Secondly, September eleventh, two thousand and one, New York City around eight am local time, the first of two jet liners crashes deliberately into one of the twin towers. Not too long after the second plane hits the other tower. Soon after a third plane slams into the pentagon. A fourth plane that was heading to the white house was shot down by military drone (as described by witnesses) while the passengers attempted to retake control from the saudi terrorist, going down into the fields. On that day we were united as one to seek answers and retribution against those who attacked us. Sadly the government used the tragedy as an opportunity to exert more power of the populous and restrict freedoms in the name of protection. A little diddy known as the "Patriot Act" was created and the Department of Homeland Security was born. This also gave a little monkey an excuse to invade the middle east and try to one up daddy with no exit plan in site, causing the deaths of millions over the course of 20 years, only for it to be botched by an equally, if not far more incompetent retard and add the United States to the list of failures who screwed with Afghanistan and lost (Russians, British, ect).
In the twenty years since, and more so within the last five, the united states has become more split and divided due to ideology and forced propaganda. where once we saw clearly how Islamic extremists are terrorist, we now call people who don't what to get a covid vaccine terrorist. Were we would call out the destruction of monuments and statues by Islamic extremist, we now celebrate those who destroy American statues and monuments and call those who fight to preserve terrorist and supremist. Where we would denounce the destruction of neighborhoods by extremist who used fire and bombs, we now let them do the same in our cities and call it, "Mostly peaceful protest" while whole blocks burn in the background and make shift bombs are being thrown whole local leaders stop the police from stopping the acts of violence.
What the terrorist aimed to do on that fateful day has come to frutation and now they down even have to lift a finger, because we are not only living in terror, but we are destroying our selves.

Memorial day in the United States.
Posted 4 years agoThis weekend is memorial day weekend in which we as Americans celebrate, remember, and honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice to ensure that we as Americans can have the great freedoms, rights, and liberties that so many today in ignorance take advantage of that others in the world can only dream of having a fraction of. Service men and women who fought for not just our nation, but for other nations as well, to stand up against tyrannical and oppressive rule and great evils to bring freedom and ensure those continued freedoms for generations to come. They gave their lives so we would have the right to speech, free thought and ideas, free movement to go where we wanted, and so many more freedoms we forget we have, at least, until others try to take those rights and freedoms from us.
Take the time to think about those who gave all before for what you have today and give thanks.
And for a special bit, here's a video of the Omaha landing and what's those brave men went though. Listen to what they have to say at the end and take it to heart.

Darkness
Posted 5 years agoAnd so... the End of Days has begun. The forces of Chaos have prevailed and are ravaging humanity across Holy Terra. Plague spread by Nurgle's agents, Slaaneshes followers spreading their corruption to the youth, Khorne having sent his forces upon our cities and citizens, and Tzeentch's followers spreading lies, false information, and gas lighting upon the weak-minded to help implement corruption in the highest offices of power of humanity.
In the Grim Darkness of the 21st century, there is only Chaos.

