America is a big place. Being alive today allows us to be exposed to a multitude of diverse communities.
If you select a particular place or community at random, chances are, you won't fit in. But there probably is a group you DO fit into. The situation today is much better than our ancestors, who were born into a tribe, and were probably stuck living within that tribe.

I find a few friends in college for a while but graduation separated us. Fortunately, the internet made finding a community to belong possible. Since joining the furry fandom, I haven't been wanting for a place to belong.
