Chat, draw, fursuit, dance, play, in short – in every way a good time with the people whose roof collapsed on the same side as you – is that not cool?
“We [have] returned to our boardinghouse RAS Zvenigorod. This is the best option for price/quality ratio. Holiday Hotel is located in a mixed forest, at some distance from the road. Mountainous terrain contributes to various valiant pastimes: skiing (lift available), sleds, smertaziki and [more…] [For] better or worse, time will tell. In any case, we will be happy to see you all.”

“The Furry fandom is a fandom for fictional anthropomorphic animal characters with human personalities and characteristics. Think of characters like Bugs Bunny or Disney’s Robin Hood. Examples of anthropomorphic attributes include exhibiting human intelligence and facial expressions, the ability to speak, walk on two legs, and wear clothes. A “Furry” simply refers to a member of this fandom. Many Furries select a specific animal that they relate to, either physically or spiritually. Some furry fans create and wear costumes, commonly known as fursuits, of their characters.”
