(Personal) The Best Thing About Tragedy

May 22, 2017May 22, 2017 ~ Jakebe ~ Leave a comment

Pixar's Inside Out is an amazing film, and I'll get into exactly what I think about it later. But for now I want to talk about one perfect moment of many in the movie because I keep thinking about it recently. If you haven't seen the movie, don't worry -- I won't spoil too much … Continue reading (Personal) The Best Thing About Tragedy

(Fandom) 2 Words

March 21, 2017March 21, 2017 ~ Jakebe ~ 1 Comment

  Comedians who use shocking or transgressive humor are often no strangers to controversy and criticism. Even the best of them sometimes tip over into the gratuitous, but most don't stay there very long. The transgressive nature of stand-up comedy is used by these artists as a tool, a scapel that scrapes away the flab … Continue reading (Fandom) 2 Words

(Wednesday Fiction) Br’ers – Orientation

December 9, 2015December 9, 2015 ~ Jakebe ~ Leave a comment

I wanted to find a way to marry two of my interests, and came up with this setting. I'm still figuring things out, so the snippets will be a little rough for the next two weeks, but I thought it was time to share it.  Greggory looked in the mirror and saw an alien staring … Continue reading (Wednesday Fiction) Br’ers – Orientation

A Furry Mental Health Podcast?

July 29, 2015July 29, 2015 ~ Jakebe ~ 4 Comments

So last week I made a series of posts about depression and recent comments and ideas being batted around within the fandom. The response has been pretty amazing, and I'm so happy to hear from so many people who are dealing with mental health issues themselves or have been touched by people who are. I … Continue reading A Furry Mental Health Podcast?

FurAffinity and the Realities of Capitalism

June 24, 2015 ~ Jakebe ~ 7 Comments

This week, FurAffinity decided that it would update its advertising policy to include "mature" ads on pages that included mature/adult work. It didn't take very long for the backlash to come, which is pretty much what happens whenever FA tries something new. More users and artists distanced themselves from the site -- if they didn't … Continue reading FurAffinity and the Realities of Capitalism

Hey Furries, Meet Sci-Fi/Fantasy!

January 22, 2014January 21, 2014 ~ Jakebe ~ 1 Comment

Further Confusion 2014 is in the record books now, and I'm sure I don't need to tell you it was a hell of a convention. There were nearly 3,600 attendees this year, and it felt like there was an unending parade of things to do, people to see and places to be. I had a … Continue reading Hey Furries, Meet Sci-Fi/Fantasy!

How Our Writing Gets Better

August 12, 2013August 12, 2013 ~ Jakebe ~ 1 Comment

There's a bit of an ongoing kerfluffle in the furry writing community about critics of stories and the role they should play. From my admittedly limited experience with the subject, it seems like the argument has been broken down into two camps. Some folks feel that furry literature should be subjected to the same standards … Continue reading How Our Writing Gets Better

Interesting Times

June 12, 2013 ~ Jakebe ~ Leave a comment

Last week was fairly interesting. Over the weekend I knew almost immediately that something was wrong with me, so I told my boss I'd work from home on Monday to make sure I had everything I needed on hand; I've been dealing with an ongoing health issue that's easier to manage from home. So I … Continue reading Interesting Times

Further Confusion 2013

January 28, 2013January 27, 2013 ~ Jakebe ~ 1 Comment

The break that I had threatened earlier was a little longer than anticipated -- sorry about that. The past couple of weeks have been a bit of a whirlwind for a number of reasons, and I'm just now getting to catch up with everything. There'll be more about that in future blogs, I promise, but … Continue reading Further Confusion 2013

A Life of Intention

September 10, 2012September 8, 2012 ~ Jakebe ~ Leave a comment

My post about why we should think about including furries in our fiction drew a lot of comments after it went up. I got a *lot* of people Twitter-bombing me about why I was wrong! A lot of the feedback was useful, and I'm grateful for it. It offered up a new perspective on the … Continue reading A Life of Intention
