@Azure So for you it's a means of expressing and actualizing traits in yourself you want to bring out more?

gross D&D joke (i'm so sorry) 

@vahnj I'm making choking noises :D

@indi I hadn't actually considered how foxes and coyotes share a similar niche. Definitely a thing worth thinking about in terms of archetype congruences.

@indi I think culture is also a big and unignorable part of it. Like you said in the post we're working as much off of cultural constructs of animals as much as of the animals themselves.

@indi I asked this because I just had a conversation trying to figure out the why for myself :)

@starkatt I feel most comfortable when I can express my identity, and experience the identities of others, via a symbol set that include animal traits (biological and cultural) as a significant component.

That leaves a huge gaping "WHY?" gap, but it does seem to address the "what." ^.^

OPEN THREAD: what does being a furry mean to your personally? When you call yourself one, what does that convey?

Todo today:

- wash car engine compartment
- get replacement radiator cap
- renew vehicle registration (ugh, $)
- apply for jobs
-probably should pay medical bills but bleh, more $

I really love how in Kerbal Space Program, "get out and push" is a valid strategy if your spacecraft runs out of fuel.

It's not a *great* strategy, but on very rare occasions it can save a mission.

@Vulpes_Absurda gosh, those russian foxes are total cuties. A+, would cuddle.

@emanate yep! American tubes even, which means the 5 isn't just an upside-down 2 like it is on the russian ones. I scavenged these from some vintage test equipment :)

I've designed and built my own clock, even.
