The Bouba/Kiki effect ... is the tendency for people [across most languages and cultures], when presented with the nonsense words bouba and kiki, to associate bouba with a rounded shape and kiki with a spiky shape.

What the HELL is Animalympics? (Furry Olympics) -- a video essay by Saberspark

ANIMALYMPICS (1980) | Official Trailer

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animalympics

Notes from the Wiki article:

Animalympics was commissioned by NBC in 1978, as the network intended Lisberger Studios to create it as two hour-long specials to be paired alongside coverage of both the 1980 Winter Olympics and the Summer Olympics then held in Moscow. But after the Soviet Union had invaded and gained control of Afghanistan, then United States President Jimmy Carter decided to boycott the Moscow Summer Olympics. Because of this, NBC canceled its Olympic coverage and the Animalympics Summer special.

However, from its conception, producer Donald Kushner and director Steven Lisberger intended the project as a feature-length theatrical release (complete with Dolby surround sound via 35mm film), even though The Winter Olympics special was already considered being nominated for an Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film.

Among those who worked on Animalympics were art director/animator Roger Allers, animation director Bill Kroyer, and animator Brad Bird. Allers, who animated Kit Mambo, the lion star of Animalympics, went on to direct The Lion King. Kroyer later wrote and directed the Oscar-nominated short Technological Threat and the animated feature FernGully: The Last Rainforest. Brad Bird went on to work as story editor of The Simpsons, and later achieved even greater success writing and directing The Iron Giant, The Incredibles and Ratatouille. Director Lisberger went on to conceive, co-write and direct the science fiction cult classic Tron, which some of the Animalympics crew were involved in. Its soundtrack supervisor was Michael Fremer, who was involved in Animalympics as a co-writer, voice artist, dialogue/music track editor and sound mix supervisor. Fremer also went on to supervise the soundtrack to Tron as well.

"The Star Wars lore states that Jawas are rodent-like furry creatures and EU Tuskens were related to Jawas so that can only mean that they are rat and mice people."

Paraphrased from the E621 explainer on 6/26:

On June 26 2015, the United States Supreme Court, presiding over the landmark case of Obergefell v. Hodges, declared in a 5–4 decision that homosexual couples have the fundamental right to marry per both the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, and that any state-level bans on same-sex marriage are unconstitutional. This tag is for posts where characters celebrate that decision in the form of gay pride.

Stitch from Disney's Lilo & Stitch franchise tends to be popularly affiliated with this date as well, due to his Experiment number (626). Even though he is canonically portrayed in Disney media as heterosexual (most notably his relationship with Experiment 624/Angel), he has become a minor gay rights icon in some circles. The fact that "Stitch Day" or "626 Day" landed on the day of the decision did not go unnoticed by Lilo & Stitch film co-director/co-writer Dean DeBlois, who is openly gay. On the day of the decision, he posted a sketch on his Twitter account of Stitch and Scrump respectively waving a rainbow flag and a flag with the logo of the Human Rights Campaign.

1. We're here, we're Queer, get used to it.
2. Love & Tolerate; Bash the Fash.
3. Everyone gets yiffed (consensually).
4. There is an Anthro or Furryfied version of everything. Yes, even that. And that too. No exceptions.
5. Someone, somewhere, thinks you're hot. No exceptions.
6. Someone, somewhere, shares your kinks. No exceptions.
7. Every part of Furry is a collective responsibility, comrade. (Even this text -- suggestions welcome!)
8. Everyone "totally not a Furry" will get good-naturedly mocked by Furries. No exceptions.
9. Furry-hate is laundered Queer-hate. Stay vigilant.
10. Furries make the Internets go.
11. We are literally older than human civilization. We outlasted the Puritans, 4chan, SomethingAwful, CSI, Vanity Fair, and the Burned Furs. We are still here. The Fandom still grows and expands (uwu). We shall endure. We are inevitable. Expect us.
