I think he understands the problem considering he mentioned his 200k income at the start of the post.
Fur suits are expensive so hes the perfect money source :D

Unlike those industrial engineer peasants.
Well you see American manufacturing keeps getting hamstrung by an orange dipshit who thinks he's saving it
He's not trying to save it. He's simply creating market fluctuations and buying the dip. He creates conditions that cause investors to worry and stock prices to fall, then he buys when the prices are low and finally he announces that the tariffs are being postponed for 90+ days (that is, into the next financial quarter). Stock prices start to rise again and eventually they return to where they started, like it never happened.
In the meantime, people are losing jobs and their houses, but that's a small price to pay to make him and his inner circle wealthier.

Maybe they want to get a spiderman style radioactive dog bite to turn into their ideal puppy form.
Unironically yes. Lots of variation in pay and prestige among different engineering disciplines. Manufacturing engineers are not typically very well paid from what I’ve seen.
That went directly over my head. Apparently I’m out of touch. Haven’t dated in many years.
Yeah, same. I didn’t realize being a furry was so expensive.
Yeah average fursuit costs around as much as a small car or motorbike. However, unlike a car, you can buy it one part at a time.

Johnny Cash says otherwise lol
A sugar buck?
Is Lemmy a furry?
I think there's a large population only because this is inherently niche. And niche things attract niche interest groups in larger quantities.
TLDR FUR FREAK GALORE

Atleast from my own experience there is alot of it here. For some reason, top comments about sexual restriction-related posts on Lemmy tend towards the fear of bans coming for furries. Make of that what you will.
Any negative comments about their weirdness will not be met kindly here.

How does he know who's is a furry and who isn't at a party? Are they always dressed up?
because he is at a furry party. they are all dressed up. him too.
In my limited experience, they're pretty up front with it even when they're not wearing a fursuit or furry merch.
In a million years, I never would have guessed that this was an issue.
That's because you're not a nuclear engineer.
I think I’ve only ever met 2 furries in my entire life. I don’t know where this person is that furries are so common. Then again, I’m not a nuclear engineer. Maybe radiation attracts furries?

Idk maybe he’s at a furry convention?
This is one of those things that might not always be immediately obvious if you’re not plugged into that specific community.
I’ve never met a furry either. But completely by chance, I found out that my city of 160.000 people has a group who does regular furry walks. Basically, they’ll do a walk and meet the public once a month. I had no freaking clue we had that here. It wasn’t a thing I was looking for and never ran into. It was completely by chance that I read an article about it.
So uh, furries are probably closer than you think is my point 😀
He's obviously in his furry suit.
Definitely a Seattle issue. We have a queer furry cidery—the first one in the US!
A building turning furries into cider? And people are happy about this?! I mean, we in he US will give miles of leeway to anyone if they check one “minority” box.

He should tell them he is a cyber security chad expert. That will stop them!
Furries are all cyber security engineers so start each conversation with your favorite windows update so far.
"An nuclear engineer"? That's suspicious grammar for a nuclear engineer.
I was a peer writing tutor at a top engineering school. I would be surprised if an engineer had verb-noun agreement. (That said, my kid was a nuclear engineer and is a great writer, so that is the danger of stereotypes...)

The subcultures have all the fun
Whatever just don't tell Lemmy you're a landlord
Good. Landlords should be scared.

Good to know PNW furries don't hit on my career.
Maybe tell them you're a taxidermist? Although that might be a different kind of turn on.
I don’t see the problem
