(1/3) DEFCON Furs Update: Like many small orgs, we've taken a huge financial hit this year. Rising venue costs, loss of funding programs, and a small volunteer base have forced us to make some tough decisions to stay afloat.

Big DEFCON Furs update! We're sharing a room block + con floor space with QueerCon at BSidesLV. Back at the Piranha/Gypsy complex — joint mixer Friday, show Saturday. CFP is open (Wetware track is back!), CFV too. Badges coming soon at last year's pricing. 2026.dcfurs.com See you in Vegas.

TL;DR: We urgently need a paid vector artist for this year’s DEFCON Furs badge. [1/4] We had an artist lined up for this year’s badge, but they had to step away unexpectedly right as we got to the wire. Shit happens, and we hold no ill will — but it does mean we need to move quickly.

We're extremely excited to finally release our official donation swag! Now if you go to https://soaring.fitness/ and go to our support us page, you can pick up some fits including this comfy design by @kamaustarpaw.bsky.social We've got 4 amazing designs and more on the way, so nab your swag now!

If you are at @furcon.bsky.social today join us this evening for our panel "HACKING THROUGH THE AGES" Room: Hilton: University 8:00 PM - 9:00 PM sched.furtherconfusion.org/detail/5741-...

Hack Your Lives (the Parent Non-Profit Company of DEFCON Furs and Soaring Fitness) will hold its 2025 public Annual Board Meeting on December 16th at 7:30 PM PST. You can join the live stream on YouTube and chat with us! youtube.com/live/Cr9SWww...

I got to help illustrate this badge for @dcfurs.com as part of #defcon33, which took place last weekend. I love creative technical projects, so being part of the collaboration on this furry circuit based toy has been great! Thanks for the chance. Hope it was a fun weekend! #DEFCONFurs #badgelife

We assembled 550 @dcfurs.com badges this year. Here's the YSM20R-2 ripping thru RGB LED placements on the top side! We are picking from a single 8mm feeder since there weren't enough LEDs in total to justify setting up multiple.

So long Vegas! Thank you to the @dcfurs.com for making my first #DefCon such an awesome experience! I made so many good friends and I'll miss you all!!! #HackThePlanet!! #furry #fursuiter #defcon33 #dcfurs #otterlyoliver

We are looking for an artist that can help us design the next iteration of the DEFCON Furs badge. You must have experience with vector art, designing for PCBs is a plus. If you are part of our community (DEFCON/hacker, furry, queer, and/or GNC), and an experienced vector artist, reach out.
