FurIdaho 2012 -- aka. "We did it live"
General | Posted 13 years ago... it was a triumph...
We all expect first-year cons to have a few glitches, this one was no different; there was plenty of technical problems we are going to need to work out for next year. What really matters, though, is how you transcend those technical problems. Thanks to our awesome array of guests coming up to help run events, (and bringing along a bunch of fans with them) we were able to create a con that was lively and enjoyable.
I had fun running the one panel I did (A charcoal drawing demo) and performing with my band Red Rocket (Though just about everything that could have gone wrong with my rig DID, haha!). I will definitely be back to do both of these again next year. With a little tightening of our event schedule, we could easily go from a "fantastic first-year con" -- as I have been hearing from just about everyone who attended -- to a fantastic con in general. The staff was fantastic, security team was in top form. The attendees (save for one incident that I kind of expected) were themselves really awesome.
The dance was a blast, a buddy of mine, househead played, and the time I got to see before I crashed (there was drinking involved, children), was pretty awesome.
Oh, I forgot the best part. We managed to get over 250 attendees at our convention which made us Idaho's second-largest first-year convention, coming just barely short of Fandemonium -- in spite of naysayer, yes, naysayer. You know who you are. (This means, that I did my job as marketing manager) :3
All in all, it was a fun, hectic time, and this only puts us in line for an incredible second year. Thank you to everyone who was involved. Time to get ready to kick ass and chew bubblegum (minus the gum) at FurIdaho 2013!

Red Rocket Performing at FurIdaho
General | Posted 13 years agoTime for me to make an announcement: my band Red Rocket, consisting of
,
, my brother, and myself, will be playing on Saturday, 7pm at
this week. We'll be playing a number of our favorite rock tunes. Come out and see us, we'll have a blast.
(We're listed in the program as YMB or "You Mad Bro", because Red Rocket was considered "Inappropriate" -- lol)

Talk to me, Furries.
General | Posted 14 years agoAdd me on MSN or something!
Are you happy now?
General | Posted 14 years agoYes you,
cassidysweetshop. I posted new things so you no longer have to look at me taking it in the ass every time you visit my page. Actually, never mind, every time you visit my page you have to see it TWICE. Ha.
Seventeen new posts. Most I've done in a long time.

Graduating
General | Posted 14 years agoI haven't had any activity worth nothing on FurAffinity for quite a while now. To put it simply, I've been busy. More than busy, I have been overworked; between my job and a psychotic Stats teacher (the one that focuses on the mathematical side, not the cushy engineer version), I have really had no time to work on anything. For the longest time I had projected failing the class, but I manage to pull out some last minute stops and ended up launching my grade into a passing range (probably at the distaste of my professor because he clearly did not like me, I even think he intentionally made my final grade lower than it should be). This allowed me to finish my final semester in college with a 3.00 gpa, giving me a 3.79 overall. I'm not graduating this semester because I changed my graduation date for fear of failing, but I am ending my career at Boise State with Magna Cum Laude.
Fuck Yes.
Fuck Yes.
Things I learned at Rainfurrest
General | Posted 14 years ago(1) Do not party on Friday if you want to do anything Saturday,
(2) When giving directions in Seattle, use the word "correct" instead of "right", otherwise your drive turns into an Abbott and Costello act,
(3) Acting like a fan of My Little Pony can sometimes get you free fried chicken,
(4) Girls can pee in urinals if they really want to
(5)
drewfustehfox is a total badass,
(6) Do not pick up Chapstick off of the ground unless you are certain you dropped yours.
It was great seeing all the people I met there. For my first furry con two and a half year, I has an absolute blast.

Rainfurrest!
General | Posted 14 years agoLooks like I'm going to my first out-of-state convention in years.
simonheron and I are leaving on Thursday afternoon and should be in at the second day of the con, on Friday. Look out for the two people wearing
FurIdaho shirts, that would be us. We're promoting FurIdaho for the duration of the con!

General | Posted 14 years agoThe Double Brothers: The Band or My First Guitar Performance
General | Posted 14 years agoOkay, so today,
scarredeyes and I decided we wanted to practice some music to maybe play at a coffee shop. Later on in the day, it had turned into a four piece deal, after we had roped our brothers into playing drums and bass. So... thus was the birth of The Double Brothers.
We practiced for approximately an hour and thirty minutes on two songs to be performed at the last open mic night of the Library Coffee House in Meridian, ID. I think we did rather swell for not knowing what the hell we were doing. This marked the first time I ever played my guitar live in front of a group of people. I'm so happy my love
simonheron came to see me (even though, it was a miscommunication, as she had other plans).

