He Does What He Wants, She Begs for More
Alright, so I fell in love with a fox furry and he is trying to stick to the whole typical fox characteristics of being really yiffy and wanting to yiff and have more than one mate. We dated for a year; he proposed, but then I started accusing him of cheating and found out he was but it was just online and by text and that made me more paranoid and I accused him more. He broke up with me on Thanksgiving Day, right after I went too far and told his friend that it sounded more like he had a mate and I had changed his status on an adult furry website. Now after he cooled down he said we would be on a break till the 19th. He made it sound like he really would take me back; then on the 3rd of December he decided I would be his pet. On the 4th of December he said, no, I want to be friends or nothing. Now he has agreed back to the 19th of December to rethink this. What am I to do? I really love this guy and no one understands that he was the one and only I could ever see standing next to me at the alter. I would agree to any terms he would put before to get him back. What do I do?

Dear Banana,
I wonder if you can hear yourself in this letter. He breaks up with you, he decides you’ll go on a break until the 19th, he decides you’ll be his pet, he says you’ll be friends or nothing, he agrees to go back to the 19th and think about it. Sounds like he’s calling all the shots. Where do you factor in this relationship? Well, as you said, you would bend over and do anything he wants for him to be your mate. Doesn’t sound like a good arrangement to this bear’s ears.
In a good relationship, the two partners are on an equal footing. This is built on respect for one another. I don’t see him respecting you too much, as he seems to do whatever he wants in the relationship, but I also don’t see you respecting yourself very much.
Before you worry about your relationship with this fox, you need to find your self-respect. In other words, stop being a door mat. No relationship is worth losing your sense of self-worth. Once that is firmly established, you will be able to have a healthy relationship with someone. As things stand currently, that is not possible.
Put the fox aside for now, hon, and work on yourself.
Hugs,
Papabear
Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus rated by PEGI for PS Vita
"Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus" was rated yesterday by PEGI for PS Vita release.
The European rating board gave the game an age rating of 7, which would be simmilar to the ESRB rating of E or E10+.
Into the Nexus was released in Europe for the PS3 back in November but was overshadowed by the PS4 and Xbox One who were both released within a few days of it.
"Some of you have asked us why we made a shorter Ratchet game," Insomniac said earlier this year. "The truth is, we relished this ability to tie a bow on the PS3 era of Ratchet with a shorter title.
"We have a lot of stories to tell, some longer, some shorter. This one felt just right. It's a very polished self-contained return to the Ratchet adventures of yore."
Into the Nexus is an epolouge of Ratchet and Clank's "future series" which consists of "Tools of Destruction","Quest For Booty" and "A Crack in Time".

Classic Tezuka anime movies "Bagi", "Bremen 4", and "Prime Rose" now crowdfunding for DVD release in US & Canada!
Hi, I'm involved with a new venture called Anime Sols (http://animesols.com), which is using crowdfunding to release DVD box sets of classic Japanese anime series subtitled in English, while streaming the episodes for you to try out. We've funded 7 sets so far, with two in the manufacturing stage for release very soon.
One that's currently funding is a set of three TV specials that Osamu Tezuka produced for the yearly charity drive 24 Hour TV in the early '80s. They're all good sci-fi fantasy stories, and two of them star literal anthropomorphic animals, so I want to make sure furry/catgirl fans who might enjoy these films get the chance to watch and own them.
Baggy(usually known under the spelling "Bagi") is about a cat who develops human-like walking, speech and intelligence, and her quest to find out her origins. Part 1 of 3 at this link: http://animesols.com/videos/220
Bremen 4 is a modern sci-fi re-imagining of the classic tale "Bremen Town Musicians", in which the four animals use alien technology to turn into humans for part of the story. It's fun to see how they use their different skills as humans and animals to solve problems! Part 1 of 3 here: http://animesols.com/videos/149
If you like what you see and want to help fund the DVD release, look on the right side of the page to see the various pledge packages. You can go as low as a $5 Booster for simple support, $30 for a Core package that includes the DVD boxset, and even higher for DVD sets that include other bonus extras.
The pledge drive for this set ends 10 PM EST on Friday Dec. 13, so if you'd like this to succeed, please help by spreading the word! Unfortunately only US & Canadian ISPs are able to watch the videos and make pledges, but if you live outside of North America, a furry friend living there might be able to help
I'm happy to answer any questions you may have!

Original Voice Actor for Tails Dies at 48 [Update: He's not dead]
UPDATE: Turns out, it wasn't the voice actor that died, just a guy with the exact same name.
Christopher Evans Welch, the original voice actor for Miles "Tails" Prower from the "The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog" TV series, passed on earlier this week.
The voice over artist died in an L.A. hospital following a short illness. He was 48 years old.
His work as Tails was his first ever TV role, starting in 1993. His later film credits include the narrator in Woody Allen's "Vicky Cristina Barcelona", as well as roles in "Synecdoche", "NY" and Sydney Pollack's "The Interpreter".
Prior to his death he was shooting a role in the upcoming HBO series "Silicon Valley".
Furry Novel Recommendations?
So I just discovered Kyell Gold has several of his books up on Audible. I just finished Bridges, Out of Position, and my favorite so far, Green Fairy.
Does anyone have other good published authors I should check out? Not just audio books of course, but ebooks are a plus.

A Dandy in Space!
Lots of fandom folks (anime, furry, science fiction and otherwise) got excited this fall with the news that the team behind Cowboy BeBop had created a new, openly-silly science fiction anime called Space Dandy. The teaser trailer started making the rounds on YouTube. Well now comes even better news: Thanks to the efforts of Funimation, Space Dandy will be the first ever anime to premier in Japan and dubbed on American TV, simultaneously. It’ll be part of Adult Swim’s Toonami collection. Here’s what the producers say: “Space Dandy is a dandy in space! This dreamy adventurer with a to-die-for pompadour travels across the galaxy in search of aliens no one has ever laid eyes on. Each new species he discovers earns him a hefty reward, but this dandy has to be quick on his feet because it’s first come – first served! Accompanied by his sidekicks, a rundown robot named QT and Meow the cat-looking space alien, Dandy bravely explores unknown worlds inhabited by a variety of aliens.” According to the folks at Cartoon Brew, “Anime auteur Shinichiro Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo) heads up the direction of Space Dandy which is produced by Japanese animation studio Bones and written by Keiko Nobumoto (Wolf’s Rain, Cowboy Bebop, Macross Plus), Dai Sato (Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Eureka 7, Ergo Proxy) and Kimiko Ueno (Crayon Shin-chan).” Check out the new trailer on YouTube now!
Persona 4 Golden Sells 700k Units Worldwide
It seems like over the past week or so I've been either talking about Persona, hearing about Persona, or thinking about Persona. With that in mind, it's fitting that I'm here to write up another story regarding the beloved franchise, and luckily for everyone involved it's some positive news. Persona 4 Golden for the Playstation Vita has sold over 700,000 units worldwide!
While it may not seem like a lot in the context of AAA titles like Call of Duty who sell millions of units in a day, most ATLUS games are consider an amazing success if they break half a million. They already did so with Persona 4 for the PS2, and now they've done it again for the Vita.
ATLUS is celebrating this by discounting the digital version in the japanese Playstatino Store, but sadly there's no news about a similar price drop on the english version.
I'll leave this by saying that if you haven't played Persona 4 before and your a big fan of JRPGs, it's well worth it. Even if you're not a huge fan, there's still much to love with the story and characters. I reccomend to everyone.
Have you played P4 or P4G before? If so, what did you think about it? If not, any reason that you haven't picked it up yet?
