$8 for those? Fuck it, I'm selling 3D printed knickknacks to furries for a living

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 30 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

A perfect example of how capitalism penalizes the disabled and neurodiverse though.

"Oh, you have sensory issues? That'll be $8 per issue or guess you'll just have to deal"

In my endless resourcefulness, I've solved this problem for free with a little trick I like to call dissociative episode

These are for fursuiters who have a hard time being heard under all the fluff

[–] invo_rt@hexbear.net 26 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I wrote paragraphs critiquing this sentiment as someone inside the fandom, but I got five paragraphs in and was veering into capitalist realism so I stopped myself.

Rather than some wordy, pseudo-lefty analysis, I'll just say we have a glut of people doing that already and it sucks then follow with an emoji.

Definitely fragile poops. Not sure what that means but I've been having digestive troubles lately so I feel like I relate

[–] take_five_seconds@hexbear.net 24 points 1 month ago (1 children)

These are incredibly useful for fursuiters. Especially those without an experienced handler.

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is a handler someone who helps suiters not bump into everything?

[–] Yukiko@hexbear.net 19 points 1 month ago

Correct. Also helps keeps them hydrated and stuff. Make sure they don't die from heat stroke. That kinda stuff

[–] take_five_seconds@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago (2 children)

definitely did not intend for this post to punch down on my furry comrades, consent badges are such a cool idea! kinda silly they are $8 a piece tho.

[–] dannoffs@hexbear.net 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

These aren't like official badges or anything, it's just some person selling them. You could just make your own for zero dollars.

I assume from some of them talking about props that these are for cosplayers at cons? But all the ones specifically about hugs remind me of this book we read our kid called "Don't Hug Doug" about how some people don't want to be touched and you need to get permission before showing people physical affection.

At one point it points out that you can hug a porcupine, but it's not recommended.

Very cute book.

[–] pooh@hexbear.net 16 points 1 month ago

I need a Rolodex to go with these.

Also, I do not consent to those prices.

These go on a catboy collar?

[–] take_five_seconds@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

basically! consent badges from a furry convention.

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

Not right now, I'm on break

[–] AernaLingus@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Prone to overheating
Uppies? Please pick me up!
Please hug me! cuddle
Overwhelmed easily
Social anxiety - please be patient
I don't know what pronoun badge to pick screm-aaaaa (I know my flair says "any" but what it really means is "there's a pronoun that makes me happier to hear but I'm too chickenshit to ask for it")

One time when I was super depressed I randomly ran into a fursuiter in public and they gave me a big hug and a piece of candy and it really cheered me up, at least for that day. Honestly makes me tear up just thinking about it. It's amazing what a difference a simple gesture of connection and kindness can make when you're feeling so utterly alone and alienated.