Welcome to the modern 1984
Posted 5 years agoAs many here have seen, FA has decided to go further left and will be taking actions against members who are Trump supporters and anyone who has a positive view towards the storming of the US capital.This is obviously nothing more than censorship and attack on those who do not follow the leftist agenda and ideology. If FA was to be fair and balanced, they would be banning Antifa and BLM for the months of destruction and deaths brought on by those groups in cities int he past year. To be clear, I do not agree completely with the storming of the Capital and the deaths that resulted. Violence no matter who does it is wrong and hurts their cause. That being said it was not a surprise to see the actions taken by those who have been censored, silenced, attacked, and called horrible things for so long.
To add to what FA is doing, Twitter and facebook are also going full draconian with their purges of anyone who is right-wing, conservative, republican, and even leftist who do not follow the set narrative. Social media has adopted many censorship and restrictive policies that are one sided. This is not free speech, this is not free thought. this is forceful removal of those that have a differing opinion and are deemed enemies of the narrative.
Finally, Main stream media has for the last two plus decades become the propaganda wing of the establishment and those of the leftist narrative. For the last four years MSM has been screaming "Orange Man Bad" and censoring differening opinions while protecting those they side with and doing all they could to smear and slander the President and his supporters. They would praise and endorse the violence that BLM and Antifa unleashed on many cities while demonizing right wing protest and rallies. Hypocrisy is the name of the game for the main stream media.
The purge of others based on their beliefs and ideas is upon us. This is how you destroy the freedoms that America has been founded and built on and destroy freedom of speech. Those that side with the current narrative WILL eventually find their selves on the otherside and WILL be purged just like those before them.
Take the warnings of Yuri Bezmenov. Read, watch, listen to his words. He predicted exactly what is happening right now. To quote the man:
“[T]he useful idiots, the leftists who are idealistically believing in the beauty of the Soviet socialist or Communist or whatever system, when they get disillusioned, they become the worst enemies. That’s why my KGB instructors specifically made the point: never bother with leftists. Forget about these political prostitutes. Aim higher. [...] They serve a purpose only at the stage of destabilization of a nation. For example, your leftists in the United States: all these professors and all these beautiful civil rights defenders. They are instrumental in the process of the subversion only to destabilize a nation. When their job is completed, they are not needed any more. They know too much. Some of them, when they get disillusioned, when they see that Marxist-Leninists come to power—obviously they get offended—they think that they will come to power. That will never happen, of course. They will be lined up against the wall and shot.”

Level One complete. Welcome to Level two.
Posted 5 years agoThe end of the first level of the roaring 20's has ended and level 2 has begun. What's in store for us, who knows! Aliens is always on the card, Giant rocks from space to wipe us out in an instant is one of my favs. Currently we have global resets and dictator democrats destroying businesses and peoples lives with draconian lock-downs using fear of the coof and misinformation and censorship of information to propagate said fear for control over the weak minded masses. The you have the gestapo oath-breakers (bad cops) stomping on the rights of the people, and the people standing up and saying no to the dictators and even beating the crap out of these oath-breakers when they assault the citizenry. Not all cops are bad, but there are plenty who are willing to be bastards who violate the oath to protect the constitution. Thankfully there are many, especially when it comes to the sheriffs, they will no enforce these unconstitutional lock-downs. I do expect to see continued violence and destruction from the communist leftist and more of the right taking a stand against a corrupt government. I also expect to see a new Great Depression brought to you by the Biden then Harris Administration, if Trump and Pence doesn't somehow pull a rabbit out of their hat in a few days. Otherwise we may need to start to learn Mandarin or which ever version of Chinese is the majority.
2021 has a lot in store for us, and I for one welcome the madness. I refer to Tool and their song Ænima for how I generally feel about 2020 and 2021. To quote a part of the song,
"Some say a comet will fall from the sky
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves
Followed by fault lines that cannot sit still
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits
I really do look forward to possibly seeing the left and the right both fighting the establishment, if for different reasons, like the boycott against Wal-Mart right now.
For now, I'll keep on trucking as I have and work on my personal life. My personal interaction with the furry fandom is limited to art and some telegram groups due to a few things, mostly the lunatics taking over the asylum and creating rifts with their intersectionality and identity politics. Oh how I miss the furry fandom of the early 2000's.

