This is my suggestion.

Artist SFW? FA DA Weasyl Person1 Yes FA (use link) DA (use link) N/A Person2 No FA (use link) N/A Weasyl (use link)

We put this up in a sticky post, and occasionally add artists on when people throw a name out in the comments.

Dear Papa Bear,

Let me just say thanks for taking time out of your day to read my messages. Your advice is really helpful! I'm sorry I waited so long to respond to your messages. I've been busy with school, personal stuff, a relative just passed away, etc. 

Anyway, I have another question. I was wondering if you have any advice for meeting furries in real life. I recently joined a Furry forum for furries in the Midwest called Michiganfurs.com. I've only been on the website for a couple days, but so far I dislike it because the interface is, well ... awful. But, I'll keep using it until I make contact with someone. 

I remember I Skyped with a furiend from DA once, but only one time. It was kind of awkward, because we had never spoken before. But, he lives in Nevada and I live in Michigan, so I don't think I'll ever meet him. :(

Anyway, back on topic. I was just wondering if you have any general advice for meeting furries IRL. 

Sincerely, 

Steve

Dear Steve,

If I were you, I would give Michiganfurs.com (aka Midwest Furries, though most members are in Michigan) more of a chance. When I lived in Michigan this site really helped me to connect to a lot of furries. You’ll get used to the interface. A HUGE benefit of being a member of Midwest Furries is that the site includes a furry locator map. Also, there is FurryMap.net, where furries register their locations. There are quite a lot of us in Michigan.

Other sites you can use to find furries include Meetup.com, where you can search on “furry” to find possible furry meets in your area; however, at this time I don’t see any meet-up groups in your area.

Next, go to a furcon. There used to be an outstanding mid-size furcon in Novi Michigan called Furry Connection North, but, sadly, it has closed. HOWEVER, there is a new one in Grand Rapids called Great Lakes Fur Con (http://greatlakesfurcon.com) that will debut in 2014. I think I’ve heard of another furcon in Michigan starting up soon, but can’t recall at the moment where it is. If possible, you should also attend Midwest Furfest in Chicago (well, Rosemont, technically; http://www.furfest.org/). Even though it’s in Illinois, it is the third largest furry convention in the country and you’re sure to make connections there—provided you’re not the shy type. Many furcon sites allow you to register and search on other people who are going to that particular con, so you can chat with them online and, if you connect to someone you like, you can make plans to meet them at the con.

Another thing you can do is visit www.furry4life.org. Go to “Groups” and search on Michigan and you’ll find three or four groups where you can meet lots of people. You can also go to the Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/MichiganFurries/.

Still another option is online gaming. If you play, say, World of Warcraft or some other online game like Everquest or Lord of the Rings, or fiddle around on SecondLife, you are bound to meet furries. Because there are so many doing online gaming, you are quite likely to find some who live in Michigan.

Now, if you are looking for a furry who is more than just a friend, you can also try www.FurryMate.com.

Hope these tips help, and hope you find some local furiends!

Cheers,

Papabear

Just wondering if there's any fur-related stuff going on for thanksgiving for you guys. Also, I'm away from home unwillingly visiting relatives for thanksgiving, so I'm kind of lonely and wouldn't mind some conversation (on mobile for the week). Thanks.

Stan Sakai is world-famous as the creator, writer, and artist of Usagi Yojimbo, a multiple-award-winning funny animal comic. He has given a lot to our furry fan community, not only from his creation but from his appearances at furry conventions around the country. Now, Stan needs some real help. His wife Sharon has been battling cancer, and she has been in and out of hospitals for some time — basically needing 24-hour care even when she is at home. The couple have insurance, but the bills have been piling up far past what their insurance will cover. The Cartoon Arts Professional Society have set up a site asking for donations to help Stan and Sharon cover their medical expenses.  Please visit and contribute this holiday season if you can. Give back to someone who’s given us great characters and great art!

It's called Behind The Mask. I've watched three episodes of it, think it's pretty good. Thought it'd be worth sharing here.

A few weeks back, the official Crash Bandicoot website, which I didn't know still existed, was taken down by Activision. As a result, speculation regarding the franchise's fate quickly spread amongst fans. This was further fueled by a still-frame from a recently released trailer promoting the PlayStation 4 (seen below on the left side, with an alleged deconstruction on the right):

The gestalt of these combined facts led people to believe that Sony may have acquired the rights to what was once an unofficial mascot of the PlayStation brand. Unfortunately, my fellow Crash fans should prepare to be disappointed. A representative speaking on Activision's behalf has confirmed that the Crash Bandicoot franchise is still firmly in their hands.

I know that this is saddening for people, like myself, who grew up on PlayStation. Though my earliest gaming memories are of the NES and SNES, the PlayStation dominated my formative gaming years. Crash Bandicoot was one of those games I could never tried of. I don't actually care which company owns the right to Crash Bandicoot. The only reason I cared about this story is that it meant there MIGHT be a chance for the orange marsupial to make a return. The last game in the franchise was from 2008, and that was Mind Over Mutant. It's about time for a return to form. Any of you Crash fans out there also disappointed by this? Let us know in the comments.
