Yay, Furality is here! I don’t know how many people are coming here vs. to my music site since Furality doesn’t give me any dealer’s den click metrics or whatever, but welcome all the same.
I already posted a Furality-specific entry on the blogpuppet, but since this is what I consider my main website, I guess I’ll cover all my bases! So, here’s another little FAQ.
Who are you, exactly?
I’m fluffy. That has been my real-life nickname since 2003, well before I renamed my fursona to match (which happened sometime in 2004 or thereabouts).
Note that “fluffy” is the name I respond to! Sometimes people call me “Sockpuppet” but that’s my band, not my me. Also sometimes people call me “fluffy OwO” because I used to have θωθ in my VRChat username to make it unique. Also that’s not how it’s pronounced.
What species are you?
Me? I’m a human.
Now, my fursona is a critter! I have a song about it.
There’s vague and inconsistent lore about it. The short version is that it’s just a nondescript “generic furry” that takes on aspects I think of as cute.
Previously I had a few separate fursonas, most of whom were porcupines, and one was a grue.
Incidentally, I’m not a therian, but I get why people assume I am.
Okay so what is this website?
This site is pretty much a shrine to my ADHD.
Originally I registered the domain name as a joke (say it out loud if you don’t get it), then later I decided to use it to host one of my webcomics, and then later still I decided to just use it as my main website for everything else. So pretty much everything I do aside from music lives here now.
I don’t really post to much here aside from the blog most of the time, although I’ve been slowly working on rebuilding my shop section. Someday I’ll also get back to working on comics too. In particular, I really want to finish both Lewi and Unity (no relation to the game engine) someday. But I only have so much energy these days (due to some chronic health issues) and I like to focus primarily on music.
What else should I look at while I’m here?
Even though my “main thing” these days is making music, I still do a decent amount of software development. My current big projects:
Publ: the software that powers most of my websites (including this one); in need of some major rewriting, unfortunately
Bandcrash: an app to make it easier to encode, self-host, and sell music online
Canimus: a lightweight protocol for musicians to publish their music to the web with the hope of building a robust, self-hosted, fully-independent streaming network (and I hope to eventually build some client apps for it as well)
I’m also super into coffee which sometimes crosses over with other things.
I also have a billion hobbies that take varying amounts of time and energy. For a hot minute I was doing ceramics and I’m hopefully going to get back into it soon enough (if you came here because of the Furality charity auction and were interested in buying my espresso cups, hi, I see you!) and I also have a bunch of other things I need to get around to listing on my shop. The best way to get notified about those things is probably by followng me on ko-fi, although any new product releases will also appear in this site’s RSS feed.
Speaking of RSS feeds, you can also subscribe to just the categories that you care about, if you don’t want to see everything.
Where else can I find you?
The linkbar on the main page is probably a good starting point. Of all the things there, I’m most active on Mastodon. You can also feel free to join my Discord community which is typically pretty quiet but has some cool people in it.
And of course here’s my VRChat profile. Feel free to join my music group or get some plaid wallpaper for your nameplate.
