as someone who isn't a pokefur but knows a lot of people who play PMD, I know what you mean and I can relate to this there's something about PMD's following I just don't know how to explain but it feels like if you missed out on its golden age, you can't make friends with them

what I meant to say was: if you didn't get into PMD ages ago, then it's not easy to make friends now with ppl whose friendships are contingent on being super into PMD, even if you have a lot else in common, etc.

I was having a conversation with friends a couple nights ago about how PMD fans like to make cliques and their friend circles are surprisingly hard to be accepted into
