Testing the Waters for Commissions

Furry Reddit - Thu 27 Feb 2014 - 19:09

Hey guys, I've been messing around with the idea of taking commissions while I have some time over my break coming up. I figured I'd ask around here to see if anyone had any interest whatsoever. They'd probably be fairly cheap (like $35-$40 at most).

Figured I'd ask in case I should get a price sheet together.

I pretty much draw male, but would totally be willing to try out some chicks.

if this isn't permitted here, my bad, didn't see anything in the rules

Thanks!

She's Afraid of Losing Her BF If His Dad Kicks Him Out of the House 

Ask Papabear - Thu 27 Feb 2014 - 13:58
Hey Papabear

I'm having troubles with my boyfriend at the moment. He is getting kicked out of home at the end of the month and he doesn't seem to care and if he gets kicked out of home I will not be able to see him any more. I can not leave him because I truly love him. What should I do?

He's being kicked outta home because he hasn't been able to get a job for 2 years and his dad's sick of it.... We have been together for 3 years in June. He lives half an hour’s drive from me and we have a rocky relationship but we always seem to get through stuff

Luffles from Misty (age 17)

* * *

Hi, Misty,

I’m curious why you would want to be with someone with whom you have a “rocky relationship” and who doesn’t care if he gets kicked out of his house even if that means that, for some reason, he won’t be able to see you anymore. My bear instincts are kicking in here. Is it because you don’t think you can do better? I believe the problem—at least, your problem—isn’t that your apathetic boyfriend will soon be on the streets but that you have such low self-esteem that you would want to be with him in the first place. I could be wrong, but what do you think?

One thing that I’ve learned in life is that you can’t help people who don’t want to be helped. Why is it your job to get him on track? It’s his job. You, as girlfriend, can be there to be loving and supportive in his efforts, but if he’s making no effort, then there’s nothing for you to be supportive of.

You’re 17 and I’m assuming your boyfriend is about the same age (although maybe a few years older since he’s not in school and has been unemployed for 2 years?) If he is not going to school, and he is able-bodied, he needs to get a job, even if it is just part time. One thing about companies is that if you are a young man or woman and willing to work hard for minimum wage, you can probably get some sort of work. I know that doesn't sound great, but it's better than nothing. You have to start somewhere, after all. I’m thinking his father would not have kicked him out if he thought his son were making an effort to do something with himself and that the reason for his frustration is his son isn’t trying. (Again, reading between the lines here).

This might sound like I am unsympathetic to your feelings of love, but I do understand that love has no reason. We often love people who are not really great for us, and we stick by them no matter what. You do not have to “leave” your boyfriend. Tell him you are here for him to give him whatever love and support you can, but it is up to him to take you up on that offer. Let him make the next move.

Good luck,

Papabear

[Discussion]Let's talk t-shirts!

Furry Reddit - Thu 27 Feb 2014 - 10:32

So mayyyybe if you were on yesterday you caught the link I posted to a t-shirt store similar to redbubble I posted, overexcitedly. Maybe not, because I deleted it. Preview images are all gross and wonky, blech. But I arrived at the conclusion when doodling more designs that... I have absolutely no idea what other people like. Whoops. So I figured I should just, you know. Ask!

I also thought it might be a fun discussion topic! Let's talk about furry casual wear!

  1. Do you wear furry t-shirts/hoodies/clothes/etc?? why or why not?

  2. What kinds do you wear? Do you wear graphic tees? Or maybe those awesome hoodies with ears and tails on them?

  3. What kind of shirts do YOU like? Funny ones, cute ones, ones with killer art?

I myself have to many shirts already. >~> I love-love-love those animal hoodies though. Ooh, and I'm an artist, so I personally lean towards really really pretty art over anything else.

//edit

I ran over to our printers and turns out I can print up to 15inches wide by 20 inches tall. And I can print on the back of shirts! So i think I'm gonna make some shirts with like, animal tails or wings on the back, tails obviously going up and wings obviously folded. What kind of tails do you think are good ideas? Def cat, fox, wolf,red panda.... feathered wings and dragon wings... hmmmm???

Connie Sun’s comics explore projections we place on animals

Fursday - Reading List - Thu 27 Feb 2014 - 04:00

There are different ways to think about animals. One way is to imagine them totally separate, not attaching to us, ever. "They are not brethren," wrote the great naturalist Henry Beston, "they are not underlings. They are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time." Animals and people, Beston thought, live in their own worlds while sharing the same streets, meadows, skies, homes. We mingle, but the gap between us is not crossable.

Or, if you like, you can think of animals as pretend friends. You can tiptoe closer in, knowing full well they are not us, but still talk to them, share with them, give them a hug because (whatever is really going on) it feels good.

We have a long fascination and relationship with animals. We constantly project ourselves onto animals, all the while knowing deep down they not us. The article also features some thoughtful inner identity and coming of age comics by Connie Sun.

What happened to the last of 3 animals

Fursday - Reading List - Thu 27 Feb 2014 - 04:00

Despite human activity still driving animals to extinction, it feels like our ancestors were more callous in their attitudes towards conservation. Take for example the story of the last thylacine; commonly known as the Tasmanian tigers for its distinctive stripes running across its lower spine and for its last remaining habitat being the island of Tasmania. Humanity is not solely to blame for their demise; the population was already on the wane by the time the British settled on the Australian continent, but they contributed their part through government sponsored culling.

What is thought to be the last thylacine was captured in 1933. Robert Krulwich writes:

Benjamin (that's what "he" was called; his sex is still being debated) spent his final days in the Hobart zoo in a wire-topped cage, exposed to the weather, protected by a solitary tree that was not yet in leaf. It was early spring in Australia, and the weather very changeable, writes MacKinnon: "[N]ighttime temperatures dropped below freezing and soared as high as 108 degrees Fahrenheit by day. One witness reported hearing the [tiger's] ululating cry of distress. It died in the night on Sept. 7, 1936."

And the body? This time, this Last One was not preserved. Benjamin's corpse, says MacKinnon, "was apparently thrown away."

An undignified end.
