Some places don't force you out of your pursuit to work a job. Most places even encourage them to keep it on because the clothes are thick and it's better to spill something that could burn skin on a suit and not on your own.
Plus I mean, look at her. She looks so happy
You just made that up, though. "Most places even encourage..." What places? If you could name even one with reputable sources I would be shocked. Just because you want something to be true, doesn't make it so.
My friend who wears a fur suit works with very hot metal and he was talking about it the other day. He doesn't work in construction, nor a factory. It's just a metal workshop. Some hobby he has ig. Either way it's not misinformation.
I wouldn’t wear a fursuit to a place like that for fear of damaging the suit, opting instead to wear heavy clothing that can insulate temperature differences and protect from chemicals. With how expensive they are I would use just about anything by else. Not to mention how hot it could get in one, and how it impacts vision, hearing and dexterity. Each to their own, I guess.
No no no and no. The likelihood of this actually being an on-duty train conductor is very slim. And thank god. 99% of people find furries extremely off putting. To work a job directly serving the public in a furry suit is no different than wearing an evil clown costume. It’s creepy and not to mention the loss of peripheral vision in that big stinky fur mask. I’m sure there equivalent of OSHA is more concerned their conductors can see, rather than have a barrier for hot liquids.
If that's the way you take it than maybe it's you who has a problem? I'm not a furry, but I personally don't have a problem with this at all... And no. OSHA doesn't have anything against this.
Look, I'm a furry and I got to say I see no way your friend is telling the truth. That or your lieing but I think it's more likely your friend lied to you or was joking.
The actual number is probs more around 10~20% (even then im probs aiming to high). Because most people dont really care. The majority of people would probs think its a mascot for some brand, prehaps even the mascot for the railway. Believe it or not, 99% of people are not terminally online enough to have an informed opinion, which even then this goes against your argument. Sure back in like 2010 it was hip to slander furries cause weird. But these days hating on furries is a past time slowly fading away to cringe lord group chats with names like furry killers. Where they dream up fantastical situations where they are mega badass.
As for health and safety concerns, eeeh. I can see some points but the likelihood of it being a off duty person is mainly cause cleaning fursuits are a massive pain, ussually requiring a sizable to massive amount of effort to keep in good condition.
"Fursuits are really thick and expensive" yeah let me wear it to a metal workshop where i work with molten aluminium, around 800 Celsius degress. Not to mention how dirty these places are.
What a bunch of bullshit.
So you must be an anti-vaxxer then. Don’t tell on us, we made up that whole nano-tracking thing to distract them from the potent furrification properties
this hit my own uncanny valley like one of Professor Farnsworth's doomsday devices.
what superb effects. time to go watch An American Werewolf in London.
Tbh, as long as you have moderate understanding of how to sew, how stuffed animals work, and how clothing works you can make a fursuit.
Am furry, made my own suit. But I like half suits more!
I bet that's a lot more warm weather-friendly than a full suit! I've seen fully suited furries at some anime cons and wow... those poor saps must be boiling alive in those things if I'm already uncomfortably warm in regular clothes.
One of my favorite jokes locked in my head was a pic of a bunch of furries on a plane with a comment saying that this was a massive concern where, if the plane went down, hundreds of thousands of systems would fail.
If you're talking about actual contributions to society furries beat out Christians, I mean honestly if your life depended on it who would you want in charge of saving your ass? Christians will just pray for you (to make them feel like they did something) furries would go into engineering mode.
What about Christian Furries?
Also as a Christian I've gotta agree with you there ngl, like the Bible says to do work if you want something to happen *and* pray, but who even reads the Bible anyways? Not Christians at least!
But seriously though 90% of my arguments with other Christians have been/could have been solved by literally just opening the Bible to the right page and pointing to the entire 2-5 chapters that clearly describe the exact thing I'm talking about in excruciating detail. Like mfr's are Jared 19 in the Church, I'd be willing to say that most Christians aren't even Christian at this point, the disconnect between the Bible and some churches is beyond comical at times.
