Author: Kakurady Earlier today, Pachi the Porcupine was revealed as the Toronto 2015 Pan Am Games mascot, in front of thousands of children at the annual Kids CBC Day in Toronto. CBC featured the mascot in action on their Toronto evening news. Of the six finalists, Pachi was also most-liked by the public, with over [...]

Author: crossaffliction In this issue, we have two finales; that of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arc “Krang Wars” and the series finale for Hack/Slash, which is even called “Finale.” Then, we have Rainbow Dash in her entry to the My Little Pony: Micro-Series. So, I guess, thematically, Dash’s pet Tank is a tortoise, which [...]

Back in April I went to my first Furry meetup at a skating rink where suits weren't allowed because the owners didn't wanna risk scaring any children, but tails and ears were ok. When I got there I was being my shy self, when I overheard someone ask one of the furs why he was wearing a tail and the fur responded in a way that seemed a little rude to me by answering back with a question of why she "didn't" wear one? So I have to ask, how to you respond when you are out in public, or a furry meet, when someone asks "Why are you wearing a tail?"?

Author: Higgs Raccoon It’s been seventeen and a half years since cartoonist Bill Watterson published the 3150th (and last) strip of Calvin and Hobbes, the comic about a six-year-old boy and his sardonic stuffed tiger. Since then, film director Joel Allen Schroeder envisaged a documentary about Calvin and Hobbes, and in 2007 began filming interviews [...]

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.

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!]

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.

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.
