Anybody else out there?
Posted 13 years agoI would like to take this chance to say that I'm not really looking for advice. I'm not looking for incredible amounts of sympathy. All I'm looking to do is to get some stuff off my chest and, hey, if you can associate with whatever I'm saying, then all the better.
I am also not doing this to represent a specific group of people. I am speaking for myself, about myself, and some issues I've been having as of late. These may change at any given time, as sex and sexuality tends to do.
alright. the tl;dring beings now
Does anybody else out there have this same sense of... being ill defined in many, many aspects of life? Or feel vaguely unsettled by the need for everything to be labeled, compartmentalized, and put into neat little boxes? Or even feel that there aren't any neat little boxes any more? For this I, of course, refer to the ever wonderful, ever annoying areas of Gender, Sex (intercourse, not physical sex), and clothing. Yes, clothing of all things. Pieces of damned fabric used to make you less cold - but hey, apparently I like to make a huge ordeal out of everything that I do.
I am female. I can happily accept that I am physically female. For the most part, I like my body... At very least I like it in silhouette. (You can tell you're an artist when...) I am physically female. I am fine with this. My gender and i don't always agree in the same way. I've felt myself drifting closer to being male identified, I've felt myself going closer towards the feminine. For a long while I felt like I was on the slightly girly side of androgyny. I may still be. I don't know. There's no strong pull either way any more. I don't feel any resonating with either. with anything. I'm happy knowing that I am female in body - and I could care less what people call me. Let them see what they'd like to, whether that be a boyish girl, or a girly boy. What anyone else thinks of me from first glance, whether it be "That's a boy!" "That's a girl!" or even "FAGGOT" doesn't really matter to me.
It is, however, a little unsettling. I don't know if gender dysphoria would be the correct term for this - I can't even say if this feeling is here to stay. For many, many years I was more than happy to go about my business, feeling female inside and out. But, that feeling has slowly shifted and changed. Hell, when I was a little, little kid I was as girly as they get. And then I got older and felt myself... resonating with such less and less. And it appears that it's continuing that downward slope. But at the same time it's not.
That does lead me into my next issue, I suppose. The word "Transvestite" carries a lot of negative connotations outside of the fetish community and has sort of left me, as a non-fetish-based-occasional-cross-dresser feeling... Well, lacking but not lacking a term. As stated before, I'm physically female. I absolutely love suits. I don't have one that fits me, much to my dismay. I've been making due for the longest time with shirts that are four or five sizes too big, vests that are the same, girl's pants, and a women's blazer. Needless to say, my makeshift suit is convincing no one. Especially not me. A part of me LIKES the far too big collared shirt - but that may just be because of the way the sleeves hang. (Yet again, you know you're an artist when...) But then there are dresses. Oh, then there's dresses.
I do love the feeling of a dress. Not one of those "oooo gurrlll u so fine in that dresssss" kind of dresses. I like long ones. I like ones with layers. Ones that you can FEEL when you move. or ones meant for winter. I used to be absolutely enthralled with such dresses, but as of late I've started to feel a little more separated from it all. I've put on dresses, looked in the mirror and gone... There's something not right about this image. There's something that feels incredibly confining about this. That isn't the Kaz that I know.
