghost of Tsushima tonight. Easily one of if not the best game I have EVER played. The story was so powerful and it was an artistic and cinematic masterpiece.

Interviewed with a prospective job on Tuesday and was nervous about it but they must have liked me because offer was received today well above starting rate and bonus.

New job starts 11/17 and I couldn’t be happier!!

How can something that knows so much fear... be inside of me? Yet it burn with a spirit so... irrepressible? Such contradiction should be impossible yet it stirs within me all the same. This inner child... Demands more than I am capable of giving. ...right now But I am still learning how to give more... ...to allow my vulnerability to become my strength. And to reclaim my youth – not through power – but through the love I grant to myself.

Drawing Mewtwo ended up making me teary eyes after realizing what little childhood he had. I like to think of the idea that Mewtwo tries regression and looks inwards like I do, to that vulnerable and powerful inner child, and heals.

So I finished Horizon II Forbidden West and Burning Shores....what should be my next game? Both of these will be first playthroughs!

Ghost of Tsushima
or
Clair Obscur Expedition 33

Y’all are gonna think this is weird as hell but last night I slept better than I have in ages. Yes I have to find a new job, but I didn’t worry about having to return voicemails, or meeting some metric, or worry about some manager/executive’s worry of the week…it was a bit strange but liberating.

Welp….as of 1:00 today I am no longer employed. Fucking sucks…processed thousands of claims over 5 1/2 years without error and my career was ended on two mistakes.

Now what the fuck do I do…

Damn right we believe!!

Time for @alyankovic.bsky.social at Ford Amphitheater!!

I'm crying two sets of tears tonight...
One set because I had to say goodbye to a longtime home in FFXIV
The other set because Home Free is covering one of my all time favorite songs, "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald"

More and more reasons my job is secure :p

Had a blast seeing the Savannah Bananas today!! Perfect weather and a heck of a great time!!

Furthest I've been from my current home (Colorado Springs, CO):

N - Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
S - College Station, TX
E - Athens, Greece
W - Kandahar, Afghanistan

WWE had every opportunity to do something different with the MITB contract, but went with what pisses the most people off and most of the IWC predicted would happen. Great job fucknuts… #SummerSlam

My favorite! Good FF to get into!

Who woulda thought Indy would be more boring than F1 this season?

Had to get some new work clothes at Dillards and came home with a cat toy.