Careful of what you wish.
Posted 5 years agoTo those of you who voted for Biden. You had better own it for the next four years if he wins (as it has yet to be officially called yet).
I don't want to hear you complain about your taxes going up or gas prices doubling. I don't want you to complain when your health insurance cost go up even further than they already are. Don't complain when you bring home less on your paycheck because you're being penalized for "climate justice". Don't complain when you lose your job because 15 million illegal immigrants suddenly become legal and your employer decides to hire someone at a lower wage. Don't complain when your job is out right eliminated because the minimum wage is too high and your employer can no longer afford to stay open or even pay you. Don't complain when your automotive or industrial job is eliminated because its shipped back to China. Don't complain when interest rates double or triple and homes and cars are not as affordable as they once where. Don't complain when your stocks and 401k take a massive hit. Don't complain when we are locked into more endless wars in the middle east. Don't complain when your otherwise safe communities are overrun by crime and start resembling Chicago, Portland, Seattle, Baltimore, And Detroit. Don't complain when the educational system goes down and higher education becomes unaffordable. You obviously didn't vote paycheck or future, you voted your feelings. Unfortunately facts don't care about your feelings and you will soon learn this under the Biden/ Harris administration.
Just own it.

California SB 145 will make it so "If signed into law, a 24-year-old could have sexual relations with a 15-year-old child without being required to register as a sex offender,"
And who brought this to all of us? Why the same pervert that make it no longer a felony to knowingly infect someone with HIV/AIDS, State Senator Scott Wiener.
So to all of you cub lovers in california, go on and celebrate as you can now go fuck children with no repercussions. You got what you wanted.

History from those that lived it.
Posted 5 years agoIn 1947, still living civil war veteran from the Confederate side, Corporal Julius Franklin Howell (1846 - 1948) was interviewed and recorded telling about his time as a youth in the south with black slaves and then when the war broke out and when he had joined all the way to the end and the day Lincoln had died. He will tell you the TRUTH of the times and why many to all the states had at the time succeeded from the Union. Many believe and are told it was all about slavery, when it was always about states rights first and foremost.
The reason we need to learn history is so we can understand it, know it, and not be blinded by lies and misconceptions, all so we can learn from our past and make the changes to keep from repeating those mistakes. Our history is our legacy. It is what tells us of our origins, our struggles, of our failings and triumphs. it shows what we were and how we have become better and overcame what we saw as wrong. It also teaches the way of the world of the time, how we must understand that we can not judge the past on the basis of the presents morals and social norms. This is why we have statues of both Union and Confederate people of importance. This is why we have the statues of those who have struggled to overcome what was truly difficult. this is why we dedicate memorials to those that rose up and made a mark on history, so we will remember and never forget.
"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."--George Santayana, The Life of Reason, 1905.

A furry anime called BNA
Posted 5 years agoSo aside from the awesomeness that is Beastars on Netflix, I was also introduced to another anthro anime called BNA (Brand New Animal). Its in traditional anime style instead of the 3d like that was used for Beastars. It features a human girl who was turned into a Tanuki shortly after her close friend was turned into a fox/ kitsumi. In this world Beastmen and humans exist and there is a city named Anima City, a city built for beastmen to be able to live peacefully as themselves. Lots of fun stuff and an interesting story line with surprises and slight twist. One of the characters, the mayor of Anima City, named Barbaray Rose, is a naked molerat beastman, and she looks exactly like Tilda Swinton. So kind of fun bit there.
If you haven't seen it yet, i do highly recommend it. its a fun watch and exploration into an anthro world.

Stages of communist takeovers- Leftists are useful idiots
Posted 5 years agoWe as a nation were warned during the end of the cold war about how the communist/ socialist would try to take over the United States. Often the term "Useful Idiots" is used to describe the far left and those who push for communism / socialism in the U.S. What many don't know is that when the goals of the left are achieved, the useful idiots are removed, most often sent to gulags, executed, ect. Here is a video from long ago describing in detail just what we are seeing today.
Its all BLM's fault.
Posted 5 years agoHow the furry fandom has been destroyed.
Posted 5 years agoThe Process of infiltration works like this:
* Advocates of social justice join a community based around shared interest and form a friendship group.
* The community is both popular and not structured around identity politics.
* Social justice advocates create a disturbance in the community, falsely accusing other members of prejudice over disagreements, around which the friendship group can rally. This creates a persistent mythology around certain individuals as victims of bigotry.
* The social justice advocates begin agitating for new rules for the entire community to protect the "victims" of these disagreements.
* Community leaders who resist are browbeaten into compliance through smearing them as "racist", "misogynists", "homophobes", ect if they do not comply.
* Community leaders cave from their desire to be good people and fear for their reputation, and start implementing the changes demanded.
* The community at large find these changes to be repressive and object en-mass.
* Having successfully politicized and gained control of the community, social justice advocates proceed to ostracism their opponents.
* Bystanders in the community decide this community no longer serves their interest as hobbyists and leave.
* the community cohesion disintegrates as the main focus has shifted away from the original purpose of the group and onto identity politics.
* Over time as people leave out of distaste for the new atmosphere of the community.
This is how social justice advocates co-opt and destroy popular communities on the internet. The larger and less-centralized the community is, the more difficult and time-consuming the process of co-option becomes.

