Furry, Explained with Finn the Panther

It has been quite the past couple of weeks in the furry fandom! In this episode, Finn goes over the latest update on FurAffinity, and how the fallout of the website and Twitter account being "hacked" revealed an interesting dependency furries have that is not always obvious.
Finn also unpacks his latest two videos, including his thoughts on the response to the Spirit Halloween Furry Masks video as well as the reasonings behind his points made in the video about responding to the idea that the furry fandom is "what you make of it!"
Finally, as Finn prepares to attend Tails and Tornadoes FurCon next week, he is poses a question for the audience on what they want to see from him from that con!

It has been a busy past couple of weeks! Today, Finn goes over the sad but impactful news of the founder of FurAffinity passing away and the legacy that he left behind. Then there's two videos to unpack, one about lasting longer while fursuiting and another about why trying to make friends with everyone in the furry fandom probably won't work out, and that's okay! Finally the show ends with a small request for other furry services that would be helpful for newcomers to the fandom to onboard to the community faster!
