Is there a good site for finding local cons? I'm in Hawaii, and googling is just giving me Hawaiian-themed cons. :<
It's hard to find anything here with all the theme stuff competing for search engine relevance. Anyone have a good resource?

Anthropomorphics Reading List: November 17 update
Brit Erroneously Considers Himself Useless
I'm stuck in a bit of a tricky situation regarding my education and its driving me mad.
I train as a mechanic for a good part of my school time and if I was to assess how good I was at it, I would say I was mediocre, not too shabby, but nothing to write home about. Thing is, my mother believes that I am superb at it and that I can do it better than anyone else. Which I can't.
I went to do some work experience, I do it once a fortnight and apparently they think I'm very good as well.
I am a sort of glass-half-empty kinda guy when it comes to myself and my traits and abilities, so perhaps my opinion is twisted, but I generally am not that good at it. Most of the other kids in my class can tear breaks down and rebuild them about 4x faster and more efficiently than I can. But I am very good at the theory stuff, which isn't the most use in the real world. My only other strength over the others is that they’re all nasty bulling arsehole's and I like to think I'm not :P.
Should I stop thinking I'm bad at it and accept that people think I'm good and then run the risk of getting a job off other people’s merits and being rubbish, or just tell my mum I'm useless, even though I might just think I'm rubbish, but not be?
Thanks for any help.

Welcome back, Fred,
In a world where people seem very eager and quick to tell others that they suck, when you hear the opposite then you should take that as a good indication that you do not suck. Now, if it was just your mother praising you, then I could see why you might have some doubt, since mother’s always think highly of their children (well, most do). But you said that the place where you went to get some work experience also had people who felt you were good at your job, so I would run with that opinion.
You are being too self-critical. You know it, too, which is why you call yourself a glass-half-empty person.
So some of your peers can do things faster, so what? Faster doesn’t always mean better. I can get a McDonald’s burger pretty quickly, but it tastes like crap. I would rather wait 20 minutes to get a delicious burger from my favorite restaurant in Palm Springs than a mealy piece of meat injected with chemicals from New Jersey so it vaguely tastes like beef between overly processed buns.
You’re good at theory? Well, perhaps you could become a teacher yourself someday, and that definitely has value. Or, perhaps you should continue your interest in things mechanical and consider studying engineering of some type, or maybe become a CAD/CAM designer. Don’t sell the powers of analytical ability short. This ability of yours might mean you are a little slower repairing a car’s breaks, but could lead to something greater than working in a service shop.
And you’re not a “bullying arsehole”? Well, bravo! There are far too many of those in the world and it’s good to find a person who is genuinely not an arse. That has value, as well.
To summarize: 1) people think you’re good at what you do, 2) you excel at theory, which is a skill that can be applied to more advanced types of work, and 3) you’re not an arsehole.
For God’s sake, don’t tell you’re mom you’re useless rubbish. You’re not. You’ve got a lot going for you. All that is holding you back is your bad self-esteem. Don't get in the way of your own success.

Episode 11.5 (2013-11-18)
Love Triangle Is Like a Crumbling Edifice
So I finished the Heroin Diaries the other day
As an appreciator of furry art, who should I be watching? Which artists do you think have potential, and which artists are just flat out amazing? XD
My inner art-whore instincts have really been taking over lately, and I want to expand my interests in the artists I've been missing out on. I watch quite a few people already, but I know that there are many more people out there with exceptional skills. Who do you think deserves recognition for their potential or ability?
Please share and discuss. -^
No smutt peddlers, please, unless it's artistic and tasteful. This isn't r/yiff. Lol XD

Proof that furries are mentally unstable people
Furhouse chat looking for some friendly, fun-loving furs to join us :)
Hi there! We have a small community chatroom used for roleplaying (both sexual and nonsexual), chatting, hanging out, and just having fun! We are looking for new members! the link for the chat can be found after our brief list of rules, please read them! :) the rules are as follows:
- Members must be 18 years or older.
- Be respectful of your fellow housemates
- You may only have one character in the chat at a time.
- No drama-queens/drama whoring.
- Obviously; no spamming or trolling
- We always have one or more moderator(s) on to enforce these rules if needs be.
Thanks for taking the time to read our rules :) here is the link to the chatroom (if on a mobile device: use this link)
We are hoping to find members who want to make friends and have fun without starting drama. We are looking for members of all fur/scale types, genders, and orientations. Our population is, as yet, fairly small. We consist of 30-35 regular visitors however our visiting hours are staggered so that there's generally only a small handful of people online at the same time during "off peak" hours. The fandom being what it is, we have many gamers in our ranks as well as a few musicians, writers and graphic artists. Our room is available to all users, although with the content being sexual in nature we request that only users ages 18 and over join up. We have a small team of moderators who enforce our sparing list of rules.
As an aside- If you are engaging in yiff or a discussion/argument that is disruptive to the group as a whole you may be asked to enter a separate room. Asking you to move to another room is not meant as a sign of disrespect or personal issue, just a measure to keep the room as a fun place for everyone. So please stop by and give us a visit sometime! Thanks for reading

Academic writing about Furries? (Looking for sources)
Does anyone know of any scholars writing about furries? I'm trying to write an essay. It's for a comparative religious ritual course at my university, and though I don't have a thesis yet, I feel a strong argument could be made in regards to ritual and furry conventions, but I need credible sources. Even just an account of what happens at furry conventions, or perhaps statistics? Thanks for the help!
Here's what I found so far if anyone is interested:

Hi, i'm Saleuthe [Introduction of Sorts]
As the post says, this is an introduction of sorts. Kinda using this as a way to get myself out there as a writer. been stuck in the backstreets of FA for a while, and being inactive for some time, not a lot of people know about me.
After drifting though several FA accounts, and struggling to find my furry identity for a few years, i finally got everything in order and have all sorts of plans. Time to come out of the closet! [ literally, and figuratively ;) ]
Firstly, My main Fursona, Saleuthe: Snow leopard (Plain white/black combo thing).
Secondly, my other Fursona, Dex: Mouse/Shrew mix (White/Black as well)
They're kind of plain, but whatever. Color dosen't really matter to me that much.
Anyways, I'm not an artist, so you won't see too many pics of my fursona, or other characters.
HOWEVER: I am a writer, and i'll be posting that stuff whenever i finish them; to FA and here. i'm sort of looking for requests on stuff to write, not that i can't come up with my own ideas; i just like writing things for people. Also, seeing as i have little to nothing posted, this will help my collective works grow.
So yeah, you can leave a message on either of the FA's or here. As long as it's not to complicated, i'll consider writing it. My acc. for Saleuthe has nothing posted yet, so be patient. please note that one acc. is STRICTLY for NSFW works. use your filters pl0x.
So here are the links:
Anomynide-Dex [AEDX](18+): http://www.furaffinity.net/user/anomynide/
Saleuthe: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/saleuthe
Anyways, looking forward to the furture and writing for all you lovely furs.
