transspecies creatures

Furries. Just call them furries.

No. Some furries might also be transspecies but they are two entirely different things.

[โ€“] ameancow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There are furries, and there are furries who take things too far.

You have no idea what you are talking about. Please don't comment again until you've actually done some research.

lol I know enough that i stopped doing commissions for furries over a decade ago because there were so many who took it too far and then got way too serious like this ^

edit after regretting checking bio: really guys, you can roleplay as colony organisms and refrigerators and small planets and whatever else all you want, at least try to sound like you're having fun doing it. Have some self awareness and make your alternative identity a source of joy for yourself and others and you will get a lot more acceptance.
