With more conventions announcing cancellations, it's a good time to remember that a lot of artists are going to be missing out on critical income. If you can, please consider tossing the money you would've spent going to con into artist Patreons or online stores!

Overheard a guy talking to his daughter: “You don’t want to be a jack of all trades and master of none.”
I am here to say to hell with that noise. If you love one thing, devote yourself to it. If you can’t decide, explore. Lots of little knowledge is also valuable.

For as long as I can remember, trans people have been welcome in the furry community. They’re now being attacked by the sorry excuses for human beings in our government.
So let’s keep supporting our trans friends in every way, including voting out the backwards, regressive GOP.

Last night, I was at a Christmas party, and this nice gentleman struck up a conversation with me. Asked what I do. I told him. He said he works in the Trump administration. He then says: "I vote Republican, but I'm socially liberal." Let's discuss this for a second.

Hi, I’m a novelist in a movie. I work on my book for years in plush apartments and remote cabins without any other source of income, and when the book’s done I go on a multi-city tour with big cardboard cutouts of me and sign hundreds of books at each stop.

How to tell you’re in a Kyell Gold novel:
- You’re probably gay or bisexual, and you’re a fox.
- You are good at a sport, but being gay complicates matters.
- It is possible that you will need to talk to someone who has been dead for a long time to figure out your problems.
proposed twitter game: write about your own work as if you're writing one of The Toast's "How to Tell if You're in a ... Novel" series ()

Imagine the lack of empathy you have to have to not only be angry that the government is helping people in need, but to be unable to comprehend how ANYONE could be in favor of helping people in need without benefiting themselves. What sad lumps of coal their hearts must be.

People who have difficult life experiences generally react in one of two ways: (1) “that’s how life is, everyone has to go through it” (often becoming the person who puts others through it); (2) “no one else should have to suffer like I did.”
You can choose empathy. Every time.

Furries also know a lot about this.
Chosen names are for anyone who wants to choose a different name. "I don't have to keep the name my parents gave me if I don't like it" is one of many great life lessons that cis people should learn from trans people.

I mean, I just don't believe any CEO who says "do these things for me, and in turn I'll support your cause/rights." You've already gotten yours. Don't make your support conditional on getting more. If you care about people's rights and causes, support them. Otherwise shut up.

This is a great thread and underscores why the whole system needs to be re-formed from the ground up.
I've been reading cops on cop forums about the protests and the more I read.
It's not even the super evil stuff.
They just seriously don't get it and don't want to. Like the Buffalo incident. When people question them (other cops, not BPD ones) about it, it's normal to them.
