Japan abide international ruling to stop whale hunting

Fursday - Reading List - Sun 6 Apr 2014 - 10:05

In a statement, the court said that although Japan's actions could be described as scientific research, "the evidence does not establish that the program's design and implementation are reasonable in relation to achieving its stated objectives." It went on to conclude that the country's activities do not appear to be "for the purposes" of scientific research but something else. The annual hunts under the JARPA II program are widely seen to be intended for whale meat, which is sold to restaurants in accordance with the International Whaling Commission's (IWC) literature.

There was only so long Japan could keep up this charade. Credit to them abiding by the ruling and knowing when to quit when you are caught out.

Here is a good example of why Japan’s whaling is absurd: the government has to subsidise the industry because consumption of whale meat is so low it is an unprofitable venture.

What do you guys think of transformation artwork?

Furry Reddit - Sun 6 Apr 2014 - 09:54

I know that there are sites such as furaffinity that have both furry artwork along with other fetishes, such as transformation artwork (for a good example of a purely transformation-related artwork site, go to www.transfur.com), and I was wondering what my fellow furries think of this sort of offshoot. I for one love it, and find it almost more fascinating than anything furry-related (although I do still love furry artwork, don't get me wrong). Transformations of people into animals have fascinated me since I was young, and I remember feeling a sort of excitement when I watched cartoons and movies containing themes or transformation. I slowly started to look online around the age of 14, thinking myself weird for liking such a seemingly taboo subculture and finding a sort of arousal in it. With transformation art, I discovered anthropomorphic animal art, better known as furries, which fascinated me as well. I know that this transformation art is not for everyone, and after this overly lengthy and verbose rant that I just gave, I was wondering what you guys think of transformation art. Do you find it odd? Did it introduce you to furries? Did furries introduce it to you? Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions! :D

For all artists, what kickstarted your inspiration to draw the things you draw?

Furry Reddit - Sat 5 Apr 2014 - 23:36

For me, the awakening was playing the game Dust: An Elysian Tail, and that was at least a year after it came out. It gave me a huge nostalgia rush with the art style. It was also the fact that one man was able to create that entire game practically by himself with no game programming knowledge. It was truly inspirational for me. I've been possessed ever since.
