Furry

I'm not even ashamed now, I'm a furry. Don't like it? Call 1-800-IMA-JERK.

As of 2024-09-08, my fursona is Mosfet.

Anthropomorphic cat with dark blue fur. He is wearing a pink T-shirt
with a MOSFET symbol, a pair of grey pants with rainbow stripes, and black
shoes. The text reads: 2024-09-02 rev. 2 F. catus he/it fkfd.me. There are
three icons: fish, music, heart.

Why

Look. I use a kernel with an (unofficial) furry mascot. I use a DE with a furry mascot. I listen to a band with a furry mascot. Do I really need to keep going?

In 2022 I wrote a post titled I Respect Furries, which may be an origin story.
