HEY EVERYONE!! For one of my school courses, I am doing a research paper pertaining to the impact of expensive post-secondary schooling on young adults.

The demographic I am looking for are young adults, generally between the ages of 17-30, living in the United States or Canada. I prefer responses from people who have either attended college/university, are currently attending college/university, are preparing to attend college/university, or wanted to but were unable to.

The survey has a focus on the impact of student fees on learning, so if you live in a country where college/university is free, this survey probably isn't for you! However, I'd LOVE if you could recommend this to your fellow Canadian/American friends :>>

FILL 'ER OUT HERE:
>> http://goo.gl/forms/cJG7YJMPPznSvhqo1 <<

And thank you so much for taking the time to complete the survey, I super appreciate it!! <33

I feel pretty weird having to ask this question publicly BUT I figured FA would understand

SO does anyone know of any fantasy dildo company (or just non-realistic wangs i guess) BESIDES Bad Dragon that have built-in cum tubes?? I have a list of moral reasons as to why I would not want to support BD, but even besides that, I don't want to risk getting a really shoddy dildo or poor customer service for an extremely expensive fake dragon wang.
I've heard some people recommend buying BD from second-hand sources?? that personally sounds a bit weird to me but um, as long as they're not USED idk

SO YEA!! Please leave me recommendations for stores that can cater to my goddawful interests!!! I'm honestly good with anything as long as the company is reliable and morally sound. I also ask for no recommendations of hyper-realistic dildos, I am super uncomfortable with those.

thanks u godless sinful yiff lords B)

Just wanted to remind y'all where I am if you're moving from furaffinity! I'm gonna stay here as long as there's traffic, but you can find me in several other places:

I'm most active on Twitter and DeviantART! I am ALSO active on Weasyl, but due to it's low traffic I don't post as much concerning commissions. I may start though if I get more attention there!!
Twitter: https://twitter.com/bugfriends
DeviantART: http://isopedia.deviantart.com/
Weasyl: https://www.weasyl.com/~queenbee

And I have made a FurryNetwork (@ bug), but due a lot of the garbage surrounding the site, I may personally not feel comfortable using it. I may change my mind in the future once I know more information, but don't count on it.

I decided I would open a couple traditional badge commissions for a limited time! I'll probably take about 4-5 slots, so if you're interested, fill out this form ASAP. It also lists the commissions available + their prices:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/11g.....Zignw/viewform

I'm using a form because I always forget to ask for a lot of details, so this just makes it easier. Once the form is submitted, I will answer you via email/preferred social media as soon as possible!

thank you for reading!! B)

This is the LAST CALL for badge commissions and FWA pre-orders, so if you're interested in snagging a slot, note me or email me at madison.longshore[at]gmail.com ASAP!!
They are also on sale, and I will be raising the price of badge commissions at FWA.

Check out the commission info here:

HEY EVERYONE!! I finally caved and decided that I want to try getting myself a fursuit made sometime.

I'm looking for a suit maker for my character, Bubblegum >> http://www.furaffinity.net/view/19225828/
I'm looking for someone that specialized in chubby, cartoony suits!! Expertise with toothier monsters and reptiles would be great too : >

I'd love if you guys left me some recommendations, thank you!!

Hey guys, I'm opening THREE slots for digital badge commissions:
-1 headshot (example here)
$16
-1 mini (example here)
$18
-1 halfbody (example here)
$25

I'm going to use these as examples for badge commissions in the future!
Just drop me a comment if interested, or email me at madison.longshore@gmail.com. Thanks for reading!!

(note: All badges will be drawn digitally. The reason I used traditional badges as examples are because I have no digital examples available, but they show the style the badge will be drawn in and their composition.)

EDIT: the headshot and mini badge slots have been claimed! there is only one slot left for a halfbody badge

WHERE ALL MY ONTARIO FURS AT.........
i'm not getting a hotel or anything, but i've been thinking about driving down to FE cause it's a pretty short ride from where i live!!

i was also considering doing some badges for con drop off or badge trades??? let me know if you're interested : >

wow I had SUCH an amazing time at MFF this year!! It was so cool to meet so many of you, and working the artist alley was such a great experience ;;
everyone I met was so nice!! I try to restrain myself from flying all around the world to attend furry conventions but it's so hard to resist lmao

I'm definitely gonna try going back to mff next year, might even try taking badge pre-orders and trades. thank you everyone for making it such a good experience, I hope I can find everyone I met there : >

HEY Y'ALL later tonight i'm catching a bus for Chicago!! can't wait for an all-night bus trip. can't wait
but YES I will be attending MFF this year, and me and  hauntedhomo are gonna try to get into the artist alley!!
If you see us, come say hey, we'll have some stickers + plushies + commissions available!

then after that i'll be going back home with carol for about a week, so i'm not gonna be on for the next while.

