Streaming Resources!
Posted 10 years agoSo here's the skinny about all I do for livestreaming ^^
I have three types of streams I do.
- Regular Art Streams
- Game Night!
- Video Game Stream :)
The regular art streams are where I take a night and color a bunch of images from my in progress folder, and at the same time, have the chatroom up on the stream too which I chat in while also having a randomized playlist of my favorite videos up in the lower corner of the stream.
Game Night is an idea I got from a combination of my #1 fan rhine_seleno and from watching old Totally Rad Show episodes XD this is where I host a skype chat and me and a few others play board games and custom games online and stream it :) games such as an online Cards Against Humanity, games from the Totally Rad Show like Media Mashup and WHat Is That, a furry version of Guess WHo XD and any number of other things I think would be fun :)
Video game streams are most obvious, it's where I go and do a let's play of a game XD not much else to be said hehe. I have the chatroom up and play a game usually with microphone on.
The way to be notified when a stream begins, or to chat on the stream, is to go to these skype groups I have setup. skype:?chat&blob=AsSaVB20BZv8GP9B7qxrfc9x57uNehUyg3QbyB4R3YmVjFCXhunXqikVMhxBQNaOawjGohzUaMfwbc2L-LIncP1L2Fg for the notifications group, where posting is disallowed, only I'm allowed to post and it's a notice of when a stream begins. and then skype:?chat&blob=lNnmsQLTnBm19erTQIEkLy3M5HyBER1VjGE1zV90YDFeH9OWisq7P_L_ for the streaming chatroom group where you can join in and chat away!
Usually the streams take place either on Picarto or Furstream, I prefer furstream a bit more though recently have been using picarto, either way, here's both links :D

3 DOLLAR ARTS! GO HLP MY MATE
Posted 10 years agoYeah ya heard right! He's offering 3 dollars for arts :D xaviermaldonado1
Ok, so there are a few little details XD
- He's only doing them during livestreams for now.
- the 3 dollars is for a dragon (specifically his dragon species, Maldonians) version ofyour character or whoever you wish :)
Aaaand those are the only downsides XD hehe. if I hadn't alreayd gotten a bunch fom him i would get a bunch more lol. So go do it!
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16278484/
copypaste from the thing :)
Hey guys, I'm having this sorta special going on here. For 3 dollars, I can change your character into one of my draga species! Sadly it's only limited to streaming for now, I find it better and faster to know how I can make changes right then and there when the person who's commissioned me is there chatting.
How this works is pretty basic. If your interested in seeing your character as a draga. Simply pick one of the three sizes/poses in the picture above. Head over to my stream when I'm available and tell me you want to be a draga. I'll send you a link to my paypal and once I know the money is there, I'll get to work on draga-izing you. It's always helpful to have a picture reference handy, but I can work with text as well.
There's no limitation as Dragas can be incredibly diverse. If yer a naga, sure, I can dragaize you. Taur, yesh, I can do that. Multi-limbed, #uck yeah I can! Insect, robot, fox, aquatic, bird. All of them are completely welcomed! The three draga sketches below show case what I can do!
However, if you possibly just want a side character, I can do that do! If you like a certain character or monster from monster genre animes [[IE Digimon/Pokemon/Legendz/Yugioh]] just grab a picture reference and add whatever changes you might like for your character with the monster you've chosen as a base. For example, let's say you like Growlmon and want some Mega Charizard X features and all done in a purplish color. Boom, new character in about half and hour to an hour flat...depending how complicated the character is.
So yeah, boiling it down. Wanna be a draga? Hand me 3 bucks with pose number selected and with references handy, and I'll dragaize you in under an hour. Only available during streams sadly for the moment. See you around then!

Alt Character Month Continues!
Posted 10 years agohehe, yyyup :) cause I got a LOT of alternate character pics to upload XD of course this also means none of them are adult, well, sexual at least. dont worry guys XD I know you're wondering where the smut from me is XD it's coming after all those alternate character pics are up :)
It's Alternate Character Month!
