New Phone!
Posted 2 years agoA 2023 model Motorola G - 5G 128 GB blue smartphone. Its twice the data capacity and 2 inches "longer" than my G8 Plus. It also has a better camera and -slightly- faster core. That and it has Motorola's LEGENDARY battery life.
I got it on a 2 year contract with the Rogers Connected for Success low income access program.
The phone is financed to 16 CAD a month plus about 31~33 for a bill (which includes a phone protection program). So I am going to pay a bit more than my current plan at the end but its worth it.
It is full 5G service at 250mbps (or highband 4G) and I dont get charged extra data if i go over my limit (I just get throttled). I also have unlimited video and MMS messages which i did not before and all the same features as previous. I also "ported" my old number over to the new phone and am gonna keep the G8 plus as a backup with no features and a new number. (its a 'burner' anyways heh.)
--
Plus the calls are absolutely amazing. I dont sound like I'm in a muffled basement anymore x3
I just need to be careful until I can find a case for it heh...

Posted 2 years agoIt never ends when you are a disabled lv2 'aspie' with a ~128 IQ...
-Parents are at risk of losing their house because their retirement income is going to be less than half of what they were making while my dad was working They are both now disabled senior citizens and I am their primary caregiver by default.
(My mom is deftly disabled physically and has life long trauma and "identity" issues. She only worked a few months total at a couple of jobs 40 years ago and my dad has "Early Onset Alzheimer's" forcing him to retire off of LTD. They are over 50k in debt because they had to live on credit to survive for the past 4 years as well
-- They couldn't afford a birthday present for me. Christmas for them is on the line too. Though I did have a nice small dinner and cake and I'm grateful for that somewhat...
(But I'm still down about $50CAD this month and have to do my laundry in the bathtub while tearing up a rain-check for something I really wanted at the grocery store for an insanely low price [about $34-36 I think, for lamb chops at $4.99 a pound; 12 chops] Laundry costs me $20 because i have to take it to the laundromat to do.
- I need a new mouse that's longer than 16CM due to my "number one" being huge. this is going to cost me over $100. I cant take it apart to clean the terminals (as I'm getting "missed clicks" and "unintended double-clicks") and its 6 years old. Anything smaller than 16cm long by 13cm wide will cramp my hand badly--due to the nerve defects that are mentioned in my profile
- My computer can no longer run Roll20 properly for my DND game either and its annoying my playmates. I'm losing another social activity because of my income and technology (and its definitely not RAM--as I've "maxed it" on PC1330@16GB DDR2).
--
...And of course working is impossible now for me--due to my 3 disabilities too--So yeah...
Just god punishing me for Slothiness and Pride again...
(More shit to annoy people with while i blow off steam i guess...)

At current behavioural pace, I give my dad 7 years or so before he is "ambulatory" thus resulting in both my parents going into long term care, as I am not capable of helping my mom 24/7).

My apartment has no laundry facilities because the homeless people took a pair of pliers to unscrew MULTIPLE 3-inch-long #12 wood screws, broke down a heavy fire door; then ripped a 1400 dollar washing machine apart with a crowbar---for about $120 in drug money / quarters. This is probably going to be left broken forever, as the building's owner can't or won't fix it.
They homeless are let in [or they are able to disable building physical security] and frequently spend nights in the unoccupied basement. they have been known to pee all over the walls down there and use the hot water heater's pilot light to smoke weed and cook [after breaking the door to the laundry room]. This caused a building evacuation once as it set off the gas detector. It'll likely cost multiple thousands to prevent this from happening again and to restore the "luxury" of in-house laundry facilities.
The owner would rather have the building torn down and condemned rather than fix it for sub $1100 a month CAD rents... [The going rate in Windsor for a 1 bedroom]. So the management company just keeps giving the run around to prevent souring "relations" and turning 12 people [about half on some kind of assistance and 'last-chance' subsidies] onto the streets through "reno-victions". I also have some heavily damaged. "Lath and plaster" that needs about 30lb of compound and about 100h of labour to fix. They wont do it for me and if I ask or push it... I'm homeless.)

(According to M$ putting in a video card will void my "upgraded" [from 7] win 10 pro and not be "continued". My system is not TPM 2.0 capable and is only PCIE2.0. So even if I did get a older used card at $800-1000 for the ability to use roll20 MINIMUM; Id have to upgrade EVERYTHING but the case at close to 1400 if i wanna play Command and Conqueras well. [they dont sell Win10 licences anymore and my other hardware is too old for Win11 - including my DVI HD monitor~!]

