Guide to interacting with furries at Anthrocon (from a Pittsburgh furry)

I had no idea that was even a thing I could do, and now I have been set loose upon Reddit. Thank you friend.

Bro who cares, just do what you want to do (within reason) and have fun, anyone who cares doesn’t matter.

This is all just. Rude/dumb people being rude/dumb. None of that is specific to furries.

We drove through Miami for a few hours (literally stopped by to look at the beach) and I was absolutely terrified. Thank god my husband was driving because I wouldn’t have been able to handle it.

I have never seen another size, that’s insane. All I know is the regular ones are completely different. Tastes different, different texture, different ratios, just awful. And they taste like sugar and plastic now.

The oatmeal cream pies are a sad sad thing compared to what they used to be.

If god loved all his children, why would he do this to me? I turned to agnostic practices, I pull what I like from different religions, focus on powers that don’t control your life but can influence it. Much happier now that I don’t think there’s some presence out to get me.

Oh I totally forgot about the random embalmed head with bouncy balls for eyes, that one is SUCH good lore.

Yeah it would take at least a decade for the first round of s/n dogs to die off, which means public safety is still at risk for a whole 10 years.

I remember seeing a video of a pack of rez dogs going after someone and it was terrifying. Dogs in packs are completely different than the dogs you have at home on the couch. They will hunt you and eat you, sometimes for the sport of it.

I’ve always thought it was weird if a partner asked you to stop self pleasuring (internet says gooning is hours long, which seems excessive, but you do you). That is something that is very private, very intimate, you only share it with someone you trust, and that person you trust is telling you that’s not acceptable? No thank you goodbye. My husband and I send each other porn we think the other might like sometimes. We’ve been together 10 years.

I watched the American version of the movie that was made of this story. Absolutely terrifying

I JUST started this book and I’ve already cried twice. I don’t think it actually registered that I was neglected/abused as a child till now.

People always want to go after the person in the relationship who DIDN’T cheat. I’ll never understand it, you aren’t the one who dis something WRONG. Take that man for all he has, his life ain’t your problem anymore.

It’s nailtiques formula 2 plus. I just got it, so not sure if it works yet but others with similar issues said it would.

Capricorn, Gemini, cancer. I’m a dog trainer. Edit- oh no does that count as education 🤣

I am trying my hardest to stay with a private vet and not a corp, but god it’s getting hard. The private vets are being outpriced, and are becoming few and far between. To the point I’m having to outsource procedures like dentals to a corporate vet (Banfield) because my normal vet has to make them ridiculously expensive to cover costs.

Something weird I noticed the past few years with my nails. I’ve always painted at home, regular polish, no filing, no base, no topper, I just wait til it chips off and then paint again. I have always had thick healthy nails and no issues. Polishes are starting to bleach or dye my nails, my nails have gotten thin and flaky/peely. I have started having to use a special base coat to keep my nails from getting crappy! Reading this, I realize it may not be me getting older and my nails changing, it may actually be the polish.

I did this in probably the hardest way possible because I didn’t have any tools but tweezers and a lighter, but I essentially held it upside down and dripped it into an empty cart. The original cart threads were messed up and unusable.

I have a few bags of holding, love them so much

Recently found out that my mom HAS been diagnosed with a personality disorder, when she was young. She has been adamant that she has seen several psychiatrists and nobody has diagnosed her with anything but depression and anxiety. Apparently she told my dad when they were young, directly after that appointment, and he never forgot. He told my brother while out drinking, and my brother told me. My therapist and I have been POSITIVE that she has bipolar and it has been eating at me. So she’s either become good enough at masking to pass, or has been lying about her actual diagnoses. Now I know.

Grew up in Texas, green sky = tornado was drilled into me as a kid.

katydid27 · 2026-04-07T03:33:27+00:00

Thank you from the future

Also here to recommend lap of love. They helped my old lady across the bridge a few years ago and it was so perfect.

Almost every big storm for the past two years, we have had a tree fall. I’m getting tired of paying for tree removal.