This feeling, however, could very well be a phase. I don't doubt that it's a phase, which is why I was reluctant to, and now regretful that I did attach a term to it. I know that my friends will love me no matter how I dress, but once more this isn't so much an issue of how other people see me, but more of an issue about how I feel about myself. Yes, of course there's the solution of "WHY NOT JUST SAY YOU LIKE WEARING SUITS AND DRESSES." That'd be the smart thing to say, wouldn't it? hahaha, I'm really not that smart, guys. I'm not that smart, and I don't... I don't know. I almost feel the same issue with gender is happening with clothing, as stupid as it is. I don't feel particular attachment or draw to either one. I feel equally comfortable, uncomfortable, at home, and displaced in whichever gender specific clothes I wear. Yes, it's dumb. Dumber than dumb. But hey, it's there. stupid clothes.
And then my last dumb little conundrum (for tonight): sex. haha. yeah. This is probably the dumbest part of this whole rant. (Is this a rant? I don't even know.) Uhh. This is also where I get awkward with everything, and also really vindictive and envious and stupid.
It'd be really, really nice if I could just go "Hello world! I'm a lesbian!" or "Hello world! I'm heterosexual!" or even "Hello world! I'm gray-asexual!" or ANYTHING. But I have yet to find a term that successfully identifies my physical and emotional attraction to people. Yes, I know I'm not alone in this part... at least, I don't think I am. I know very well that I'm not as educated in this area as I could be, so this really is one of the few parts where I'd be more than happy to hear advice on terms or things. I'm always willing to expand my vocabulary in that regard.
But I. I can't even begin to describe the odds I've put myself at for this. I am, to start, attracted to men. Sometimes. If they're the right body type. And sometimes if they're not. And sometimes if they are the usual body type I'm attracted to I still feel nothing. And then there are girls. Oh Jesus, girls, where do I start. I find myself far more easily emotionally attached to girls. I don't know if it has to do with (and this is a broad generalization, please forgive me for it) girls being generally more emotional, or if it's due to some other weird factor, but there it is. I like girls with curves, girls who look friggin strong. I like the notion of cuddling with girls, I like very many of the visual aspects of girls. I feel much more comfortable with being touched by girls, casual contact and other such contact. But at the same time I don't. I find myself looking at women thinking that they're some of the most beautiful people I've ever been able to behold, and I find myself easily falling head over heals for them... But my actual attraction to them is... Well, it isn't.
Yes, I know that there's a difference between romantic and sexual attractions, and that your feelings can vary from gender to gender. I know that in many cases, there are no little neat boxes, there are no lines to separate where one person goes or another one does. I know this, but it does not ease this... uncertainty at all. I don't feel comfortable. I don't know what signals I'm broadcasting, or what signals I'm receiving. As much as it may be true or untrue, I feel... distant from it all? Envious that it's so easy for so many people to go "Oh, yes, I like the cock. well, that settles that." or "Hmm. I see you have titties. I quite enjoy titties myself, we should compare notes and by notes I mean let's fuck." And then I'm just sitting here going.... Haaa....um.... I'm attracted to......... Something? I think? Yes. No. Wait. Crap.
One of my new friends from school said that I fit under the blanket term "Queer" which does and doesn't apply? But I think that Queer was/is being used as a general word for those with a "non-conventional sexuality" or something like that? Yet again, a term I don't really resonate with. It's a good term, and I'm more that sure that a great many people find solace in it... but I'm not certain that I do.
So. Uh. yes. Yes I think that'll do for this little emotional vent thing.
Uhhh. Yeah. So I'm dumb and indecisive and even more dumb.
I'm just going to.
Going to go sit in the corner with my dumb feels for a while.
hahaaaaaaa wow hey how's everybody else doing this evening