Though talk of religion is "social landmine poison" again... So I wont elaborate~
Birthday Pokèmon...
Posted 2 years agoYup another year down and a good one too.
I am level 39 now~
Or 39 months x3.
Ill be spending time with my RL parents tonight. Then tomorrow its a nice meal for myself while spending time with my online family.
There may be a small get together with my RL sis soon but nothings been mentioned to me. They have been sick though so it may be delayed.
Already got a great set of RPG dice from a really good online 'furrend' so I'm happy. (Something else from them is also in the mail apparently...) ^_^
More is to definitely come though.
--
I have much to celebrate this revolution 'round "sol" for sure.
And I feel much happier these days!

My regular blood sugars are back to normal too... Finally.
Im doing better... (Thankfully)
Posted 2 years agoI lost 6 pounds since starting Diabetes treatment with Metformin in early July -- 65 to go to reach a modest 210. (I should be under 200lb though for being 5' 11" but that weight isn't realistic right now).
Im still struggling with high blood sugar readings (averaging 9.2 over 14 days) so I'm on Ozempec now too. (Injecting myself is "interesting"). Only been on it for a few weeks so still in transition on it.
Working on diet too but its a "work in progress" as I wait for the "SDA" to be approved by ODSP. (So I can go back to the gym and have more money for more veggies and fruits)
My liver is inflamed though by "severe fattiness"--Which may be diet related--but I'm waiting to see a stomach / digestive specialist for further testing.
Alongside my "moderate anemia" they are both issues. My Iron is normal though, so I'm not "bleeding" from anywhere at the moment.
I was wrong about the CPAP machine issue too, believe it or not. Turns out I CAN snuggle a plush with it on. Its just I cant let it touch my face, or it'll interfere with the mask; which breaks the "seal" and stresses the machine (I need really high pressure because the machine literally becomes a ventilator at times for me). This is true even if i sleep on my side--though I sleep on my back more with my plush in one arm at the level of mid-chest. I can have him up to my neck on one side as well--(opposite to the side my nightstand is on with the machine)--since the hose I have is extremely long.
Jury is still out on what'll happen if water gets into the hose though...
...Rather expensive distilled water that I need 12L a month of (since my machine uses 300CC a night lol).
Money has stabilized with the SDA and additional credit access. So right now, I'm financially self-sufficient. In debt a bit, but I'm surviving. Hopefully this continues for a while.
I'm feeling less stressed and anxious these past few months and my outlook has improved. My past still haunts me and keeps me up some nights but its not all the time. I wish I could do more than just help my aging parents... or sit on my computer and randomly watch YouTube... (or sleep with my Pikachu plushie...) but maybe with the gym I can be a bit more out of the house for excercise. I may have a bit more money to see a movie or buy a game i like too... (Though i dont play much games anymore...)
I need a new computer too as one of the USB3.0 headers on my 14-yr-old 'mobo has broken pins x.x~
--
Im also less likely inclined to even THINK about applying for a medically assisted death. I get fleeting thoughts occasionally but my friendships are much stronger now (as strong as they have ever been in my life!) and I realize how much harm to others this would cause. This makes me take the "honourable path"political martyrdom and "fight to the end" for them--If not for myself ...and possibly cause more progress to be made.
With the promises of the current government in charge of Canada too (with the Autism Strategy development mandate and Federal Disability Benefit Bills among other things) societal progress is occurring--but slowly. A change of government is all but guarantee now (with the political climate federally) next election though. So we will see if this "progress" (or shift to the "left" as some call it) is halted or continued.
Provincially though; looks like the "Pillsbury Dough Boy" is gonna get a third 4 year-term--despite 'bullcrap'. A "double-blue
will make life even harder for me and the other 600k or so of people who are on the ODSP and cannot work due to their disabilities as social policy will continue to erode.
(stories like this: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/wind.....sidy-1.7011008 for example, mean I could be next to lose my 5-600 in rent subsidies--or my unit to "renoviction" or other issue. That would leave me homeless, or like $10 left a month for food, no internet, power bill ...or phone. That is if I can find a "safe" and "affordable" single unit at all. Without having to room with a "druggie," or "cleptomaniac;" or worse: face institutionalization, at least.)
I still reserve my right to make commentary if things go wrong because of this. It makes me banned from a lot of places, people, and recreational activities; but my existence is a "crime against nature" anyways. I'm gonna be hated enough to be shot in some places for "existing" and I have to live with that..
I am hopeful though things will get better-- and PERMANENTLY so... Without having to 'set myself on fire' again.
~~Hopefully!!

