A lot of this shit isn't even my speciality, just the kind of retardation you see in movies.

2018-01-25 04:48:49 UTC  

For what it's worth, and I am not using this as an excuse, I think stuff needs to be as accurate as possible and deviations from baseline reality need to be minimalized for maximum effect. This book series is supposed to be both a comedy and pulp novel revival.

2018-01-25 05:07:03 UTC  

Eb is right though with tech stuff. You can probably have a couple of furries really good with tech that help keep the group hidden for realism purposes

2018-01-25 05:43:12 UTC  

You need more than a couple.

2018-01-25 05:43:17 UTC  

These things require teams.

2018-01-25 05:49:23 UTC  

I suggest modifying some of their central ideology; humans themselves are impure and trapped by their own machinations, and the system will do everything it can to protect itself. To break the system will likely require a lot of technological prowess and resources.

2018-01-25 05:50:41 UTC  

(They can't survive or even exist in the first place without technology, so there has to be an ideological workaround that gives them carte blanche to use it.)

2018-01-25 05:51:10 UTC  

I will think on that. It's supposed to be about two people fighting quite a few monsters in the forest. Not a small army.

2018-01-25 05:51:36 UTC  

Like with communism, we have the dictatorship of the proletariat now, THEN use that to create our retarded, impossible utopia.

2018-01-25 05:51:54 UTC  

Well that IS what they're trying to do.

2018-01-25 05:52:29 UTC  

It's why they're so keen on getting the third gens to successfully breed. It would mean they can creat a sustainable populace and don't have to rely on human tech.

2018-01-25 05:52:44 UTC  

Well, their ideology either provides Carte Blanche to use technology "just in this phase of it"(lol), or they don't really ever get started.

2018-01-25 05:53:13 UTC  

Because they'll still need tech to achieve what they want in the later stages.

2018-01-25 05:53:54 UTC  

However, they would still be using things like guns and swords. Not because they are effective weapons, but because they look cool.

2018-01-25 05:54:12 UTC  

That's how thin their idealolgy is. Much like real furries.

2018-01-25 05:54:49 UTC  

A lot of this came from me seeing furries adamantly try to deny their humanity and go on about how terrible human are. It's a constant theme among them.

2018-01-25 05:55:03 UTC  

Or was fifteen years ago anyhow.

2018-01-25 05:55:22 UTC  

While at the same time they could never give up the human made internet. The thing that empowers them.

2018-01-25 05:55:32 UTC  

These people would need a highly unifying ideology, they can't operate unless it also gives them the excuses they need to be able to actually get shit done.

2018-01-25 05:56:50 UTC  

Fringe retards and confirmation bias aren't enough to describe what furries actually are.

2018-01-25 05:57:08 UTC  

Now, I've certainly SEEN that thread, but it's not particularly common.

2018-01-25 05:57:24 UTC  

Also, refusing to give up tech tells you all you need to know.

2018-01-25 05:58:21 UTC  

And going on about how terrible humans are doesn't mean you won't use their knowledge and tech.

2018-01-25 05:58:47 UTC  

Pretty much, but being a fanatic of a poorly thought idealology has a tendency to make people MORE dangerous.

2018-01-25 05:59:00 UTC  

Not really.

2018-01-25 05:59:15 UTC  

Fanatics of VERY well thought out ones are also very, very dangerous.

2018-01-25 05:59:23 UTC  

True

2018-01-25 05:59:45 UTC  

Well, thanks for thinking on this. But I am getting tired. I'm gonna call it a night.

2018-01-25 05:59:48 UTC  

Thanks again.

2018-01-25 05:59:53 UTC  

Night.

2018-01-25 06:54:08 UTC  

@ebowden would you consider yourself a fantatic about anything?

2018-01-25 09:32:43 UTC  

Ears.

2018-01-25 09:32:59 UTC  

This type of ear:

2018-01-25 09:33:12 UTC  

I just want to pet these dogs so bad.

2018-01-25 10:10:34 UTC  

it's Australia day tomorrow so look out for hot takes

2018-01-25 21:48:23 UTC  

I'm tired from work, my day seems hellishly slow. Someone help