Manga Studio 4 reviews?
Posted 13 years agoI'm looking into getting the trial for Manga Studio 4, but I wanted to get some reviews on it and how it compares to other art programs (especially Paint Tool Sai, since that's what I use most commonly.)
Any reviews would be fantastic!
Any reviews would be fantastic!
I was in a car crash
Posted 13 years agoI was coming home from my aunt and uncle's house, we were joking around, shooting the shit, just driving down the road. It'd been raining and snowing earlier that day (thank you, canada) so that might have worsened conditions. I might have been distracting my uncle. There are a whole lot of "might have" situations. Whatever it was that lead up to it, we ended up running a stop sign, and the car was hit. We were sent spinning until we crashed into a fire hydrant on someone's lawn (which, miraculously, was dead.) The only sound I remember upon impact was the dog in the back seat of our car yelping, and my aunt saying my uncle's name followed by "No, no, no, no, no, no!"
And then I remember soundless spinning. And shattered glass. I think I say stars for a moment or two when we finally came to a hault. The dog was yipping and crying and barking.
I remember trying to crawl out of the car, pushing the door open, taking off my seat belt and saying "ooookay everyone out." But then my aunt, frantically and in a frightened manner, told me no. that i needed to lay down and not move. So I flopped back in my seat, my head on my bag. In what seemed like seconds, people from the neighborhood were upon us - one of them even had first aid training. Her name was Caroline. For a brief instant, I thought of Portal 2. She was holding my uncle's head straight forward, and from my laying down position i could see my aunt holding his hand. We all spoke very calmly, answered any questions they asked. A few other people showed up with blankets and pillows after Caroline confirmed that I shouldn't be moving. One of the girls who was helping to calm down the dog was going to have her birthday this coming Saturday. I told her happy birthday, I don't know that she heard me.
When the paramedics arrived they spoke very gently to me and, after some questions, lifted my onto a stretcher and took me into the back of an ambulance. I remember looking up at the clouds while they were moving me and still having my ever constant migraine aura and thinking "well, shit. that's still there." When we got into the back of the ambulance the paramedic with me started asking me questions about myself and tried to get my pulse with a machine that clipped onto my finger. he couldn't get it to work on either finger, it registered me as being dead. I didn't know that's what the machine did, so I wasn't all too concerned by it at the time. He then told me that he couldn't fine a pulse, when I was quite clearly alive. So either the machine was faulty, or I defied all medical laws he knew. The first thing that came to mind was "tell him you're a lich." but then I figured he wouldn't get that. so instead I looked to him and said:
"Shh, I'm a necromancer. It is my dark, dark, secret. You cannot tell anyone."
To this, he laughed. He kept me talking, humored my humor. Apparently I'm funny when I'm on an adrenaline rush - maybe I should get into more car crashes and just become a stand up comedian. Shortly after I told him I was a necromancer, my mother called me. I made sure she had the dog and, after some confusion, she did have her all safe and sound. My aunt was riding up with the driver of the ambulance this entire time. Both the paramedics did a good job of making me feel safe and sound.
After the ride to the hospital I had a nine and a half hour wait to see a doctor. six hours outside of an actual room, three and a half inside. (Once again, thank you canada.) After all that time, i took the doctor ten minutes to poke at me and say that I had some abrasions but I'd be fine otherwise. Nine hours of waiting. You know why? There was one doctor staffed. And 17 nurses that could do little other than say "We'll need a urine sample, please" and hand out assless gowns. One doctor.
Now, I appreciate the canadian healthcare system in that it is free - you are processed based on the seriousness of your condition not on how much money you have. Your bank account won't be drained if you're in a situation like mine. That's beautiful, that's wonderful. But.... 17 nurses? Really? if you had, oh, I don't know, maybe 10 nurses but TWO doctors, maybe people wouldn't have to wait Nine hours to be seen. I know that it's not the fault of the people on the floor - they're doing the best with what they have. The people who are scheduling this, who hired too many nurses and not enough doctors... those are the guys who irk me.
Anyways, I'm okay. My aunt and uncle are okay. The dog is okay. The other driver is okay. His passengers are okay.
It's all okay.