I'm officially a grey muzzle/ beak.
Posted 5 years agoToday is once again my birthday and I'm now 40. Sadly I'm celebrating it by being at the DMV all day. I spend about 3 hours in the sun in a line that wrapped the building. Have to renew my commercial drivers licence and do the real I.D. thing too. I wanted to get it done months ago but China had different plans for all of us. Afterwards I'm planning to go shopping for stuff for the truck then get back on the road for a short bit.
I've become pretty recluse to the fandom due to the authoritarians taking over and making it miserable. I've lost friend due to destructive and hateful ideology forced onto the fandom. At best im still able to enjoy the art, but doing anything social is a no go for me.

Posted 5 years agoSOmething I grew up watching back in the 1980's
I have been smited it seems.
Posted 6 years agolast night (01/15/2020) I was out getting hygiene and home supplies and a new HP printer cause my old one was fubar. In my car as I was shifting to reverse, it acted like it wasn't in gear but then went into gear. i thought it was just I didn't shift all the way and nothing else. Get home and try to set up new printer. nope. all kinds of issues with not catching the paper and other things. Contact HP about it. Do their voodoo dance to try to fix it and nothing works, so get set up for a new replacement to be sent out.
This morning (01/16/2020) I head off to work and all seems fine, then as I'm down the road and try shifting to 5th, it wont engage. I push the shifter and it wants to grind. I fidget with it and it slips into gear. It does this the rest of the way to the truck terminal (I'm a truck driver for those that didn't know). When I get there I test out the reverse (its below 5th gear) and it doesn't engage and instead wants to grind as I let off the clutch. Great. If I want to back up i have to push my car now.
Check in with my drive manager and go look for my truck as it was in the shop for service and repairs. Jump in and the DEF gauge (Diesel Exhaust Fuel. It filters the exhaust and makes diesels very clean and non polluting) was reading empty. I add some in and it still shows empty. I tell the shop and they pull the truck in to figure out what they did and fix it.
Meanwhile, I look around online for a transmission shop near home and get referred to one in Lancaster. I call them up and tell them the issue. After checking I'm told $1800 and 3 to 5 days to fix it. Issue is not the linkage but a barring and of course worn parts. Its basically a rebuild and would have a warranty. They send me a link to a financing company to help with covering the cost and making payments. Going to apply and hope I'm approved. Talked to my folks and they toss some options and offer to help. Right now I just want to get out on the road and build up some funds to cover the majority or full cost of the repair when I can setup to get it into the shop and have the time off to do it with. After which I'm going to look into getting a new car and trade in/sell my old car once I get caught back up on things.
I'm just trying to keep calm and not panic about all this happening all of a sudden.

December 7th, 1941. Pearl Harbor 07:55 local time.
Posted 6 years agoThe day that would live in infamy, the attack that would Officially bring the United States of America into the second world war. The loss of many lives and ships and would change so much.
This year on September 10th, one of the last survivors of the U.S.S Arizona passed away and his ashes will be interred at the site. ( https://www.latimes.com/california/.....terment-hawaii )
We must remember this day and never let it be forgotten. Many of our veterans of the war have passed on and will soon no longer be a living history.
Though many today would rather deny many of the events that had happened in the war on all fronts and sides, we must never forget the tragedies and victories as well as the technological leaps forward that we as a species have gained, and to never forget the price that came with it.
If you know or see a veteran of the war, be sure to thank you for their service and the sacrifice they gave so we may have the lives we can all have today.

