   > Hi guys, so a quick message from the future: Furries are almost mainstream   
   now. Disney spent an estimated shit tonne of money on a movie explicitly   
   featuring 'anthropomorphic animals.' That got us a few more recruits.   
   Anthrocon now attracts over 6000    
   people, and Vanity Fair doesn't show up looking for scandalous pics anymore,   
   because it's considered passe. I submitted an essay for my Masters course at   
   one of the world's top universities, and it's pretty much about queer furries.   
   I got top marks. I    
   also gave a presentation to my class about liminal wereanimals (more queer   
   furries) and all in attendance loved it. Should point out the homos won. Sorry   
   straight people, we ousted you from your privileged perch. And congrats US for   
   achieving gay    
   marriage on a federal level! Only 10 years after South Africa, but who's   
   keeping count? Ahem. Anyways, yeah, it's a glorious new age for furries   
   everywhere, and especially queer ones. Did I mention that? Sorry, just wanted   
   to rub in how awesome th   
   is fandom is for fostering such a gay-friendly atmosphere. Was it like that in   
   2003? Are you guys still furries? Weird. Oh, and there are indeed furries who   
   can make enough money solely drawing furry art to support themselves. Crazy   
   huh? Like I said, it'   
   s a brave new world, and I thought I'd share this happiness. Hope none of you   
   are dead. Gosh, that'd be depressing.

   We did in 2003, yes. Completely accepting--like to the point where it's   
   not even an issue that's brought up. We just considered it normal and   
   still do.   
      
   Sadly a few have passed away over time, though--but that's normal too.   
   People come and go but their spirit lives on.
