    I don't know what pronoun badge to pick screm-aaaaa (I know my flair says "any" but what it really means is "there's a pronoun that makes me happier to hear but I'm too chickenshit to ask for it")

    One time when I was super depressed I randomly ran into a fursuiter in public and they gave me a big hug and a piece of candy and it really cheered me up, at least for that day. Honestly makes me tear up just thinking about it. It's amazing what a difference a simple gesture of connection and kindness can make when you're feeling so utterly alone and alienated.

      I wrote paragraphs critiquing this sentiment as someone inside the fandom, but I got five paragraphs in and was veering into capitalist realism so I stopped myself.

      Rather than some wordy, pseudo-lefty analysis, I'll just say we have a glut of people doing that already and it sucks then follow with an emoji.

        In my endless resourcefulness, I've solved this problem for free with a little trick I like to call dissociative episode
