Why?
General | Posted 13 years agoWhy do people feel obligated to try and push their beliefs onto others? Everyone thinks they've got things figured out, that's just human nature, but how freaking arrogant do you have to be to think that others ought to think like you? You're nothing, man, ignorant and small. You're gonna die and be forgotten, and even if that weren't the case, do you really wanna be remembered as that pushy asswipe who was always trying to impose his worldview onto others?

Anime of furry interest
General | Posted 13 years agoThough I'm not sure it should be called "anime" since it's Korean.
The title is "Yobi The Five-Tailed Fox." It's obviously aimed at children and Korean ones at that. There are subplots that never really go anywhere, weird characters (one appears to be the spirit of a toilet bowl) and a couple of points where the soundtrack takes an out-of-place dip into techno-industrial territory.
Yobi is a multi-tailed fox, a character that should be familiar to anyone acquainted with Chinese, Japanese, or Korean mythology. There are also aliens that eat a lot of screentime without contributing much. Weird, weird movie...can't stress that enough.
One thing the film definitely has going for it is visual style. The forest backgrounds are, frankly, some of the finest I've ever seen. There is also some sophisticated CGI rendering of plantlife and dead leaves. If the movie had spent more time on the budding friendship between our two protagonists and dropped all of the superfluous elements, this would have been a real gem. As it stands, it's a good-looking movie that unfortunately suffers from excess baggage.
Recommended for those with a keen interest in animation and/or weird kids' films. There is not an English dub as far as I know. Available on Netflix.

About furry artists and furrydom
General | Posted 13 years agoYou know, I used to think that furry artists were generally assholes. The logic behind this was that since people were always sucking up in hopes of scoring some free art, it would feed into the artists' egos and eventually turn them into jerks.
And you know what? That's actually true for a lot of them. That said, I've met a surprising number of furry artists who are just as chill and friendly as you could ever want...and not as some kind of disingenuous ploy to sell art, but people who are actually that nice. That's a wonderful thing.
I've been so cynical for so long...to think that there would be people I would enjoy doing business with, it's beyond difficult to conceive... yet here we are.
I've been a part of this fandom for better than 15 years now. It took a long time to learn to appreciate it, but I love it. There are always people who poop in the punchbowl, but I've met many fascinating, beautiful people as well. So, if you're among the latter, go ahead and give yourself a pat on the back, preferably of butter.
And Happy Thanksgiving to those celebrating. ^.^v

Dwale Dreamt
General | Posted 13 years agoThere once was someone I loved very much. I don't know why I did. We weren't close, hell, I barely knew her. But there was something in her...something cracked and fragile and beautiful, so, somehow... somewhere there was an invisible place where we could meet, a place we could understand each other without words. I felt I had known her all my life.
One night, she...offered to share my bed. It would have made me happy for a time, but all I could say was, "That would be inappropriate." The matter was closed.
I didn't understand why I turned her down at first. But, as some of you know, I read people pretty well. I searched out the puzzle pieces of our conversations and put together an ugly picture. Someone, or maybe a group of someones, had broken that fragile and beautiful thing inside her when she was young. The two things I realized at that time were that 1) she was looking for someone to heal her and 2) I would never be that person, no matter how much I wanted to be.
I dreamt of her just now, lying naked on the floor, half-covered with a blanket, inviting. So I forced myself to wake up. It would have been wrong.

General | Posted 13 years agoFirelight in the forest
Burning with no source
The yellow bones of fawns
The way the world has gone
Foxfire in the darkness,
the soft, warm moss
beckons. Lay me down.
The night deepens now.
The sky fills with flames,
alas, too soon, too late,
would that I repented
before the world ended.

Another old poem
General | Posted 13 years agoMainly since I very rarely compose anymore. As usual, the creative route was a form of automatism; I attributed no particular meaning to this at the time it was written, even though the sentiment is obvious in retrospect.
Untitled
Her long hair undulates like lazy vapor
as the smoke from her cigarette does the same,
it blends with her skin, both white as paper.
She never remembers her birth-given name.
She walked to the window to see outside,
the frail glass was replaced with panes of lead.
Her story hid', down where the roaches hide,
she tried hard to recall what the pages said.
Between boards over the punctured walls
a rare plain of sun could blister her soul.
Perched atop a needle, she's yet to fall,
but trembles above a mile-wide hole.

saw a movie
General | Posted 13 years ago"Sinister" it was called. It was a supernatural horror movie. That's all I'm sayin' so I don't spoil anything. Horror fans will probably like it. Non-horror fans...don't usually like horror movies as a rule, na?
So I was looking at side effects from one of my meds the other day and it said,
"Drowsiness
Insomnia"
>.< wtF, pills!?
Oh, also, I signed my contract to get mah short story published. (That's horsey in a wheelchair down there). Wow. This must be how Pinocchio felt. Or no, fuck that, lame. This must be how Key felt!
But actually, I don't feel anything. Anything at all. [Should have been a band in the 90's]

I'm ok
General | Posted 13 years agoProbably still a little stabby, but mostly ok. Just remember, I like my conversation like I like my waffles: sweet and fluffy and drizzled with olive juice.
Might wanna just let me alone for a day or two
General | Posted 13 years agoI'm irritable. Nothing major, more like a swarm of gnats I just can't shoo away. It'll be alright. Peace and love.
Can D&D make you confident and successful?
General | Posted 13 years agoA talk on that question which I found interesting, being an avid roleplayer myself for many years (I owned nearly $1000 worth of rulebooks and supplements at one point).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFtlDhksGHA&feature=g-all-u
But, uhh...as far as it making folks confident and successful...? ^.^; Well, it's interesting, in any event.

Bisexuality Day?
General | Posted 13 years agoThat's a thing? Apparently so. Huh.
Well, if you should happen to be bisexual then go ahead and celebrate your skinny butt off. Or maybe it's a fat butt, you know your behind better than I do. Most of you, anyway.
You can also celebrate it if you're not bisexual. Yes! Maybe it's the Irish blood talking, but I don't believe in bad excuses to party. XP

I'm really looking forward to it since her style is so perfect for my 'sona. ^.^v I've asked to redo the hair, though, since it looks like I'm balding there...at least to me.
