  • You are transformed into an animal of your choice, and must send a message to the president in order to turn back. wdyd?

    Jump

  • Waiting for Kolanaki and the rest of the furries to show up...

  • What is some of your favorite background or thinking music?

    Jump

  • Whatever comes up from the search term "lofi house". Long compilations of good, uncomplicated, ethereal-sounding music that let me go on for hours without having to interact with the player. EATEOT is surprisingly good for this too, especially if you need your mood to do a 180° really fast.

  • Did the year zero never exist ?

    Jump

  • Years are ordinal numbers, the kind of number that tells you which place you finished in a race, and as such cannot have zeroes or negatives. You're living in the 2,024th year since the instant that began the Common Era. "0th" and "-1st" are not valid expressions for years for the same reason that you can't place 0th in the Olympics

  • How many accounts do you have?

    Jump

  • Just this one. I don't want to juggle more passwords than are really necessary, and I'm not too worried at the idea of others scrolling down my profile and seeing that I'm a furry, a TF fan, and sometimes an outwardly sexual person when the situation allows it.

  • How might a public flogging of an authoritarian ruler in 2024 impact the world?

    Jump

  • Besides the immediate threat of mass rioting and an armed resistance no matter who you're flogging, public torture as entertainment is a very, very bad precedent to set, and only serves to build up a culture of antipathy. Imagine how the wider justice system would change once that's normalized.

  • How did you get your username?

    Jump

  • Trimmed down version of my 'sona's full name "lythlphene" which I came up with kinda randomly in a weird creative mood early in the morning, it's intended to mean something like "earthy creature". I decided that I shouldn't change or tweak it afterwards since I would have just kept overthinking it and never been satisfied

  • Removed Locked

    My friend is in-denial about being transgender, what can I do to help break her egg

    Jump

  • Ex-conservative here, this reeks of an extremely angry person hoping to prove something about social contagion and "trans people want to bring femaleness back to 50's stereotypes", and minus the comedy at the end of the first paragraph this is roughly how I would have written it about 10 years ago if I'd had the guts to lie to hundreds of people. Read their post and comment history (before they delete their account) for other signs like "I experienced misogyny and it gave me awesome gender euphoria"

  • What are some of the changes you would expect in a furry reality?

    Jump

  • A struggle against prejudice and xenophobia on a much greater level than humans have with only one species, debates on whether it's ethical for a couple to produce an anthro mule or other infertile hybrid, any modern mixed-species regions would need a very complex design to accommodate everyone's different biological needs even if all the anthros are nearly the same size, the study of evolution would be a lot of fun because a diverse anthro world requires many distinct intelligent species to emerge very close in time to one another, endless other worldbuilding opportunities

  • What are your experiences with the Mandela Effect?

    Jump

  • I'm contacting you from an alternate timeline to tell you that I'm still angry

  • No, and for my one-minute abridged defense:

    • Gen 1-2 definitely didn't happen and were written by two different groups with different religious views using two different creator-god names
    • Noah's Ark definitely didn't happen, and the story repeats itself all the time because it crushes together the Yahwist's and Elohist's writing in a manner especially suggestive of natural human authorship
    • New Testament claims that the human lineage is as young as is reported in Gen 2 (Luk 3:38) and has Jesus - presumably the same entity as God - suggest multiple times in two gospels that the great flood was a real event

    That's about enough to deconvert already, and it keeps getting worse the deeper you take things

  • I'm at a roulette table. I only bet on red. When I lose I triple my bet, when I win I restart. Is this a roulette strategy?

    Jump

  • Congratulations, you've invented the Martingale betting system and are well on your way to becoming an adept probability theorist

    The short answer is that casinos account for this by changing the profit returns and the odds of making a profit at all so that catastrophic losses are much more likely

    What are the pros and cons of totalitarianism?

    Jump

  • pros: exceedingly small chance that the one decision-maker and everyone who succeeds them are correct about everything all the time and we reach utopia

    cons: likely genocide

  • The CEO of PROTON answers YOUR questions! Drive, Linux support, Photos, features, and a lot more!

    Jump

  • In case you didn't know, you can turn off promotional emails in Settings -> Dashboard -> Email Subscriptions or by adding a mail filter to push them all into an advertisement folder, and the other ads can be mitigated by hitting "don't show this offer again" on each one

  • why do people like cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, and sugar and gluten??

    Jump

  • sarcasm was not clear, I bought a kilo of heroin after reading your first comment and now I don't know what to do with it. I'm using it as a mousepad now

    Some Shiny artists

    Jump

  • These are some of my favorites that you haven't listed. I pretty much only browse TF content

    Rakisha/Tanraak does some of the best lighting and musculature work I know of, and prefers to define shapes and contours just through how they distort the shine on top of solid colors. Also a lot of cybernetics. Masterful work all around and the kind of artist I aspire to be.

    Redflare500 does a lot of shiny clothing and inanimate TFs. It's often creepy and uncanny but just enough to add to the excitement IMO.

    Helixjack/Shinyhelix does a ton of goo content and is one of my older favorites. Over the last decade their art style has changed from being near Fox0808 to near Redflare.

    Rhaenjarr is less on the TF side, more often does creatures that were shiny to begin with. When goo shows up it's much more viscous and weighty than most other artists' styles, and with more diffuse reflections like the material is closer to silicone. Very good with backgrounds and scene composition. Makes me wish I had more $ for commissions

  • what if a human being replaced all drinkable liquids with water??

    Jump

  • check op's profile, pretty sure these posts are just meant to be confounding

  • How come nobody ever DMs me?

    Jump

  • you don't have one of those DM_ME_(thing) usernames

  • tbh at this point being a Linux user is a Lemmy meme

  • Why would I want to use the multi-desktop functionality in Windows 11?

    Jump

  • Nitpick: the proper term is "virtual desktop" or "workspace", as "desktop environment" is already a common term for the software composing the entire user interface.

    I enjoy using this feature on any operating system since it lets me quickly scan through and declutter open windows, and place categories of windows in their own workspaces. I might have only productivity windows on one, and leisure and socials on another. It's especially effective if you learn the keyboard shortcuts for navigating inside and between workspaces. All this improves my productivity and keeps distractions away.
