Not sure exactly what happened preceding this, but pibbleking's having a meltdown over 'not deserving to be trans' and is publicizing it as per usual with her drama.

I don't follow her so I missed what happened, idk if anyone else knows? Looks like somebody came at her for being comfortable in her skin or something based on previous tweets.

Best guess is someone told her to be trans you need Dysphoria, something she doesn't have. It looks like she made some tweet about her experience as being a 'trans man' and actual trans people called her out as well as other people because she's not trans she's a masculine non binary person. She also made a joke that some found transphobic. Some former friends blocked her and now she's throwing up a pity fest.
 
I do seriously wonder sometimes what the fuck is with this "MY EXISTENCE IS INCORRECT, I HAVE BEEN CHEATED BY CRUEL FATE AND REALITY" crap that has become so pervasive everywhere

It's like a legit existential crisis where they can't fucking deal with not getting four aces in the hand they were dealt because they think "IF ONLY I WERE THIS PERFECT IMAGE OF WHAT I THINK I SHOULD BE I WOULD BE HAPPY AND SUCCESSFUL!" and from that follows "ALL THOSE OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE HAPPY AND SUCCESSFUL ARE CHEATING AND THIS IS UNFAIR!"

What the actual fuck.
 
Oh my god anyone who does the "my fursona is the REAL ME hidden beneath my hyoomun skin!" is batshit and might well be otherkin tbh

If you're not just in it to goof around and have fun with a patently absurd concept, you're in it for the wrong reasons lmao
Even without the people who think they’re their fursona, a majority of fursonas exist solely to serve as a fursuit that will stand out or at minimum won’t be mistaken for some other fursuit. That’s why every fucking furry now has pastel colors and weird markings and symbols and shit, or maybe just some accessory like a bandana or whatever the fuck in the event that someone skimped out by buying a generic fursuit. Every convention photo is a sea of people struggling to look unique and attention-worthy, with the result that no one fucking is.

It gets hilarious the longer you think about it, really. Just think about all the people you've ever seen, met, known of who wouldn't be considered especially noteworthy in physical appearance... by this strand of thought they're all just nobodies, nothings without any personality because that all resides in the realm of physical appearance according to these idiots

Personality? What's that lmao. If you can't SEE it, it doesn't EXIST! Like, what kind of hilariously shallow shit is this? I can't be the only one who realizes what a fucking dead end this line of reasoning is, but to be fair it's something I see outside the fandom too in spades - "you are your branded clothing/car/jewelry/etc. and nothing more, you have no personality unless it's something that can be commodified and made externally visible"

Holy everloving shit I want off the consoomer ride. This explains so much shit I've encountered over the years and I can't say I'm particularly happy about having this realization over and over. Something is fucking WRONG here.

Holy shit are you okay?

It’s a fine and good thing to find meaning in your life that doesn’t depend on how completely inconsequential fucking strangers regard you. Find security in who you are; don’t find it in others’ attention. You, an anonymous internet bird gossiping about weirdos with other anonymous internet birds who never fucking call any fucking attention to themselves nor to their own fucking lives, should understand this. Live and enjoy life and make peace with yourself. That’ll make you happier than fifteen million internet stickers.

I seriously feel like I'm on crazy pills when I consider the implications. Your identity, your personality is not what you are to these people - it's what you buy, what you wear, what you front. That is just so insanely backwards (like cart-before-horse backwards) that it's like running into a group of people who fervently swear gravity makes things fall upwards. That's how insane this looks to me. It's something I've been seeing in a lot of places, to be fair, and for a while now. It's alarming on a very deep, psychological level, like watching people be consumed by some sort of nightmarish creature that has attached itself to their brainstem a la a Body Snatchers movie, and somehow you're the only one that seems to see it.

If your identity can be sold to you, can be commodified, it can also be stolen/rescinded and stripped away... and then what do you have? I'd tell you to think about that for a moment but frankly I'm upset enough by the implications therein that I don't know that I'd wish that on anyone else.

you know, as much as i kinda agree with you on this, the rest of your posts are starting to look like a "lol calm down" moment to be quite honest with you. it's not really that deep.
 
You know what's funny about furries trying to look unique? They could go a long way with a "plain" looking character if they wore clothes. But it's furries, so they'll be nude 99% of the time, anyway. So that idea clearly isn't going to fly.

Anyway, furries have the same problem webbs do when it comes to creating unique OCs, only worse. With anime/manga you can always change the depth of the jaw, the curve of the eyes and the eyebrows, the height of the nose, the height of the mouth, the hair... there are a lot of dials you can turn to create a character when you're a weeb. They're still going to look fairly samey because most artists can't really do very varied face shapes. The Only Six Faces trope exists for a reason, after all.

Furries have it way worse, because most artists only have six faces alright. Only instead of variants on human faces, they have their Dog/Wolf face, their Cat face, their Big Cat face, their Bear face, their Fox face, and their Dragon/Lizard face. Occasionally one or two extras like horses or birds, if that's their thing. If they've put real effort into it, these faces will have female and male variants. But that's it. So while us as humans have thousands upon thousands of different physiognomic variants that make every one of us unique within our ethnic group (and look all the same to an outsider), furries don't. And since artists never pay attention to their references, even if they insist their wolf has, say, a broader muzzle and a heavier brow than most, most artists will just draw the same Balto-lookalike and call it a day.

because they are humans.
Ironically, they insist they are dragons.

That’s the problem, instead of going for an ugly/funny creature like a blob fish, spider crab, kiwi bird, mata mata turtle or some other goofy looking animal so they can stand out, they always go for whichever one has mass sex appeal/most popular in the fandom. If they can’t get a hard on to the animal in question, they won’t draw it, simple as that.

I wanna know so bad what the joke was that some of her own friends were upset about it. Most of the people she seems buddy-buddy with are all very 'trans can be whatever you want it to be' types so I'm surprised to read that, although she also is so damn overdramatic it wouldn't shock me if this was blown up a lot from what actually happened.

It really doesn't take much with these people. Makes you wonder if the offense is just a convenient contrivance.

If you really want to make them squirm try telling them that putting a nose ring and hat on a Digimon doesn't make it an OC unless they have the legal rights to the character itself. Then when they argue refer them to the guy who got served a C&D by Nintendo for selling porn of their Pokemon "OC"s.

Whatever it was, if it gets her out of the gendercult before she starts chopping bodyparts off, it was for the better.

She's still going to be up to her tits in woke shit, but at least she's still going to have tits.

Kuroodod was selling giant asses with Pokemon attached to them more than he was actually selling Pokemon porn, and he pivoted very quickly to selling giant asses with non-copyrighted animals attached to them instead.

That's the funniest shit to me, The fact he made a comic about eevee's having sex for dozens of pages, and having the audacity to try to sell it.

True, but given how much her friends are now licking her asshole about how the people claiming there is criteria to being transgender are Wrong and Mean, I'm willing to bet she's back to being a super manly man who wants to flash his tits on twitter within the week.

EDIT: profile literally already says he/they and she's retweeting shit about 'gender euphoria' lmfao

She needs to go to Something Awful where the troons will assure her that the time she accidentally left the toilet seat up after scrubbing the bowl is dysphoria because only men ever do that. I’ve heard similar retardation from those people when they’re trying to recruit more troons. “Man” who cried once at a movie -> Better start hormones.

Ah, well. At least that's given her tits a few hours' stay of excution. Hopefully she'll be one of those low-effort ones who turns right back into a girl when she has to go visit the grandparents.
