My MFA residency is winding to a close, and tonight there was a social event costume party and talent show.

No one had real costumes on. They were all wearing goofy or amusing hats. (No Klan or NAZI hats though.)

So I went and put on my beaver hat, which I had made from a big beaver I caught about a dozen years back.

I don't know if y'all know how Zoom works. I didn't before this residency. The host sets up a virtual room, and sends invitation links to the participants. Whoever is speaking at the time shows up on a big screen, and the others are on little screens.

Anyway, someone asked what kind of hat it was, and I told them. My hat appeared on the big screen in all its glory. Then there came a voice from the background: "Oh. Someone's wearing a fur hat..." And then all was silent.

It's funny how we are defined by the company we're with at the time. I'm rapidly becoming known as the conservative at Stonecoast, where most are what I'd call far left.

Tell those lefties how it is, James!

Now James: Surely your parents warned you that birds of a feather.........
Quit associating with folks of that ilk.
For Heaven's sake, you should know better!

Straighten them out, James.

The "faux" pas would've been if you were wearing "faux" fur!

Remember James, a liberal slant is about the subjective = feelings/ how I feel about that
You're turning into a conservative will only irritate them when you try to use logic/fact.
Liberals are not at all interested in 2 + 2 = 4 (logic)
If they feel 2 is 4 or 4 is 2, well then it is.
Or you're a beaver hat wearing XcXH### racist!!!!!

I'll prayer you come out unscathed.

Blessings

“Faux” shore lol

I felt like I'd farted into the microphone or something.

After a while I took the hat off because it's so warm. I've worn that hat outside in -20 weather and had my head get hot.

Jim

Consider yourself CANCELED.

Hahahaha!!

James, are you sure your going to pass the class lol.

No.

Jim

Little precious commies. Cut their power for about 10 days straight so their phones drain completely and they have no internet access, and we'll see how bossy they are then. Give them another 20 days without juice and we'll see if they're not eating animals caught by trappers...

For your next meeting James, just borrow a skull mask or full head from the gal down here at Gold Standard Furs.

that goes to show you just how far Left modern "education" has become.

when James is considered "conservative", that is one messed up population!

It'll be ok, they're all for inclusiveness.

Did you apologize?

Good on the hat James. What is "MFA" and "Stonecoast"?

gotta dance with the one that brought ya big guy.

I don't understand. I was on a cruise at the time but I heard leftist were protesting all over Washington D.C. wearing beaver hats back when Trump was inaugurated??