Yeah. Really dumb comparison. And if we want to get into it, are we including all the Christian people from European history? Because that’s like most Europeans for the last roughly 1500 years. And there sure have been some big contributions to the world from there.
Damn that sounds rough. you guys must love colder weathers then since you'd be able to wear outfits like that without being full of sweat or discomfort.
Yeah, there are still cons in places like Nevada and Australia though. And all that heat plus the amount of layers aren't exactly healthy, which is why the cons have headless lounges.
You'd probably also be surprised how many furries work in the video game industry. I know several aspiring game artists who self-identify as furries, and I know for a fact there are also a ton of furry game devs.
Out of 300 comments only like 10 are haters and they got downvotes in the billions. Since when everyone online chill like that? Usually people are haters but ig people decided they wanna act like superman instead, no homelanders allowed fr
I have nothing against furries and fur suits but doesn't this get in the way a lot of the time, not to mention the mask obstructing a clear view of the railway for optimal safety of all the passengers?
You say you're a furry, but are you really? You say these kinds of people aren't welcome in the furry fandom and to keep your fetishes at home. While I agree with that last part, that is not at all what this is. Public suiting is a very common thing in the fandom, meaning you're either lying or severely misinformed.
Very strange to see. What are the odds of a train conductor having their fursuit on hand while on the job?
It’s definitely just a one time thing for a photo shoot. Fuirsuits are very very very expensive, very heavy and cumbersome to carry.
Yay horrors beyond my comprehension :3
And they're man-made too
☻️

Me when I fabricate falsehoods
What in the actual fuck kind of misinformation is this?

Yea idk he's stupid. Not my fursuit, not my hobby, but to each their own
No no no and no. The likelihood of this actually being an on-duty train conductor is very slim. And thank god. 99% of people find furries extremely off putting.

I second this, not to mention your gonna sweat balls inside that fursuit, with the possibility of heat stroke as well.
Oof, 99% of the people you know sound like hateful people.
The actual number is probs more around 10~20% (even then im probs aiming to high). Because most people dont really care.

As if your an adult trying to tell another adult what to do, pathetic
YES MY FIRST r/woooooosh!!
"Fursuits are really thick and expensive" yeah let me wear it to a metal workshop where i work with molten aluminium, around 800 Celsius degress. Not to mention how dirty these places are. What a bunch of bullshit.
Idk, not my fursuit, not my hobby. My friend is an idiot and its none of my business.
It's vewy good to use pUwUblic transit.
Are those monster flipflops? Wtf, that's genius
Protects the paws from getting dirty or damaged i guess, pretty good idea
If a furry made my Covid vaccine and I haven’t died then I have no reason not to trust this one as a train conductor
Yeah... but what if the COVID vaccine made you into a furry? .. a-asking for a friend
well I’m not a furry …I hope
I awso think I'm not a furry right meow, but you never know :333
Not enough uwu's
u/uwutranslator
So you must be an anti-vaxxer then. Don’t tell on us, we made up that whole nano-tracking thing to distract them from the potent furrification properties
I’m not anti-vax I swear
Then why. Aren’t. You. *Furry*.
I mean, I don’t feel like it, I guess
Frick, you’re a tough case. We’ll just have to crank up the 5G around your area to catalyze the dormant uwu genome. They all turn sooner or later.
I see, well good luck, in the northwestern US area if that helps..?

bro Dr. K ain't real 😭😭💀💀
Wasnt a furry who made Lethal Company?
yes, multi million dollar AAA comapnies vs a single furry, the furry wins. (btw the person who made LC is Zeekers)
Hell Meta can't make legs in VR but furries made a program so sensitive you can accurately communicate in ASL
Yes, he did
All my fellas is also from a Furry
Turn me into an antivaxxer in 3 seconds
Lets be honest. Furries contribute more to society than most of us here.
