-walking past our local library's New Books shelf- "Wow, the woman on that cover really reminds me of that cool "Handy Ma'am" TikToker, she's even holding a drill." "Wait." -looks again- "She wrote a book?!" "Oh that is awesome."

⚠NONHUMAN UNITY ZINE INTEREST COLLECTION (PROJECT NUZ)⚠
We are working on making a therian & otherkin art collective with the intention of producing a recurring zine including therian information, literature, poetry, music, art and more! RTs appreciated!https://t.co/l5GiwXvUVD
Not only is Chaya Raichik unqualified to serve on the Library Media Advisory Committee, but she is also disqualified.
According to the State Department of Education’s rule for membership on advisory councils 210:10-1-11 (pg. 46), “Membership of such councils shall be representative of the people to be served.”
Is she a librarian? No.
Does she have a professional education background? No.
Does she have kids in Oklahoma schools? No.
Does she even live in Oklahoma? No.
How is this “representative of the people to be served?” It’s not.

Also, Camp Damascus is a good book and you should read it (after reading the summary to discern if it's something you can stomach because it is a pretty heavy topic and it is a horror book).
A copy of one of Chuck Tingle's books (Camp Damascus) arrived at the library I work at today. I had to explain to my coworker who Tingle was... and why I was laughing and so amused so much. Good times.
*super excited noises and hand movement*
The two pride flag heraldry pins came in today!
Big thank-you for their creation to @Royarach
(They are so shiny, this photo does not do them justice!)
@Misha_B_Barkin If you're looking for academic info for your project, @furscience has written several articles that touch on the overlap & differences. They also released a free ebook which also has data on therians on the fandom. If you are looking before such kind of info.
NGL the conservative strawman about kids identifying as Cats makes me feel weird. People instantly say "NOBODY THINKS THEYRE AND ANIMAL" and I'm nervoussly like "uhhhhhh I do"
We do this. Some of us more than others, but it's a very common thing for us. In fact, we have system members who only do this rather than front. We call it projecting.
Systems: I need to know if this is a relatable experience. Do you ever visualize other system members outside of headspace, like irl? Not in a visual hallucination kind of way, but like a minds eye projection kind of way? Does that even make sense?
Elon Musk started pride month by promoting the transphobic movie "What Is A Woman?" which included misinformation about furries & an interview with an ex-therian to try & ridicule trans identities. Read more about it & of safer alternatives to Twitter on: https://t.co/ZmLK4rjhO0

The new discourse on the block is apparently about polyamorous folks and whether we're queer or not, and... Look man, I was there when they said nonbinary wasn't queer, when they said bisexual wasn't queer, when they said asexual wasn't queer. Same shitty song and dance, huh.
