Yes I have a job, I live with my parents and I have no bills but I still am not even close to affording something like a suit. I don’t get how people younger than me can do it no issue

Like wym you’re going to anthrocon? You’re 18, you live across the country from the convention, you recently spent $5k on shit yet you can still afford plane tickets, 3 days in a hotel, and VIP convention tickets? Make it make sense, anyways I’m just jealous clearly

i live in dorms and 90% of my college is paid for by scholarships and whatnot so i can usually get away with spending a lot of money on stupid shit 😭 im trying to enjoy that now before i have to go off and adult more and get a career tbh lol

That’s so real, I drive an absolute shitbox so I have to save up for a new car. I want my own place but I also enjoy making money with little worry. I also just joined the community so I can’t really complain when I have never had interest in buying furry accessories until now

That’s so awesome though, you guys will have a blast forsure. I live in the Midwest so the closest convention to me is 7-8 hours away and I have NO local furry friends and I have NO idea how to find them, I downloaded barq! But so far it just seems like a dating app that nobody uses

honestly the best way of making furry friends is making them at ur uni, even if there isn't a club start one even if it's unofficial and plan events and all that. i joined mine and made tons of friends, also had a bit more success on bark but that's probably because i go to uni in south florida LOL

I’d love to join something like that but I try to keep myself anonymous when joining groups like that, and to start my own group at a uni where most of my old high school classmates go is kinda difficult, especially cuz I commute to school. I think I’m just in a simply bad state to find friends like that

honestly just create a discord server or something, under an anonymous profile and post up posters around ur uni with a qr code to it lol people will join

I could do that, it’s a pretty accepting uni but I guarantee if I put one of those up I’d get more rednecks coming in to troll than actual furries lol, would be a fun side project tho :)

Ur so smart for this lol, I’ll put that into the journal. That would probably be more effective than barq considering all I see on that app is 40 year olds that are only in it for the fetish, always seem to be mad rich too
