hey, furry peeps. in the light of recent events it's not out of the realm of fantasy to assume that furaffinity might close down. so, if you can, try to archive as much as you can, so that we preserve as much art as we can. thank you

edit: i have been informed of furarchiver.net, a tool that makes archiving art from FA easier. please use it liberally.

us healthcare, recent event related 

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social

"When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another such that death results, we call the deed manslaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call his deed murder.

But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, one which is quite as much a death by violence as that by the sword or bullet;

when it deprives thousands of the necessaries of life, places them under conditions in which they cannot live

– forces them, through the strong arm of the law, to remain in such conditions until that death ensues which is the inevitable consequence –

knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual;

disguised, malicious murder, murder against which none can defend himself, which does not seem what it is, because no man sees the murderer, because the death of the victim seems a natural one, since the offence is more one of omission than of commission.

But murder it remains."

Friedrich Engels, 'The Condition of the Working-Class in England', 1845

Death of a Member of the Furry Fandom 

Dragoneer, once known as Preyfar and best known as the owner of FurAffinity has passed away.

@jahtnamas yeah, I had to really go searching for a snippet of the full story since I'm far less connected with the furry community than I used to be, and I was livid when I found out

Death, Furry Fandom, uspol 

@Emmy@furries.club Looking into what happened was absolutely crushing. People ask me why I don't move back to the US and I could just point to this now.

If someone of a significant position in their community can die of preventable disease like this and have their corpse squeezed of every last dollar in plain sight of the people, imagine how many in a country of 300 million are put through the wringer like that in a widely-crippling pandemic that has now taken a few million off that population.

It's beyond time to march on the homes of the profiteers and lobbyists of privatized healthcare, and write our message in blood. Ford had better take note up north too.

@stevelord Love to see it! You'd get along with my old school's tech admin; he turned a bunch of aging hardware into Ubuntu thin clients almost 20 years ago

ITS MY BIRTHDAY TODAY

You know what that means...

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY TODAY

And if on my birthday anybody wanted to give an instance admin a cool little treat you could always go to my Steam and buy me a little something: store.steampowered.com/wishlis

@vkc Terrible design decision by Youtube. Completely fucks with context

the deadline on this is the 25th of August and we've still had nothing. she's running low on food and medication and can only rely on invoices and credit for so long before repayment is due.

it works out to about $200 USD if seeing it in Swedish Kroner was putting people off.

@mos_8502 I can't even look at gacha IRL anymore, I've developed a sociological allergy to cheap mass-produced PVC figures and it makes me sad because it's hard to appreciate the work put into the original sculpts :(

Literally stripping features and breaking workflows and for what?