If you want MFF updates or to hmu, i'll be more active on twitter!! go follow me i'm BUGFRIENDS
https://twitter.com/bugfriends

fuck shit everyone's talking about mff and it's only in like THREE WEEKS and i plan on going but i haven't actually organized anything yet cause i do everything last minute lmao
it'd be rly cool to do like..,,,,badge trades or sketchbooks trades at the con. I also wanna try getting in the artist alley but again nothing's official 4 mff yet

SO ANYWAYS yea i wanted to know who's going????? I really hope i can get there and meet some peeps ;o;

hey everyone!! lately I've been thinking of buying some sweet loot from some cool artists, so would you mind recommending me some of your favourite artists with society6/redbubble/etc???

you can totally recommend me yourself as well!! I'd really love to pick up some stickers and tank tops especially. thanks u guys ✌ ✌ ✌

hey everyone!! I returned from my trip to visit  hauntedhomo on early Monday morning, so I'm back now, but there's gonna be further delays for art and responding to comments.

if you know anything about greyhound busses they've got some of the most incompetent service I've ever seen, and SURPRISE SURPRISE they threw my luggage into some random bus and now I don't have my luggage!! my suitcase had my computer in it, so I'm pretty much doing everything on mobile from now on until I get my luggage back or I get a new computer.

I may post some traditional art, but I can't guarantee anything. this is really effecting me mentally as well so that'll slow things down a whole lot more.

so sORRY FOR ANY DELAYS!!! we just gotta sit back and hope I get my luggage soon I guess 😒

>> https://twitter.com/bugfriends <<

>: 3c

I'm leaving tomorrow MEGA EARLY to catch a 6:30 flight lmao kill m
Yea i'm visiting  hauntedhomo my gf again what aBOUT IT???? Are u suprised?????? I think this is round 7, absolutely incredible.

While I'm down there though, I'll be attending indy popcon, then we'll be heading to Pittsburgh for anthrocon!! Anyone else going??
I'll probably be suiting for both, check out my gay fursuit: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/15765832/


I don't think it'd be that hard to find, so hmu if u see me there!!!

Hey everyone, I'd really appreciate it if you could take some time to fill out this survey for my sociology class!!
It focuses on gamer culture, so if you've never played a video game, I probably wouldn't fill it out. I am also encouraging FEMALE GAMERS to please fill this out, my project is on gender discrimination and whether gaming culture is a safe space for women, so your input is very valuable to me!!

>> http://goo.gl/forms/t3yDkVpk3l <<

If u wanna tell your friends about this too I'd really appreciate it! The more, the better :3c

Hey I'm flying out in a couple hours for a week and I might have some spare time SO I'd like to take a couple art trades!! Maybe 2? Comment w/ your cool OC's i'll probably pick 2 trades.
My computer broke and it's currently being sent in for repairs, so they're gonna be traditionally drawn!! (and they're won't be digital art for a little bit omg)

so ye if you're interested leave your characters in a comment below, I'll pick the ones I'm most interested in drawing probably : >

do i have to draw MASSIVE DRAGON DONGS pls share ur ideas w/ me

I'd like to take some commissions today so I'm offering a new type of commission (for a limited time)!
It'll be a full-coloured, cell shaded bust of your character with a simple background.
Your commission will look something like this http://d.facdn.net/art/trilobites/1.....tes_dogger.png

That picture is pretty experimental, but that's about the size of it. I plan on doing lineart for it, but let me know if you'd prefer a lineless style!

I'll be pricing them at $15 CAD/USD
I will NOT take these for very long, so comment or send me a note if you're interested!

EDIT: sorry I'm re-posting this cause we really need all the help we can get.

So me and a couple others are trying to plan a trip to anthrocon, but you need to be at least 21 to check into a hotel. The oldest person in our group is 20 (21 in a few months) and we don't know anyone else going so we're..pretty stuck lmao

Does anyone have any idea what we can do about this? We've considered getting a nearby motel but it's not ideal. Any help with this would be super appreciated!!! ;;

For the past (almost) a year, me and my girlfriend  hauntedhomo have been working and developing a story that we have given the wonderful placeholder name "Bug Yuri". If that name doesn't want you to check out the story, I don't know what will.
SO GOOD NEWS!! Me and Carol have made an OFFICIAL Bug Yuri blog, please go and check it out!

>>> http://bugyuris.tumblr.com/ <<<

We dumped most of the art we've done for bug yuri to this day already. There's gonna be a lot more sketches/unfinished work posted on here, so definitely follow for even more gay bugs.

Y'all also gotta send asks our way about the characters/worldbuilding/etc. Me and Carol have been working very hard on this project and it's super important to us so thanks for looking!!