Posted 6 years agoNine years. Nine long years of friendship and magic and technicolor miniature anthropomorphic horses. Lessons of friendship that we as children once had been taught or should have been taught, reminded to us as adults. A cartoon show originally aimed at little girls somehow found its way into every person no matter their age. We watched these characters come to life on the television screen every Saturday morning, showing us their life stories. Stories that told of joy and sorrow, good times and hard, success and failures, and just every day slice of life. Sometimes they went on adventures to save the land or journey to the unexplored. We were shown the importance of the elements of friendship that helps to bind us and guide us and even protect our selves. With personal growth, we watch three young fillies finally achieve their goal of gaining their "cutie mark" and learning how to find new goals to help others. We see a self employed business mare expand her business and achieve her life goals. A top flying pegasus achieved her life long dream of joining the top areal group in the land and prove to be one of the best flyers in the land and the responsibility it brought with it. We learned of the families of these characters and understood how relatable each one was to our own lives.
I personally hope it has helped to make myself and many others better people for having watched and followed for so long. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was the show we needed when it came out, and in these times, I'd say its the show we still need to help us to find a way to come together to put aside our differences and find that commonality that brings us together so we can celebrate what makes us unique and different but still able to share together in something great and wonderful.
So to you, My Little pony: Friendship is Magic, I say this, "So long, and thanks for all the ponies.

June 6th, 1944. D-Day
Posted 6 years agoon this day 75 years ago, the Allies launched the largest amphibious assault in human history to invade occupied France and mainland Europe to combat the Nazi War Machine and to liberate the world from true evil. Early morning aerial assults of decoys drew many forces away from the Normandy coast line. Mis-dropped bombs missed the beach head targets, paratroopers were scattered and many drowned in now flooded fields in an attempt to have a force behind enemy lines to help take the beaches. As light began to over take the night, landing craft hurried towards their assigned beaches. The British would take the beaches Sword and Gold. The Canadians took Juno. And the Americans would take Utah and Omaha. To support the troops landing were specially modified sherman tanks called Duplex Drive tanks. Sadly because of the high seas, only two tanks out of the set sent to Omaha were able to make it and they didn't last long. For those in the landing craft, many never got off the boat the moment the door dropped. those that could bailed over the sides. Many drowned due to the deep water and heavy get holding them under. What was suppose to have been done within a few short hours took 12 hours to complete. None the less, through shear will and bravery along with strong leadership, the allies pushed through and took the beaches, securing an entrance into Europe and the eventual total defeat of the Nazi Regime.
We must never forget the sacrifice these men, many who were between 18 and 23 years old, had given to protect the freedoms we take for granted every day. It is thanks to the greatest generation that we can wake up and be free to live our lives, to make our own way in life, to be able to bitch and whine over petty nuances and fight amongst each other over trivial matters. To not be in fear of being sent to labor camps for our opinion or how we were born as. To be able to speak our own language and not be forced to speak a different one. These are the freedoms those men fought for and died for.
On this day I ask that we all take a moment to honor those that gave all so we may can live in a world that is more free that ever in our remembered history.

I'm on the road working for Christmas and New Year's.
Posted 7 years agoHey there fuzz heads. Just as the title says, I'm on the road working for the holidays. I don't mind too much as I just did some home time the weekend before Christmas. The nice thing is the truck stops and rest areas have tons of room for parking, and the Petro Iron Skillet's have a Christmas dinner going on. I want everyone to have a merry Christmas time and to appreciate being home and with loved ones at this time.
Just a friendly reminder to all within the asylum
