I think it's really important to understand that not necessarily everyone who is nice to you in furry spaces is your friend; but more like your neighbor. We're in community, and you can be friends with your neighbors, but sometimes they're just neighbors and that's okay.
Hey new Seattle furries! - I've been throwing together a bot that asks questions, then spits out whatever city social benefit programs you qualify for, ordered by how much money it'll save you. Good for everyone from 'new homeowner' to 'living in car'. https://t.me/seattleassistancebot #seattle

they wanna create a generation of human beings who have the same temperament as a dog that never saw any other creature or human except their owner as a puppy and grew up up into a neurotic demon. "tolerance of the unexpected or odd" is an essential human skill of equal importance as "swallow water"
maybe i'm old fashion but the coolest thing about video games is being taken to new worlds that i hadn't thought up and experiencing something exciting that the artists behind the game want to show me

This was understood to be a stupid idea at least as early as 1978 "'All the doors on this spacecraft have a cheerful and sunny disposition. It is their pleasure to open for you and their satisfaction to close again with the knowledge of a job well done'"
It could just be that I don't want to be interacting with any person at all, I want to be using a dumb tool and for that tool to not have a personality

This has been a persistent regular thing in every subcultural circle I've ever been in and especially furry, and especially online. I sometimes worry folks have internalized social media to the extent they believe mob violence is the only valid communication style, it's frustrating as heck.
Concerning trend I see online is using social justice language as a mask when talking about issues that at their core are interpersonal conflict. There is nothing wrong with feeling anger, envy, or hurt towards someone, but we need to talk about this in private with our support circles.
I worry about it a lot in subcultural communities (especially my community) because nuclear-grade stochastic terrorism online is the weapon of choice of the far right. It's the primary tool of the culture that would have most of us dead. It's what brought us here. It's not good power.
This doesn't invalidate the feels! Emotion is valid and abuse does exist - It only suggests there might be more focused and constructive ways to deal with that energy than to imagine a power dynamic that truly requires a cinematic last-stand scorched-earth response.

He's actually the best. I left a window open too long last night while trying to locate this low battery chirp (the neighbor's smoke alarm from one building over as it turns out) and he hopped out. I peeked into the alley and pspspspspsed, tapped the window, and he hopped right back inside.
remembered this picture existed and honestly i think more of you should be familiar with it
