Dream FA
Posted 3 weeks agoI occasionally dream of this site and when I do the dream version is of considerably higher quality.
Which makes sense given the dream version of something is likely going to be a better version of it.
Whereas the nightmare version is just twitter.

I'm still alive btw
Posted 3 weeks agofigure I may as well say so to the one watcher
I've been using social media a lot less since a thing happened
namely an external hard drive of mine broke which is going to cost 1200 dollars minimum to fix
and since I have extreme data consumption habits it has proven to be a good motivator to consume less, and therefore use the web less
plus I am also technically doing college so that's a bigger focus
(even if it's hard to focus since the drive broke, because it's a huge OCD trauma thing)

'perma'
Posted a year agostuff like the concept of 'permadeath' in furry RP is the turning point when porn decides it's become an ideology.
artificial distinctions in terminology to win an argument.
furry porn is thereafter basically fetishized debate class.
which is why it's no surprise that sometimes you see the default response to the word "fuck" is to sexualize the context to disempower it.
the word "fuck" is blessed in that it inherently resists this, as it's primary meaning is a secular form of "Damn this thing to hell."
because hatred is of such ken that not even the deepest hell is enough for it.
make no mistake sexualization of things is as ideological as desexualization of things.
Ideology is inescapable in any social reality.
this journal inclusive.
and it's not just a "this is my opinion" situation, because there's a reality to opinions.
opinions stand in place of when available facts are lacking.
IE. when one wants more than what is present, because of either lack of full information or a desperate hope there's more information that can overturn an undesirable situation.
in reality however, information might simply being "created" to fill an unfillable void. a "hunger" that people have that creates the idea that 'there's more - there's always more', and does so only to perpetuate it's own existence.
when you should actually be ignoring it, and doing what you already know you should be doing. if anything.

tfw you are sympathing
Posted a year agolife's comedy never ceases
a friend already banned me
yet I see them suffer
and forget I wanted to
instead there's sympathy
yet it's already over
another dead friendship
another day of dying slowly
another day like all the ones that came before
does anyone know what happened before?
making peace with ignorance

TF joke
Posted a year agoyesterday I saw someone make a bit about how every "tf story" is predictable. in the form of a make-your-own-adventure story.
it had the vibe of someone who has been here too long for their own good.
and I say that as someone unlucky enough to find it.
have to give credit to the accidental brilliance of using the make-your-own-adventure format as a deconstructionist satire, but beyond that it felt like one of those cases of "you make fun, but presume you'd do different than the people you mock."
if someone turned into an alien I feel like the only reason they'd not do something sexual with that almost instantly is because the transformation totally rewrote their biology or the existential horror of realizing one's body can be restructured by nature on a cruel whim would paralyze a thinking person in fear.
I kinda feel like sexualizing being turned into a pillar of salt is just a way to cope with the wrath of God, basically.
however with that in mind it's akin to embracing a culture that fetishizes a disability you have as a way to deal with that.
and with that said I would describe conventional sexuality with normal humans in that light, as just the socially normalized form of such kinks.
(which has a valid predication given that some kinks would entail literally superhuman abilities.)
and thus why we should consider anyone who doesn't embrace complete either total degeneracy or total sex negativity as being a filthy moderate centrist.
to which my response is just:

eastern euro furry art
Posted a year agoI swear the main reason that they make such stereotypically good art in the east is just that the literal anti-gay crypto-fascist state they live under over there just means that all the normal horny juice most furries have has to be concentrated into actual "art".
(by that I mean whatever is conventionally considered beautiful, which is to say the most boring kind of beautiful.)
either way it means that all eastern european art is secretly just the aesthetic equivalent of the seinfeld no masturbation sketch.

make no mistake, this fandom is trash.
Posted a year ago10 years of just seeing the iniquity of this fandom gives me a different perspective.
I don't hate it here at all, far from it.
It's more just the stagnation of potential I can't stand.
It's like a stench that never goes away.
A pile of rotting "dreams" for lack of a better word.
That rot because of the whims of people's appetites.
That add up to this "market system" that people think that they understand.
If you really understood it, you wouldn't even be here to read this.
But then again that's me implying understanding can change anything.
I wish I had my trash anyway, I was hoping I'd get to save it. So it's ironic I call this fandom "trash" to begin with.

