Captain Mineass #3808

April 1st, 2026

Ya knew it was gonna bite Kevin in the ass. The Captain just likes to play the long game before he strikes…

How’re y’all doing tonight? I’m okay.

Texas Furry Fiesta was swell, though admittedly I didn’t do all that much outside of walk around some and sit with friends and chat. Didn’t buy anything except for a parking spot that cost me thirty godforsaken dollars. The internet lied to me about it being $10! I could’ve just gone and drive home, park, then taken DART to the hotel, but that would’ve been about another 45 minutes to an hour before I’d gotten there. I definitely would’ve done that had I not gone home and ate lunch with my folks (which was also swell outside a few political comments which happens every fucking time, but I digress). There was a lot of neat looking fursuits that continue to stoke my “I wish I had a cute furry girl fursuit” dreams that I’ve had since like middle school. But also fuuuuuuuuck some people were selling premade fursuit masks for like $2k-5k! No way I can afford that! Maybe when that final $5k of my student loans is paid off… and then refill my emergency funds again.

Or stop buying anime and save…

At least now I have people to go to a convention with. Before the idea was that I’d get a fursuit but then have nobody to go with to a convention so it’d just be wearing it at home. But there’s little to no room at my place so it’d just wind up sitting in a closet collecting dust forever.

I’ve always like Remimake’s suits and almost got one secondhand years ago but was a split second too slow and missed my chance.

In other news I saw the new Mario movie. As a movie it’s kinda mediocre to bad. The plot sucks, lot of the jokes suck. But as a Red Letter Media style “I clapped because I know what that is!!!!” movie it was fun. Basically just spotting shit from games I know. I liked the 2D animation they did for when Star Fox shows up and explains his backstory as to why he’s there.

Also saw A Magnificent Life, the new Sylvain Chomet film, which as a movie is leagues better than Mario. Fantastic 2D animation in it. It caught me by surprise that it was in theaters last Friday. I was looking to see what to watch for that week and saw it all the way at the bottom of the list. Pretty sure I saw a reference to Jacques Tati in it at one point. Basically it’s about an old real life playwright/movie director from the early 1900s in the early days of French cinema. Hadn’t heard of that particular director either until I saw the film. I recommend it. Here’s the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzm05nTpiXs

Anyway that’s all for this week! We’ll continue the adventures of the brave Captain Mineass next time! Tally ho~!
