Furry Fandom and Drama General

There was a time in psychology, back when homosexuality was still being researched as a mental illness, where the running theory was that a certain kind of lingering fixation from an earlier developmental stage, together with the archetypical subconscious desire to recreate past traumas, would lead to a kind of maladjusted sexuality that grinds away at the patient's mental health by accumulation of "micro traumas" through exactly this kind of behavior. Very revealing meme.
Today obviously homosexuality is not considered a mental health issue anymore, which is 100% because of social pressure and 0% because there was anything that invalidated prior research.
 
I did a little bit of digging on Twitter and found a few tiny things on FaggotDeer/Ethan by going through old tweets that mentioned him. As a reminder for the furries lurking in this thread, this information is here for informative reasons only. I do not condone going out of your way to contact any of these people. Since I don't expect anyone to take this advice, I've elected to crop their names out of these screenshots, but it's uncensored in the links.

Anyways, I was able to track down the source of Ethan's Twitter and Discord icon to this Twitter artist, who claims they drew it as a gift for him in June 2024. Unfortunately, I feel like the icon might be a dead end. I was hoping that the artist might have posted it elsewhere and linked to another of Ethan's accounts, but they seem to only be active on Twitter and Instagram. I also ran the image through FuzzySearch (a reverse image search tool for furry art), but I got no results.

Another user who makes 3D models of cars also completed a commission request for Ethan in April 2024. Some random furry ween also decided to tag the modeler after Ethan was arrested, and they responded:

Unrelated, but this might be a more insane take than the guy who screamed "fuck cops". Not sure if this is bait of if the guy really is this retarded, but I think he should kill himself either way. The driver of the van that was hit was not a 15-year-old, but an adult male who was about 40.

I gave it a shot myself too. I can't really find much except everyones least favorite web "archive" has over 100 pages of his tweets archived. Too much shit to go through and it is so hard to view it all. I couldn't find anything interesting but if anyone else wants to give it a shot here. It would be great if I could lookup by site and keyword since these are all JSON files but the waycucked machine has terrible functionality. Most of his content seems to just be shitty memes.

Thank you for that. I always forget that Archive catches tweets. I took the time to go through the last 200 tweets of his that were archived. I'm not going to go through all of them, but his tweets from the last two weeks before the crash paint a very concerning picture. There's an alarming number of tweets devoted to alcohol, depression, questionable driving, and mentioning that he drives a Dodge Caravan (the same vehicle mentioned in the news article as being responsible for the accident).

I'm going to put these in chronological order: First off, here are some notable tweets from May 8-11:

This batch covers tweets from May 11-15

This was his final tweet (or at least the last one that was archived in time), made roughly 20 hours before the car crash. Hopefully, he gets lots of "cuddles" in prison.

Waste of oxygen and resources.
And instead of being a man and seek professional help he decided to be a faggot and make twitter a hug box… another example of just how toxic twitter has made society AND social media in general. Without social media or even twitter this alcoholic faggot would have offed himself
 
How prevalent are eating disorders within the Furry Fandom?

When browsing through Twitter and Bluesky I keep seeing an over abundant amount of very skinny Furries, which leads me to ask how prevalent is Anorexia, Bulimia, and Obesity within the Furry Fandom? Are many Furries purposely not eating enough just to try and look petite? I thought perhaps the high price of groceries might be a reason, but these same curries seem to be able to afford numerous commissions of artwork of their Fursona, so that cannot be the case.. Then you have just as many Furries who sit at their computers, snacking all day, without getting any exercise. Do many Furries not worry about their health? Furries seem to be on the extreme end of a healthy lifestyle, being either extremely skinny or enormously overweight.

Actual reply
a lot of the Fandom is very insecure outside their fursonas, this is well known. People with eating disorders often have a lot of body insecurities as well. Talking objectively without the debate or drama, the Fandom is often seen as an escape from things like that. As for not worrying about their health, a majority of most active furries at the moment are early-late gen-z, who are riddled with many issues for numerous reasons which includes not carrying about physical health, be it from struggling with depression or some fetish
 
One thing that's well documented is that Social Media platforms (especially TikTok) tend to display a lot of content promoting Eating Disorders, including how to become deathly thin via laxatives, weight loss injections, vomiting etc. As Furries are terminally online, and all parts of their lifestyle is over-sexualised, I don't think its any surprise the amount of dangerously underweight furries claiming to be "femboys" and such.