Posted 10 years agoOk, well, at least a few weeks of it XD hehe. I've looked at my commissions and especially what I've een uploading out of my "to upload" que and seeing that I haven't uploaded art for much else other than Iron and Merc lately, so i'm gonna take a little bit and upload a big chunk of art all focused NOT on Iron and Mercury or even Greg, but rather the other side characters and non characters I have. So enjoy meeting afew of them and getting to know them :D
Sorry if Im extra non responsive today
Posted 10 years agoMy main 3tb hard drive has decided to die on me and my initial plans for recovery including letting it sit unplugged overnight an pulling the actual drive out and using an alternate case to plug it in have failed. And my last backup 2 days ago was the first backup i'd bothered to do in months and it was very incomplete. So uhhh... recovery/rebuilding mode go... X_X
it seems that my projects folders are all intact from the backup and of course my google drive an dropbox are safe, it looks like, hopefully, all that was lost were a bunch of my TV shows and Movies and Youtube vids, which aren't too hard to replace.

Cell Phone Keyboards [Rant]
Posted 11 years ago( copypate from tumblr: http://irongut1.tumblr.com/post/110.....-keyboard-rant )
HOLY SHIT am I pissed! I am just, fed right up to my ass over cell phone keyboards!
Ok, so my old cell phone was a Motorola Droid 4. WONDERFUL phone. I got it mostly for the fact that it had a slide-out keyboard. Had a perfect layout of keys, solid click on each key, it was very easy to type exactly what I wanted to type without hitting 2 keys at once or having a key click not register correctly. In fact, it's where I do/did most of my writing on for my stories and blogs and such.
Well a few months ago it's digitizer began to fail on me in ways, where it wouldn't register swipes of my finger, register taps that weren't there, etc etc, basically failing. I had a choice. I could spend money and get it repaired and stay with the Droid 4, or make use of my free 2 year upgrade and get a NEW phone, one that unfortunately DIDN'T have a slide out keyboard... BECAUSE NOBODY FUCKING MAKES ONE ANYMORE! WHY THE FUCK HAVEN'T THEY!? God fucking damnit! I mean, is it really that hard to offer that option? I would have PAID an extra 40 to 50 bucks on my new phone upgrade just to have a good keyboard on there! but NOPE, the Droid 5 not only hasn't come out but right now it looks like it might NEVER come out, and nobody else is doing shit for keyboards except for the cheaper less powerful phones. (Here's a little article to compound this part of my rant that I couldn't agree with more: http://hardware-beta.slashdot.org/s.....where-are-they )
So I end up settling on getting a Samsung Galaxy S4. Because it's a good looking phone, works really well, decent screen size, good battery life, and overall, I've been super pleased with it! I also got it because when researching what phone to get I also researched what peripherals were available, specifically, cases that had a slide out keyboard attached. While the vast majority of them were iPhone cases (and I am SO NOT getting an iPhone, for reasons which would fill another rant page), Galaxy S4 cases were the next most prevalent ones. So I got my new phone and I ordered on amazon the most popular keyboard case for it, figuring it'd be good enough that i could slide right into using it and keeping it in my pocket, and alll will be well... http://smile.amazon.com/MegaGear-Bl.....xy+s4+keyboard
Fuck was I wrong. Holy shit I was so wrong. Firstly, the case itself was a NIGHTMARE in terms of thickness, it basiclly turned what was a sleek, barely quarter inch thick phone, into a GIGANTIC nearly one inch thick monster that took up my entire pocket! Now that just wasn't gonna do. I eventually tore the case apart and essentially just kept the bluetooth keyboard without the case and figured it'd work out ok hopefully after buying my second keyboard down in the next paragraph and hating it even more. But as I use it, while it does have MOSTLY the key layout I want, the keyboard is nowhere near as good as my Droid 4's was. Granted it does have some great features like the battery life, backlight, and the hard plastic keys. But the keys have no spacing between them so I'm constantly hitting multiple keys at once, then they are crappily made on the sensors so that the key taps I make about 1/8th the time do not register, and when I go back to look at the paragraph I wrote, every single word seems to be missing at least 1 letter! Then it's range is shit as well (which i don't hold against it, it was designed to be a CASE after all, so it's range was only meant to be about a foot or so anyways). And god damnit I hate it.
Ok, let's try ANOTHER keyboard and see how it works. My big problem with the last one was size. So let's try this next keyboard from the list, which is billed on it's size being ultra thin and in fact, uses magnets to attach to the case, thereby meaning that there's no extra thickness for hinges or sliders, or anything! http://smile.amazon.com/OXA-Bluetoo.....xy+s4+keyboard WOW! this thing is THIN THIN THIN! I like it already! And then I had to go and try to actually use it D8. Oh dear god what have I done! No backlight, even SHITTIER registration on the keys, I'm barely managing to complete a word correctly using it, and the thing is so flimsy the plate with the keys on it is actually falling off of the case housing the electronics! Not to mention the layout is far worse than the previous one. Ok ok, I'm gonna try tear apart the previous keyboard from the case and try using it just by itself (as mentioned before) and re-sell this keyboard and get some of my money back.
