Short Stories: Sloth Speed Dating Thing
🕑 Added 2025-01-09 15:55:08 +0000 UTCPost-Mira and Pre-Cass, Itzel goes looking for a connection at the Hangout, one of the last dedicated lesbian sloth bars in the country. And it's right in St. Charlies! You'd think she'd spend more time there.
This comic isn't a stealth jab at pet dogs or the owners who love them. I adore dogs (and wish I had a few!). I'm just mind-blown at the sheer number of people online and IRL who aggressively hate cats. How could anyone hate any animal, much less a pet? Animals are the true innocents of our planet, and cats and dogs especially deserve all of our affection and devotion. Malice towards animals often exposes malice towards humans, and no, you don't get a pass from me if you hate snakes or spiders. Dial back the arduous contempt, folks! My gosh.
Itzel, you dodged a bullet.

Even WITHIN the fandoms there was contention. I was a staunch Michelangelo fan in a world of Raphael stans. Didn't we know Raph and Mikey were bros who loved each other??

I remember early on, loads of bronies went to extreme measures to say "Nope, we an't furries, want nothing to do with them." and likewise. It was sad and stupid, a duel combo of *sigh* Fandom gets started at a young age too. Remember the console wars of the 80's/90's in the schoolyards?

That's a very interesting way of looking at it. The bronies and the furries will never mix, unless they totally do!

One word, FANDOM. People like to go all in on stuff and pet owners are a level of fandom. Even with bad experiences though, hating is a bit far and I don't blame Itzel for noping all of the way out of there.

"I'm allergic to cats" and "I hate cats" are two different statements. You can't help being allergic, you can reflect on hatred and figure out what the heck is eating you.

I respect if she was allergic, but /bitch/ better hit the bricks if she talking bad about the Purrr-sons of the house.

It's a family affair!

Dogs have owners. Cats have staff. Back in my university days, a nice golden orb weaver in my lab had a Blessed Event. 20+ years later, her kids still inhabit the lab and general neighborhoodβ¦π

I love that they just assume Homer was an extremely butch lady. XD

Cats are like the UNIX Operating System. They ARE User Friendly, but they are extremely picky about who their friends are...

Also, I like to think lesbian sloth speed dating is so niche these are the only two participants.

We humans changed cats and dogs on a biological and I daresay spiritual level. We owe them the world!

Pets are members of the family. They deserve our love and affection and our care.

Itzel is far too caffeinated for slow dating!

Sloth speed dating? Isn't it more like sloth slow dating?
