Banned? DM Wmill to appeal.
No anti-nautilism posts. See: Eco-fascism Primer
Gossip posts go in c/gossip. Don't post low-hanging fruit here after it gets removed from c/gossip
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
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.
Consent Badges $8 each
I'm "please be patient with me"

Definitely fragile poops. Not sure what that means but I've been having digestive troubles lately so I feel like I relate
ahem uhh that says "props"
These are incredibly useful for fursuiters. Especially those without an experienced handler.
Is a handler someone who helps suiters not bump into everything?
Correct. Also helps keeps them hydrated and stuff. Make sure they don't die from heat stroke. That kinda stuff
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.
These aren't like official badges or anything, it's just some person selling them. You could just make your own for zero dollars.
Consent to be robbed by capitalism badges

DO NOT BOOP!
considering my dog poked me straight in my open eyeball this morning with her snoot, I am very DO NOT BOOP rn
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.
AWKWARD BUT FRIENDLY fits me pretty well I'd say
awkward but friendly; please talk to me
hello ❤️ you look very handsome today, I love your hat
PRONE TO OVERHEATING here
I have naturally low blood pressure and get fainty when it's 90+
I need a Rolodex to go with these.
Also, I do not consent to those prices.
The entire wall at once all the time
These go on a catboy collar?
basically! consent badges from a furry convention.
Honestly didn't expect to be correct.
I am all △s (except for being a suiter, unless you count wearing a human suit?)
Currently Fatigued: Low Energy
Prone to overheating
Not right now, I'm on break

Uppies? Please pick me up!
Please hug me!

Social anxiety - please be patient
I don't know what pronoun badge to pick (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.
who wants uppies?
