PSA - The furry fandom is what YOU make it for yourself. If someone tells you how horrible and corrupt it is, then that is the experience they created for themselves. Some of us are just over here in the corner with our mates having a great time.
It’s official! Been offered the new job - going to be running my very own veterinary practice! Excited to try on some new challenges and be living by the beach! Big step up in pay and holidays too. Going to be a big positive change in my life <3
Seen a lot of posts saying you need an expensive fursuit to "get anywhere in the social circle" of this fandom. I think the real issue here is that you feel you need to be in the so called "popular group" in the first place. As if the rest of the fandom isnt good enough for you
Do short guys hate it when you talk about how cute and smol they are, or do they love it? I’m always a little nervous about upsetting people but also cannot contain my emotions about how much i love tiny fursuiters.
Welp. That’s it. He’s moved out. End of a era. Such a fucking stupid end.
I would of stayed with him forever.
Now just gotta focus on work and friends and power on through this hoping there is some kinda reason for it all. Cause what else is there to do?
Just FYI dash is a character I pretend to be, a sweet, innocent tiger, who is nice to everyone. The real me is actually an adult human who drinks, works a proffesional job and has regular friends. If you try to talk to me expecting dash, prepare to be surprised!

Thats america for you. This conversation would get him a big fine in the UK and very likely arrested in AUS. Employees may as well not have rights in america.
“Oh i cant wear a mask i have asthma”
No problem! You can wait outside while i examine your cat, and then I will phone you.
“Oh actually I can wear a mask”
Did I just find the cure for asthma!?
I wish there was like, a fursuiter con, where they cranked the aircon up so high that it would be cold even in fursuit. Non fursuiters can come, but it would be so cold theyd need a winter coat to survive. Maybe at an ice bar ooooooh thats an idea!
Took a risk and asked my new employer for £2000 extra per year. Took them only 30 minutes to turn around and say yes XD
Either I’m very lucky or I should of asked for more 😂 😂 😂
Spent the weekend in Normandy with this wonderful lion. Truly a wonderful host - I felt so welcomed and it was a time I’ll not soon forget. Thank you so much

People sometimes tell me they find it weird that i dont get offended when someone tells a gay joke. I’m like, why would i get offended? If jokes are the worst of my problems i must be doing pretty well!
I was in the fandom years before I got Dash, i had the same number of friends back then as I do now. If your struggling to make connections now, a fursuit isnt going to make you instantly popular. This stupid belief needs to stop XD
People are always surprised when I tell them Im really shy and awkward around other fursuiters (when I’m not in fursuit). It super sucks too cause I really wanna hug some of them :3
I just never know what to do!!!
I must give off a bad first impression. People are constantly telling me they thought I was a dick when they first met me “but you’re actually a cool guy”. Like yep, Its true, I havnt tortured any puppies or committed genocide, crazy right! Does this happen to anyone else?!
Found the perfect house to rent - only problem is the five hour mandatory viewing trip XD will probably be competing with 8 other people too... want it so bad though! Its right next to work, garden, dogs allowed, 2 story terraced house, modern refurbishment.
Had a shitty performance review at work. Apparently I intimidate the other vets and make them feel stupid. Well maybe if your going to do a shitty job dont be so sensitive about it?

@xavoto_fox
can’t wait to see you both again, hope it is soon!
Ive lost 12kg on my diet since I last wore my fursuit and I’m looking forward to seeing how much better it fits ^.^
Just 3kg more to hit my goal weight!!
I know this is a totally pedantic and unnecessary dumb veterinarian thing but coopertom has too many teeth to be classified as a cat 🐱 and shall now be relegated to dog status 🐶
Really grateful i didnt grow up in a religious household. Watching someone go through explaining they dont fit their perfect churches vision to their parents and having to leave home is awful.
I am glad i stepped away from youtube/twitter when I did. A fair few of this next generation of content creators seem more...toxic? Like being angry about everything and posting in memes gets you the most views, which then kind of turns them into real life versions of that energy
