I thought of the possibility of this while whipping up a few last night but thought it would be...rude (?) to post them here.

Edit: Well if you're curious /r/adoptafurry exists now.

Dear Papabear,

I've recently decided to stop letting myself get upset over not going to college immediately after high school, and pursue a degree in film, and am hoping to start by the fall of 2015. The universities I've looked into and have an interest in attending require two things: an SAT/ACT score and some sort of college prep courses. The SAT/ACT is a fairly simple matter of getting a good grade, however, the required college prep course is another, often frustrating matter. It seems no matter where I look, instead of getting answers I get pointed to alternatives (community colleges, night school, etc.) that don't offer the courses I'm looking for, or useless banter about good schools for nontraditional students. I don't know how I'm going to find these college prep courses I need to get myself where I want to be, and oftentimes I feel ready to tear my hair out. Do you have any advice that could possibly help me?

Dear Zeb,

It’s super you’re planning to further your education, and cool that you are not putting unnecessary pressure on yourself to rush into it if you’re not ready.

Unfortunately, yours is a case in which a little prior planning would have avoided the difficulties you currently find yourself in. I surmise that when you were in high school you weren’t thinking of going on to college so you didn’t take college prep courses. High school is definitely the time to do that, not after you graduate.

Before you put the cart before the horse and start taking college prep courses somewhere without really knowing what you need, start by selecting the college or university you wish to attend. Or select two or three. Contact the academic advisor at the college and set up an appointment, explaining your situation and asking what courses you need and how best to take them. Also, ask if they require an SAT or ACT. Some colleges prefer one over the other, and some colleges don’t require them at all (oh, make sure the college or university is fully accredited, of course). 

Oftentimes, if a college feels you need a couple more classes under your belt, they might partner with a nearby community college, ensuring that your credits are fully transferable. You might, then, take a light load of courses at a community college this year and then enroll in your selected college in 2015. Furthermore, some colleges offer some, shall we say, “make-up” courses at their campuses.

Don’t go it alone, trying to figure out by yourself what you need to ensure a successful matriculation at college. Consult with an advisor who will be able to steer you in the right direction.

Good luck,

Papabear

For people like us, the internet is an almost essential medium of communication, as there aren't really any other ways to make a big group from all over the Earth gather to one easily-accessible place, except for some kind of cons, but they aren't accessible for all. This raised a question in my head, has anyone met a person who is a furry, without meeting them on the internet first etc.? Did something special happen? I'm curious.

I've got a friend I've met in school, who I suspect is a furry aswell, as I've seen her wear wolf ears and a tail to school, and we share a common interest in wolves. I was quite surprised to note this, as Finland, where I live, has a relatively small population compared to other countries, and I happen to come from a small town too. What are the chances to find two furries in a 12 000-people town, especially when people don't tend to stick out very much here? It's quite nice, when I think of it.

Has something happened? Well, nothing special has happened, at least this far. We're friends, we talk about this and that, we're going to take an awesome course next year in school together, but we've never come to discuss furries in any way. I'm a bit careful with the fact that I'm one. Time will tell what will happen...

So, how is it in other parts of the world, have you met anyone just like that?

Hi fellow furs! First off, sorry if you see too many of these posts, but I was just curious. Are there any of you in New York? Not to meet up or anything lol I'm just wondering.

So I'm asking this because I'm only turned on by gay furry/yiff art, which means I've actually never been turned on by someone "real". It has been bothering me for a while, because I don't know how I'll find love, if I ever do. I'm aware this is only a small part of a relationship, but still an important one.

People not attracted by humans, did you ever find love? If so, how did it happen?

Did you think that we wouldn't have anything to say about Godzilla? Well, we do -- the two of us who saw it anyways. Warning: We talk openly about all aspects of the film, so if you haven't seen it yet and are concerned about spoilers, then you best just not play this one, as that's pretty much all this episode is. Don't worry, we'll have another full episode (that the panda has been sitting on to keep it warm until it's ready to hatch) available real soon! Godzillacast - WARNING: SPOILERS (2014-05-20)

I'm looking to commission a custom yarn tail somewhere between 18 and 24 inches long with 3 colors and was wondering if anyone has any experience with and can recommend quality tail makers that aren't too expensive. I don't really want to spend more than $40, but I'm fairly flexible with price.

Thanks!

I'm around 6' tall, and I'm looking for a bushy and long tail (but not excessive/huge or wolflike), but I don't know about a shape that would be ideal or natural. I want it to go just beneath my kneecaps, so that's measurements I could do, but any help would be wonderful. Thanks <3

How’s it going, #GenXYZ?

We have a ton of exciting updates for you as we’ve been plugging away here at the XYZ headquarters, gearing up for the June 2 global launch of .xyz. Things are picking up at lightening speeds as the folks at VentureBeat featured us as the new alternative to .com, and major brands like Facebook, Google, WordPress, and Chanel all snatched their .xyzs. More brands are following these early adopters, just showing how fast our #GenXYZ community is already growing!

If you’re getting antsy, take advantage of the .xyz Landrush phase.
With only hours left in the brand-exclusive Sunrise period, .xyz will be shifting into the Landrush phase, where brands and individuals can secure premium .xyz domain names before the general public. What kinds of cool .xyz names are up for grabs? Here’s a glimpse of a few of the awesome .xyz domain names that you could be the proud owner of, starting May 20:

-awesome.xyz
-chinese.xyz
-ecommerce.xyz
-entrepreneur.xyz
-exclusive.xyz
-hollywood.xyz
-skiing.xyz
-top10.xyz

Fourth ever .xyz website: dating.xyz
On another note. Is anyone out there dating? Or spy fans? We’re proud to introduce the fourth ever .xyz website – dating.xyz! Why dating.xyz? And spies…? Our UK readers might have already seen the 123-reg TV ads and are in the know. If not, be sure to keep an eye out for some awesome new promos on the tube (if you’re in the UK) – or just jump the gun and watch the clip below – and it will soon all make perfect sense. Don’t forget to have some fun with our spy name generator.

Call dibs on that .xyz domain name you’ve been eyeing.
Back to business. On top of premium Landrush registrations, you can pre-register your favorite .xyz domain names right now (think of it as calling dibs on the .xyz you want at the lowest, ~$10 general availability price) through retailers like GoDaddy, Network Solutions, 123-Reg, and Name.com. Come launch date on June 2, these fine folks will try their best and hardest to secure the .xyz domain name you pre-registered. Fret not – if they happen to let it slip, you will get a full refund (but still might have a little residual summertime sadness from losing that .xyz you were eyeing).

Everyone is invited! Join us in a live webinar.
As many of you know, our CEO Daniel Negari is the youngest registry operator at just 28 years old. Despite his young age, Daniel is a veteran investor who has done over $100 million in domain name transactions. He will be sharing his extensive knowledge of the domain name industry in a webinar this Wednesday, discussing everything from the value and challenges of new domain extensions, to pro tips on how to select a winning new TLD from the crowd.

Ascio presents: New gTLDs: Finding winners amongst the chaos
Featuring .xyz & .College CEO Daniel Negari

Join the conversation and RSVP now

I think that just about covers (almost) everything we’ve been up to. We still have some exciting things cooking up for you #GenXYZ, so be sure to follow us on Twitter @xyz, Facebook, or Instagram for the most up-to-date .xyz news.

With our global launch just right around the corner, you’ll soon be seeing more .xyz domain names in that navigation bar of yours. What will you do with your .xyz? If you’re willing to share some of your crazy/amazing ideas (we won’t steal them, maybe) be sure to use #GenXYZ and tag us on the social media of your choice. If not, we can’t wait to see them once they’re live!
