My Good Friend  CleverDerpy really really needs help. They have fallen on tough times and don't have money for food or gas or really much of anything at the moment.

Below is their gofundme. Some have donated but more donations would be greatly appreciated!
Please, if you can, donate.

So this is an update I feel I should've done a while ago. I just updated every Quicksand Art/ Peril art that was marked as "General" and upgraded them all to at least "Mature". This isn't a big change but I feel like I don't want my QS arts to be displayed for totally SFW spaces anymore no matter how mundane it is. I consider wam and all that much more of a fetish now than I ever did when I was younger and now I kinda am feeling like updating all of them for older ages is a better move to make. Yes my arts that I've done at the beginning were SFW and probably are harmless but still I feel better at this moment if I did restrict them a bit even if its after the fact. I hope you all understand and If you have any questions please ask away. Thank you

Hello everyone, hope you all are doing ok. For the most part I have been moderately fine. Though I feel its time to talk again whats been happening. (I may even make A YouTube Video too). I'll divide it into three sections.

Personal stuff:

So First things first, I’ve been going through a lot lately, my depression has officially come back again, stress is very high due to college work and future obligations needing to be met, and lastly one of my family members is gonna pass away because they have received news that they have malignant cancer and that in the near future they will pass away. As you can tell this has made everyone in my close family saddened by this news. I might take a hiatus from the internet if everything becomes too much, though to be fair I haven't been doing much online to begin with so I've basically been in hiatus already.

DeviantArt:

So recently I made a journal for deviantart stating that I am going to leave the website for good. https://www.deviantart.com/j-555art.....-END-894062387
Basically I feel its not worth it anymore. I am gonna miss DA but I am moving on. I just don't have any joy left for it, sadly. As you can tell... this is kinda big... That was my first ever Art site I posted in, the first community I engaged in, the first site to really make an impact. 2017 was so long ago, its crazy. I am still deciding whether I will completely delete my DeviantArt account, or leave it to rot. Most likely I will delete the account though since its not worth it anymore. If I will delete the account it will be at latest a month or so until I do.

The Art/Comic/Videos situation:

I really haven't done all that much this year for 2021 for art on FA, Twitter, and YouTube. I wanted to make and post so many comics this year but I just didn't. Same goes for other arts and videos. I feel like I am letting you all down but I just haven't felt very motivated lately to really do anything creative or really finish anything. To those who have been waiting and waiting I am very sorry. Hopefully I can get into the swing of things soon once things start getting orderly again.

Sorry for ranting again, and hopefully I will be more productive soon, I may have to anyways because I want to port a lot of my art from DeviantArt and still work on my comic. As for YouTube I'm working on a large video about a series I really love, hopefully will come out by Christmas. Thank you all for sticking with me and stay tuned for more. If you have any questions feel free to DM me on this website or on Twitter DM

So.... I am 20 years old now...

Its crazy to think about how (if I live to the ripe old age of 100 which is unlikely but still) I have lived 1/5th of my life already....

Its hard to realize how far I've come and how I still got so much to experience. I am no longer in my teenage years, I am now fully in the twenties. While I will miss times of old, I do look foreword to the future.

I do hope I get a lot more done in my 20s than I did in my teens.

Anyways thank you all for sticking with me and being here :3

20 years ago The World Trade Center was attacked. The world was forever changed at this moment. May the families who lost loved ones on this day 20 years ago have peace and stay strong.

While I wasn't born yet when this happened (Born in the same month of 2001 although) it still feels like it was not that long ago and that the world is still in mourning over this very tragic event.

I am now gonna be in my second year of college, starting September 7th. Even though I will have that going on I will still try to keep up with my social medias and keep working on arts and vids and such.

Thank you all for continuing to stick with me for these years, I hope to continue to keep creating and engaging with this great community! ^w^

I promise that Kataroo Comics will come back but I just need to finish setting up everything with my college first

So Hurricane Henri Is coming my way and I may loose power and be absent for a while. Hopefully not but that is a possibility. If I do loose power I will return as soon as I can.

I will also be posting updates on Twitter as well.

Why cant I get my life back together? Why do I procrastinate? Why am I always tired and depressed? Why cant I get anything done? I just want to draw, do art, do content, do commissions, and actually get somewhere but I can’t because I cant seem to ever get it together. I’m sorry that I have been failing at doing really anything this summer and even for the past year.

Why haven't I posted any comics or much art lately? Because I procrastinate
Why haven't I reuploaded all my art from Deviant Art onto here? Because I procrastinate
Why did I basically abandon my Instagram account? Because that place is a million times worse than Twitter and because procrastination
Why haven't I posted more art on my Twitter? Procrastination
Why haven't I done more YouTube stuff? Procrastination
Why did I not even do stuff for myself outside of social media and just do stuff that I enjoy apart from my family going on vacation and me just tagging along? Because I feel tired lately and not sure why

I just want to get SOMETHING done. I hope I can complete a few more things before I have to go back to college

One of my friends,  CleverDerpy needs help, she ran out of money and is doing commissions to earn some money.

This video talks about Pride month and why it is important. Also this will be my last LGBTQ themed video for a while and I want to cover different topics coming up so I decided to make this video as a good way to wrap things up, also coming out as well ^w^

Enjoy!

Happy Pride Month 2021. June is the time of the year where the LGBTQ is celebrated.

I am Bisexual (tho questioning whether I am PanSexual or not) and for most of my life I have felt bisexual feelings. I still haven't exactly come out yet to my family but I believe they will be fine with it.

Unfortunately for others, that might not be the case. Many around the world still face rejection from families, from society, and can even go to jail for being LGBTQ. Pride Month is important because it celebrates the recognition and rights LGBTQ folks deserve. For the first time in many centuries, people are more open about exploring who they are and their identities. Hopefully one day everyone will be able to figure out who they are instead of what societal norms say.

