As part of a wave of layoffs, I got laid off from my backend development job last month as the company's financials I was working with have been steadily decreasing. I applied for another job shortly after, and after a month of interviews and an honestly great response from their team, at the last minute, they told me that they were focusing their hiring efforts away from the US and towards Singapore. With Treebird donations, I don't have enough money to pay for rent or groceries. So I'm asking to #GetFediHired, I'm the lead developer on the Treebird project, and I'm a retarded, schizoid C developer. I have 3+ years of enterprise experience, and I work great on teams as well as solo. Resume and references available upon request.

To cap off this series of effortposts, one more inconvenient truth I think is worth noting is that in the furry scene, there's two things worth remembering. The first is that furries are highly influenced by each other, if you're an artist you'll get numerous autists copying you or wanting a character in your universe. The second thing is that well, furries are influenced by porn and fetishes. The third is that many broken people use the fandom to have every single fetish enabled, without the fear of mom and dad's disapproval. But don't take my word for it.

One blog by a furry who was running a website hosting one infamous furry survey had a gem of a schizopost a few years back saying the quiet part out loud; that said author would not have been pressured into it so easily if not for being in a community that literally enables it.

Essentially, the furry "fandom" was a perfect storm for this mindset to catch fire. By offering the delusion of "true self", one can be convinced if they put on socks and take drugs, their life will be fixed, and this is made worse by the fact that every furry you run across online will be miserable, depressed, and trying to find their place in life.

The furry fandom is not about being a fan of media about talking animals. It's about escapism and escaping into a world where everything is good, and nothing bad ever happens, and you want to live this world of dopamine hits all day long. It's no different than Second Life, a form of escapism for broken nerds to waste their brains away on, delaying the inevitable.

It’s crazy to think that even the most autistic of the nerd scenes was more normal than a mainstream nerd scene is today nearly 8-10 years ago, but in that time:

Social media, and websites that focused around nerd culture didn’t just go political, but they went all in on it.
While there was a lot of entryism (highlighted by Anita being caught on tape saying she didn’t play games years before her video series, Brianna Wu injecting itself into GG, and on the other side all the ecelebs who used GG for clout from Milo to Ethan Ralph to PJW to QuarterPounder), the hard truth nobody wants to admit is that everyone wound up picking sides, if not before GG during it. Case in point, when Sam Hyde was a lot more political and provocative in 2016-7 around the time of the world peace saga with [a:s], I remember him saying something that it was literally impossible to be in comedy and all and apolitical around this time.
In the furry “fandom” in particular, they didn’t just go turbo political but they went political harder and faster than everyone else. Cons were shut down because of people threatening each other, or at least harassing the shit out of hotels and con operators and attendees. By the time the COVID scare hit, the fandom was pretty damn good about virtue signaling the {current thing}.
Everyone and their grandma decided they were transgender seemingly. Anyone who can describe 2016-8 can describe one thing other than the meltdowns over Trump winning and the two minutes hate over CVille, or Twitter purges: it was not uncommon for entire discord chats to “come out” as trans one by one, with an entire framework there to harass you or cut you off if you spoke out about the dangers.
When the COVID scare happened, furries went all out to ensure that those not pure would not stay in their community. Aside from harassing every single person who wouldn’t virtue signal for George Floyd, the fandom was very self policing about wrongthinkers since that political shitstorm I’ve alluded to. They would literally dox and harass any furry who dared to consider holding a furmeet during the height of the COVID scare. But when cons began again, they were literally having over the top shows to make sure that you had vaccination proof and masked at all times.
A lot of furries, tired of both these issues and the autismlord behavior of furries, decided to call it quits with the “fandom”. The rest are getting eaten alive, refusing to just find another community.

If Meta is really working on a new ActivityPub-powered social network, I see it as a very positive signal overall--my personal feelings towards Meta notwithstanding. For one, it's validation for our entire ecosystem from the biggest player. It also tells me that they don't see themselves as strong enough to keep users locked inside their walled garden anymore. It means the tide is really turning for interoperable social media, and that's always been the goal.

Modern nintendo consoles: didnt use me in a year? Oopsie, bricked! Actually used the controller more than 5 minutes? Broken joystick. Had an impure thought in a 5 mile radius of the console? It is on fire now.

The DS: yeah im old as fuck and you dropped me down a flight of stairs but hey im good, just a scratch. Ripped off the top screen in a ragequit? You could still use me to play gba games

What does this chemtrail do?