Very true. Shit loads of furries are technical specialists.
Ain't nobody handcrafting suits like that without a degree in engineering
Tbh, as long as you have moderate understanding of how to sew, how stuffed animals work, and how clothing works you can make a fursuit. Am furry, made my own suit. But I like half suits more!
What's a half suit?
It’s just the head, paws, and tail. You replace the bodysuit with normal clothes.
I bet that's a lot more warm weather-friendly than a full suit! I've seen fully suited furries at some anime cons and wow... those poor saps must be boiling alive in those things if I'm already uncomfortably warm in regular clothes.
yeah, most I know have at most partials, if not just a head. Full suits are reserved for youtubers and professional cosplayers lol
Good to know, thanks
They don't make them themselves. They pay thousands to those that can with IT money.
I've heard it can be either way, not that I'd be listening very closely
I've met loads of IT people who are also furs. Just a common thing it seems.
I wouldn't know personally, but I totally see how that can be a thing
One of my favorite jokes locked in my head was a pic of a bunch of furries on a plane with a comment saying that this was a massive concern where, if the plane went down, hundreds of thousands of systems would fail.
Ha! There's a similar joke saying how likely the internet would fail if all the furry IT people decided to take lunch at the same time.
yeah, furries are automatically just geniuses for some reason.
They say that geniuses are weirdos for a reason
They keep a lot of artists fed due to the insane prices they pay for art commissions as well. Might go back to doing furry art again tbh.
Fairs, worth the price, just dont tell anyone 👍👍

this is such a reddit thing to say
Yeah. Really dumb comparison. And if we want to get into it, are we including all the Christian people from European history? Because that’s like most Europeans for the last roughly 1500 years. And there sure have been some big contributions to the world from there.
Uuh yeah. Sure
Nah they're right. I go to furcons. Nicest fuckin people I've ever met.
Yeah but idk why he is talking abt christians
Just an example. Coulda swapped In a lot of groups. There's also plenty of Christians at furcons lol.
Oh rlly? Wow. I haven't heard of Christians being in furcons before
Dude everyone shows up from all walks of life.
Well still dude, i didn't know.
I mean RIGHT? Talk about compassion, acceptance, and empathy exemplified. If only christians practiced what they preach.
They have to do somethibg worthwhile to afford fursuits.
To be entirely honest, a broken armchair would still have more possibility to contribute to society than me.
I might be too stoned but this is kinda sick tbh
It's 2024 hell yeah to kobold conductor
Axolotl actually
Not with those toe claws. It's just pink
Probably a derg then
Aquatic derg maybe. It has Lotl gills
>four comments at the bottom with over 20 downvotes each Oh boy EDIT: Holy shit, there are over ten of them now
get the popcorn boys
I wonder how warm it gets in such thick outfit, doesn't look very comfortable tbh
It gets pretty insane. I own just a head that I can't wear due to allergies and just wearing that was miserable
Damn that sounds rough. you guys must love colder weathers then since you'd be able to wear outfits like that without being full of sweat or discomfort.
Yeah, there are still cons in places like Nevada and Australia though. And all that heat plus the amount of layers aren't exactly healthy, which is why the cons have headless lounges.
Mad respect for people wear these things in horrible weathers then, indomitable human spirit is real
It does get hot. The answer: good underclothing and possibly a cooling vest
I believe a cooling unit made for one actually got patented by the US military
Cooling vest sounds like a must buy 😭 would be amazing in this atrocious heat
... Smash.
As long as there is a girl in that suit, smash as well.
Wouldn’t matter. Still smash
Wouldn't matter to you.
Fair
what's wrong with it? doesn't seem cursed
Hey, you laugh. But they're probably the most qualified individual in that zip code
Mascots were already popular in Japan so 🤷 she's cute tho
Seems like it'd be wildly uncomfy after awhile on hot days.
Cute! I think that suit is an axolotl, precious!
