The furries are returning to Pittsburgh

Here is an article, dated June 30, on the website of Pittsburgh TV station WTAE. It concerns the upcoming Anthrocon convention:
http://www.wtae.com/news/the-furries-are-returning-to-pittsburgh/7710362
PITTSBURGH —Downtown Pittsburgh will take another walk on the wild side with the annual Anthrocon, which falls on the July Fourth holiday weekend this year.
Furries -- people who are fascinated with anthropomorphics -- will begin arriving this week for their national convention at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center. It begins Thursday and continues through Sunday.
Many of the five thousand-plus visitors stay dressed in full or partial animal costumes as they walk through the streets of the Golden Triangle while they're in town.
Anthrocon includes workshops, panel discussions, art exhibitions and vendors catering to fans of the human-like animal characters.
VisitPittsburgh estimates that the convention has brought more than $28 million in direct spending to the city since it first arrived in 2006. Anthrocon has also raised more than $140,000 for local charities. This year's charity is the National Aviary.
"They’ll buy souvenirs, they’ll eat and drink in our restaurants, they'll ll park in our parking lots, and that, as an economic benefit, is pretty big," VisitPittsburgh CEO Craig Davis said during last year's convention.
The station also has a page ("Furries from Anthrocon 2014: Complete Coverage") where people can upload photos of the event:

Give me something to listen to!
Hey everyone!
I'm going to be driving for the nex 10 hours solid, and was hoping y'all could make the trip a little more bearable by recommending furrystuff I can listen to on the way.
I'm already caught up on knotcast on the way here, and I'm not sure what's popular in the community anymore.

[SERIOUS] Community of /r/furry, What habits have you picked up that apply to your animal side?
I want to know what some habits that you do in public or secrecy that bring you closer to your animal/fursona/mythical creature/character. Constantly lick your lips like a dragon? Flex your ears as an alert rabbit would? Curl in a ball to find your comfort spot? Make low grumbling noises when displeased?
My biggest habit is walking barefooted a lot which gives me the chance to walk digitigrade. My biggest secret is eating raw meat whenever I'm alone to prepare dinner by that I'm not saying eating a whole raw steak on my own-- I might snatch a peice of uncooked bacon therefore I will eat sushi any chance I get. Yes, I understand the dangers of bacteria and parasites that lurk in raw meat but I have done this more than once and have never been sick.
The point of this post to investigate how the people of /r/ furry are once alone. So please leave the judgement out of this and pick up a point of view.
Edit: It's nice to see this thread is getting alot of attention despite the karma. Please keep sharing.
Edit 2.0: This post extends out to mythical creatures, hybrids, and etc. Not just real wild animals!

My fursona: Eva Rima
I have received many comments about my fursona so thought I would share the first commission I have had done of her.
It was done by sannamy; a very talented artist from deviantart.
Enjoy!

Dealer's room tables still available for MFM 2014. Dealers need to be registered by August 1.
Best site?
Doesn't matter what it is as long as there are anthropomorphic animals involved. Comment your favorite sites!
Edit: Okay. I'm seeing that Fur Affinity's going to be a popular entry here. Anything else?

E621 people
Why are e621 people so rude and mean? They take your art and upload it on there, then when you say something, they attack you like you are out of line for doing so! This has happened to me 3 times now with my lioness character. Every time I asked to have it taken down, I received a note from the uploader that I was an asshole or a baby.
edit:Ok people are getting the wrong view of this. What I mean by this post Is I do fill out the take down forms, However, the people who uploaded the image find out it was taken down and have noted me on FA, at least in the 3 cases in which I did this.

She’s Feeling Uncomfortable in Her Female Body
[Discussion] People, stop turning /r/furry into /r/yiff!
There's been a HUGE increase in the number of NSFW posts, discussions, and commissions in /r/furry. Either we find a new subreddit home for this stuff, or we'll have spend a helluva lot more time convincing our friends that we aren't crazy sex pervs.

They’re Angry Even On Paper
The unstoppable international phenomenon known as Rovio Studio’s Angry Birds continues with the new Angry Birds full-color comic book series from IDW Publishing. It’s written by Jeff Parker and illustrated by Paco Rodriques. “Angry Birds is based on the wildly popular mobile game by Rovio in which less-than-pleased birds launch all-out attacks on nefarious porkers. IDW’s series is just the latest feather in the cap for Rovio’s monster franchise, which has already spawned countless toys, shirts, games and more, including a film set to land in 2016.” Now you know. Check out the interview with Jeff Parker over at Comic Book Resources.

Is it weird that I sometimes think of myself as a furry?
For instance, sometimes, when I picture myself, I think of one of the anthropomorphic animals we all love. I know I'm human, but I still get these occasional thoughts. Is this abnormal?

I finally drew a decent reference for Fizz!
Please help. How do I explain to my SO Furries aren't bad people?
So I've always thought that being a furry was cool, even before I knew what it was. I only discovered the online furry community a few months ago and I love it. However, the person I'm with (which I love with all my heart) hates furries. Any advice how to break it to him gently? I know he wouldn't hide things from me, so I don't want to hide this from him.
