I'm Having A Species Crisis! Help?

Furry Reddit - Wed 17 Jul 2013 - 23:00

I have been a Furry for 6 years, 2 of which have been spent in RL participation in furmeets and conventions. When I started out I was so sure I was a fox. I was into Foxes before I even found the Fandom. But recently I have grown apart from my species, and I am not so sure I am a fox anymore. I don't know what I am. I have hesitated changing species cause I don't want to be all across the board, plus I have a fox fursuit already that my friend PAID THE FULL PRICE FOR AS A GIFT! I need to do some soul searching. How did everyone in here find thier true Fursona?

Welcome to Fuzzy Logic episode 88! SPAAAAACE!

We start off the night discussing what you shouldn’t do in a movie theater. I’m looking at you, guy with the glowing bulge in his pants. There’s discussion of the Zimmer man guy and his impressive musical portfolio. Halfwit regales us with tales of Shin Megami Tensei 4, and then explains class based affirmative action… followed by her word of the week!

Isty has news on a couple of kickstarters, one of which we thought was dead. He narrorates his Anthrocon novel, including mention of the Ursa Majors. We won! And then he winds down with a short discussion on Texas passing rather restrictive laws on abortion.

Our emails are four in number and four is the number of our emails.

First is Shifter asking advice about how to handle being approached by a documentary. Next is Koakai discussing space matters in terms of housing and how he is interested in building a small mobile trailer house (they are TINY!).

Kuchi provides a bit more information on his situation in his hometown. Ryo then talks a little more about his new place and the church next to it.

Next show will be about time management. There’s never enough of it in a day so how can you best use what little we all have?

Write in and let us know!

This is a delightfully adorable collectible card game that we though had died on Kickstarter, but found new life on Indiegogo! Go check it out!

Room Party! The Game!”
This is another card game in a very similar vein, only this is not furry themed. It’s based on the idea of throwing the most kick-ass room party you can! As of the time of this posting, they could still use a bit more funding, go have a look-see!

Music Break: Beyond the Clouds from the album ‘Millennium’ by Audiomachine. Featured as the background music in the initial ‘How to Train Your Dragon 2′ teaser trailer found here.

In-Fur-Nation - Wed 17 Jul 2013 - 18:57

After a successful run of the DC Super Pets comic book series, now DC comics bring us the DC Super Pets Character Encyclopedia, coming later this month as a full-color trade paperback.  This is from the pre-order page at Amazon: “Every super hero needs a Super-Pet! This illustrated encyclopedia features in-depth profiles, stats, and history about the DC Super-Pets and their owners. From Superman’s loyal dog, Krypto, to Batman’s heroic hound, Ace the Bat-Dog, this guide to the Worlds Greatest Pets has more than 200 DC characters, including many never-before-seen pets, all illustrated in Art Baltazar’s Eisner Award-winning style! With an introduction by legendary creator Geoff Johns, the DC Super-Pets Character Encyclopedia is sure to please comic book lovers young and old.” Not to forget, the text is written by Steve Korte. Take a closer look at the cover and you get an idea just how many animal characters are included here! [And with that, we'll see you all after San Diego Comic Con!]

Any scans of old furry zines around?

Furry Reddit - Wed 17 Jul 2013 - 18:34

I've wanted to see what furry fandom culture was like in the pre internet days, back before the pornification of the fandom. Are there any scans of these?

I'm sure old school fans will know what I'm talking about - they were called "funny animals" or "anthropomorphics", I think.

LondonFurs: The Fursuit of Happiness - TimeOut London Article

Furries In The Media - Wed 17 Jul 2013 - 17:41
Published today in TimeOut London is an article on the LondonFurs by the aptly named Alix Fox. Apparently the original article was more balanced in terms of explaining not all furs fursuit but seems the published edit focused on the fursuiting side.



MikePaws scanned an uploaded a copy of the article to read which I've re-uploaded here. And there's some more photos on the TimeOut London website.

Episode 225 - The Runback

Southpaws - Wed 17 Jul 2013 - 13:42
This week on Knotcast, Fuzz and Savrin are back in action after an unexpectedly long hiatus. Fuzz having been at Anthrocon and Savrin having been through quite the medical ordeal in the process of having weight loss surgery. Fair warning, we do discuss Savrin’s surgery for a good while, so if medical stuff squicks you might want to scroll ahead some. We also answer emails about long distance relationships, being ‘damaged goods’, and actually get a couple emails about fandom music. This weeks song is “Train Suplex” from the album “Final Fantasy 6: Balance And Ruin” by Danny Baranowsky. Check it out and get a free download at http://ff6.ocremix.org/ Use our coupon code “knot” at AdamEve.com for a great deal! Episode 225 - The Runback