Edd Gould passed away
Posted 13 years agoI didn't know Edd Gould personally, I never could muster up enough courage to leave him a comment or tell him how much his animations made me smile. All the same, when I learned that he'd passed on I was greatly upset. He was a wondreful inspiration to me, his videos always made me smile, and he was just... so young. He lost his battle to cancer at 24 years old.
He was a wonderful person and a brilliant contribution to this world, and it saddens me greatly that he's gone.

Posted 13 years agoHey everybody! So, good news, my bus got canceled! why is this good news? Because screw going out today. I am cozy and I am warm and all I want to do is draw.
Oh hey, speaking of drawing, how about some requests? Yeaaah?
How about some requests in the style of this image? (edit: ooooh yikes, i forgot to put that link in there didnt i xD;;;;;)
Yeaaaaaaaaaah?
Well, here's the deal! I really liked doing that image and I want to do more. You drop me a comment with a link to a character reference and I'll doodle them up for you!
Please, keep in mind that I would be working with a limited colour scheme, and that this is more of a stylistic experimentation than anything else xD I'm doing this to have fun! and if lots of people comment, i might not get around to every last one today. c:
But yeah. That's what I'm thinkin, brosidions.
c: otherwise, have a sweet day.

HEY HEY HEY GUYS GUYS I WANT TO MAKE YOU SMILE HEY GUYS
Posted 14 years agoI know quite a few people who have been having a shittastic week - like, super shittastic on the shittastic scale of shittiness. So, given that I cant exactly aid the situations theyre in any with the means I have available, here's what i'm going to do...
Years and years ago when i was upset beyond belief, my mother told me to make a list of all the little things that make me smile. Today, i shall rewrite that list, and share with everyone things that make me smile that I hope will make you smile as well.
Let me start with a musical artist I discovered not too long ago, the wonderful monsiour -M- (or Matthieu Chedid) He's the voice of the Monster in the movie "A Monster in Paris" and his stage persona, -M-, is supposed to be a super hero. His hair is stylized to look like an M. he makes me smile beyond all belief.
His songs that make me smile the most areEn Tête à Tête, Qui De Nous Deux, and l'eclipse.
If Robot Unicorn attack was addictive, then this is GOD TIER ADDICTIVE. http://www.nyanicorn.com/
I know that it gets a lot of bad attention, and a lot of good attention, and a lot of just plane creepy attention, but I do love homestuck.
you want this cake?
damn you tiny elephant....damn you!
Cosmo Jarvis is another musical artist that I've really come to love. He's creative and makes me smile for the things he's willing to say. My two favorite songs by him are Gay Pirates and Sure as hell not Jesus.
More music. This man writes origional songs... my god he's made me cry with his lyrics. I'm not sure of his name, but my favorite songs of his are We are Spoons, Mario Kart Love Song, Stars In Our Eyes, and (although this one is a bit more sad) Wish that Home were Here.
I dont care what anyone says, I love making shit on Doll Divine.
The sound matrix is funking amazing
curse you tiny blue elephant! (EDIT - whoopse this guy is on here twice! XD but i love it so much i'm leaving it like this.)
once you go Cracked you never go back!...ed.
Guys, this is a Jewish, A Capella, Parody cover band called the "Maccabeats." Guys. they're adorable. Go listen to Candlelight, a cover of Dynamite.
this list may be added to later c: but I hope this makes you smile even a little bit
<3
i really do love you guys

Kaz is an idiot and needs help from copic marker users
Posted 14 years agoOkay, so, I'm a complete and total idiot and bought straight up Copic Markers instead of the Sketch Copic marker whatevers. I got the 72(b) colour set. I'm now out 345 bucks.
I can't seem to find it anywhere online, but are you able to put replacement Sketch tips (or larger brush tips) in Copic Markers?
Please, any advice on this subject would be much appreciated.
thanks.

