It’s not, I’ve never heard of it before. However, that is the idea—it’s far too much to handle, and it would hurt to do!

Also, thank you very much, I appreciate it!

Thank you!

My gums feel better already from all this flossing!

Welcome to Furry_IRL! Please note that as an IRL community; we request the post title be a word, followed by “_irl.” The artist credit after is fine and encouraged, so thanks for that, and including detailed sources in the post body!

You posted two things that do this. Please edit the post titles, I appreciate it!

First off, furry_irl is a place for posting memes and other relatable images, not a general community to ask questions. I’m removing this, but I recommend reposting it in furry.

I don’t really know of more furry peertube instances, I mostly know of furry mastodon instances, though those are already well federated with our own instance of pawb.fun. Following the #furry and #furryart tags will help a lot if you aren’t already.

If non-magical intervention is allowed, I think I’m going for the morning after pill while I still have time!

Considering she had a direct hand in the pregnancy, it’s fair to say that the baby is hers—DNA be damned. Also, I’d be more concerned about the delivery itself; this sounds like it’s going to be a spotted hyena situation soon which…ow.

That feels like a high bar, and a high honor. I am flattered! >w<

Forbidden? Call me Exodia after drawing this then, because I’m the forbidden one now.

Everyone knows Garfield is a baddie, but they don’t want to admit it. The eyes say it all.

In the first panel, the cat on our right has fur coloration in what should be the empty space between their two hands. Am I supposed to believe this is some sort of magic fur conjuring spell? What a blunder.

All depends on the situation you’re in, though people generally end up needing to work all those hours to survive basically. If you have the privilege to work fewer hours and enjoy your life more, it makes perfect sense you’d want to do so. It is inherently an exploitative system, though it’s more than just the raw number of hours worked too. Personally, part time wasn’t much better than full time for me, because I’d just be scheduled all over the place to patch gaps for full-timers, so I never had any routine consistency. Regardless, I hope things work out for you if you get that position.

Yeah, that’s pretty much it. It’s easy to fall into the gamification of social media and push yourself in harmful ways. While this comic is exaggeration and obviously doesn’t reflect how every person who says this feels, it’s really just a way to have a dialogue about why someone apologizes for not doing some personal thing enough. It’s not like I’m “immune to propaganda” either here, as I’m also a people pleaser; it’s something I have to actively contend with because of my upbringing. Art is just one of those things I’ve managed to put my foot down over because of what it means to me.

As for the hobby to job thing, I feel a good life lesson would be to never go down that path if possible. You don’t get a hobby that is a job, you simply lose a hobby and gain a job. I know this world is disgusting and some may see this their best way to survive in capitalist hell, but that just makes the journey sadder. This is also why when I encounter hobbyists with ways to pay them, I just donate instead of commission. They already gave me joy with their expression, after all.

Yeah, it’s almost certainly an over exaggeration of what’s actually happening. More than anything I just wanted to dramatize how I read those comments, so I could spark discussion about how social media can make people feel like they have to do things, just because they’ve done them before. Take breaks, create when you want to, enjoy your hobbies.

Also, thanks! Don’t know when the next one will be, but I’ll be happy when I’m making it, and I’m grateful others like you are willing to experience it with me.

Perhaps we view the word “owe” differently, because by the sounds of it, you just want people to have empathy for other’s needs. In my view, sharing your self expression through art, and those who take the time to partake in that expression, are already engaged in a mutually positive experience together. When I used “owe,” I mean a position of entitlement. In the same way I cannot feel entitled to other’s attention, they should not be entitled to my expression. My expression is my freedom, and I will not sacrifice the small sliver of that I have.

Your point of doing well by others as you can is absolutely valid of course, and we all can be a part of that. Sharing emotions, stories, kind words, experiences, even a moment of time to listen. I suppose the only thing we likely differ on is how the word “owe” makes us feel. We’re all in this together, and I’d love if we all felt encouraged to spread positivity, without feeling awful because you feel what you do is not enough.

Welcome to furry_irl! I’m no cheetah, so you’ve got a little time to please make these changes:

1. Post titles need to be a word, followed by _irl (e.g. Speeding_irl). Please edit the post title.
2. Credit the artist in the title or post body. Someone kindly posted the artist (Cerberus) in a comment already, so that should be no sweat.

Thank you!

Eye floaters let’s go! Also don’t forget all the dots from white blood cells moving about in your eye. Vision sure is something.

I bet that this is just regular cartoon nudity. You don’t need those black bars at all, do you?

This must be how it feels to draw a conclusion…

Narrow down your options by flipping a coin; let lady luck decide your fate!
