ugh i'm sorry, this is such a frustrating problem!!

If being called "weird" is the thing you're most worried about, you need to get some bigger problems.

I can't believe people are literally like "the trans woman was already getting harassed a bunch, therefore it was totally fine for people to throw more fuel on the fire at that point."

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 06/01/2026
Because Parker was already getting harassed at that point. What the hell did Ana think was going to happen by saying "actually, here's another reason why I think Parker is evil for this incredibly benign tweet."

I'm not talking about you directly. I'm talking about people like Ana who decided to throw their friends and allies under the bus in order to make extremely stretched takes. As I said in my original post, Ana simply could have not commented on it, or at least not blamed Parker in doing so.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 06/01/2026
And there was no way of doing that without throwing Parker under the bus in the process?

it becomes an issue for birthday parties and such, from my experience.

What does her being a sex worker have to do with anything? This is the problem – people making absolutely absurd jumps in logic to try to justify the harassment. "Parker mildly joking about Isabelle w/ boobs is the same thing as fascists banning queer games." Get a grip. Pick your battles. Geez.

Like it just drove more people to harass Parker, and in turn more people to harass Ana, because by that point everyone had taken "sides." There was no good outcome there.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 06/01/2026
Right, that's my point. Ana jumping in with her opinion that was half-criticizing Parker and half-defending her didn't help anything. It just further escalated the situation for everyone and made everything worse.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 06/01/2026
I think Parker herself questioned it multiple times and never got a straight answer. So as of yet, I don't know that there's anything to actually indicate that that was the case.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 06/01/2026
She could have just... not said anything, though. Or at least not fed more fuel to the fire. It only further contributed to the harassment of Parker.

do we actually know if the person who made the mod was trans? I see that keep getting said but have yet to see any proof of it.

I do, unfortunately, think it's quite funny that the term "dogpile" keeps getting thrown around in the discourse about the cartoon dog boobs incident

I think you have a very different relationship to how you use your headphones than other people do then lol

What happens when you want to use those headphones for a different input, like a laptop?

I'm always saying this, I've watched the space evolve over the past decade and it's been the result of deliberate choices, some of which were not easy or popular at the time. You can foster diversity and inclusion in your spaces. It works.

I'm tempted to check the app store and try to figure out which specific apps lol But I'd guess red and yellow are probably associated with both, so it could be any of them

FWIW I checked his videos from the past few months and none of them list Jeremy D as the scriptwriter. But who knows, maybe he removed other mentions of him.

Suspiciously nondescript "Jeremy D" Not even confident enough to list his last name, apparently.

A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

Again, I'm not referring to you specifically. But just the furry community as a whole. If there's not a movement to excise these types of people from the community and take a stand that it's not OK, then it seems like it's only going to get worse for everyone. Same goes for the infamous Nazi furs.
010
Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
I just think this entire situation has done more harm than good for the perception and reputation of furries as a whole, and it has nothing to do with Parker's original post and everything to do with the disproportionate response to it.
021
Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
General ignorant statements about furries as a whole are bad, yes, but repeated and direct harassment of a trans woman for an extremely mild post is inexcusable.
010
Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
I'm well aware of the plight of furries in general. But Parker's post was extremely mild and the response was insanely disproportionate. No amount of "we're sensitive" excuses the shit people were saying about her, especially with her being a fellow queer person.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
Not saying that you alone have to be the arbiter of the entire furry community. But it's similar to the Nazi bar analogy. The community can't say "furries are not deviant pedophiles" while simultaneously allowing takes like this – egregiously worse than Parker's post – to go uncontested.
010
Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
Okay but when there are furries who are saying that shit like this is OK, you don't think it's your responsibility to say "hey actually, that's not okay, and you shouldn't be representing us that way"? Because when people see this type of shit, they're going to associate it with furries in general.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
I'm referring to Bruno saying it was a "predictable consequence" I don't think that anyone could have predicted that such a relatively benign post would have resulted in all this. Things devolve in innumerable ways on the internet; you cannot predict all the ways in which the discourse will lead.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
If people like this are saying "CP is fine actually, as long as it's not IRL" then yeah I'm gonna call them a weirdo deviant pedophile. Has nothing to do with them being a furry and everything to do with them being a weirdo deviant pedophile.
240
Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
I don't think that just because something devolved in a certain way that you can blame the person who made the original post. I'm 1000% more angry at the insane vitriol directed at Parker than anything she directly said. Be weird. Be kinky. Be furry. I don't care. But stop being psychos about it.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
No? I'm talking about the psychos who were relentlessly harassing her over an extremely mild post. I'm a nerdy competitive video game player. I have no problem with furries in general lol.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
*this shit* is pretty gross to see. I do legitimately think you're sick in the head if you think this shit is okay.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
And the outcome is now that Parker has been harassed off this website by a bunch of psychos who can't take some extremely mild ribbing. Great job, everyone!!
140
Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
And now Parker has deactivated while people who were harassing her are advocating that CP is fine as long as it's drawn and that you're a Nazi sympathizer if you raise an eyebrow at someone else's kink. Absurd. People need to get a grip.
030
Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
Saying "why though?" is in no way giving people "permission to go hog wild in terms of making fun of furries." That's absurd.

Blåhaj Blast @blahajblastoise.bsky.social · 05/01/2026
The post already had millions of views on the other website where it was originally posted before she even reposted it here. You're saying that her followers from Bsky went to the trouble of going over to the Nazi site (where many of them don't have accounts anymore) to harass the OP? lol

We have published the following update to our article following an email response from the New York Times. Trans News Network has a policy against platforming bigotry. As such, we have declined to publish the Times' statement which included blatant transphobia.
Editors' Note, 1/4/26:

A spokesperson from The New York Times emailed Trans News Network the Sunday after publication, disputing various parts of the interview. We reject their disputes as unsubstantiated, nitpicking or willful misreads. We have added minor clarifications at two points in the interview alongside the transcript, which remains as published. We stand by our reporting of the interview with Sweeney, former editor and 11-year veteran of the Times. 

The Times also provided TNN a statement responding to the interview, which we have declined to publish due to its inclusion of overt transphobia (such as framing the existence of trans people as “fiercely contested medical and legal debates”). Even in their PR, it seems that the Times can't stop denigrating our lives and communities.

We do not have an obligation to publish damage control on the behalf of a news outlet undergoing a legitimacy crisis because of their own actions.

furries *are* weirdos. so are lots of other people for lots of other reasons, including myself. it's fine, just stop being so annoying about it. if "weirdo" is too far for you, you really need an animal with a stronger spine as your fursona.
