I got to see someone on Tumblr say that furries are part of a demonic, devil worship cult. Even if they were just trolling, it's those kinds of things that people will read and think about as they judge us. I ended up defending my fellow furs with a post of my own.

GAH. I just got out of a relationship, I was feeling all good about myself and proud that I realized I don't need anyone but me to be happy... I don't need to start developing crushes now!

Flow the sands of time...             Back to better days...
Let the years, like the gears        Memories, like a dream,
Of a clock, unwind...                   Wash tears away...

Like a star in the sky,                 Cast away your old face,
Darkness can't reach you,           Full of gloom and spite...
Light the night, Joy is light           With this mask, I'll ask to
'Til the new dawn...                     Borrow your light...

I really hate it when people throw a fit because we furries have to defend ourselves. So it's wrong for us to tell people stereotypes are not true, but it's perfectly fine for people to depict us as demons? Oh wait, I forgot: Internet = A Reason to be Horrible Human Beings.

Have you ever loved a film, but no one has ever head of it before? Yeah, that's the entirety of my second favourite director (David Lynch's) filmography... Even though he's made:
1) the most disturbing film of all time. (Eraserhead)
2) a Disney film. (The Straight Story)
3) the Oscar nominated 'The Elephant Man' staring Anthony Hopkins and John Hurt.
4) one of the best T.V series of all time. (Twin Peaks)
5) a film staring Nicholas Cage. (Wild At Heart)
I think the problem is that people don't watch art house films anymore... I mean, how many people have head of the pronominal director Lars Von Trier (my third favourite director)? Who made amazing and stunning films like Melancholia, Antichrist, Dogvill and Dancer In The Dark... No one i know...

I'm actually familiar with David Lynch!
I've yet to see any of his longer movies... but I've seen his short film "Rabbits".

The short film Rabbits is prominent in the film Inland Empire, which is one of his most weird and wonderful works. He has only made ten films to date, those being:

Eraserhead
The Elephant Man
Dune
Wild At Heart
Blue Velvet
Lost Highway
Mulholland Dr.
Inland Empire
The Straight Story
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me

But it pains me to see his work unrecognised, because he was Stanley Kubrick's (my favourite director's) favourite director, Eraserhead being his favourite film... He even made the cast and crew of The Shining watch it to set the mood and tone of the film.

Exactly, I actually had other furries tell me after I defended our culture in a rather professional manner "Chill, it's just a joke you know?" No, it's not just a joke, and even if it is, it's not a good joke. Its a joke with the kind of attitude that could cause another incident like the Midwest Furfest  Convention.

I'm a bit annoyed at how people keep talking shit about flash animation for cartoons.

I hate how people can be so impatient. Sure I'm slow and easily confused, but it doesn't help when I'm given no time to react at all. Shouting at me only makes me slower and more confused.
People make omellettes with butter? Ew!

The sheer amount of RP activity in this forum astounds me. What pains me is that I do not have the time to attempt to join in some of the quality pieces ongoing, due to coursework and my own private RP group in the background, alongside a social life. Were it possible, I'd join a couple here myself, but I do not know if I could fully commit to anything, despite my desires to do so.


Frustrating, perhaps, but it is how it is. Perhaps times will change in the future.
