PC Master Race Furs?
Terrible, overused meme aside, I did just finish putting together my first full PC build, and was wondering what other furs are running :D
I've got a Gigabyte 990FXA-UMD3 with an AMD FX-9370 4.4Ghz 8 core processor and a MSI R9 380 graphics card, all cooled by Corsair Blue LED fans and a Hydro H60 Liquid cooling system, and I store all my Yiff on a simple 2TB HDD with 16GB of Corsair Vengeance memory, all of this is then jam-packed into a full Corsair 760T White Graphite Tower.
So everyfur, post your builds if you want. I'm enjoying nerding out over parts and comparing....."case" sizes.

So... I'm experimenting with my Kaijusona... thoughts? (Minor "Pacific Rim" spoilers. And fan made story... kinda.)
Niko's Pump Up Playlist #2: We Are All Made of Stars
Moby - "We Are All Made of Stars"
So in an effort to get myself downvoted even more, here's another super awesome song that for some reason furries keep popping in my head when listening to it. I dunno what it is, I guess it's just that idea of all of us coming together. Yeah, we do "fall apart" (We have differences, people enter and leave the fandom, people pass away, and so on). But still, there's that whole "no one can stop us now - 'cause we are all made of stars".
That last bit references the idea that we are all space stuff - stardust essentially. We are all made from dust, and well, we all still manage to come together. And if we all come together and put our heads together and keep going we'll become something great.
I mean yeah, our fandom has its issues. We have block heads, we've had crooks, we've had drama, but we're still one awesome community that knows how to party and have a good time. We're still a community that centers around something we all love. And despite all the haters and problems, we're still here.
So let's keep on being what we love. Let's keep on bringing new people. Let's keep on coming together. 'Cause we are all literally made of stars.
If you're wondering what the first one was, it was Innuendo by Queen.

Stress over having to manage too many chats at once
While I appreciate and continue to always appreciate people talking to me, a huge change from many months ago, when barely anyone did. I'm finding myself constantly being buried alive in messages to a point were I just can't concentrate on a conversation. It's frustrating because I want to talk to everyone I talk to, but can't concentrate on a conversation due to wanting to respond as fast as possible. I always felt, that if I don't respond quickly enough, people might think I'm deliberately ignoring them. In a sense, I basically have an anxiety in losing friends because they felt like I was ignoring them, when in fact I just feel overwhelmed.
What should I do?

Regarding the recent "Public Health Warning" posts
Within the past 24 hours, there have been posts on /r/furry claiming that two attendees of the upcoming Eurofurence convention in Berlin plan to intentionally spread HIV through unprotected sex. A chart tracking their potential sexual network labeled with names was provided with this. These claims were presented with no real evidence, and at least one person mentioned within the chart stated that the asserted associations related to them were false. We were conflicted in how we should deal what could be a very serious situation, but have resolved that removing these posts and releasing this statement ourselves would be the best course of action. We have these things to say:
First of all, whether you're going to a convention or not, be safe. Be smart and use protection. Know the facts on HIV and other STDs/STIs, and do not assume that a stranger will tell the truth about their sexual past or condition. Also know that there are many laws worldwide criminalizing the transmission of HIV, whether it be intentional or otherwise (it is illegal in Germany).
Sharing anyone's personal information (including actual names) is expressly prohibited by Reddit's administration and will result in account deletion.
While topics like this are undeniably important, we also take slander very seriously. We are discussing the addition of a rule against potentially slanderous content (it will likely be added to rule six), which would make incidences like this much more cut-and-dry in the future.
Our decision to remove these posts is in no way whatsoever meant to obscure, endorse or deny the seriousness sexual irresponsibility, or to imply that this topic is not "nice enough" to be shared here. These posts were removed for these two reasons only: one, because they violated Reddit's rules on disclosing personal information, and two, were proven to be at least partially slanderous. We are very sorry to anyone who was wrongfully accused by these posts and hope that the truth, whatever it may be, does come to light. Until then, posts sharing or reiterating the content in question will be subject to removal without warning.
Thank you for understanding. Stay fuzzy and stay safe everyone!

Any of you guys interested in custom plastic charms for keychains/jewelry/phone charms/zipper pulls/badges/ect?
So I'm a starving artist and I was thinking about doing commissions to help me out a little bit. Buying regular art seems boring to me, so I thought I would do something more interesting to step up my game. I know how to make cute little plastic charms that can be used in all sorts of things such as charm bracelets, earrings, phone charms, keychains, ect. They could be designed with anything on them, your fursona, letters, or words, anything that I can draw. Options are endless since I can draw a lot of shit. They are like these, to give you an idea: http://pre01.deviantart.net/1919/th/pre/i/2013/096/d/2/ghibli_plastic_charm_keychains_by_pikaira-d60om9l.jpg
I was thinking that they would start at ~7-10 USD a pop for the little ones, and go up from there, depending how expensive the stuff that they are being attached to, such as metal chains and keyrings. Before I go out and buy a bunch of materials though, I want to know if this is a stupid idea or not, or if anyone would even want to buy any.
Thank you for the feedback!

Culturally F'd: Conventions and Furry Roommates
I just realized...I can't think of a single female anthro mascot for a product.
I mean, we have everything from Fox plumbing, to Cookiekrisp, to trix rabbit and Tony the tiger; all male.
Can you guys think of any normal brands with female (anthro) mascots?
