I really gotta make a thing for it but i'm streaming !

Found out FA now converts extra icons into links so I moved every one on my friends to my profile again instead of my journal. I am mostly satisfied.

I updated my profile, cleaned it up, made it pretty But I had to move some of you fine folks to my journal header so I hope that's cool with you guys. I got cleared to pick up my C-pap this friday so that's nice.

I plan to go to a couple doctors for various reasons and i'm slowly working on owed art. I have a few sketches i'll be sending out as soon as it's all redlined by  bill.cipher

I hope this was enlightening and interesting random trivia about me. If you have any questions that aren't listed here just ask.

My tablet is here and it works great. I've done some work with it. Also, my cat passed yesterday. her name was Boots and I loved her. I'm gonna try to get her cremated if I'm able to.

It just happened so fast. One minute she was fine and the next she wasn't... She was an old lady cat though at the ripe age of 11 or 12.

I cried a lot yesterday, though. Today I'm just tired...

I honestly like the new profile. It looks cleaner and less cluttered. Also I cleaned and organized Dropbox and my bookmarks so now I feel good.



My new tablet should be here tuesday to.

My friend Neo is helping me cope and make a plan to take care of the previous post and Beale is doing his best to help too. I'll probably delete that other post because I was having a break down when I wrote it.

In other news, i'm listing a bunch of stuff on eBay from old NES games, wiis, n64 stuff. If I don't use it I'm listing it. It's too much stuff in my house. I'm keeping some of it ofc. But still. TOO MUCH CLUTTER :C. It all works mostly to so I hope someone else can enjoy it.

I probably have 1k worth of stuff to sell I'll be listing in separate lots so I'll let you guys know when that's up. I'm gonna donate a bunch of old clothes too.

Also, thank you to my FB friends and all my friends in general. I love you all and thank you for supporting me and telling me when I'm wrong or telling me hey don't do that. THANK YOU. Don't ever be afraid to speak up if I'm wrong. Ok please tell me.

Critique my art, my work tells me what I can do to improve.

I hope by getting rid of this stuff I can heal and it will help my PTSD to have well less of these old memories and clutter around me. I can make room for new memories. If I owe you art tell me btw. I don't want to leave you hanging.

IF I forget to tell me. Don't be scared. I have short term memory loss disorder and I MAY forget.

If you're not on this list tell me. https://trello.com/b/Yz1BMX3s/giga-s-commissions

Want a refund? Tell me and I'll work with you. I think I only owe two commissions right now and mostly just trades.

I'm only open for icons atm nothing big. I do take trades and DA Points to. But I wanna keep my load as low as possible for a while so heads up.

But yeah thanks for supporting me through everything. I know mentioning I'm open for icons is probably dumb but I like doing them because they help me calm down. I might do a raffle for a few when my queue is closer to being empty too so keep an eye out. I just wanna do something to give back to you guys for being there for me.

There's too many of you to name and Iove you all and my family too. Even if my family is dumb sometimes I still love you guys too. I have trouble expressing myself so I made this rambly post ok.

I can't think of much else to say but everyone stays safe ok. If anyone needs to talk my Pms are open and just ask for my telegram/skype/Discord. I'll happily give it out.

The new tablet I ordered doesn't work with my computer. I'm tired of all this crap happening to me. Art is on hold until next week when I order a different one. My dad said he'd front me the money to buy an Intuos which is a newer version of what I had. The tablet that won't work is a turcom.

Well, I'll start with the good news. My tablet came today and I got a bunch of junk mailed out.

Ok here's the bad news cause I know you guys are probably wondering.


Well, I was denied for bariatric surgery because of my mental health. I'm pretty sure the psych I went to for the letter fucked it up because they sent a 15-page thing and the Surgeon said I wasn't fit for surgery because of it. I believe the psych wanted me to pay out of pocket for more therapy :/ Which my insurance doesn't seem to cover.

The surgeon mentioned that my weight seems to have been the same for several years 330lbs. It's barely changed which is interesting. Also, my air mattress has a tiny hole in it because my old woman cat climbs instead of hops so I'm gonna find the hole and patch it. Then get pet stairs for kitty so her life is easier.

This was a pretty heavy blow to my self-esteem and a lot of other things. As for why I sleep on an air mattress is because every bed I get breaks due to my weight and well as you can see....

I do have some more good news. My insurance covers the Silver Sneakers program which means I'm able to go to gyms that support the program for free and my dad said he'll diet and exercise with me so I'm not alone.

My mom told me to eat what I always eat but less which is fair enough. I just feel kind of lost right now. Not suicidal or hopeless just kind of floating around if that makes sense and yes I did cry. It was such a hard blow to me after all the effort and work I put into getting that far...

I feel kind of numb if that makes sense. Just numb. I'm mostly ok, though. I got a lot done that I'm proud of so there's that. Still cleaning but I got my new tablet and I'm gonna finish the raffle prizes I owe asap.