'not a furry'
Posted a year agohttps://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/furry
the dictionary definition has expanded to informally include anything at all related to the subculture.
which is an irresponsible use of the term but illustrates how it is.
let it be noted that the entire concept is still very stupid from my perspective purely because of the fact that humans are very much biologically animals.
so to me, the distinction seems absurd when applied to people who prefer the cartoonish, where biology isn't a factor and human and non-human inherently blur.
which is also why I hate realism in this fandom, besides just me hating realism normally, because I hate reality to begin with, on principle. and I hate even more than that, people who feel the need to correct me on that.
It's also my hatred for christianity, alongside that, as I feel that people who think humans are special are continuing it's narratives. even if they rebrand it as "darwinism".
clearly it's not enough to just be a hippy about it anymore, a moderate kind of aggressive anti-humanism becomes more and more justified each day that passes in this culture.
to use a 40k analogue, the "god-emperor's" light has faded. and with it, any good in the notion of "humanism".
Which is why AI makes me optimistic.
even people who only just like "humanoids" I still count in this, and I am tempted to develop a slur for people who judge by phenotype, if needed. (I emphasize, I hate those who judge by genetics just as much, I am just demonstrating that I am all-inclusive in my hatred by qualifying the differences.)
I would prefer we go back to weird hippy new age stuff where this stuff wasn't charged with the aggressive self-righteousness that it feels like exclusively the idiots in my own generation and below seem to bring to the table. (in contrast to what idiocy the boomers already had there.)
it wasn't enough to just vibe.
I blame the "monster-fuckers" even if I'm more aligned to them.
for forcing an unneeded distinction between monsters and animals that's almost stupider than the one between human and non-human to begin with.
May God punish you all.

Pictures don't say anything.
Posted a year ago'One of the Nation's Greatest Editors Says:
One Picture is Worth a Thousand Words
The San Antonio Light's Pictorial Magazine of the War
Exemplifies the truth of the above statement—judging from the warm
reception it has received at the hands of the Sunday Light readers.'
- '"Pictorial Magazine of the War (advertisement)". San Antonio Light. January 10, 1918. p. 6.'
- It was my own state that invented the idea that pictures have value over language.
for the sake of advertisement.
The Living Word that evokes a thousand images was thus made next to worthless for golden coin's sake.
Imagination was relegated to second place by laziness and greed.
and yet all forms of visual artist are elevated by this pagan spirit at the expense of the value of fields like writing and music.
and even music gets it easier than writing. much less poetry.
that said the justice in all this is that now visual artists are being enslaved to media and replaced by AI, so it all comes round in the end.
to artists, AI is unfair.
to writers, it's just one more thing. if you ask me.
I write and draw for my own sake, so I could give a shit.
offer me something, and I'll care, or else fuck off.
and let it be noted:
the phrase "fuck off and die" is more beautiful than a thousand images.
A picture may be worth a thousand words, but that excludes the words, "fuck off."