A month later and "AUUUGHHH! I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE! I don't know if the next keyboard I use is gonna be better or worse but i can barely stand using this one anymore!" http://www.amazon.com/iPazzPort-Wir.....tooth+keyboard "FUCK THIS THING DIDN'T TELL ME THAT THE BLUETOOTH IS NOT BUILT IN! IT'S BLUETOOTH USB! I CAN'T USE IT WITH MY FUCKING PHONE!" *returns that to get my money back* http://smile.amazon.com/Wireless-Re.....xy+s4+keyboard "FUCKING FUCK FUCK! RUBBERIZED KEYS!?! THEY DIDN'T TELL ME THE KEYS WERE RUBBERIZED!!! I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO PRESS THE KEYS ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE KEYBOARD IN ORDER TO GET THE KEY CLICK TO REGISTER! FUCK! AND NOW I'VE LOST 15$ ON THE SHIPPING ON THIS ONE TOO!" *resells it to get SOME of my money back, getting ultra desperate now* http://www.ebay.com/itm/30149890236.....%3AMEBIDX%3AIT "Ok, this one's keys look to be plastic and in fact remind me a bit of laptop keyboard keys from the picture! At least it doesn't say that they're rubber in the description, it doesn't have arrow keys like i want but let's try it." *arrives* "FUCKING HELL THEY'RE FUCKING RUBBER KEYS!!!!!"
And I'm sitting here, having tried probably 4 of the only good looking thumb-typing sized keyboards on the market, and all of them are at least partially shit if not all the way shit! I mean, HOLY FUCK is this incredibly frustrating! I don't think the features list I'm looking for is THAT OUTRAGEOUS is it?!
- Plastic fucking keys that have good registration on them
- Keys that have a bit of spacing between them so it's easy to feel which key you are pressing
- Backlighting on the keys if at all possible
- Arrow keys ARRANGED in the typical fashion we are all used to on standard QWERTY keyboards!
- number keys across the top.
- NO TRACPAD. IT'S AN ANDROID TOUCHSCREEN DEVICE! THERE IS NO CURSOR FOR A TRACPAD! ALL IT'S DOING IS GETTING IN THE WAY OF MY RIGHT HAND AND MAKING MY THUMB HAVE TO REACH FOR THE KEYS! ( http://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0093ITXOE?psc=1 )
- a Delete key in the TOP RIGHT CORNER of the keyboard! Why the hell do all these mini-keyboards have the delete key below the P key or right above the enter key?! Do YOU ever use a QWERTY keyboard where the delete key is below the P key?! I'm looking at 3 of them now (two laptops and one plug in traditional keyboard) and none of them have that shit!
- a size that I can fucking use by holding the keyboard in my hands and using my damn thumbs! I see so many foldable keyboards out there in my searches and you know what I'm gonna do if I have a keyboard that I place on a desk and start typing? I'M GONNA BRING MY FUCKING LAPTOP INSTEAD! I want a keyboard that i can use while standing up and walking someplace, maybe sitting someplace at like a coffee shop or somewhere where table space is at a premium, and you get the idea!
Is that really too damn much to ask?! Or even better, is it REALLLLLY that hard for just ONE of you asshole phone manufacturers to MAKE A PHONE WITH AN AWESOME KEYBOARD SO I DIDN'T HAVE TO WASTE NEARLY A HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS SIFTING THROUGH ADD-ON KEYBOARDS JUST TO FIND NONE THAT I LIKE?!
HOLY SHIT am I pissed! I am just, fed right up to my ass over cell phone keyboards!

