Conning While Chronically Ill: Spoonies Find a Way
Friday August 21, 2026 2:30pm - 3:30pm EDT
Con weekend is magical, chaotic, exciting, exhausting, and sometimes feels like opening a dinosaur park without enough safety protocols... now add fur, paws, tails, badges, crowds, and a body that may have its own plans. This panel is for chronically ill, disabled, neurodivergent, mobility-aid-using, heat-sensitive, and low-spoon attendees, as well as allies, handlers, and support furs who want to help make con more accessible.
We’ll talk about practical ways to plan ahead, pace yourself, prepare for flare-ups, communicate your needs, and enjoy the weekend in a way that works for your body. We’ll also touch on fursuiting while chronically ill, because life finds a way... and so do spoonies. 🦖🐾
TL;DR:
A simple survival guide panel for chronically ill, disabled, neurodivergent, heat-sensitive, mobility-aid-using, low-energy attendees, and allys/support furs. Learn how to plan ahead, pack helpful items, take breaks, handle flare-ups or overwhelm, ask for support, and enjoy the convention in a way that works for your body.

Dr. Nathan Barling and Dr. Michael O’Sullivan from PalaeoGames discuss their approach to using science to not only educate, but also add depth to gameplay and storytelling. Learn how they use the science (and occasionally science memes) to create believable behaviours, varied attacks, and a better gameplay experience for everyone