The Problem of "Anti-Drama"
General | Posted 14 years ago[Disclaimer: Despite having apparent relation to recent events, this is not in reference to any particular person, nor a criticism of any particular organization. It is simply a critique of a phenomenon I’ve observed within the fandom.]
We here -- regardless of what we claim -- are all furries in one sense of the word or another. With being a furry comes an array of social issues that are involved with the fandom. What I refer to specifically is our tendency to be associated with abnormally large amounts of of drama when compared with other fandoms. Needless to say drama can make a fandom an unpleasant place for its members.
In response to this, we see a number of "anti-drama" associations pop up, such as the Anti-Drama Llama Movement here on FA and every so often we get a journal post from a well-meaning fur calling for everyone to "get along! love each other! The furry fandom should be one big family!" While this sentiment is appealing, it is naïve. The furry fandom, as wonderfully accepting as it is (and I do love how "open" the fandom is) often finds many of its problems are caused by its laissez-faire attitude when it comes to people and situations that are detrimental to its members and its image.
Take for instance, the case of TORA: despite serving a prison sentence for lewd conduct with a 14-year old, TORA has attended cons since 2008 to present day -- even after his ban from FurAffinity in 2009 when evidence surfaced on the “drama-circulating” site lulz.net that he was having inappropriate conversation with a minor. This isn’t even a one-time example! Sibe has a reputation of stirring up problems for many furry communities and conventions, including being banned from the two largest furry conventions in the US, and having distributed pirated furry artwork. Despite his repeated offenses against members of the furry community, he has been permitted to at least one convention even after attacks on several furry organizations.
In each of these situations, the prevailing idea is that said offender did not take any action against them, therefore they should not have say in the matter. The furry fandom tends to let even illegal actions pass provided it’s not an action “against them” . To step outside that boundary -- to even make a statement to rebuke the individual and actions in question -- would to be to stir up and perpetuate “unneeded drama”. This line of thinking is blatantly flawed; if someone can potentially cause problems for members of the furry fandom, by allowing said member to continue we create more drama, rather than preventing it! In this sense, neutrality is often mistakenly considered to be “anti-drama”.
An issue I notice in local-area furry social circles is that there are members that often cause some form of harm to the other members, and in spite of continuing abuse, the local furry group will tend to accept it rather than speak out to prevent “upsetting the group”. Once again, status-quo is causing more harm to the whole than any sort of action to oust the offending furry ever would!
That isn’t to say I see all furry organizations to be inactive. In fact, here at FA, I have an admiration for Dragoneer for speaking out and rebuking furries who have caused harm to the fandom’s image, or its members (in particular his actions taken against Allan -- who had many complaints against him for abusing well-meaning charity -- and TORA, both). He is aware that the PR of the entire community as well as the happiness of its individual members are depending on what we allow to happen in our community.
In a sense, the oddity of the furry fandom is a PR problem in itself; a good many of us (myself included) are guilty of the “bizarre” fetishes prevalent in the furry fandom. We need to understand that while our image will never be pristine, it will however be even worse of a problem if headlines like “Senator’s Aide Solicits Minor for ‘Furry’ Sex” continues to appear in papers!
A criticism that may leveled against my argument is where do you draw the line on who to speak out against? Child pornographers or Cub porn artists? My response is that things like cub porn will always be a point of conflict within the fandom, we’re never going to have a definitive, however the issue is when real people are exploited and harmed directly and repeatedly. I do not intend to encourage any sort of authoritarian witch hunt of “bad” furries, but when someone observes consistent harm on those around him, at a certain point he has responsibility for allowing that to happen. We can’t live in our bubbles and expect not to be blamed for the next bad thing to happen.
The fact of the matter is, I love being a member of the furry fandom, and it is important that we remain accepting of all of our members, no matter how quirky or peculiar they are. At the same time, it is also important that we protect our members’ well-being, our artists’ intellectual property, and our own image. If we do not speak out strongly for fear of perpetuating “drama”, we are responsible for drama all the same.

Angry game
General | Posted 15 years agoPlaying Bioshock with Simon I have learned that I REALLY suck at first person shooters. Not an ordinary, "oh he's not familiar with this" kind of suck, but a "sweet Jesus, it took you 10 tries to kill ONE Big Daddy" kind of suck. I am angry at this game. Not to say, I don't love it. I love blasting my way through this straw-man Objectivist society... I just wish I could quit dying while doing it.
I'm going to play Persona 3 to make me feel better about myself.

2010: The Year Furry Broke
General | Posted 15 years agoI went into a Hastings today, and browsing among the art books there I found this among the stacks. After a small, giddy, self contained dance, I quickly informed my girlfriend
simonheron and babbled about how cool it was to see a directly furry-fandom related book in a mainstream bookstore.
In a way I feel this shows that we have earned some sort of recognition as a group, even if it's just some weird socially-awkward middle-schoolers buying this sort of thing. The fact that this book is worth carrying in store rather in simply in a warehouse where it takes up less space indicates to me that we are now enough established as a subculture that we are worth marketing at least something to. Either that or I'm being hyperbolic about the whole thing.
Needless to say, we've come a long way since Fur and Loathing.
UPDATE: Interestingly, this seems to be a trend at bookstores around the area. There is not one, but two bookstores that carry this book. Borders has another copy on its shelves and in addition it carries another furry book!

This is an oldie that I still enjoy very much. I never noticed until today of the weird mascot (fur?)suits hanging out in this video. I guess I was just more accepting of weird shit in music videos back when I was in high school.

Bamboo Sucks.
General | Posted 15 years agoI was getting to bed when I realized that the Wacom Bamboo was the stupidest purchase I've made in years. After being spoiled by my Intuos 2 for years, to think I could replace it with such a shitty subsitute. No precision. No tilt sensitivity. it's about as responsive as a rock. I'm going to have one of my Best Buy friends snag me an intuos 4 for cheap.
God Damn. I am mad about this all of the sudden.