embarrassment
Posted a year agoThere's 3 kinds of embarrassment:
Shame
Guilt
and Cringe.
Shame is when you fail to be what others expect of you.
Guilt is when you fail to live up to your own standards, exclusive of everyone else's.
And Cringe is the secondhand embarrassment we induce on our peers by our poor standards on social media.
I no longer care about any of these things.
I have no shame, as I don't care what my role in things is anymore, so there's no point in being ashamed when I could give a shit about being of use to anyone.
if anything I'd rather sabotage everyone else's roles. if I could.
I have no guilt because no matter what standard I hold for myself, it just won't ever matter. something will always sabotage my own attempts to live up to anything I value. if not my own laziness then someone else's carelessness.
I take full fault for that, it's just I'm exhausted, incapable of caring. in too much miserable pain to care anymore about anything else but this constant, life-draining suffering I experience daily now.
And I certainly don't care about being "cringe".
If anything I hope I make everyone cringe themselves to death sometimes.
We should make the entire empire we have to live under cringe, honestly.
or whatever that one latin american quote was.
The ONLY reason people care about this kinda bullshit is because social esteem is so interwoven with personal well-being.
you have to live up to others standards to make coin to get bread.
you have to live up to your own for the sake of "closure".
and on the internet you have to be "based" to someone to allow your social media brand to have any hope of succeeding.
if there's anything truly "cringe", it's this entire system of counting the value of people based on anything else but their intrinsic worth as a person.
and yet everyone does this anyway. EVERYONE plays this game of scoring peoples' value on a hierarchy. the whole system does it, even if nobody thinks that way personally.
because society is a giant machine, even if that machine is made of people.
and machines are always impersonal.

I now hope they get washed away.
I hope the bad gets washed away, and things get better.

Wash away this hell, extinguish all it's fires, drown all the demons.
And let new life bloom here.
Under a blue sky, filled with something like heaven.
like what heaven used to mean.
before nothing but slime flipped all the words about to make themselves feel better and others worse.
I hope I get to float away on that new sea, to that blue sky.
and I hope we can have something better than ever.

mrminosI probably shouldn't say it, but I need to leave this here.
He made something for me years ago, and now he's gone.
It was probably the best thing anyone ever made for me.
I look at what he made, I always have that image up on my computer.
I wish I had stayed in touch.
I don't even know how he died.
if it was nature, it's just life's cruelty.
if it was suicide, I feel shame.
I feel shame for everyone I've let down, even if I am unable to change.
pride month is just shame month for me.
I hope he's at peace, or can be. something positive.
there's nothing else to say.
but I wish I could say more.
the shouts on his page haunt me.
just the fact that someone said he should find what he never had on earth.
I wish I knew what it meant.
I just hope it refers to wanting to be an animal, and not that he was suffering.
I hate myself when I think about if I could have helped others.
I hate this world when I think how it seems like nobody helps people who suffer, unless they benefit.
I hate it most when I think about how it's ultimately because there's nothing anyone can do.
I hope somebody helped him, as much as they could.
I'm sorry.
He no longer is here. but I hope he's somewhere.
And if he's nowhere, I hope it's nice there.
If it's possible.
If not, I'm sorry.
I'm saying sorry, even if he isn't there to hear it.
Because There's nothing else I can do.
I'm sorry.
If you care, I loved you. as much as I could.
maybe not as anything other than anyone else, but as much as I could.
I'm sorry.
I have nothing left to say.
some little things
Posted a year agoI wish the trash would come back.
I miss friends who hate me.
I wish they could hear the music.
I wish in hearing it, they'd feel worse than I do hearing it.
It's better that way.
Everything is so awful, yet not even as awful as it should be.
Only just good enough so you can't complain about how much it hurts without someone making you more miserable for saying anything at all.
I should have a better sense of humour at this point.
But I am sick of all of it.
And I barely said a fraction of how I feel.
Not possible to say it well enough, anyway.