Well a few months ago it's digitizer began to fail on me in ways, where it wouldn't register swipes of my finger, register taps that weren't there, etc etc, basically failing. I had a choice. I could spend money and get it repaired and stay with the Droid 4, or make use of my free 2 year upgrade and get a NEW phone, one that unfortunately DIDN'T have a slide out keyboard... BECAUSE NOBODY FUCKING MAKES ONE ANYMORE! WHY THE FUCK HAVEN'T THEY!? God fucking damnit! I mean, is it really that hard to offer that option? I would have PAID an extra 40 to 50 bucks on my new phone upgrade just to have a good keyboard on there! but NOPE, the Droid 5 not only hasn't come out but right now it looks like it might NEVER come out, and nobody else is doing shit for keyboards except for the cheaper less powerful phones. (Here's a little article to compound this part of my rant that I couldn't agree with more: http://hardware-beta.slashdot.org/s.....where-are-they )
So I end up settling on getting a Samsung Galaxy S4. Because it's a good looking phone, works really well, decent screen size, good battery life, and overall, I've been super pleased with it! I also got it because when researching what phone to get I also researched what peripherals were available, specifically, cases that had a slide out keyboard attached. While the vast majority of them were iPhone cases (and I am SO NOT getting an iPhone, for reasons which would fill another rant page), Galaxy S4 cases were the next most prevalent ones. So I got my new phone and I ordered on amazon the most popular keyboard case for it, figuring it'd be good enough that i could slide right into using it and keeping it in my pocket, and alll will be well... http://smile.amazon.com/MegaGear-Bl.....xy+s4+keyboard
Fuck was I wrong. Holy shit I was so wrong. Firstly, the case itself was a NIGHTMARE in terms of thickness, it basiclly turned what was a sleek, barely quarter inch thick phone, into a GIGANTIC nearly one inch thick monster that took up my entire pocket! Now that just wasn't gonna do. I eventually tore the case apart and essentially just kept the bluetooth keyboard without the case and figured it'd work out ok hopefully after buying my second keyboard down in the next paragraph and hating it even more. But as I use it, while it does have MOSTLY the key layout I want, the keyboard is nowhere near as good as my Droid 4's was. Granted it does have some great features like the battery life, backlight, and the hard plastic keys. But the keys have no spacing between them so I'm constantly hitting multiple keys at once, then they are crappily made on the sensors so that the key taps I make about 1/8th the time do not register, and when I go back to look at the paragraph I wrote, every single word seems to be missing at least 1 letter! Then it's range is shit as well (which i don't hold against it, it was designed to be a CASE after all, so it's range was only meant to be about a foot or so anyways). And god damnit I hate it.
Ok, let's try ANOTHER keyboard and see how it works. My big problem with the last one was size. So let's try this next keyboard from the list, which is billed on it's size being ultra thin and in fact, uses magnets to attach to the case, thereby meaning that there's no extra thickness for hinges or sliders, or anything! http://smile.amazon.com/OXA-Bluetoo.....xy+s4+keyboard WOW! this thing is THIN THIN THIN! I like it already! And then I had to go and try to actually use it D8. Oh dear god what have I done! No backlight, even SHITTIER registration on the keys, I'm barely managing to complete a word correctly using it, and the thing is so flimsy the plate with the keys on it is actually falling off of the case housing the electronics! Not to mention the layout is far worse than the previous one. Ok ok, I'm gonna try tear apart the previous keyboard from the case and try using it just by itself (as mentioned before) and re-sell this keyboard and get some of my money back.
A month later and "AUUUGHHH! I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE! I don't know if the next keyboard I use is gonna be better or worse but i can barely stand using this one anymore!" http://www.amazon.com/iPazzPort-Wir.....tooth+keyboard "FUCK THIS THING DIDN'T TELL ME THAT THE BLUETOOTH IS NOT BUILT IN! IT'S BLUETOOTH USB! I CAN'T USE IT WITH MY FUCKING PHONE!" *returns that to get my money back* http://smile.amazon.com/Wireless-Re.....xy+s4+keyboard "FUCKING FUCK FUCK! RUBBERIZED KEYS!?! THEY DIDN'T TELL ME THE KEYS WERE RUBBERIZED!!! I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO PRESS THE KEYS ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE KEYBOARD IN ORDER TO GET THE KEY CLICK TO REGISTER! FUCK! AND NOW I'VE LOST 15$ ON THE SHIPPING ON THIS ONE TOO!" *resells it to get SOME of my money back, getting ultra desperate now* http://www.ebay.com/itm/30149890236.....%3AMEBIDX%3AIT "Ok, this one's keys look to be plastic and in fact remind me a bit of laptop keyboard keys from the picture! At least it doesn't say that they're rubber in the description, it doesn't have arrow keys like i want but let's try it." *arrives* "FUCKING HELL THEY'RE FUCKING RUBBER KEYS!!!!!"
And I'm sitting here, having tried probably 4 of the only good looking thumb-typing sized keyboards on the market, and all of them are at least partially shit if not all the way shit! I mean, HOLY FUCK is this incredibly frustrating! I don't think the features list I'm looking for is THAT OUTRAGEOUS is it?!