ick ick ick sick sick sick (and update)
Posted 14 years agoBE WARNED this is a BIG UPDATE. IT WILL INCLUDE:
1) Therapy
2) Volunteering
3) Ick Ick Ick Sick Sick Sick
4) The unfortunate fate of Dwayne the MP3
5) The small but mighty Pippa the MP3
6) Where the hell is Kaz's check
7) Creatures of Naught
1) Therapy.
to start, for the past month or so I've been going to a therapist every other week. pour quoi? my social anxiety skyrocketed a while back and, when I was having a bad enough time that when I was around my awesome dnd group I needed to step out. I've never done that before - i've had anxiety attacks around them, sure, but I've always been able to calm the hell down.
so, by that point (and after a fight with my parents) it was decided that I was probably due for a little bit of help.
It's been going great, i love my therapist, she's amazing! I swear, for a woman who I've technically only known for 4 hours out of my life, she's already a friend to me. I swear, we spend so much time just talking about pointless things xD we get along really well, and I've gotten better in the areas I've sought to improve! Really, it's great.
2) Volunteering
As of late I've been volunteering at a little Café in the downtown area - just picking up some job experience, meeting some new people, lotsa fun! My first day was about three weeks ago and it was great! Everyone was super nice, very patient with me, very helpful. Granted, I was left alone to deal with 3 customers, but that was mostly a fault of my own for not asking "HEY could someone come help me?" as well as forgetting that speed was not of the essence there xD all in all, really sweet little place. I love it to bits and I hope that I can make it in tomorrow. Which brings me to my next point...
3) Ick Ick Ick Sick Sick Sick
I am ill. Go figure xD
I've actually been sick for the past two weeks or so, but it's only just hitting me now. It's mostly inner ear and sinus stuff, but it's had less than favorable effects on my gastrointestinal system as well. I thought I could make it through the day today - just tough it out and get a good sleep tonight.... turns out I was wrong xD
after on again, off again nausea, dizziness and all sorts of unpleasant feelings, I decided to go home. I thought that I was at least feeling well enough to do some productive things.... turns out I was wrong about that as well. I pretty much just slept from 11:30 to 5:30. I'm still feeling really, quite icky and I'm continuously overheating... So I hope I'll be at school/volunteering tomorrow, but there's no guarantee.
4) The unfortunate tale of Dwayne the MP3
Okay, so this one's actually kind of funny - and I'm real proud of myself for not getting upset over it at the time!
It all technically starts a couple of days before hand. I had gone to the mall with my friends Greg, Jesse and Shin after a short nonsensical DND session at Mistie's house (which also included Windy) Durring this excursion, Greg and Shin were kind enough to buy me a lovely sweater that I absolutely ADORE! It's a little bit more of a tunic style than what I'm used to - so it's a big longer and the pockets are far lower than on my other sweaters.
All in all, pretty damn badass.
So, on the first day of school it was also my first day of volunteering. At the back of my school there's this little paved path that goes right to the corner by the bus I needed to catch to get downtown. So I'm struttin my stuff, listening to I wish I had a Portal Gun, thinkin that I'm gonna have the best day ever... And I get maybe three feet or so from the corner by the stop.
And then the bus goes past me.
So, like any logical and sane person, I start cursing profusely and running to catch that mother funker. My headphones slipped off my ears (right at the line "If I'm locked out my apartment I'd use the companion cube!") and I fricken bolt after that bus. As I'm running, I notice that the chord for my headphones is dangling by my feet, but I dint really pay it any attention since my headphones CONSTANTLY fall out of my MP3s.
Luckily, the bus driver sees be running, and I wouldn't have been surprised if she'd heard me cursing as well. So I get on the bus, head to the back (like the loner mcderp pants that I am.) and I check my pocket for my MP3. It's not there.
I check my other pocket. Not there either. I check my jeans. Nope. And then, in a moment of terrifying clarity, I look out the back window of the bus to see a small, black, MP3 sized rectangle in the road. And then, sitting there like a guilty criminal faced with undeniable proof against them, I watched as a car came and---
CRUNCH!!!
Poor Dwayne. We hardly knew thee.
5) The small but mighty Pippa the MP3
IN OTHER NEWS, I got a new MP3 and named her Pippa. She's a Sansa Sandisk Clip+ and she's working wonders for me. She's only 4GB, but I can upgrade her by slipping an SD card in.
She's really quite lovely - very tiny though. All she displays is the title of the song that's playing, the artist, how far along you are into the song, the battery life, and whether or not it's on repeat/shuffle.
And, one of the best parts about her - she only cost 49.99 which is FANTASTIC compared to some of the other ones I could have gotten.
She is perfect for what I need and, though Dwayne will be missed, she's a lovely little girl.
6) Where the hell is Kaz's check.
Over the summer I did some freelance artwork, two logos that I was going to be payed 200 bucks for all together. This was back in the middle of august and I was told that my invoice would be submitted a week late BUT I would get the money for it soon.
So, I waited two weeks, checking the mail every so often to see if it had come yet. after three weeks I was getting a little frustrated, and I asked the person who i did the logos for what the hell was going on? He told me that it takes a while for the Finances department to actually process checks and go through everything and that he'd seen it take 6-8 weeks for people to get their money.
That was frustrating. So, I kept waiting (angrily) for my check, complaining to phosphorous_tick every day that it hadn't come in yet. Usually, I wouldn't have been so pushy, but at the time I needed the money for a new MP3. (Luckily for me I'd also babysat my aunt and uncle's dog over the summer for three days, and on friday they gave me a FutureShop gift card with 75 bucks on it. Hence Pippa xD)
But more good(ish) news came on friday. Turns out, the woman who'd been previously handling all the money for the department hadn't actually been working for them in MONTHS. So, when she was called and she told them all this, they contacted the person who WAS responsible for handling my money.
Hopefully i'll be getting it any day now, so I'll finally be able to get a nice external hard drive! aaah, more room on my computer. that'll be lovely.
7) Creatures of Naught
Blog for Casting Creatures and other original(ish) monsters!

