Who are some celebrities, youtubers, or other notable people who you think or know are probably furries even if they don't explicitly acknowledge it.

I'll propose John Oliver, I would say Mr. Regular too, but he has publicly acknowledged it for a while now.

I saw that SonicFox is a pro gamer who's also a furry. Not really sure about others as I'm outside the community, but I saw this pop up on my feed and thought I'd respond. SonicFox is one helluva gamer.

He's noteworthy because he wears his fursuit head to pro level gaming tournaments. He's said before that at least part of the reason he does it is because it unnerves his opponents.

He's probably the GOAT of mortal Kombat. He just got first place at evo. Again.

Man that sounds hot. I mean sweaty. How can you not get heat exhaustion competing in a fursuit?

[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 8 points 1 month ago

Just the head doesn't sound so bad. Might make it hard to see though.

... Okay, that makes me think that playing poker in a fursuit would be amazing.

You could either have the best poker face, or program a protogen visor to have the worst poker face.

Is John Oliver actually a furry or do his fans just call him that because he kinda looks like a sexy mouse man?

otter man

He buys paintings of sexy mouse men. He also dressed up as a bird for the New Zealand bird contest, and frequently has animal mascots for random stuff on the show.

He also 'jokes' about sexy animals a lot more than any normal person would, and he's clearly very aware of the furry fandom.

Honestly if he's not a furry, I don't ever want to find that out for sure, because him being a furry is my favorite head canon. I want to believe.

If he said he wasn't a furry, I would assume it was a bit. There is just too much furry signaling for it to only be a coincidence.

I appreciate that John Ottiver is packing heat.

[–] Jimbo@yiffit.net 3 points 1 month ago

I'm not sure if I do to be honest...

The click, the amount of furry_irl video's he makes is telling.
