The Joke: welcome to Mastodon, here's your fursuit and your copy of Das Kapital
Reality: welcome to Mastodon, here's your six alt fursonas, a copy of the Anarchist's Cookbook, an eight-week course on the programming language of your choice, a tarot deck, some brand spanking new hormones, and a complex geometric sigil you should memorize that will turn into a neural counter-virus so that when the Singularity finally hits we can make sure The Straights don't claim it for themselves
Welcome to Mastodon, here's your complimentary fursuit, a copy of Das Kapital, the Communist Manifesto, the Anarchist's Cookbook, then an eight-week course on the programming language of your choice, a tarot deck, pineapple, bag of oats, pair of jorts, and a complex geometric sigil that will be useful sometime.
@zyabin101 a pair of running shoes, a globe, a glow-in-the-dark flashlight, an antique diving helmet, entirely too much confetti, a handgun with the trigger melted off, a bottle of spicy horseradish mustard, a selection of drugstore eyeshadows, a vinyl Switched-On Bach LP...
@irisjaycomics Convert New Visitor after you finish reading this card.
@irisjaycomics SCREAMS
@irisjaycomics I think I saw a furry walking around in the city today but it might have just been a really really warm hat that looked a bit wolfy
@irisjaycomics oh god what hormones does that mean I get now? Is pickles a hormone?
@irisjaycomics @neither And also a pineapple. 🍍
@irisjaycomics
Wait I only have 4 fursonas did I miss the memo
@PlanetaryKnight @irisjaycomics do any of them have multiple heads? that can mess up the allocation, put in a ticket with your server afmjn, they'll route it.
@irisjaycomics This is so accurate ahaha
@irisjaycomics I'll take the programming course and the sigil pls
@irisjaycomics For real I don't want Silicon Valley doing the Singularity (or rather, robot bodies and VR) because I feel they'll White Guy all over it.
@woozle @Taylor these are EXACTLY MY FEARS as well. a singularity in the hands of the wealthy elite isn't a singularity at all, it's just a bunch of douches exerting their privilege to get a leg up on us peasants. believe me, i want a robot body like i want to breathe but it's gotta be heavily socialized or no fucking dice
@irisjaycomics @woozle I want my robot body to be Very Furry, and I don't think SV startups will be designing their transhumanism with that in mind. Or trans people. Or disabled people.
We are friends now. ^.^
@irisjaycomics it certainly feels odd being cis here sometimes ahaha.
@irisjaycomics i think my new hormones got lost somewhere along the way. Can't wait for that slip up to be fixed.
@irisjaycomics the sigil is the "Cool S"
@irisjaycomics hear, hear!
