So, I was wondering... what if I made a dragon variant of my "Pawsitive Transfurmation" shirt?

Any interest out there in "Rawr-sitive Transformation"?

But you already got what you wanted! Not even a full year ago! Dems ran a center-right campaign aimed exclusively at what you consider centrists(committed GOP voters) while abandoning lgbtq people and every other progressive cause and vulnerable group. Remember what happened?

Every smartphone in the world contains a CPU descended from one designed by a trans woman in the 1980s. The Matrix is one of the most influential movie franchises of all time. Electronic music was pioneered and popularized by a trans woman. I could go on

Katie Tightpussy, Editor-In-Chief @katie.bzky.team · 1d

i think my favourite part about being a trans woman is how much of an impact we have on culture. a friend reminded me today about a popular meme format she created. another friend today casually told me about how she was the most notorious roblox hacker when she was a child.

just a day in the life!

I'm happy to take this opportunity to share this awesome pamphlet made by @xerxes.gay

If my memory serves these have been distributed since at least well over a decade ago.

"Fandom" has always rubbed me the wrong way in relation to furries. The distinction does matter.

FURRY IS NOT A FANDOM
How we became radicals, punk rockers, rebels, and a revolutionary subculture without even trying.

FANS OF WHAT?
We haven't been about Bugs Bunny since the 80's. Comic fandom, Star Trek fandom, video game fandom, they all revolve around the output of an industry. Furry grew out of the absence of corporate products catering to our needs. We weren't happy just watching Disney and Looney Tunes over and over again. So we made our own culture.

Furry is not a fandom. It's a scene. We're old-school punk rock, not the Bieber Fan Club. We create our own characters, our own identities, our own images, our own stories. Fandoms have creativity, but it's all riffing off of a product dictated from above. Furry is bottom-up. Everything comes from our ideas, our roleplaying, our experiences, and our culture that we create.

Any furry who rises up and attains some kind of celebrity status does just that: they rise up. From us. Those big-name authors and comic artists who sell books at cons are all writing fan fiction of our brains. In a fandom, the fans are there because of the big names. In furry, it's the other way around, and the big names know it. You can go up to almost any "celebrity" furry and make friends the same way you would with any other fur.

We're a scene. A culture. A community.
A big, global family. There's nothing wrong with fandom, but don't call furry one. Because it's so much more.

ANTI-CONSUMERISM
In the furry economy, mass-produced products aren't the star of the show. Most of our money isn't spent buying stuff, it's spent creating stuff. We commission artwork, but not to hide it in a bookcase.
We put it online to share with the world.
Every commission is one furry buying a gift for the whole community. The art gets produced, and now it's there for everyone to enjoy. Even conbadges and avatars - the most utilitarian, "fashion accessory" form of furry art - tend to end up contributed to the commons.

Most economies are powered by the idea of replicating a product and selling it over and over again to different consumers.
Furry art operates in a radically different way, through making individual contributions to the common wealth of our culture.

Think about how subversive that is. Think about how threatening that idea could be to the elite 1% if we could make the whole world run that way. As furries, we're already living it.

PACK MENTALITY
As furries, we're not afraid to love each other. We'll cuddle no problem, sometimes without even needing to know each other.
In public, no less. We can spend a good portion of our convention time just turning off our brains and enjoying the raw, primal feeling of companionship with relative strangers. We never shake hands when we meet new people. It's always a hug.

This pervasive feeling of love is what helps us build such a strong community. Local furry groups often become close-knit extended families. We form bonds stronger than blood relation. We put the camraderie of church and religious groups to shame.
By putting ourselves into an animal state of mind, we manage to shake off heaping layers of civilization and social conditioning weighing down on us, and connect with each other on a level that's almost unheard of in modern society.

SEXUAL LIBERATION
Furries aren't afraid to celebrate our sexuality.
We're not ashamed of it, like so much of mainstream society. We don't think it's weird to be gay, bi, or straight; to be monogamous, open, or polyamourous; to be reserved about sex, or to be as open as a porn star.

We're picking up where the free love hippies of the 60's left off. We challenge the traditional social order about sexuality, rejecting the idea that there's anything "unacceptable" about it. What society might normally condemn as debauchery or pornography, we celebrate as beauty.

For some of us, our animal identities are a major part of exploring our own sexuality. For others, only the openness of our community is a factor. But as furries, we all tend to have a much more positive, healthy view of sexuality than the rest of the world. We know that sex is human, it's animal, it's human-animal.

FURRY IS RADICAL.
FURRY IS SUBVERSIVE.
FURRY IS REVOLUTION.

We have no audience, because we're all the creators. We have no idols, because we're all on the same level. We have no inhibitions, because love is beautiful. We have no consumerism, because we're all producers.

LET'S EMBRACE OUR NATURE AS MISFITS AND REBELS.
FURRY PRIDE.
SMASH THE MUNDANE.

WHO YOU HAVE NEVER MET.

if you become submissive and defenseless from hearing a phrase as simple as "good girl" or "good puppy" then i fear you are an evolutionary weak link. imagine if an evil woman that was far stronger than you found out and used this against you
