i agree heh. i’m glad i’m a furry during a good time to be one. also, with more tech we get more advanced suits and species like protogens can exist IRL. there’s a lot of suit makers too, so there’s tons of unique styles. it’s neat.

…? you mean us furries? why are there so many furries? lol
if so, the human fascination with animals is ancient. over time we began attributing human traits to their behaviors and started connecting to them on personal and spiritual levels. then when we started making art we depicting those anthropomorphic animals on cave walls.
furries simply inhabit a persona (fursona) to express themselves behind the security of the confidence being that character gives them. a lot of us feel like our fursona is an ideal representation of ourselves. it helps us connect to our own personhood, strangely.
it’s also fun and can be sexy if ya want.

also, may i ask a question? you say “is and remains” a marker for life. i am not well read about these things, is that because DMS is only observed as a biosignature here on Earth, or are you saying it couldn’t possibly have a nonbiological origin?

i wouldn’t identify myself as a communist, i am mentioning it on here. i am well aware of these concerns, trust me. i appreciate the reminders tho!

thank you… i do appreciate it

I truly don’t know if that is an option or not but if so there should be a massive class action suit against them all for causing collecting CPTSD for this nation.

i am literally going in-patient on Monday and then entering a 90-day mental health residential community because i am currently unable to function. i recently lost my job and even had the FBI show up at my house. i am spiraling, i am going fucking insane with rage and fear. i’m going to lose my 13 year relationship if i don’t learn some new coping skills and stabilize myself.
…and i’m pissed. my mental illnesses have been severely exacerbated by the rise of fascism in America. how the fuck am i not supposed feel threatened? i am LGBT, i am an outspoken communist—i’m a large part of what this administration just labeled as an enemy and a terrorist. of course i am falling apart and feeling the need to “get them” before they get me.

my guess: there is an exoplanet, K2-18b, that was discovered to have an abundance of detectable biosignatures in its atmosphere. at the time, there wasn’t much in the way of another explanation that didn’t involve life. however, astronomers recently found a failed star that is filled with biosignature molecules… so… ah lol. now perhaps K2-18b has another explanation after all.

these people are dangerously delusional and personally i’m tired of treating them with kid gloves. they still defend the system because they believe they are on the receiving end of its benefits for following the structure correctly. they think there’s validity in defending our broken process because it can be repaired. it can’t be repaired. we have an oligarchy.

i don’t like how Jacobin takes the “well this probably won’t happen” or “it’ll likely go this way” approach to fascism. it really bothers me how neutrally optimistic they are trying to be as if their professional image is being scrutinized so they can’t engage deeper than that. tbh, it’s foolish to claim such things at this point. Trump and his administration have showed that they are not following any previously laid path, so your reassurance is ultimately hollow. we can’t make predictions based on what would or wouldn’t make sense lol that is sadly irrelevant.

ambivalence isn’t when you write the opinions of an entire group of people off because they’re weird
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
yeah that’s normal you’re fine
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
yes, i am aware. i’m a furry.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
i would also not associate with them, you’re good.

Weird that you think that a bunch of 13 year olds being ok with something means OP is lying about not being ok with it…
weird that you’re focusing on minors when i mentioned two generations
if you make it impossible for me to look past it, we’re probably not gonna get along
most furries are normal about their hobby is the overall point here, and one that i have seen spread like wildfire online the lat 5 or so years. i have seen furry posts on TikTok receive a ton of attention and all the comments are some variation of “why did people hate furries?” or “furries seem cool.” it might be cringey but being cringe is not embarrassing anymore. catch up. it’s freeing.

yeah if you’re a loser
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
furry hate in 2005 was 100% homophobia lol it’s never really gone away either. it’s largely that nowadays too. it’s a way to hate queer people without outwardly hating queer people. they think we don’t see it. it’s also just dumb as hell and a waste of your one life spend any amount of time literally hating people for a hobby that involves playing pretend and using their imagination. oh no, the horror, they can access something you can’t anymore.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
dude lol it’s fine. it’s a hobby. you know it, i know it, everyone knows it. zoomers are fine with furries, alpha even more so. you’re not going to win this just stop. it’s so dumb.

it’s 2025 and people still pretend to hate furries lol

- Comment on A Blackstone CEO got Luigi’d 2 months ago:
lol yeah, that’s fine. i’m not a bot but what i am suggesting is too uncomfortable for you. a revolution is coming, my friend. i don’t know when but a day is gonna come.
- Comment on A Blackstone CEO got Luigi’d 2 months ago:
Ukraine is Ukraine’s fight, Canada is Canada’s, the US’ the US’. we can have a worldwide unification (if possible) as we try to coordinate existing beyond capitalism, but meddling in each other’s countries and cultures has only ever been disastrous. i don’t know life or politics in Ukraine. i don’t know the environment. i don’t know the first thing to help them out in any way. i would be a detriment. and ultimately, they are not organized in an efficient way. it is sad to watch them struggle under a guise of “support” when they are given half-assed attempts at fighting back. but their record is solid right now. Russia is losing. they cannot keep up this war indefinitely.
- Comment on A Blackstone CEO got Luigi’d 2 months ago:
i will gladly die fighting for a genuine change in our society. i may not be the “will of the masses” but i am what is necessary for our continued existence as a species. the masses will eventually recognize this period of revolution as a necessary event that happened much like how American slavery was ended through civil war. your rejection of violence is merely pacifism gone cowardice. you are completely weakened by the enemy and i truly pity you. you are trying to survive though, so i understand. you think if you adapt some of their ideology then you’ll be left alone. you use words like “terrorism” as if they have a real solid definition. it doesn’t. you know it doesn’t.
i’m not going to reduce you to some insult because ultimately i respect you even if you despise me. i wouldn’t feel so strongly about my beliefs i didn’t. i want you to have a life. i want you to have what you need and not ever be in a position where you are suffering simply because another person wanted what you needed and then took it.
- Comment on A Blackstone CEO got Luigi’d 2 months ago:
too bad because it is going to happen. you have no choice but to be liberated and you will eventually be grateful.
- Comment on A Blackstone CEO got Luigi’d 2 months ago:
i do fight for you, comrade. i don’t know how to convey that in a way you can believe even if you ultimately disagree with my methods, but it is true. i am fighting for your right to exist without systemic oppression and the might of the oligarchy. i want all of us to be free from capitalism and its inevitable outcomes. you deserve an existence that supports you; not one that subjugates you, keeps you enslaved, abuses you, throws you away after using you, and will kill you through negligent profit seeking. millions die from capitalism every single year. you are lucky that last year it wasn’t you.
