What the hell is going on? This is the second night in a row. Legitimately, I have already witnessed a few assaults on people trying to get to their hotels that people need to walk in groups or just straight up avoid walking at night. This is really frustrating.
Per the email:
To all our Anthrocon attendees,
Anthrocon has been closely monitoring the extreme heat and severe weather situation in Pittsburgh forecast for this weekend. Convention leadership has been in contact with emergency services personnel and other entities regarding this situation.
After careful consideration for the health, safety, and wellbeing of our fursuiters, attendees, and residents of Pittsburgh, Anthrocon has decided to cancel the 2026 Fursuit Parade and Block Party scheduled for 2pm, July 4th.
We know both Anthrocon attendees and our friends in Pittsburgh look forward to this event every year; but the health and safety of all concerned is our paramount priority.
Anthrocon attendees should look for announcements of alternative indoor activities in place of the parade this year. We apologize for the necessity of this decision and hope you’ll continue to enjoy the events throughout the holiday weekend.
Sincerely, Anthrocon, Inc.
I have autism and I struggle with dry hands, it makes me shut down really bad as I hate the sensation of dry hands. The Advanced Therapy lotion was/is the perfect moisturizer for me because it feels like it absorbs into my hands quickly and doesnt leave a greasy residue nor makes my hands sticky. I’ve already sent an email to their company because the discontinuation makes me so sad! Is there any similar lotions out there that I can fall back on?
