I'm a fox. I don't know entirely what it means, but it's real.

What is postfurry? At the very core, it's a way of approaching what identity means.

Furry has been all about answering the question "what if people can also be animals?"

Postfurry says "okay, we can go even further than that. What if we claim authorial control over every aspect of identity? We're animal-people sure, but that's only a starting point. If the poststructuralists are right and all meaning is negotiable, let's go exploring and write some meanings of our own."

🎵 I'm a vulpine, baby
So why don't you yiff me 🎵

Still thinking about @masklayer 's post from months ago:

"what the fuck is a Furry, and why is it me."

Overheard: "I'm trying to come up with a test that doesn't involve me holding a bottle of lube over an active tesla coil."

Also time is a fuck.

This is true of oral storytelling in general, too.

I think a lot about how vaporous the narrative of tabletop games are. They sort of... float above the table, shared, but evaporate as soon as the players stop living in that space.

So a thing I think about is how fluid the concept of "what happened" in a tabletop RPG can be.

Retcon is often embraced. And not just for narrative reasons, but also "hey we can't quite remember what went down but we think it was x, so we're calling x true now".

I think a lot about how in a late-game episode of TAZ Balance, the creators recorded an episode.... then a day later realized they felt really gross about the key decision, went back, and re-recorded the ending. And decided to let the original version never see the light of day.

You ever sometimes just do the phone compass calibration gesture as an idle animation?