Hope you all stay wonderful! If you need LGBTQ advice either ask me or find LGBTQ information guides, which are beneficial and definitely will give you information.

Yesterday was one of the worst days I've had in a LONG time. All my depressive attitudes hit me yesterday and I really felt like shit. I really can't describe it to you all but I definitely feel sick from it. I still feel slightly sick today but I'm feeling better. I was telling folks I may take a break from Social media, but in honesty only one place where I feel burned out in and that's Discord.

I really don't advertise Discord because I don't really like the idea of everyone trying to add me to their DMs unless you're a friend or a server I'm in. Also Discord is where I chill out most of the time and not exactly use it for commercial purposes. Lately tho I have been feeling kinda burned out with the App and sometimes triggering bad feelings that can last all day at times. I'm still on the fence whether to take a break from any social media, but if I do it will be Discord. It most likely wouldn't be a long one either.

Hopefully I feel better soon physically and mentally. Hope you all are doing well too.

Summer Break Yay!!!!!!!!!!!

Now that I have time off its time to make art and other content! I actually planning some good things for this year so stay tuned! May make a follow-up journal to explain more in detail.

Rn tho I am resting.... damn that was a painful semester.

You can see the journal about it here

My friend's Friend needs help in Arizona. He may get hit hard by a new bill happening there and needs some help.

Imagine sitting in a room. Just looking at a wall of off color yellowish paint, sitting in a small metallic and slightly rusted chair, with a light above you taking away any darkness. What do you see? What do you see in that expanse of time? Do you start to see shapes in the wall? Do you see yourself? Do you reminisce in the past or present, or do you look ahead into the future? Do you see things in the wall that frighten you? Invigorate you? Challenge you? Or Depress you? After a while of staring, you will wonder if this is reality, if this is the real world. Just a wall of dry off color paint we imagine stuff with. A reality truly built upon nothing......

Yes you read the title right, I am now on Twitter! I am ready to try out the platform, since I see a lot of other furry content creators use it as a tool to gain more awareness to their content, and a place to post art. I am willing to do this because I’d like to try and gain 100 subscribers by July. And yes, I know the risks with Twitter. It is a very tough website on the political side. I will try to look past that and stay on the positive side. Hopefully this will be beneficial for my content and for all of you. Link to my Twitter is in the description below if you want to check it out.

I was thinking about this for a while. Do you guys think I should get a twitter? Or do you think its a bad idea?

I don't know how to feel anymore..... I don't know what to believe anymore....

The world around me just feels like it isnt real anymore, nothing seems like it works anymore.....

I feel like nothing really is working out for me anymore....

It's hard to talk about what I feel because I really don't know what to say....

I just feel like I'm going nowhere and I don't know what to do anymore.....

WELL IT HAS BEGUN!

I Officially began my comic series: Kataroo Comics

More Are definitely here to come :3

Hope this series will be beneficial for my art

:]

So, If you are an 18+ watcher of my FA Page, you may have seen my new NSFW arts. You may be wondering Why I am starting to draw more NSFW Content, something I never Thought I would Ever do a Year ago. Well, I decided that I am going to for two main reasons.

Firstly, I decided to Start because I feel like I need to work on Anatomy. I am trying to work on Fixing How I draw Males And Females and NonBinary Forms. As an artist I strive to improve.

Secondly.... well... I've been meaning on branching out my content to mature audiences too. I'm only going to be posting the nsfw images on FA (unless by some reason I get an e621 account). I feel like by branching out I will receive a much more diverse audience.

And yes, I do know the implications. Some people really dislike nsfw content, or it can effect me in the long run. I understand that the furry art world (Especially the NSFW Furry World) is laden with a lot of problems. Also yes, people outside the fandom finds furry NSFW weird to them, which I can understand as well. This is kinda a risk, but also one that I feel I must try.

But rest assured, THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE THE MAIN THING I DO. The thing what I am ACTUALLY working to be my main thing is the Comic Series I'm working on. The reason I'm posting a lot right now is because I've been working on Art trades. Also here are the things I'm going to promise Moving forward, because it is both morally AND legally important

-Any Character Yiffed is an ADULT 18+ AS IT SHOULD BE
-No character will be Feral AS IT SHOULD BE
-Any Character Yiffed is Consenting AS IT SHOULD BE
-I'm not going to do really out there fetishes other than occasionally vore, sinking, and transformation

So yeah, the basic rules of this site, the legal rules, and the moral code will be followed as I have been and will continue to do. The only reason I'm pointing it out here is because I only want to say that once, and I MEAN ONCE. If you ask for ANYTHING that goes against the 4 rules I set so far, you will be sent here.

Hopefully this plan works well and nothing fucking stupid happens. Enjoy.

MY VIDEO
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HS0vtOrUb6U

The reason is that I’ve been away lately and also my mental health had to get put into consideration, let’s just say my mental health tanked over the past few months . I felt kinda sick lately (not the virus) and decided that I needed to take a little break. I also worked with my gaming channel a lot as well, I finished my long time series, Flash Game Favorites. I also got new character sprites that I plan on using in my next video. My channel icon if you notice is one of them. They were done by an artist named Siniestasma4 on FurAffinity. I will link the artist in the description because they deserve support. As for upcoming videos I have 2 in production, one being worked on since November and one I WISH came out back in December, since it was a shitpost and not a really substantial one. The other one is a cartoon review and was in the works for ummmm…. longer than that. I’ve also been working on a comic series as well as drawing a bit more. Basically what I want to tell you all is that I am not dead, but I’m taking my time with stuff.....

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY




Goodbye 2020 and hello 2021! Can't wait to see what this year has in sto-