- Plastic fucking keys that have good registration on them
- Keys that have a bit of spacing between them so it's easy to feel which key you are pressing
- Backlighting on the keys if at all possible
- Arrow keys ARRANGED in the typical fashion we are all used to on standard QWERTY keyboards!
- number keys across the top.
- NO TRACPAD. IT'S AN ANDROID TOUCHSCREEN DEVICE! THERE IS NO CURSOR FOR A TRACPAD! ALL IT'S DOING IS GETTING IN THE WAY OF MY RIGHT HAND AND MAKING MY THUMB HAVE TO REACH FOR THE KEYS! ( http://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0093ITXOE?psc=1 )
- a Delete key in the TOP RIGHT CORNER of the keyboard! Why the hell do all these mini-keyboards have the delete key below the P key or right above the enter key?! Do YOU ever use a QWERTY keyboard where the delete key is below the P key?! I'm looking at 3 of them now (two laptops and one plug in traditional keyboard) and none of them have that shit!
- a size that I can fucking use by holding the keyboard in my hands and using my damn thumbs! I see so many foldable keyboards out there in my searches and you know what I'm gonna do if I have a keyboard that I place on a desk and start typing? I'M GONNA BRING MY FUCKING LAPTOP INSTEAD! I want a keyboard that i can use while standing up and walking someplace, maybe sitting someplace at like a coffee shop or somewhere where table space is at a premium, and you get the idea!
Is that really too damn much to ask?! Or even better, is it REALLLLLY that hard for just ONE of you asshole phone manufacturers to MAKE A PHONE WITH AN AWESOME KEYBOARD SO I DIDN'T HAVE TO WASTE NEARLY A HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS SIFTING THROUGH ADD-ON KEYBOARDS JUST TO FIND NONE THAT I LIKE?!
The Ten Commandments To Becoming A Well Known Furry Artist
Posted 11 years agoHeh. Yeah, I recently wanted to do this because, I still am astonished sometimes at how much a following I have XD I mean, I have more followers than i can count, can't even go on skype regularly without being mobbed XD and can legitimately say I have a #1 fan for 2 of my 4 major characters XD heh. it's weiiiird. But, I got here by doing these ten things. I wanted to come up with an even ten, but there's more advise I can give, the majority of it though is covered here, and the rest can be summe up as "Be Genuine" for the most part XD so without further delay!
1. Make your work easy to find!
As much as you may hate using sites like furaffinity or Deviantart, the simple fact is that they are the places where mostly everyone conglomerates, and follows their favorite artists and their works, and if you are not there, your audience is shrunk wayyyy down, or to put it more simply, even if you catch every last fish in the pond, casting a single net in the ocean will land you more fish. Other tips include things like TAGGING. TAG YOUR STUFF so that people searching for specific things will find your stuff (this includes good tagging practices like tagging the species, type of art it is, adult content, etc). In general, keep everything simply and don't scatter yourself, even if it's something like having multiple accounts, have them link to each other in their profile information with text saying "this is my adult art account!", make it so that all a person has to do is find one of your accounts anywhere online and from there within two clicks they can get to any other account or collection of stuff you do, and be clearly directed to them.
2. Post regularly!
Most people who end up becoming popular do so by not “disappearing” for months at a time. Have a set schedule that you make for your postings, even if it’s something as simple as “1 new picture a week every friday” And it’s not that bad of an idea to create a buffer for yourself, so that even if you have had a slow week, you aren’t left with nothing to post, because you posted all the pics you did the previous week at once, which leads me to.
3. Don’t Flood!
Do not flood your users inboxes with a dozen or more pictures at once, the only time when that makes sense to do is if the flood is of a comic or a series of interconnected images. All other times, it’s simply an annoyance, especially when like I said before, you can space them out and have a much more even and steady tempo to your releases!
4. Post stuff you AREN’T 100% proud of!
Your work serves no purpose simply sitting on your hard drive with it’s bits decaying ever so slowly, put it into your posting que! Even if it’s not going to get posted until you have a dry spell long enough to be charitably called a desert, make sure that you are willing to post the stuff you aren’t all the way proud of! You’d be amazed what some people will like!
5. Create stuff that YOU like!
Don’t bend to your followers every whim if it doesn’t line up with what YOU want to do. Yes, you may earn the ire of some, but those people are worth losing for the trade-off of doing work that you yourself can be a fan of, because when you are doing stuff you love, you WANT to do it, which makes motivation and inspiration easier! Not just that, but don’t also feel like you HAVE to do adult or fetish art in order to get favorites. Yes, that’s a faster way to get noticed, but unless you are going to commit to being adult on a regular or semi-regular basis, people will respect you less because it will feel to them like you tried to fool them, which in a way, you did.
