The closest furries ever came to mainstream acceptance was when audiences watched Beauty & the Beast (1991) and collectively went "hmm. bad. turn him back." when the human prince appeared

I’m curious as to where you all stand

Reblog for demographics!

Has either union called for a boycott? Because boycotting can disrupt their plans and make negotiations harder unless they’re actively asking for one. I’m boycotting reality TV (which every studio is going to be pushing because it’s the only content they can make cheaply and without writers or professional actors) but nothing else unless we are asked to.

This is correct. If anything, I want the execs to be terrified because the consumers are demanding more from them and they have nothing in their reserves to sell and no way of making anything else to sell.

Also "new" content is going to keep coming out for a while because it's already been written and acted and edited. (I'd actually expect a lot of bad-but-finished movies that would normally never be released to get released once they start running out of the good stuff) There is less than no point to boycott anything right now.

1) Nobody in the unions has called for a boycott.

2) Boycotting takes away the residuals/initial payout due to the actors and writers right when they aren’t working.

3) Boycotting let’s the studios say “See? You aren’t valuable; nobody wants your labor” which is precisely the opposite of the message to be sent.

Straight from WGA negotiating committee member Adam Conover (Adam Ruins Everything):

[image ID: tweet from Adam Conover @/adamconover that says, "Neither the WGA or SAG-AFTRA is calling for a consumer boycott right now. If you want to support the strike, we're asking folks to: 1) Boost our message on social media 2) Donate to the Entertainment Community Fund, which supports affected workers" then a link to the Entertainment Community Fund". end ID]

Please reblog with the added information and don't confuse strike support for boycotting. The unions have not officially asked for a boycott and confusing their strategy right now could harm the strike.

Men should take more lewds.

Not dick pics. There are so many beautiful parts of the human body that aren't genitals. Legs, butts, chest, arms, tummies, hips, shoulders...there's so much to feel sensual about!

Not even to send to anyone, I want men to just take photos for themselves. Just because it's validating. Just because they thought they looked good that day. To let their masculinity be something other than fragile. I want to see more men feeling sexy, striking a pose, and feeling good about their bodies in all the ways they've been robbed of.

Wow this is quickly becoming my biggest post. So many men have been reblogging, messaging, commenting or leaving notes in the tags about how much they needed this or how awful they've felt about their bodies. Or just, didn't realize they're allowed to feel like this.

Kings. My heart breaks for you. It's fucking hard to learn how to love your body, and I'm so, so, so proud of you for trying.

When I was little, my mom told me that throwing your chewing gum out the car window was the good and moral thing to do because it patched up people's flat tires for them, and to this day, I think it's one of the funniest lies anyone's ever told a child for no reason.

i love saying i will be “without access” to email. it’s a lie. i am fully capable of accessing my emails. i simply will not be.

having access to email is a state of mind, one I do not want
