Rest in Peace, Dragoneer
a year ago
In light of Dragoneer's passing, I feel like leaving this message here:
I love this fandom. I cannot stress that enough. Despite everything, despite its drama and darkness, this fandom has become a part of me that won't ever fade. It is through this fandom that I have discovered new things about myself and met so many great people and friends that I nearly consider family to me. I have formed my identity into that of a big fat hyena/grizzly bear that loves the 1980s and 90s, eating big, cracking dad jokes, and rocking the hell out of Hawaiian shirts.
Were it not for Dragoneer, the majority of the fandom would not be where it is today. Through FurAffinity, Dragoneer helped so many people to find this great community and find a place where they feel accepted and not judged.
It brings me great shame, disgust, bitterness, and resentment that the utterly fucked US healthcare system did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to help him in his last moments of strength. Dragoneer deserved so much better than to be left to die like that.
So I will again say this.
Rest in peace, Dragoneer. You are free from your pain and suffering now. I hope you have found peace in the afterlife. And we will do everything to honor your memory and legacy. No matter what it takes.
💜💛