6. Be grateful and optimistic!
Just because you’re not getting a hundred comments on your work doesn’t mean you’re a failure or that you should be disappointed! Every last favorite and comment you get is a statement by the viewer that “I like your work!” It doesn’t matter whether it only takes one click to make a favorite and that seems lazy, THEY STILL MADE THAT CLICK! and that MEANS SOMETHING.
7. Don’t compare your work or popularity to others!
I cannot emphasise this enough! Comparing yourself to others is the fastest way to get down on yourself because even if you’re doing amazingly, there are always people doing ten times better than you are. You can’t judge yourself by how well others are doing! you have to set your own standards, and I would suggest don’t even HAVE any standards! Be proud of the number of watchers/followers you have no matter HOW few they are!
8. Be Creative and diverse!
Don’t just do the same thing over and over again, unless you’re actively trying to be a fetish artist. Make use of all your interests in images and postings, as well as trying different mediums as well from Writing to Animation to comics.
9. Engage with your audience and the community!
Respond to every comment you get, make your fans and followers feel appreciated! and don’t forget to be active as well in terms of being someone who favorite and comments on others work as well. People won't find you if you just sit back and wait for them to find you, you have to put yourself out there and give them the chance to see you and get interested, be it from your avatar, your username, or what you said.
10. Be Patient!
Nobody gets to have a zillion followers overnight! Persistence is the key to gaining popularity and attention. It’s a snowball effect, and it is slow at first, but stick to what you are doing and don’t give up, because eventually, if you continue to be active and productive, people WILL begin to notice you.

A night of dreams <3
Posted 11 years agoOh how I wish they were furry or had to do with my characters XD but still, what they were was grand because I literally couldn't remember the last time I dreamed like I told my #1 fan Rem recently, and tonight I woke up[ after having two near lucid dreams <3
The first was really silly and simple, it was me talking to my cousins who happen to be boy and girl twins in my room, while making a few mods to a case of mine that housed some of my juggling equipment, specifically devil sticks, after finding out they did it too and having a quick devil stick jam session with everyone. While repairing I had the urge to bring up and talk about the Mystery Skull's Ghost video and was so happy when I found my girl cousin had seen it and loved it just as I finally finished that dream by cleaning out and ffinishing up the devil stuck holding tube.
The next dream was much longer and oddly, MUCH more linear and sense making than a ton of dreams I've had :) it was about Liberty Science Center up in the outskirts of NYC. For some reason I was in the back parking lots behind the building, past midnight, wondering if I could sneak in. I did manage to find the employee entrance in back and it was unlocked. I made my way inside, and inside I found one or two employees just hanging around, and with them was fricking Bill Nye the science guy. I was a bit flabberghasted, just as they were about me being there. A security guy rushed up towards me from deeper in the building, to which I raised my hands and showed him I wasnt gonna put up a fight or anything, and he backed down as he stood by and asked me to leave of course. I don't know exactly what I said though, but somehow I weaseled my way into delaying my leaving some, and ended up chatting in the doorway with Bill Nye as he showed me that he was a fan of apple products, having both an iphone, ipod classic, and some other device on him, along with an android luckily. I showed him my phone as one of the others came in and started a discussing phones as I showed my droid 4 and how I liked it cause it had a physical keyboard, and then suddenly we found ourselves interrputed when someone yelled out "OH MY GOD" and we after a moment of pause, turned to look out the glass wall windows to the right of the building, to see a plane crash in progress. It looked like a black colored space shuttle, and it was not crashing violently, but enough to produce a fireball as it tried to roll to a stop on the runway without a set of wings, before turning right, and circling the entrance we were in, and then crashing into the big theater (which in my dream was opened up and being rebuilt) on the side of the center, causing it to collapse. Then the parking deck behind it collapsed as wrell. Luckily I didnt park there, and it was time for me to go, so I spent some time looking for my red truck among the space where I parked, unable to find it cause it was like a dark, low ceilinged cavern of debris. Eventually I returned to the center and basically I told Bill my intentions to get into the center and he kinda understood I wanted to gank myself some free passes to the exhibit and such XD and he let me through and I went up the dark stairway into the foyer, where I quickly entered the