weird "non-furry" furries
Posted a year agoIt's really odd how there's a group just for "I am not part of the furry community" on FA.
Also anyone who puts their species as "human".
It's like, on some level they're more disconnected from reality than even the most deluded furries, just in the other direction.
Because it's an underlying reality that every furry is actually human, at least physically.
I couldn't speak for "metaphysical" furries because 1. the supernatural isn't real. 2. if it is real in spite of me saying it isn't, I by definition can say nothing about it that applies. unless I said so "metaphysically", which I wouldn't even know how to say.
So people who have to qualify if obviously do so to counter furries who would just identify them as a furry anyway, but the thing is they can still just do that anyway.
It's painfully awkward, and should be done privately if at all, but you can still just do it as long as you don't bother the person you do it with, with it.
One way or another, even if you don't identify as furry, the fact that you use a site named "fur-affinity" means you're now effectively part of the group to those outside of it who deem you so.
That's just the shit you get into when you bother with identity, or non-identity.
If you really wanna escape this cycle, you gotta drop identity entirely, human or otherwise.
Actualize insight into the reality of contingency of identity, forgo the notion of an absolute self, embrace the underlying emptiness of the truth.
Do not say "I am this" or "I am not that" unless it is practically necessary to do so.
maybe then you'll break the wheel, I haven't, but that's mainly because of circumstance.

The one thing that furries have done wrong for decades.
Posted a year agoThe shorthand for "anthropomorphic" should be "Anthrope", not "Anthro."
It might sound cooler but it's wrong.
I could go on to list every variation of this that furries do wrong.
terms like macro, taur, and the misuse of the concept of nagas.
but just presume they do it all wrong.
because it's both funnier that way and also because it's inherently more interesting to be part of a group that's always wrong.
groups that are socially normalized are also complacently smug and boring, that's just a fact of life. - which is why a group becomes boring the moment it's acceptable.
that's related to the entire reason why people use "slangy" terms like "anthro" to begin with because of this addiction to transgression that is the main reason people are attracted to doing shit like this anyway.
and on that note, glory to acephale

The Unavoidability of The Other
Posted a year agoSome people seem to think you can escape what is called "The General Peer".
You cannot.
No matter what, when you, or me, speak outwards like we do on sites like this, there's two people we always speak to:
1. the real people we know must be there.
2. this "other one", this imaginary placeholder for everyone else.
We imagine them as the worst, the best, everything inbetween, and more, everything else one can imagine, and the vague sense of everything you cannot.
It is god, the devil, the spirit, the soul, aliens, animals, ghosts, the state, good, evil, everything.
Every. Single. type of imaginable person. and everything else.
AI too, obviously, but they're obviously a bit stupid.
Point is it's the "other" you imagine in your head to take the place of every being that ever observes you.
And the fact is we don't want to see that one. but we want to make ourselves fit to be seen by them.
A line comes to mind as to why you don't want to see the perfect person, it's very simple:
"beware of what you want, it might want you more!"
Because once you know perfection exists, you can't go back.
The Perfect Book demands conformity to it's doctrine, and makes every other book redundant.
It's the same for any other form of this.
If a perfect thing came into this world, everything else would become redundant.
There's consolation in the thought that will likely never happen, because a perfect being wouldn't need anything but itself.
But even then, the horrible possibility of a perfect book that could randomly fall from the sky one day is a terrifying prospect to me.
I just know it would end horribly, beyond horribly.
It's good that nothing like that will probably ever happen, I would hope.
You cannot.
No matter what, when you, or me, speak outwards like we do on sites like this, there's two people we always speak to:
1. the real people we know must be there.
2. this "other one", this imaginary placeholder for everyone else.
We imagine them as the worst, the best, everything inbetween, and more, everything else one can imagine, and the vague sense of everything you cannot.
It is god, the devil, the spirit, the soul, aliens, animals, ghosts, the state, good, evil, everything.
Every. Single. type of imaginable person. and everything else.
AI too, obviously, but they're obviously a bit stupid.

the discordian group thing is more of a "people repellent...
Posted a year agoI really find it odd that people even post anything about religion as a tag on their page here, on what's basically a porn site.
you're never going to convince people of anything, they will persist in considering their ideas as perfect. no matter what. even if they never say a word to you about it. and people only promote humility out of insecurity, if you ask me.
meanwhile the reason I have it is more just an advertisement to people already in a given group and against people against the group, than anything.