My weight causes a lot of issues but my vitals are perfect which is nice but I don't know how. We're gonna see if I can get an appetite suppressor from the doc though.

So um my tablet won't connect to my pc any more. I've been having this issue on and off for the last few months and I knew it was on its last leg but it no longer works. The pen won't even register either so i'll try to use my Galaxy tablet to draw but no promises since i'm not used to it.

http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22748990/ Just follow this easy guide I made here :3

Well, i've been cleaning for a literal week. Resetting up my room and cleaning the oodles and heaps of junk out. This also means when I'm done I'll be able to draw more comfortable as I've gotten a good computer chair and an air mattress. So I apologize for taking so long on those trades guys. I'll be pumping them out soon along with something very special. I also got a heat laminator! So look forward to con badges.

Is any one having problems with FA. No images are working including the banner. It just shows up as broken images. Any one else having this issue

fixed it

Ugh, I caught a cold somehow. I've mostly been resting for the past day and a half and it's a pretty fresh cold I guess. Hopefully, it will go away in a few more days.

Casual reminder I have my own disocord sever https://discord.gg/GgRxJM9

Hey, guys, I'm trying to gauge interest in this project I want to do. I was thinking Fursuit Themed trading cards for people to trade at conventions and just for fun.
Is there an interest in these baseball style cards?

I'm thinking of printing them myself on card stock and laminating them. I know lamination done by heat tends to be very thick and nice. It'd mean the cards would be cheaper too. The only problem is I don't know how to package these cards which I'd need advice for since I have no idea how to do foil packaging. I'm considering shrink wrap though and inserting a little paper thing in front of the first card so you don't know what you're getting in each pack which would be completely randomized.


This project would be open to all fursuits with guidelines of course. I want to know how many people would want these. If I get enough submissions I'll randomize who gets printed in which series and who gets a foil card etc.
Also if its popular enough I'll do a secondary series with people's fursonas where you can pay to be drawn on your own custom card and get your own personal card along with being in the series itself.

Extra stuff:

If the cards get popular I'll do an art series of cards.
To get featured on a card you'll need 2 high-quality photos, Your suit must be clean looking and not mangy and unbrushed.
Pay a small fee perhaps? $20 maybe or $25 or upgrade the card to have a holofoil variant for $35.
Cards will randomly be chosen to get the holofoil treatment
Raffles will be held for a free chance to get featured on a card for fun!
Cards will be numbed by series and edition.
Some cards will be rarer than others based on a random number generator for fairness.
Every person featured gets a very own copy of their card and a booster card. Included in the above fee.
Fursuits must not look low quality and badly put together. Most suits don't look THAT bad so this shouldn't be an issue honestly.
Each card will feature the name and a full body photo along with a bio, date, suit maker, owners name, character's name and species. Along with a random fact chosen by the owner. The fact must be SFW.
All photos and info must be SFW as well.
Partial suits will be accepted as long as they have a full outfit on that hides the "Human" parts. As in no skin showing. Unless it is part of the costume itself.
Cards will be hand printed on heavy cardstock and laminated for extra durability. I'm unable to use coated cardstock in an inkjet printer unless I get a laser before the project starts then that will be a thing. Cards will be custom cut with my Cameo machine and have those lovely rounded edges.

As for art cards to be featured on an art, the card will be $35 or $40 and custom art will be made of your character. Similar stats to the fursuit cards or perhaps cute RPG details. Unsure yet. Anyone will be eligible for art style cards. Raffles will be held as well and this is an alternative for those who don't own a fursuit but still want to be a part of an exciting project!


Special edition cards may be made of a character or fursuit for things like Fursuit Tourney winner or something. Undetermined as of yet, though. With art cards, you can choose lots of fun options. As with both sets if you are randomly chosen for the holofoil treatment you will be notified and given a holofoil edition of your card for free.

Possiblity of custom cards being made for events to be extra special !

My birthday is on the 13th :3c

I'm not feeling so hot lately. I've been dealing with constant ear pain, severe arthritic pain etc. I'm also really tired man.

Serious question. Would anyone be down this summer to drive a moving truck to Ohio from Arkansas?

This is a paid job. I'll pay your gas and food and throw in a hundred or two if I'm able to.

I'd only need a lil u-haul or just a lil U-Haul trailer on a hitch.

I'm moving with two cats and two fish. The trailer would hold, A tv, Computer desk, Tv cabinet, and a few misc things. This is an extremely important thing.

I need to be able to move all my stuff out this summer to Ohio. 30 mins out of Dayton. From Monticello Arkansas.

I am completely unable to drive or I'd do it my self.

I need to get out of this abusive situation. It's getting worse and worse and my parents are hell bent on trying to talk me out of moving and scaring me out of it.

My preference is to get a mini uhaul trailer hitched to some ones vehicle.