box office, and rturned on the light to rummage for free passes. I guess there were people waiting outside at that point for passes, it having gone to nearly morning at that point, and so as I rushed for passes people started filing in and heading for the office. I told them "no we're not open yet, hang on just a little while" as Bill came back upstairs and asked what I was doing, and I said, I was looking for passed. He subtly and sneakily pointed down by his stomach to a little crumpled up ticket envelope in the wall plant lining, and I quickly picked it up, headed into the more private spot, and opened it up to indeed find my redeemabhle free passes, then he took the lead and snuck me a key to another smalll doorway that happened to be a mail delivery slot across the way, and inside was a whole apology letter and more free stucff for me, I dont remember what it was, but I was really happy. Then Bill climbed in to sit atop the edge of the small doorway, and playfully lean back as I grabbed his ankle to keep him from falling back in, until I saw that was his intention and let him go, and he tumbled once and then fell backwards looking at me down the looong shaft of contstruction, until he bounced off a workman's ladder and tdisappeared from view, and I left. Then like a TV show the camera in my head showed him standing back up and poking his head visibly into view of the still open door, saying something reverant about fostering science and imagination as he chuckled about "using just a few mirrors and some lights, you can fool anyone" referring to how he just made it look like he fell a hundred feet or so and bounced off a ladder, before again, like a tv show, took a step and disappeared from view, and then the dark and ironic part of my brain took control and flashed the image of him vertically impaled on a steel rod like a horror movie, it going through his chin and neck and out the top of hids head, before we heard his voice over going "People are so easy to fool sometimes!" and then me waking up again.
That was so movie or end of a hhalloween episode of Bill Nye like XD except a bit gorier XD haha. I personally loved it :) and like I said, it is so very cherished because I hardly if EVER dream anymore. so yeah :)

Gonna stream tonight!
Posted 11 years agoYup! hehe, I am indeed :) now that I'm feeling a bit better after my vent journal and I do have some free time tonight with a shift off work, and not working until the evening again tomorrow, I'm gonna bear down and get some fucking art done! woo! heh. I'll be starting the stream at 9PM Eastern time more than likely, and going til the wee hours of the morning. so yay!
http://furstre.am/stream/irongut1
And a little incentive, for those of you who DO join in the stream and especially go active in the chatroom, will get a link to a copy of my new short story which I'm not sure if I'm going to bundle with patches of Gray when it goes up for sale, or put it up by itself, cause it's a bit too short to sell on it's own XD The story is called "Unit 109" and is the story of Steel, the feral robot sex machine :)

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKK
Posted 11 years agoI just had to goddamn do that cause Im fucking pissed off... Ugh... I need a vacation.
First I get into an accident on my way to Furpocalypse. No big deal, nobody was injured, truck stil functions perfectly as a vehicle, and I have a $750 deductable on my insurance so even if the estimate is 2.5k to replace the bumpers and everything, I'm gonna pay 750. Thats still a hell of a fucking lot.
Then I got my goddamn parents yelling at me night after night about fucking job searching and how wll I'm doing with it, meanwhjile I'm working for both an NFL stadium, a movie theater, and then in the summer a concert stadium! HOW THE FUCK MANY JOBS YOU WANT ME TO HAVE ASSHOLES?! YES I KNOW I'M NOT MAKING A HIGH PAY RATE AT ANY OF THEM BUT YOU SYA I NEED TO GO GET A BETTER JOB NOW, ASAP, AND WHEN I GO "Well then I think I'll take a week off from work at the theater so I have the time to do that" YOU GO FUCKING APE-SHIT ON ME?! UGHJ! I DONT HAVE THE GODDAMN TIME TO DO THAT SHIT AND NOT END UP PISSED OFF LIKE I AM RIGHT NOW! I'M JUST FUCKING GLAD I CAN KEEP IT COOL IN FRONT OF THE DAMN CUSTOMERS AND NOT BLOW THE HELL UP AT THEM FOR EING THE IDIOTS THEY OFTEN ARE!
AND THEN! WHAT SETS ME OFF ATOP ALL THOSE THINGS IS MY GODDAMN PHONE SCREEN DECIDED "OH! I SHOULD STOP WORKING RELIABLY AND START RANDOMLY REGISTERING TOUCHES THAT AREN'T THERE AND NOT RECOGNIZING WHEN MY USER TOUCHES THE SCREEN!" And then finding the "solution" to that online of being squeezing the screen somewhat to re-engage the digitizer, and while that worked moderately well, tonight it decided to not fucking work well at all, enough so that I got pissed off at my phone and when trying to squeeze the screen fucking SNAPPED THE DAMN CHARGING PORT INSIDE THE PHONE! SO NOW IT'S NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO CHARGE WITHOUT ME PHYSICALLY HOLDING THE CABLE AT AN ODD ANGLE! I'M GONNA NEED TO EITHER REPAIR OR REPLACE THIS AMN PHONE NOW WHICH IS GONNA BE ANOTHER TRIPLE DIGIT NUMBER OF DOLLARS OUT OF MY FUCKING POCKET! AUUUGH! FUCK!!!!
