New to the fandom. ^.=.^

Furry Reddit - Sat 30 May 2015 - 06:48

Hi I'm a sixteen year old scalie and I am new to the fandom. So the reason I'm posting to reddit is because I live in Alaska and don't know any furries. If anyone has any advice on how to find local furs it would be very helpful. Here is a link to my DA if anyone wants to see my fursona http://bassdragon09.deviantart.com/art/Demitri-the-Alaskan-dragon-512726852?ga_submit_new=10%253A1432985199&ga_type=edit&ga_changes=1

Anybody have any good music to listen too while going about my day?

Furry Reddit - Sat 30 May 2015 - 04:45

I like most stuff I guess, I haven't ever really found once specific genre that I love yet though. I wan't to get you people's opinions on your favorite songs. Who knows, maybe you'll end up converting me to be a fan of your favorite band :3.

Prolly long ramble thread, come talk wit me~

Furry Reddit - Sat 30 May 2015 - 02:47

Hiya evrryfur, I wanted to start off by saying that this sub is one of the best I've been a part of. Like, seriously. I always feel welcome to voice my opinions, ask questions, ask for advice, make jokes, everything. I really value this as a place where I can come to be myself, with no holds barred, and be among people that understand me and what I might be going through. So I guess I kinda wanted to get on here and ramble about how.....difficult? my life is right now. Sure, it may be nowhere near as difficult as other peoples' situations, but it's hard for me in its way. It's hard being openly gay AND furry in Arkansas, a famously conservative state that gets crazies from neighboring Texas and Oklahoma both. I'm the only out person of any other non-heterosexual orientation among my peers, and it really sucks. The sense that I'm alone is so real, and it feels hopeless at times. I've been binge watching Glee again, and I totally sympathize with Kurt (for those that haven't watched, he's the only openly gay person in town, as far as I can rm, and he's hopelessly chasing straight guys, in the vain hope that he'll be able to seduce on of them). Now, my family and friends are accepting of me, they don't see me any differently at all. If anything, I'm the most fabulous queen up in here. But I can't shake the feeling that among all this support, I am actually alone. I don't really have anyone to sit down and talk with about the struggles I'm going through. Add on to all of this the fact that I'm only 18, paler than Casper, and an outspoken atheist and humanist in the bible belt, and being a burgeoning furry, and you have a horribly confused young guy that can't seem to align all the shit in his life. I apologize if it seems like I'm complaining, or if I sound naive, but idk. I was laying in bed (it's 2:40 am) with this sort of nagging sense in the back of my brain that was telling me I need to sort of lay everything out so I can try make sense of it all, so here I am. Rambling. I appreciate any comments, advice, war stories, different POV's, or just general conversation. Good old fashioned encouragement would be good too :) I love all you fuzz butts, i'ma shuddup now, and hopefully fall asleep to the Dark Souls soundtrack. If that fails, then I'll be here all night if anyone wants to talk

Ask me absolutely any question and I will answer 100% truthfully (extremely bored)

Furry Reddit - Sat 30 May 2015 - 02:03

It can be furry related or it can be something else. I will try to answer every single one. There's no ending, I will keep answering the questions even if they're asked a month from now

I'll probably end up regretting this.

Have mercy.

Marked NSFW just in case.

Has you ever drawn *yourself* as a furry?

Furry Reddit - Sat 30 May 2015 - 01:56

Not your fursona, but the visual/emotional translation of you as a furry -- as in something that directly resembles you, and isn't an optimization of your traits.

Edit: If you haven't, might as well give it a quick shot here ;3 (if you want). I'll post what I have later today.

It Followed Him Home…?

In-Fur-Nation - Sat 30 May 2015 - 01:54

Back when your humble ed-otter was a kid, there was a well-known book called The Enormous Egg by Oliver Butterworth. Well now author David Fulk has traveled down a similar road perhaps with his first novel for young readers, Raising Rufus. “Martin Tinker, a shy, studious eleven-year-old, has his small-town world turned upside down when he discovers an ancient, frozen egg in a quarry?and when it thaws and hatches, he finds himself surrogate mom to a baby T. rex! Because of its voracious appetite for meat and tendency to GROW at an alarming rate, it gets harder and harder for Martin and his friend Audrey to keep it hidden from the world. Can Martin discover new reserves of strength to save his outlandish pet?or the town?from a very grim fate?” We’ll soon find out. Raising Rufus is available now in hardcover from Delacorte Books.
