2023 MFF in review.
2 years ago
Give me fuel! Give me fire! Give that which I desire!
It was fun!
Only two things cast a shadow on my parade the whole weekend. One of which being that my Twitter was suspended, as *right hook* per *left hook* my *jab* last *kick* journal *leg sweep.*
I tried appealing the suspension but have yet to hear anything back. And being as I don't think it normally takes more than a week for an account to be reviewed I just went ahead and made a new one, along side a Blue Sky account that my buddy
chompa gave to me a code to use while we were eating at Burts Place Wednesday night.
I'll link those below.

Second thing that was rather somber was the fact that no longer was the happy times at Hofbrauhaus to be had. Which sucks so much being as I had many new friends I would have loved to take there!
I wish I could win the lottery or just like...come into a massive sum of money so I could buy that place and put Hofbrauhaus back in there...
Alas...I forged on.
But yes, many new friends were made, hung out with a few old ones, and talked to a few artists and dealers.
Got a new Gideon sketch I need to scan and upload at some point...probably when I get all my stuff together for an art dump.
Looking forward to next year, as long as the Gateway Dirt Nationals doesn't switch up to taking part the first weekend of December like they have in years past. This year was kind of a perfect storm as in they switched to the dates 14th-16th this December.
Wish I could have met more people! But not having a Twitter kind of hindered keeping up with things...
Regardless! I will do my best to be at GFM next year, then MFM, and MFF.
Hope to see you there!
