This is a #callout post regarding Howler the Husky. 🧵
A few hours ago, Howler reposted via his Instagram story, an extremely transphobic video where a woman was essentially reducing transidentity to “pretending”. I sent him a DM mentioning that I was feeling hurt and offended that he would share such hateful rhetoric.
He is a quite influential member of the furry fandom, and I find it shocking and disheartening to see that he is a transphobe. After he saw my message, which I will post a screenshot of in the next tweet, he decided to block me. So I did the same.
I leave it up to each of you to decide whether or not you wish to unfollow or block him.

The furry fandom has just lost two kind and innocent souls over the span of less than 24 hours… This is the saddest and most unfortunate chain of events I’ve seen within this fandom ever since joining it…
To their families, friends, and everyone close to them, I would like to extend my most sincere condolences. I can only imagine how intense your pain is right now, and I implore you to reach out and seek support should it become unbearable.
I knew neither of those people, but I share their pain and sadness. Should anyone need anything, even if it’s just someone to hear them out, or reminisce about their happy memories with either of those people, my DMs are open.
@TOS I got confused by unisex toilets yesterday… like, I walked in, and all I saw were stalls, and two female-presenting people washing their hands. I walked out, thinking it was the ladies’ room, but failed to locate the men’s room…
Now before someone mentions it, I know I’m a woman, but I still present masculine, so it wouldn’t be right for me to use the ladies’ room.
Anyways, having failed to locate the men’s room, I asked one of the two people, “excuse me, can you tell me where the men’s bathroom is?” They said, “oh, this is a unisex bathroom.” So yea that happened..!
