Yup. That IRC group was in fact themed for one of those 90s cartoons (trying not to dox them too hard, for all I know they are still active. I know of them through a friend I’ve known since middle school, who doesn’t talk much about the whole furry thing these days)

Furries have been on the Internet much longer than tumblr has existed. Perhaps even longer than the world wide web has existed: I know of at least one group that was on IRC in the 90s

They are already doing renewables, which don’t have steady output. This is to provide a steady baseline.

It helps in 30 years. Which is much better than never.