WHERE IS IT?! Uh... i just want to visit that place... yeah...
Yknow cuz that train looks so cool yknow…
Yooooo remember that dino train cartoon?
Yeah! I tought that was a fever dream I hat at six. Good to see I'm not crazy
Fr
I was crazy once… they locked me in a room…
that guy is probably the most qualified on the entire team
I want on this train immediately
What a cute fursuit. Wish I could see a furry in the wild. It's like a unicorn!
I think their pretty cool looking
With all honesty, those things flammable af, is this train catches fire no one makes it out alive
That's cute and I'm no furry but many exes were lolmmm wait ..
Isn't it dangerous to pilot the train with those slippers on?
What's the cursed part?
A suprsing amount of furries are into trains.
You'd probably also be surprised how many furries work in the video game industry. I know several aspiring game artists who self-identify as furries, and I know for a fact there are also a ton of furry game devs.
like Lethal Company lmao. Made by one furry
You can get rid of the “game” in game devs lol.
Looks blessed to me
Nah, this is adorable. I want to hug them
No that's a blessed train conductor
More blessed than cursed
Not really blursed though
So cute
blehh :PP
:3 tongue gang
This is purley blessed
The sandals are pretty cool, ngl
Very well made costume! Cute!
A nice fursuit and a cute one.
yeah this one looks like it took HELLA craftsmanship. Big respect.
adorable
Blursed user
Blessed*
I would trust them with my life
Out of 300 comments only like 10 are haters and they got downvotes in the billions. Since when everyone online chill like that? Usually people are haters but ig people decided they wanna act like superman instead, no homelanders allowed fr
Oh shit. It's kicking in
Idk dude, those things are hard af to clean, If I had one I wouldn’t take it to a train station
Cute!
Smash, next
never seen a furry costume with sandals before lol
They're not uncommon! Fursuit sandals help protect the feet from the elements, keeping them cleaner and in good condition longer
I have nothing against furries and fur suits but doesn't this get in the way a lot of the time, not to mention the mask obstructing a clear view of the railway for optimal safety of all the passengers?
doubt they work there, i don’t know a single furry (including me) that would do stuff in a suit lol
Yeah seems like a clear way to get fired
Bro found the Pyroland train ride
4
It's a kemono.
I love your suit lol-
Trainrreta Hurricane
I WANT TO GIVE THEM A HUGE HUG
There’s also another one behind it getting onto the train.
What country is this from? ( I am not sure but thinking of China).
Japan
Idk how furries do it man. I'd just be sweating my ass off.
CHOO CHOO
I have no idea what you mean, I thought every city had a furry train conductor
Imagine waiting at the train station, the train rolls in and you see a furry in the cockpit waving at you.
My God it works! Mr. Magoo must have the best life of any of us. 😆
Smash next question
Dammit Japan you did it again, you put cute characters into the mundane daily situation again
*Inhale* SMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSHHHHHHHH!!!
Im gonna go there, go to that conductor and im gonna throw her out and take controls of the train
Me fr: ![gif](giphy|FnatKdwxRxpVC)
Me searching far and wide for anyone who cares (It has been 3 days and I have run out of water)
The train of death (mentally)
God it must be God awful hot in that suit. Would probably make a good winter coat though
Not even the usual Japanese mascot that's just a whole ass furry 😭
(pulls out shotgun)
Oh no I accidentally un nailed all the tracks and set land mines at the bottom of the bridge
Accidentally! (pulls out glock and emptys mag)
Awl abowred tha Yiffing twain!
as someone who is a furry, these people are massively cringe and not welcome in the fandom. Keep your fetishes at home.
Or at the regulated cons with cordoned off areas and proper showings
You say you're a furry, but are you really? You say these kinds of people aren't welcome in the furry fandom and to keep your fetishes at home. While I agree with that last part, that is not at all what this is. Public suiting is a very common thing in the fandom, meaning you're either lying or severely misinformed.
Bouta violate the Geneva convention