anyways, that's my monster update.
Love you all! <3
Hope you all have lovely days and beautiful lives.
Mwah~I... Oh. Well. That stings a little.
Posted 14 years agoI was feeling a little lonely today, as I sometimes do when the talks of my younger sisters relationships come up. Although I am usually quite content with my life as is and do not feel the need to justify being without a romantic partner, it sometimes stings a little bit to know that my younger sisters are more successful than I in the field of love, which I so actively pursue through my poetry and art.
("But kaz, wouldn't actively pursuing love be... like... trying to actually find people with similar intresest who--"
LALALALALALALALALALA I CANT HEAR YOUR LOGIC I AM STORY TELLING RIGHT NOW LALALALALALA)
So, as I once suggested to a friend who had a similar feeling of loneliness, I decided to go on eHarmony for shits and giggles - just to remind myself that even if I'm not with anyone, there are still people out there LIKE me that I could grow to like and love.
The message I got at the end of it:
"We're very sorry, but our matching system cannot predict good matches for you."
ouch. It doesn't hurt as much as it could, but it still had a sting that made my self confidence take a few steps back. I knew going into it not to expect very much, but it still made me a little disappointed.
I do know, however, not to take eHarmony as a "OH I SHALL NEVER FIND LOVE NOW. WOE IS ME!" since, hey, it's just a freakin dating site. It does not make or break me and (if) there is someone (or multiple someones) out there in the vast world, it's not incredibly likely they're on a dating site. Besides the fact that I wouldn't even be able to contact any of the people I MAY HAVE been matched up with.
It was still a little bit... of a sour experience.
so yeah.
just thought I'd tell the internet.
and stuff.
I'm bad at journaling, don't mind me. What can you tell me about Furpaws.net?
Posted 14 years agoSo, what can you all tell me about Furpaws?
I've been looking the terms of service/privacy policy/all that noise over for the past maybe half an hour or so and I cant decide how I feel about this site.
It has a slightly deviantART feel to it...but it seems a little nicer and a little more open. (which I like.)
It seems nice enough - doesnt seem to be doing much any harm, I like the over all lay out and look of it... But I'd like some second (or third, or fourth) opinions on it. Are any of you out there on Furpaws? What's been your experiences with the site? What have you heard about it?
Any opinions or experiences would be more than welcomed! ^^ thank you all!

It's not ending - I just need to find the best way to get back on that horse, no matter if it likes to buck.

Thank you for you advice and opinions

Thank you all! <3

I'm a little bit conflicted.
Posted 14 years agoSo, I finally found an art website that I really like. It's called Humble Voice ( http://humblevoice.com ) and it's completely free, all levels of art and formatting that I like (even fantastic formatting for written work!) There is, however, an issue with it. Said issue is as follows:
By using this service, you grant to Humble Voice a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to reproduce, distribute, re-format, store, prepare derivative works based on, and publicly display and perform Your Content. Please note that when you upload Content, third parties will be able to copy, distribute and display your Content using readily available tools on their computers for this purpose although other than by linking to your Content on Humble Voice any use by a third party of your Content could violate the Copyright notice of these Terms and Conditions unless the third party receives permission from you by license.
Humble Voice reserves the right to reproduce and distribute Your Content in promotional and marketing materials, both internal and public, with or without prior notification to the copyright owner. This includes, but is not limited to, promotional materials, advertisements, as well as to provide to a third party for use in articles about and reviews of Humble Voice in any medium. When possible we will try to indicate the appropriate copyright owner in reproductions of Your Content but do not guarantee it.

it's not so much the "third parties will be able to access and save your work" as that holds true for basically any site. If you put it on the internet, be prepared for the possibility of it being ripped off.
The bit about having the right to reproduce and distribute without the artist's consent, however, is bothersome. Even if it'd only be for promotional things and adds for the site itself, it bothers me that they do not have to give the artist any credit, but at the same time I'm sorta thinking "Okay, well its just the promotional materials for the site." They're not going to take it and mess with it, they're not going to alter it, they're just using it for advertising.
I'm not sure. Can I get some opinions? I'm really on the fence about this because, hey, how often do you find sites with a good layout AND a decent community?
