I wanted to warn as many people as possible that there is some religious based protest group in San Jose that attacks like everything they can, and they always bug Fanime which happens in the same place FC is held this year.
I think the most I saw at once was like 20 people, all with huge protest signs about sinners and such, standing in a line yelling, they stand at the street edge which is fairly far back from the door and they are fairly ignorable as long as they do not have a megaphone.
From what I understand the main goal of this group is to sue people, they sue anyone who tries to prevent their protest or who takes a swing at them (rumor has it someone is always filming them, that they are a big trap to get money from an assault case by pissing you off)
Now they protest EVERYTHING, I heard their excuse for protesting Fanime was "worshiping false idols" I heard they protested a school function. So if they show they are NOT there to protest furries, they just protest everything.
SO point is.
Know that they may show up
know that they are not specifically furry haters but just general haters out to spoil fun
know that you need to not take their presence personal at all
know that you need to just ignore them as best you can.
I figured that not knowing about the protesters could leave a lot of people feeling rather hurt, knowing about them takes away their sting. I learned about the protesters before Fanime and thus ignored them rather easy, I knew they were just a harmless pest ... now had I not known I would have been hit with something rather uncomfortable when I arrived at the con.
SO I do not want folks to be left uncomfortable thinking that some hard core furry haters were attacking the event. Just please know that these are not hard core furry haters but rather real life trolls out wasting their time in the cold trying to make you feel bad about having fun....and just ignore them.
....and cross your fingers and hope they do not show up <_<;
They have been at Fanime every freaken time I have gone.
I hope FC does what Fanime did...and park a big old moving van between the con center and their protest spot to block them from view.

Hi, I'm not dead
But this account might be dead, I am a year behind in posting my work and I may never find the time to catch up. You can see each of my costumes debut videos from over the past year and from now on over on my Youtube https://www.youtube.com/user/theBeastcub/videos And if you want to see debut photos, work in progress stuff, and general nonsense about my pets and life you can follow my Twitter https://twitter.com/TheBeastcub
notes on using a ballcap as a fursuit base
The ball cap method is something I came up with over a decade ago due to my need of glasses and issues with the usual methods of balaclavas and elastic straps setting off my claustrophobia.
It has come to my attention another maker has been using hats inside their fursuit heads and they are doing it all wrong (using small sized floppy hats with a sliding adjuster, only sewing the hood to the hat in one small spot, and not attaching the hat to the resin base at all let alone putting any foam in the gap, just one of these can lead to a disaster of a fit and this person is doing all of the above) and now I am hearing "built on a baseball hat" u
Fursuit commissions open now
Ok, so, I had a minor pose as an adult to commission me and fraudulently use their mother's credit card, the paypal case has been in review for over a month and it is still not resolved, and if the case is not found in my favor I will loose the spent deposit and face some financial worry.
As a precaution I wish to cover said funds now and thus I will be open to give quotes to potential new clients from now to June 8th, I will then select my lucky new clients June 9th. (This opening is a bonus opening, my usual opening in August is still happening.)
For a quote email me at thebeastcub@gmail.com please only email me if you are ready to commit
did I never reply 2 your art 4 Zelda Winged Ones?
shoot, I just remembered someone drew a feathery Link remarking about my fanfic and it showed up in my mentions, I meant to comment on it and fave it but failed to as I have been so horribly busy for months and months, and today taking a day off work I went to go do so and it seems to have like expired or something as said mention is not in my inbox and I feel REALLY BAD I CAN'T FIND IT, I did various searches with various keywords here and it's not showing up D:
If you did any art based on my Zelda fanfic Winged Ones and I failed to comment or fave lemme know ;3;

(May be 1½ months late, but I still wanna say this) Those self-important schmucks are doing anything to make themselves heard, don't they? The nerve of these ignorant crackheads...! >|c
