I wonder how the pizza place next door feels everytime I stumble in, wearing the same clothes I’ve worn for 3 days, unwashed hair, no makeup, looking dead inside, and ask for a calzone. I bet they’re like “ shit here comes the Calzone Goblin, demanding substance and root beer once more”
artist needed money for college, people from tumblr/dA told them their prices were too expensive and that no one would commission them.
artist was desperate and logged on to their old Furaffinity account to take commissions
artist got a shitton of commissions and everyone was supportive and encouraging
people ended up tipping the artist 10-20$ per commission because they thought the artist was undercharging
tl;dr - furries supported artist and treated them better than the “pro-artist” sides of dA and tumblr.
Reminds of that Reddit post I found
The TL;DR is that he went to a con expected to walk around laughing at furries being cringey, but was converted when everyone there treated him as part of gang despite his intentions and he had a blast.
It made him realize furries are generally just good people that really love their hobby/fandom and he took the time to tell his story on r/furry and apologize for being a hater.
