It's because federal funding is on the decline, Where only a decade or so ago the majority of public institution costs were covered by federal funding only about 30-40% is covered now. This has...

This actually caught my interest to get me to stop lurking. I've been studying education for my master's, in fact I've been spending the better part of the last year looking at the past 40 years of...

Yeah exactly. It's a practice that has happened and companies claim it is perfectly legal (I'd have to look at the facebook TOS but I'm willing to bet asking someone to do that isn't really legal) I...

California is the one I know is trying, there's a few others but I can't name them off the top of my head.
They have precedent, employers can't ask a variety of things dealing with age, marital...

I doubt this will be that prevalent, or even legal for much longer. It's already a bit tenuous, and there's several states that are just straight up making it illegal. Not that this helps someone...

Depends on the employer. There's a new trend in not doing that. I know for a long time grad schools would occasionally do that to applicants and recently the culture went "guys that's fucking stupid,...

I love new and foriegn foods. I like going out and trying weird stuff. I also like my old home favs like beans on toast and cottage pie :3

You don't need to make a full on realistic suit, you do have to understand how to construct a realistic shape. You need to be able to make a head that looks like a cat, rather than simply a cat in...

Fursuits work much like artwork. It is better to learn realistic anatomy and be able to apply that, then go toony. Toony style is just emphasizing that is already there in the realistic. If you don't...

You know, being overly sensitive is equally inconsiderate and insensitive as simply using the items, if not more so.
Not only do you rely on certain stereotypes, but you're basically saying these...

you can own them if you work in falconry, or have them for the use of education and enlightenment, but again paperwork.
When I was working with raptor rescue we would collect the wing and tail...

offense be damned, symbols are symbols. do what you want with a fursuit, just be prepared for your backlash. Don't use animal parts though.

Not for "omg animals are special" reasons. Birds are...

Maybe if we get the doctor to make a cameo they'll bring it back

You can get more form fitted suits if you use a really great duct tape dummy, short pile/stretch fabrics, and hard cast heads. A magpie bones head is pretty small.
The issue with partials is you...

I find this thread to be rather funny to be honest. After being away I've been lurking to see if I wanted to get into the forums and it looks like there's plenty of newbies that are getting along...

It's all a matter of preference and style. Usually the big name builders are quite good at it. You can see their work in pictures and videos. There's a few that I think still have tumor legs, but...

Do research on builders. I do know some actually use heels for highly realistic digigrade along with padding. In general it is simply down to padding which is attached or sometimes sewn into the...

I always find this sort of thing tragically funny.There's too many people in the fandom that desperately desire to be close to animals, to have a special affiliation. They want unconditional love,...

If you can, see exactly what fur was used in the original parts. "White" is very rarely simply white. there's ivory and off white and all this other stuff as well as fur and pile types. Not every...

It isn't, you're paying for quality and labor. Quite honestly quality fur which will last a long time, quality components for eyes, noses, etc, even making sure the person is using the more durable...
