ISP selling us out
General | Posted 8 years agoSo I got a new job/hobby/obsession, I am working for a nonprofit called Speak Together
http://www.speaktogether.org/ .
With an IndieGoGo campaign that when you contribute 10 bucks they can opt you out of your ISP having permission to sell your data, and they can for a little more monitor your isp to make sure they comply.
I know this isn't a super "Furry" post but it is my life pretty much at this moment and I think that furry's need privacy at least as much as anyone else.
At Least as much is usually an understatement.
I made them a Facebook page at
https://www.facebook.com/speaktogethernow
and we are looking for some artists to do some promo work, so if you have some speed slots, (campaign is only a month long) contact me.Thanks, and much love.

Help an autistic boy learn to talk. We did it
General | Posted 13 years ago We did it, got it and he is doing well at learning to use it to talk to his teachers and things. Mostly he is engaging in the world around him more.) Thank you all so very much.Fund raiser for my son, someone may be donating him an ipad but his speech therapist said some of the good applications are close to a hundred dollars.
Please contribute, even a dollar helps. And share.
This has helped so many non speaking autistic children.
I want that chance for Aaron to communicate with us.
If everyone on my friends list contributed one dollar we would be over our goal.
Just a dollar people, I have helped so many people and don't often ask for help.
Please this is so important to me. Click this link to donate: http://aarontablet.chipin.com/ipad-.....autistic-child
The end of this fundraiser is the 16th of December so we can have time to get it ready for him.
Update
General | Posted 13 years agoOk just to let you know what has been happening in my life. My nine year old non speaking autistic son fell in the kitchen and broke his hip in 2 places. Which means that I am unable to do much art right now because I am taking care of my child. He is staying with his Grandmother in Winston Salem which is 45 minutes away from me. The gas is killer rightow. I am sorry. love you all.
Furries in NJ BBQ more info on helping and trying to support
General | Posted 13 years agomost recent news edit (http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3576107/)
this is Copy Pasta'd since it was so much better than I would say it.
Per
razor_wulff
Ok folks, I am really amazed at the response, however, I want to clarify.... Tony, Shortwave, Aeon, and I do not physically have the pictures nor do we know who these people are..YET. The city does. Tony is working on viewing them for himself and then will have a go at speaking to these individuals privately. We will then decide what goes on after that.
As for letters to the squad and Chief they may be directed here...remember it was the Chief who allowed the furries to have the BBQ....he likes us and enjoys hanging with us...however he is taking more heat from the city than even Tony is.....so please send positive and professional letters only to:
Twin "W" Rescue Squad
ATTN: Chief Kevin Friis
P.O. Box 385
West Windsor, NJ 08550
Or via email at: chief[at]twinw.org
also have a chip in http://twinwrescue.chipin.com/twin-w-rescue-squad
Donations are tax deductible and can be made sent to the above address (Checks to be made out to Twin W Rescue Squad, Inc.) as well however we will not be able to keep a record of the donations made since they will directly to the Chief.
Commentary from
jirashi
.....At this point. It's about rectifying the wrong as much as possible. It's not about hunting down the two who triggered it. As much as I'd liek to know, the bigger picture is to give back what was taken away from this group. Furthermore, as stated by michichael nicely, a letter to the council is a good idea to try to apologize and bring a different understanding to the situation.
Quoting michichael directly here:
I would draft a letter, if you can, as follows:
"Members of the Council,
In light of recent events regarding the lewd acts displayed at a public event, we would like to open a discussion with the Council and the City about the decisions made.
Firstly, we will stress that the "Furry Fandom" is a massive subculture of individuals, not a small club with control over its membership and its behavior. The actions taken by two individuals were lewd, obscene, disgusting, and unlawful. Any information to who these individuals are will be communicated to the Chief of Police for prosecution immediately. Their actions are not characteristic of the subculture - they are the actions of individuals. This brings me to my second point.
The BBQ was a public fundraising event - while every effort is maintained to uphold the rule of law and decency, like any public event there is only so much that can be done when individuals choose to flout them. I urge you to reconsider the decision to punish The Twin W Rescue Squad for the actions of individuals completely outside of their control. What occurred is akin to two individuals mounting a stage during a charity concert and performing lewd acts - it was neither condoned nor sanctioned - it was an individual act by two individuals that must be brought to justice.
Punishing the organizers of a public event for the actions of the public that were unsanctioned is the exact opposite of justice. Further, the history of service of the Twin W Rescue Squad demonstrates their effectiveness and commitment to the safety of the people of the City. Please reconsider the sweeping reaction to this act by two individuals, as the people that will be harmed most by this cut are the citizens of the City.
I thank you for your time and consideration."

....that's about the best we can do at the moment. Address the city council apologizing for the situations and try to curb the lost funding as much as we can...and try VERY HARD to UNDERSTAND WHAT NOT TO DO!!!! Learn to keep things private.

Ac was lots of work and fun
General | Posted 13 years agoI had some fun at AC the people on art show staff were great. I didn't sleep well though and so got more and more exhausted as time went on. Also missed many things due to just general fatigue and my staff work schedule. Kage's stories were great. Missed 2's show but bought the dvd so I can see it at home.
The best thing happened one of my art pieces went to voice auction and apparently did well. (I was at the art show so didn't see the auction) I will get a check in 3 weeks along with a list of who bought what and how much they paid. But I was so amazed I had never had a piece go to voice before. I am grateful and humbled. Anyway AC was great next year I will be at the courtyard I hope so will be closer and thus less exhausted.
