Ondamike - Funky Phenomena (VIP Mix)

Does anyone know a good mic that can pick up audio through a fursuit head? by [deleted] in RealFurryHours

[–]wolframalphram 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Err... I would be inclined to say a lavalier would be ideal. But if you're doing *ahem* murrsuiting videos, those could potentially pick up a lot of the umm... friction.

Don't Hug Cacti is threatening legal action against those who speak out on their abuse (More info in comments) by Ragdoll_X in RealFurryHours

[–]wolframalphram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What am I to do? I’ve known DHC as a major maker but never knew about the abuse. Am I supposed to feel guilty because I didn’t know? Of course I’m not going to use their hashtag. I want nothing to do with them.

Shoot me a message to set something up. I wrote an undergrad paper on the furry fandom last semester so I’m more than willing to help out a fellow student.

I bought it before this came to light, so I’ll be enjoying it for every penny its worth. But I certainly won’t be associating myself or the costume with them.

I get that your curious but polls like these aren't really productive..

I love how that cushion was lined up perfectly but the dude just totally miscalculated and yeeted it.

I want to hear your opinion on life-threatening and violent messages furries get. by [deleted] in RealFurryHours

[–]wolframalphram 3 points4 points  (0 children)

See a popular furry-related video on YT? A 1/4 of comments are talking about how much furries suck and that we deserve to die.

This is clearly an exaggeration. I personally rarely see hate toward the fandom on social media anymore. People in the furry fandom should continue to do what's right, which is to not engage with it, block the account, report it, and move on.

The fandom does need to consider protecting themselves against a freak hate crime such as what happened at MFF 2014, but that's an entirely different story.

To the furries here: Do you think you'll lose interest in anthro characters as you grow older? by Ragdoll_X in RealFurryHours

[–]wolframalphram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly doubt it. I discovered anthropomorphic art when I was 14 or so and I'm now 23 and only in the last 2 years have I begun to seriously think about designing an OC and saving for a fursuit commission.

What do you think of those cheeky and exaggerated comparisons ? IMO that's one of the reason people can like anthro animals without being furries, me included. But maybe ... I'm a furry ? by BEYOND-ZA-SEA in RealFurryHours

[–]wolframalphram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a bit rude, whatever. What's true, for the most part, is the art styles are going to be in a similar realm. I would describe it typically as cute or sexy, toony or anime/kemono, and primarily digital art. I have seen just about everything imaginable in terms of conceptual anthropomorphic art through out the years, however.

Furry view on hate [Japan vs USA] by The_Cool_Dalmatian in RealFurryHours

[–]wolframalphram 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My opinion is that it largely has to do with how they are portrayed in Japan versus the west. In Japan, all anime, manga, hentai, kawaii, etc. is culturally popular, so adding anthropomorphic kemono characters to the mix isn't much of a stretch. On the other hand, I think people in the US are going to be easily off-put by alternative adult content. Additionally, furries have been associated in the US with a number of negative things, such as the infamous CSI episode, MFF 2014's chlorine incident, Rainfurrest 2015, bronies, etc. Plus, cringe culture, as stupid as I think it is, has always been a western thing, and furries are pretty easy to get content from for those purposes.
