Today I realized that if I had an HDMI to component adaptor I could record my computer on my VCR. Thus I could record a Vtuber livestream on VHS.
Such a thing would almost certainly be one of a kind and thus in ten years would be worth either a fair amount... or absolutely nothing.

Hey! I want you to have a good day today, all right?

Work that made people a furry by decade:
20s: BNA, Helluva Boss
10s: Zootopia, Pokemon (there were Pokewaifus before but it hit a critical mass here.)
00s: Star Fox Assault, Digmon Tamers, Sonic Adventure 2
90s: A lot of stuff, but most likely Space Jam or The Lion King. I guess Rescue Rangers goes here too since it debuted right before the 90s. SWAT Kats for kids who got in before Turner canceled it. Hell I could probably add five or six more things; any kid growing up in this decade was doomed.
80s: Fairly safe decade; only real Furry Bait was the Catillac section of Heathcliff and Gadget right at the end. Lots of female animal characters, but I don't consider that inherently furbait.
70s: Disney's Robin Hood. Not much else, but it was enough.
60s: Everything here is either "female animal with slight human attributes" or "female cartoon character with almost no sexual appeal." These things only appeal to people who are actually furries, so it was a safe decade.
50s and Earlier: There's some pretty weird blatant furbait stuff, the most famous of which probably being that "leg of lamb" joke in that Droopy cartoon. But the stuff that would show up on TV was always isolated and unlikely to cause any real damage.

On reflection, there were some important omissions:
1960s: That squirrel from Sword in the Stone was pretty damn blatant. I mean I guess she's still in the category of "animal with slight human attributes" but when she's hitting on the main character you can't ignore it.
1970s: As a side note this is when the Fritz the Cat movies came out, i.e. the first mainstream-ish adult furry movies. But no way any kid was getting within a mile of that so it doesn't affect this list. A real omissions is that lion chick from the Star Trek cartoon show. I guess you might throw the Rescuers in here because throwing Eva Gabor's voice on top of a mouse is just asking for trouble.
1980s: I don't know how many people actually saw Animalympics back in the day, but it certainly fits here. The Great Mouse Detective should also be included for that burlesque scene. The dogs in Oliver and Company are kind of borderline; I mean yeah furries like them but I don't know if they would have caused confused feelings in children.
1990s: Stuff I omitted: Tiny Toon Adventures, Samurai Pizza Cats, Road Rovers, SatAM Sonic the Hedgehot, Mirri n Magic the Gathering, Animaniacs (I don't know how much Minerva Mink actually made an impact considering how infrequently she appeared but man it doesn't get more blatant than this). I guess we can throw Dragon Tales here as well, and to top things off this is where furry webcomics started to explode. Kids were screwed.

In isolation DeepL will translate メスガキ as "female brat."
But in the context of longer phrases I've seen it translate it to "little bitch," "meth head," "meshuggah" and in one particularly bizarre instance "anonymous scholarship system for orphans whose parents have been killed in traffic accidents."
Have yet to see it use Pixiv's gloss of "sassy loli" though.

MFW I switch my avatar to a furry to try to derail a conversation into further complaints about furries while claiming to want to get it back on track but it doesn't work because I'm posting on a website where everyone is too familiar with my shenanigans.

The five words that stop a bureaucracy in its tracks:

My official policy is: Kill all sons of bitches.

Yeah in those cases it doesn't work. But you'd be surprised by the number of times there isn't an official policy but rather just a set of "loose guidelines" or where the official policies are so convoluted and arcane that no one can tell if it is the official policy or not.
But it doesn't matter if the person in question can set an official policy in the absence of one. In fact, that just makes the question more effective. The bulk of bureaucracy consists of people trying to make things someone else's problem in order to have clout but without having to take responsibility for anything. They often do this by making you <i>think</i> that something is an official policy so that you'll give up. But if you challenge them, especially in writing, then they suddenly have to take a stand that could give them blow back. So in most cases they will either back down or else pass the buck to people who continue the process. Nothing ends up happening. (Though note that since this <i>stops</i> bureaucracy this is only an effective play for you if you want noting to happen, such as when they are trying to fine you.)
This is more effective the higher up you go since people are bigger targets and have more to lose, so they are more careful about being blamed for something. Entry level service employees, especially outsourced ones, will often care so little about their jobs that they'll just lie to hope you go away. Though you might be able to get a manager involved, as long as you can live with the type of person who asks for the manager.
