The Return of Captain Carrot — Sort Of…

In-Fur-Nation - Tue 11 Dec 2012 - 16:55

Our thanks (we think) to EbonyLeopard for pointing this out to us…  In keeping with the current “New 52″ line of re-boots for venerable comic book stories and characters, DC Comics brings us… Captain K’Rot. Yep, it’s Captain Carrot, the 1982 super-funny-animal creation of Roy Thomas and Scott Shaw!, re-imagined as “a borderline psychotic, booze swilling, whore-mongering rabbit” for the new science fiction comic book series Threshold (from Keith Giffen and Tom Raney). Some are saying this is all inspired by the new (and popular) kick-ass version of Rocket Raccoon that has been appearing in Marvel Comics’ Annihilation: Conquest. Others are saying it’s a re-incarnation of good old Bucky O’Hare, created by Larry Hama and Mike Golden back in the 1980′s. Either way, you can decide for yourself. Threshold hits the stands in January, and Captain K’Rot makes his first appearance in issue #3 in March. Read more about it at Comics Alliance, too.

Awkward questions about Furries.

Furry Reddit - Tue 11 Dec 2012 - 03:25

So I was watching Taboo, and the Furries one came on. I have known about furries for awhile. I'm an anime "geek" I guess, and the act of cosplay has always interested me. I'm really a shy person, reserved and I hardly talk to anyone. But when I saw this show, seeing everyone have so much fun and not care what people thought looked wonderful. I want to do that, not right off the bat costumes and going out in public, but slowly sinking into it. I feel really nervous about the whole situation, I don't know how I would explain it to people. Though I have one friend who would be interested in it to. I was curious about the stereotypes that surround the furry community, like how some are into bestiality. I'm not into that, but I wanted to know how many furries do that sort of thing. I'm more interested in just running around and having fun. What are the general costs for costumes? Though I would like to have a costume, I'm a little worried how expensive it would be. I thought about creating my own to. Are there any websites, groups online that I can look at to get a little more information on the topic? Any help would really be appreciated. :> Sorry if I sound silly, but I think it really might be something I would like.

Edit: Thanks everyone! I really appreciate the help, you guys are all so friendly and helpful, it really warms my heart :3

Adopting a Fursona Not the Same as MPD

Ask Papabear - Tue 11 Dec 2012 - 01:09
Dearest Papabear,

As I am discovering my fursona more and more, I have been thinking.... Since my fursona is my alternate personalty does that mean I have multiple personality disorder? 

-Rissa

* * *

Dear Rissa,

Short answer is no, you do not have multiple personality disorder. MPD, also called Dissociative Identity Disorder, involves uncontrolled shifts in two or more personalities and is typically accompanied by unexplained periods of memory loss.

This is quite different from what you or I do when we adopt our fursona personalities for a little furry fun. The fursona is something you wear, like a fursuit. You can put it on or take it off at will. MPD, on the other hand, is not controlled by you. The mental illness controls you not vice versa.

When you get into your fursona’s personality, it’s a lot like being an actor or actress. It is assuming a role for play. Doing so, you can enhance or deemphasize parts of your own personality, and you can liberate yourself from inhibitions that might prevent you from acting the way you would like to is social situations.

So don’t worry, Rissa, you’re fine!

Hugs,

Papabear

Yarn Tail for sale.

Furry Reddit - Mon 10 Dec 2012 - 16:35

I have one premade yarn tail left. I'd like to sell it before the end of the year so I can ship it out at the same time as the rest of my December orders.

Picture and Info Here

A custom tail this size and length would be 51 dollars not including shipping.

Since it's a premade I'm selling it for 45$ including shipping to the continental U.S. International shipping may be an additional charge.

If you are interested please send me a pm or email me at ziakiyt@gmail.com

I'm more likely to see emails before I see pms since I get email alerts on my phone. First come first serve.
