Coming Soon: Metafilter – The Novelisation, by Alan Dean Foster

turgid dahlia — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 16:37:57 -0800

Writing, seemingly, a book a day since his birth in 1946, Alan Dean Foster, 2008 Grand Master of the International Association of Media Tie-In Writers, still finds a great deal of time for travel. Come and share his journeying. Besides adaptations for three upcoming summer blockbusters (Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Terminator: Salvation and Star Trek), and his classic interpretations of the original Alien trilogy, the hard-working Foster is also the creator of Spellsinger, Pip and Flinx and the Humanx Commonwealth. His first published story? A "a long Lovecraftian letter" purchased by August Derleth, which appeared in The Arkham Collector in 1971. He belongs to the not-very-secret quasi-Government thinktank The Sigma Group. Oh, and he's also George Lucas.

Does this go above, next to, or below 'People who write erotic versions of Star Trek where all the characters are furries?'

In case you were wondering, yes. There is a republican furry community. The bigger question is: what consequences will this have for the geek chart?

When even Dave Sim finds you weird...

Without doing any work of your own, now you can make a movie about a few conspiracies to murder the exiled premier of Nigeria. Was it the cowboy, the wizard, or the well-endowed humanoid animal creature in the corner? Or was it an entirely different story altogether?

Giddy-up!

The Unicorn Orgy ...as I sculpted unicorns, one by one, things went their own way--the ghost orgy turned into a playful group of varied mythical creatures, nothing like the dream. Still, it started with unicorns. Most things do. (NSFW)

Furry Art

Making fun [banner ad may be NSFW] of Furries sure is fun, isn't it? Pointing out over and over again some of the worst examples of what the the fandom has to offer seems to be an activity almost as old as the Internet. In the rush to point and laugh , though, it's easy to miss entirely some of the more beautiful and amusing examples of what the culture's emphasis on art and imagination has wrought upon the world. And even if you aren't impressed by the talent on display, someone is -- Further Confusion, one of the largest Furry conventions in the world, has had for two years running an art show bringing in over $60,000 each year, with portions of the convention's proceeds going to organizations such as the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund , the Coyote Point Museum , and the Oakland Zoo.

Lord, please make me a werewolf today

This site is dedicated to spreading the Gospel in the werewolf and furry communities. It also gives advice on how to P-shift and explains why he doesn't like role playing games. Quote - "I have Jesus to change me into a dragon and create neat lizard people to assist me in heaven." Words fail me.

Sure is hot in here

The Fursuit & Costume Archive has a most impressive collection of videos of people in animal costumes. Are you furry-curious?

No, eggs are for sucking. Weasels are for popping.

One Saturday Night in Furbank is an entertaining diary entry wherein diarist, Kitty Bukkake, crashes a furry shindig, The 14th Annual International Anthropomorphic Convention and Exhibition, ConFurence 2002 at the Burbank Airport Hilton.

"Problem: we don't want them to know we are impostors or they might kick us out. We'd brought some plush toys along: Steven had a bunny, and I had a whale, a bee, and a dragonfly, plus a panda keychain. But we weren't fooling anyone with our old toys, our short hairdos and stylish, non-pleated jeans. We didn't fit the profile."

Ms. Kitty B has turned those exciting field notes and photos of the Furry gathering into a book.
