I sometimes imagine that Dragoneer likes to pull people from the real world to the digital world on occasion for a bit of fun...

Today is Dragoneer’s birthday. His first without him. He would have turned 45 today. We still miss you. If it looks like I’m still on this, it’s because it is, and that’s because FurAffinity was such an important site for me in the dark days of my high school days, and death hits me pretty hard to begin with.

We all still miss you, Sean. I wish, hope, you can see the outpouring of love you’re still getting.

This is what an angry DAR looks like. Two weeks after we lost Dragoneer, I’ve had this anger in me about it. Just, all the time and money he ended up throwing away to a healthcare “provider” that just doesn’t give a shit, and how the rest us need to pick up those pieces. All that money and time for no answers before his death, and for what? Anecdotally I’ve been hearing that America is the richest country in the world and a highly privatized and deregulated healthcare system is for… some vague, vibesy idea of “freedom.” Just… what? This is what “freedom” looks like? Higher costs for a lower average life expectancy than other developed nations? Inescapable debt? Less money to buy increasingly unaffordable existence? For fuck’s sake… I don’t buy it. And neither should you. Dragoneer is just one of the latest statistics of this nightmare these ultra-rich fucks in charge want us to accept as “just reality.” But it’s not reality - it doesn’t have to be. And I don’t want to hear how rich a country the US is when we have out-of-control wealth disparity and this is how the wealthiest and the politicians they bought think we ought to have, if not feel comfortable saying this is too much for us. How the wealthy can just buy the government to do their whims for them at taxpayer expense. How welfare needs to be cut back; Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security need to be eliminated; and universal healthcare is just too much - while the government has billions if not trillions to set on fire for the military and corporate subsidies. That “freedom” isn’t for us; it’s for them to horde that wealth, the wealth we built for them with our work. And still they demand more wealth and work for less in return for us. And we can take the wealth, the work, and the future back… In any case, the charity is still going, and updated for newly discovered expenses: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-fur-affinity-honoring-dragoneers-legacy Hope you’re still resting well, Dragoneer…
