i mean ive jerked off to some anthro shit before, but i feel like the furry community in general is into some pretty degenerate kinks. nothing's really wrong with it, but most furrys come across as pretty strange
I'd say I've enjoyed some of the art, sure. By the same token fantasy art could be considered 'furry'. C.S. Lewis' 'Chronicles of Narnia' with the many talking animals. Any of the Redwall books and their art. Mr. Toad.
I cannot remember what series Mr. Toad is from.
I also tend to take the "live and let live "approach. I mean we are all strange to someone . It's more of a question of "what kind of filthy degenerate are you?" It's a spectrum and how weird you are depends on their position in relation to your own.
I'd agree with you, Nimble. I'd also point out that the 'degenerates' still enjoy the 'vanilla'.
Plus I'm old and I've been on the internet for some time. While I avoid most of the freaky stuff directly, I've seen and heard about a lot of things.
The internet used to be the wild fucking west. With all the censoring and stuff now it's not nearly as bad lol
@Brokkr And what 'Vanilla' means also varies to different people.
Very true.
You know you're old when you have memories of printing out images for private purposes from a floppy disc to a dot matrix printer.
True that.
Kids now don't even know what floppy disks are for.
I volunteered at a community center once and they were using old floppies for art projects.
Turning them into coasters
Kids had no idea what they were lol
I was the only person on my social media platform that mourned the death of Ralph H. Baer.
No one knew who he was.
Lol. To be fair I only know of him because of my father.
But take comfort in knowing that you are at least young and hip enough to have social media
I feel like anyone who plays video games at all should learn about him.
I have zero social media.
Haha. I used to have Facebook. It has since been deleted.
who tf is that
Except what I get from the news, independent sources on youtube or just living in the general craziness.
Alexander, google him.
@Alexanderjac Shhh the adults are talking
Never had facebook. The concept always creeped me out
sorry i wasnt born in 1960 lmao
Neither was I.
I do have LinkedIn if that counts.
It does count. LinkedIn is what Facebook initially was.
@Alexanderjac I'm just teasing. Like I said that more of my Dad's thing lol
Alexander: I was born in '81.
If he wasn't a software engineer I would have zero fucking clue who that was.
That's fair, I guess. Still....being the father of gaming consoles as a whole....
@Brokkr At least I'm not as unplugged as I Thought
And yeah but when you are a kid you don't really care about that stuff, (Being the father of an invention, or even where something came from) Unless someone teaches you to respect it or think about it.
i mean does it really count though? hes made a console that no one's ever heard of, and it's not like he invented electronics
If Ralph didn't make the first console you wouldn't have Xbox.
@Alexanderjac That's a good point. I think maybe he just mainstreamed the concept?
At least not in its current format.
Maybe. I think it's just one of the tid-bits of knowledge that is nice to know but not crucial. You can still love games and stuff without knowing the expansive history. I think as older people we typically have a lot of respect for the things we remember or experienced. It's not bad the younger generation doesn't know about it or care.