I'm ok guys, really, I just need to take a break from work to vent off some steam, I'm working too many damn days in a row, especially morning shifts which I hate and clopens (combination of closing shift followed by an opening shift the next day). And my last 2 days in a row I had off that was NOT filled up by me going to Furpocalypse was like, 3 goddamn weeks ago. As noted by the fact that I haven't streamed at all lately. Goddamnit. I'm just gonna put in that I cant work at all during the monday-friday next week. I need time to unwind. I swear I'm so tight right now, I never ever post vent stuff like this anymore lately cause I haven't needed to. I'm very good at keeping things under control, but, fuck...
I'll be ok, don't worry about me, hehe. I just need some time and shit. Ugh... I just hate that my parents aren't gonna understand the idea of "You just took 3 days to go to a convention!" "Uh, yeah. 3 days to go to a convention is totally different than taking time to sit in the house, relax, and unwind. They are NOT fucking interchangable." *sigh*
First I get into an accident on my way to Furpocalypse. No big deal, nobody was injured, truck stil functions perfectly as a vehicle, and I have a $750 deductable on my insurance so even if the estimate is 2.5k to replace the bumpers and everything, I'm gonna pay 750. Thats still a hell of a fucking lot.
Then I got my goddamn parents yelling at me night after night about fucking job searching and how wll I'm doing with it, meanwhjile I'm working for both an NFL stadium, a movie theater, and then in the summer a concert stadium! HOW THE FUCK MANY JOBS YOU WANT ME TO HAVE ASSHOLES?! YES I KNOW I'M NOT MAKING A HIGH PAY RATE AT ANY OF THEM BUT YOU SYA I NEED TO GO GET A BETTER JOB NOW, ASAP, AND WHEN I GO "Well then I think I'll take a week off from work at the theater so I have the time to do that" YOU GO FUCKING APE-SHIT ON ME?! UGHJ! I DONT HAVE THE GODDAMN TIME TO DO THAT SHIT AND NOT END UP PISSED OFF LIKE I AM RIGHT NOW! I'M JUST FUCKING GLAD I CAN KEEP IT COOL IN FRONT OF THE DAMN CUSTOMERS AND NOT BLOW THE HELL UP AT THEM FOR EING THE IDIOTS THEY OFTEN ARE!
AND THEN! WHAT SETS ME OFF ATOP ALL THOSE THINGS IS MY GODDAMN PHONE SCREEN DECIDED "OH! I SHOULD STOP WORKING RELIABLY AND START RANDOMLY REGISTERING TOUCHES THAT AREN'T THERE AND NOT RECOGNIZING WHEN MY USER TOUCHES THE SCREEN!" And then finding the "solution" to that online of being squeezing the screen somewhat to re-engage the digitizer, and while that worked moderately well, tonight it decided to not fucking work well at all, enough so that I got pissed off at my phone and when trying to squeeze the screen fucking SNAPPED THE DAMN CHARGING PORT INSIDE THE PHONE! SO NOW IT'S NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO CHARGE WITHOUT ME PHYSICALLY HOLDING THE CABLE AT AN ODD ANGLE! I'M GONNA NEED TO EITHER REPAIR OR REPLACE THIS AMN PHONE NOW WHICH IS GONNA BE ANOTHER TRIPLE DIGIT NUMBER OF DOLLARS OUT OF MY FUCKING POCKET! AUUUGH! FUCK!!!!

Posted 11 years agoHeh, yup I'm pimping it some XD cause 
sahar does fast, cheaply priced work in full color ^^ 5 bucks for a full color pic is great price :D and the current drive she ha looks pretty damn unique :) The basic idea is that everyone who enters gets drawn into every subsequent picture of the drive. in other words, if three others come and get a pic after you, you appear in all three of those pics as well.

I've nabbed the first spot, hehe, and so yeah ^^ I'd love to see her get some more horny guys to please as I watch on ;) <3 seriously guys, do it, I might even split a payment with ya if you do XD
