Thoughts on the Current State of Society

I do not know what the problem is lately with society, in particular with the furry fandom for example. But I am noticing lately that many people seem to just be out for themselves instead of showing a willingness to help others. Because to me, I would rather be around people who would do show some level of consideration and respect for how I feel and my personal feelings. Helping me out when I need help, or providing that tool that allows me to finish working on a project.
Society In a way has gotten to be what some or anyone would more or less consider being corrupt. As there are good people in the world worth doing business with, but still even the best of them are jerks in some way or another even some popufurs for example. But something I think people should realize is that we are all equal and no better than anyone else. Thus by natural law, we would not be allowed to judge another person because we do not agree with them as we are equally guilty. To a point with the Internet today there needs to an international standard that holds everyone accountable for their actions and wrong doings. If you do something that violates those general rules, then there is a price to pay for those activities. Simply put, act as though you were talking to another person in actual life, as we all see the world differently and in our own ways. The thing about negativity is you have to have it to build upon the good as you can choose to accept or reject the given information but either way you can not deny the truths presented within.
Overall you as individual reading this post can not deny the fact that "Life is not something to just take lightly, but instead use it as an opportunity to build and grow and develop your own life for the better!"

Fursuit making guide series.

           Now to some this idea may seem to be a bit crazy but I also understand your concerns as well. As of course there is not any secrets to making a fursuit but this is a question that many people who would like to make a costume of this sort would like to know how to do. As with this series hopefully it will answer any questions you might have and make this process a bit easier to understand.
      With that being said I would like to take the opportunity to produce such a product myself. Now in the process I would explain all aspects of the process to provide a through explanation, all the way from making basic hand paws down to the head itself. As i believe with the right amount of research and knowledge anyone could if willing make a good quality product.

Before going any further lets determine our game plan:

1) For the sake of resources we will be making a Albino white Lion partial. which will include one set of hand paws, feet paws, and of course the head.

2) Determining the costs aka the price of materials and tools required for this project.

3) Design, getting measurements, making patterns, and research.

4) Producing the costume itself, if anything and if we are lucky the partial can be made within the time frame of a month but we may never know until we actually do it.

    Through the course of this series the project may take a different direction but do not be alarmed as it is a normal, changes will happen. Plus if anything I would totally recommend to take it slow and steady as this guide is meant to be a very useful help tool, that explains what actually goes into making a fursuit partial, or even a full suit. On the next post I will explain the history of such a costume.
Lastly as a final note I have never made a fursuit before but in the process of this series to those of you read it will be learning process for both of us. But I would recommend that you would at least have some knowledge of sewing and a machine that is able to handle to working with faux furs and a few other materials.

New Year's resolutions/Goals

Hello Everyone 

Well, folks, we are four days into 2017! Now, I figure many of you have chosen a few resolutions that you are planning on working on in this Year. Unlike my usual posts lets have ourselves a discussion! I do not usually make resolutions since I know they can be easily broken. But with that in mind, I would like to refer to them as being goals or things I can work on to become a better person a few of which are as follows:

1) Be Less of a Know it all

2) Learn to not be so defensive/offensive towards criticism.

3) Be Less controlling of the African Lion Species and let everyone have their say about them.

4) Act in a more considerate manner to show people how much I deeply care about something without being rude or disrespectful.  

With these ideas in mind, I do ask for your help in improving myself and keeping me in line for these goals to be reached. Now then with the discussion: "What are your Goals for the Year and how do you plan on making them happen or meeting them?"

Have a great day and I am curious to hear your thoughts and ideas.

Christmas Holidays Experiences


Hey, everyone!

Over the Christmas Holidays, I did not really do much of anything except spend time with my family. But on Christmas eve I went to a church service that to an extent was done by a Baptist church in mid-downtown Houston Texas. The church itself was nice as can be. Very much like an old church from the middle ages but a bit more modern. Going on to the service it was very nice but from my experience, it seemed as though they were acting more like a catholic church than baptist. Which to me, I felt like they were putting on the entire service as a show since they did have a good choir and orchestra. But there were times when the percussion section did drown out the rest of the group. While the choir could be heard without an issue.
 Later that week on the 26th of December 2015 I went to a festival called "Magical Winter Lights" at the Gulf Grey Hound Park in La Marque, Texas. With the cost of admission and parking, it was $25 in total.  For a one time visit event it's not too bad of a price jut to see the lantern sculptures but if you wanted to take part in the carnival aspect then that would be a different story with another $20 fee just for the unlimited ride armband.
During the event, there was these Chinese acrobatic show produced by the "Sichuan Zigong Acrobatic Troupe" that was oddly enough quite amazing and well put together. In the process of my visit to the event, I happened to actually record the entire 31-minute show and a bit of what I saw of the lantern sculptures. Now I do apologize for the shakiness as I was using my selfie stick to balance my action camera. I also realize that the video quality may be utter crap but I was working with the best I had on hand at the time. When watching the Acrobatic show part there was a brief moment where the stage lighting was very bright and distorted the video, hopefully, it's not too bad. In the process of editing this video, Youtube had a fit with copyright.

Now at this point, All I have to say is enjoy the show and Have an epic day.





 The song to the right of this section of was in the  Acrobatic show as it comes from a band in Japan  called "SMAP." Just a little tidbit I'd share with you for fans of Japanese culture.