FAQ

Why can't you hire a moving company?
A: There aren't any here that are reputable

Why not ask family
A: No one in my family would even bother to try. They're all either too busy, live too far away or the ones that are local are shit heads

Why can't you wait till you can drive?
A: I can't, My parents refuse to let me get a license or even teach me to drive until very recently. I can't walk anywhere because it's very rural out here. I can barely walk as it is.

What's going on exactly?

A: TLDR Version, I have a lot of mental and physical issues keeping me from living life properly. My parents are very verbally, emotionally and mentally abusive. They go out of there way to harass me every day and bully me over any thing. I get 800usd a month but it goes to my dad and I see zero of this money even tho it's SSI. He claims because it comes out of his social security I'll lose it if he moves and I don't get it because I live her. He buys junk food, cigs, and pays for things he doesn't need with it and bullies me for asking.

I see none of this money, Get yelled at for spending money on food. I have AFRID - http://eatingdisorder.org/blog/2013.....what-is-arfid/ and I'm bullied over that including other disorders. I'm constantly misgendered, questioned about why I'm trans heavily. And put down and told to shut the fuck up if I try to defend my self. Or vaguely threatened or my parents threaten to get rid of the cats. Their dog destroys all of my stuff they refuse to train it.

I'm constantly put down, bullied for my eating habits, told I'm fat, told no one will love me. Told to get over my depression and to act right etc. And my physical problems are me making excuses.

Any thing I can do to help?
A:Spread this around ! Commission me to help me build up funds to get out of here etc.

Why not put up a go fund me?
A: Trust me I've tried and no one would even donate or flick an eye lash at it. Plus I need a driver. I think I'll be able to pay for it if I use all of my monthly check.

Where are you going?
A: I'm moving in with friends.

I have felt absolutely awful holy crap. I keep falling lately. I've fallen twice today. I can't stand or sit for long periods of time so I'm always in the bed pretty much bed ridden.

I tried to sit in my chair today and within 30 minutes my hips and back hurt so bad I almost puked everywhere. It was an 8 level on the pain scale. My sciatica was acting up severely. I'm pretty much in severe pain and on good days it's medium - mild pains.

I can't even walk around the store I have to ride the scooter because my knees WILL give out. My dad still won't get me knee braces because "I don't need them" :/ he said he probably isn't even getting me a birthday gift this year. My bday is in Feb.

I need a lot of medical supplies I can't afford and I'm feeling super grumpy/shitty. On top of that, there's a lot of negativity and toxic junk going on at home so that's why I'm leaving in Feb for a while.

The Dr won't do much about my pains claiming it's all because of my weight but I can't exactly exercise when my pain level is an 8 most of the time :/ or I feel so awful I'm gonna barf. Most of the time I'm on the laptop I'm in bed laying on my back because that's the most comfortable position I can get into and even then I'm still hurting. If I sit up in bed I just slide down eventually ugh I wish I had a recliner...

My hands hurt a lot to. Between carpal, arthiritis, the pinched nerve in my shoulder etc.

I'll be back in march to my house because I have a lot of Dr's appointments. I plan to eventually bus down here from Ohio though for my hormone doctor.


I also made a list of things I need for my personal health in case anyone is curious. I would trade art for some of the things.


Link: http://a.co/eu0DQvX

I went to see a doctor about HRT which is Hormone Replacement Therapy for those of you who aren't aware. Well, first appointment and I get my prescription for T along with instructions on how to use it. I'm just so overwhelmed and happy. I have an amazing doctor who is experienced with transfolk and I'll see them again in 2 months. I'm still planning to visit  bill.cipher in Feb too. My birthday is the 13th

I'm also super into Toon Town now. Toon Town Rewritten. It's fun but could use some fixes here and there. I plan to have everything I owe done by the end of Feb too.

Yeah, So good stuff goin on. I'm very delighted. As for Time Sensitive art. That will be done asap.

This is my Trello - https://trello.com/b/Yz1BMX3s/giga-s-commissions if your not on there and I owe you art please let me know asap.

I have my own Discord Server https://discord.gg/GgRxJM9

Feel free to join ! We have a bot, tons of channels to play with, 2 voice channels (More in the future) and more ! We may get a steam group at some point but only if there's enough interest. It's bee themed and its called The Hive for fun.

We have rp channels, Nsfw, Clean, general, etc etc. Also a bot. Please join c: I'd love to have a nice active channel where every one is happy and meets new people.

I'm sending my laptop off soon for repairs. I will not be able to do art until I get it back just a heads up to people I owe stuff to. It shoudln't take that long honestly.

Any one know a good character database ? Furrific has a decent one but I don't like having to upload art unlisted just to do profile pics for them. Weasyl's is more basic and ok. Toyhou.se is better for hosting fanart of the character. I like to be able to just link people to a page to show my charas but i'd love something more organized. Not sure what to do. Should I just use Toyhou.se ?
