Previously Posted Furry Musician in a bind. Taking music commissions to try and avoid the streets and starvation for his entire family.

Furry Reddit - Thu 9 Aug 2012 - 08:12

So a couple weeks ago I posted a link to this artist's new album. You folks seemed to receive it well, so I hoped perhaps posting this here as well might help him out a bit. It appears he's offering music commissions along with just accepting anything people are willing to give him to survive. Please at least just give it a read and send him your best if nothing else.

Furry Reddit - Thu 9 Aug 2012 - 03:08

Or is anyone else sick to fucking death of (IWTL to be a cock slave) posts on here... that and Who's the sexiest furs out there? bullshit. It is bad enough when I try to use my job on my resume and I for sure get googled. "ohh, it says here that Mr.Slidewolf helps raise money for military animals and their handlers,... lets just google some info to verif....HOLY FUCK!!! BURN THE FUCKING RESUME!!!!!!!

*note I don't have "I'm A FURRY HUUR DURR" on my job resume I am just saying google image search the name of something reputable online and it for sure will come back with something horrible..because well...its google

So I don't know what exactly I want to get across here...maybe just SHUT THE FUCK UP, if you have to take pictures of a 8' long dragon dildo up your ass...don't tag it "FURRY"..try instead..."hey look at me violate my own asshole" and leave the Furry out of it....Just saying =)

Have a shiny fucking day! <3 ~slide

When is someone considered a furry?

Furry Reddit - Wed 8 Aug 2012 - 20:49

I guess you could say I'm a questioning furry, and I really don't know if you can really consider me a furry per se...

I've realized how similar the MLP fandom is to the furry fandom.

Furry Reddit - Wed 8 Aug 2012 - 15:36

So recently Jerry Springer tweeted that he's looking for bronies. I thought he didn't have a show? Anyway, response has been the obvious "It's a trap!" from everyone from the brony side, including Tara Strong (a voice actress from the show). Why is it a trap? Well you should know already, being furries, and how the media just loves to expose the "dark seedy underbelly" of everything, ever. But a more real reason would have been because Howard Stern recently had one of his dudes go to a bronycon and straight up ask attendees if they fap to pony porn (clop) and which pony is their favorite that they fapped to the most. Howard actually made a decent effort to explain "clopping" and "plot" but obviously the only reason was to just go EW GROSS LOL CREEPY LOSER VIRGINS ala Rush Limbaugh when spoke about FC05.

So basically these kinds of things get comments from the peanut gallery (ie, non-bronies) about how the fandom is just like the furry fandom, with responses from other bronies stating how they are nothing alike. I disagreed, but didn't know why at the time. Today, when I saw the same assertion that furries and bronies are completely different I ended up posting the following

They're pretty similar, fandom wise. So obviously there's cons, and ponysuits, and people creating their own characters and getting art and writing stories of them, and referring to their friends by their OC name, and being the punching bag of the internet, and "X pride" and "coming out" stories. But really the most similar, is the fact we have adults who really like what is perceived to be childish things. Anthro animals are historically associated with child-friendly things (Disney movies, vidya games). So when mass media gets wind that there are adults that really really like these "kiddie" things, they take interest. Then they hear about porn drawn of these characters, and custom plushies (ohhai lyra), and $1000 custom suits with special holes in them, then they get really interested.

I've been a furry for long enough to have this stuff not surprise me when I see bronydom going through the same motions. Cons? Fanfic? risque fanfic? XXX fanfic? Artists with "fame"? Bragging how you got a commission from a famous artist? Pony suits where half the comments are disparaging and half supportive? Howard Stern et al asking adults personal and invasive questions about their sex life, with people being candid cause they don't give a shit and are comfortable with themselves? Yea, they're pretty much fuckin mirrors. Expect drama when Tyra Banks gets a brony on the show to talk about how he faps to clop and then we'll see how loving and tolerant the fandom is.

How come anime cons get a free pass? How come media never focuses on hentai, shota, and lolicon? They're about as integral to that fandom as clop and yiff are to their respective fandoms. (As in, it's completely debatable and a extremely controversial thing that polarizes their fandoms.)

So I sound a bit sour and cynical (a cynical raccoon? NO WAY) but I feel like there are furries and bronies who aren't into the adult stuff that just think it will go away if they pretend it doesn't exist.

So what do you guys think?

tl;dr Seeing the MLP fandom go through the same motions as the furry fandom and watching bronies vehemently deny it is really fun.

Xiath:  Welcome back to our podcast. Today we will be going back to basics

We decided to do a ‘furry 101′ episode that ‘quickly’ runs down some information that new furs may ask. Everything from defining words someone may hear around the fandom, to how to do comissions. This episode isn’t meant to be a deep one, but rather an informational one.

If you are a new fur, or have information you would like to give to new furs, please contact us at listenermail@fursonapod.com. I would love to help new furs out as much as possible and be a one stop shop for the basics that a new fur needs. So we would appreciate your help.

Hope you enjoy this episode!

How furry are your furries?

Furry Reddit - Wed 8 Aug 2012 - 12:35

Are they just humans covered in fur? Or feral creatures in packs? Maybe something in between? How do they look? Digitgrade feet? Plantigrade? Long tails? Or short to keep the out of the way? Do herbivores eat meat? Do carnivores eat salads? Pictures to describe appearances can be used. But How do they act?

My gallery pretty much sums up how they look.As for how they act. meat eaters live as hunters to catch and fight untamable monsters for food. Vegetarians only have to farm, but they can hunt as well. Living in a world that has modern cities right next to magical undersea kingdoms and floating islands. Although they act mostly human. They interpret animal instincts into their lives.EX. Wolf families tend to work and live together as a pack. Sense of smell and hearing helps out a lot in hunting. Cross-species are impossible without magic.

I could go on forever with this. but I want to read what you think of furries.