My poor VISA.. (edited 25092023@2237ESDT)
Posted 2 years agoI broke down and caved....
I took out my old CC and bought some pamps....
They'll be here next week
! pack each of Green Large "Trest" and one pack of "Astro Babies" Large.
Imma be waddling for a while when I layer them (one of each brand with prints on top), as photos of the Trest make them look cartoonishly thick! Hehe x3.
May my poor visa balance forgive me....
EDIT: 25092023@2237ESDT
I bought some "Rearz Overnight XL Booster Pads" too, so i can avoid layering those adorable "astrobabs" and wasting them. I've researched 6 different types and brands and while Rearz is a "hated" company: they are the best choice according to advertised size and absorbancy stats.
I got all my stuff through amazon too, which means no porch thieves to publicly out me--or awkward convos with parents who have no idea what to do with my infantilism.
Just a trip to the post office inside my home pharmacy down the street

Posted 2 years agoSomeone unexpected came though for me at the last minute.
Ill be ok now thanks to them.
Still gunna apply to ODSP's special diet allowance to add some security and access to more produce and (expensive) good carbs.
https://www.ontario.ca/document/ont.....4-special-diet
Like I said I can get up to 250 CAD a month on top of the regular ODSP amount for "health reasons" like
- BMI over 40 (mine is 45)
- Diabetes
- Lactose intolerance
I will likely have enough to not need regular help anymore. Only maybe for emergencies but who knows.
Thank you everyone for the concern

YAY!!
Posted 2 years agoI has green Carolina Repears in my pot growing....
Finally!!!
I have 5 in various sizes plus 3 more flowers on my 9" pot and a 2 foot plant.
It took em long enough.
I hope they ripen before frost so i can actually take a pic and deliver on my promises to share...
Frost is usually mid November but it doesn't stay above 50F after about mid-October. sometimes even after Canadian thanksgiving it gets too cold to grow "hot plants" like Tomatoes and Peppers.
(Cayennes, Birds eyes, and 'Jales do ok though -- Ive experienced this with a 10 pound Bird's Eye harvest up till my birthday on 11/16. We got these off only 5 small plants...)
It'll depend on nature as to how long i have as "Super Hots" go dormant below 50F and stop growing from what I know.
Please cheer for my insanely hot experiment to grow and ripen strong!!
I was lucky enough to find the last plant back in May at the nursery and convince my parents to buy it for me^_^;
...Hopefully I dont burn a hole in my stomach or go blind when i cook em off to make a sauce with them and other peppers (Habaneros from the store, some Serranos from the garden as well, and a "Butch-T Scorpion" my moms "aid worker" promised me.)
...And hopefully the government doesn't fine me for growing them like one of the friends of said "aid worker" was (~according to her)
The plants helped me to get over my moping a bit. Im okay now until I have to confront it again someday... -.-

some moping...
Posted 2 years agoHad a reality check today...
It made me realize that everything I remember in my past is UNVERIFIABLE past me leaving university and joining the fandom in late 2004.
All I remember was being driven by "dominant milieu style parenting" to the point I could not control myself anymore and it got my Bi-polar so cycling that my parents were too afraid of me to live with them
They were once again told to charge me with "domestic violence" get a "restraining order" and give me up to the state or a group home at 19. Just like they did when i was 3 and couldn't hold a fork right.
My Lawyer/advocate that dealt with me through my foster care and the one that got me into 'real school' at 16 managed to negotiate "independent living support" so that I could get help moving on my own and things calmed down.
It cost me a career, a life, and a future though because a year later I resigned from university and never looked back because I'm not capable of handling the "canadian engineering curriculum"--when my average was 20 points below the current admission standard for the degree I partly studied under; and when studying and class time ensure I dont sleep eat or manage my "ADL" properly. There are only 168 hours in a week and I was pushing 124 dedicated only to school functions.
Everything else is unverifiable now maybe and including some of my professional work (though half of it "may" be behind the "national security" of 3 countries so I cant really talk about it and no one has ever given me the "lecture" about "stolen valor" so who knows )
I just realized this today after I made another social mistake... Though its been coming because I struggle with "long term memory issues" , PTSD and a bit of "disassociation" that has led to full-on short-term psychosis. Hell I may just be schitzophrenic who hasnt been treated for 30 years).
(and no one wants to assume the "professional liability" to sort my questions out, just chemically sedate and restrain me until I die in a nursing home when things get ugly)
Ive done nothing for 20 years of my life but hide behind a computer and do dead end jobs. When I turn 65 I will have no pension, and no legacy of history.
No wife, no kids, no money, no degree, no history or major discoveries, no published nothing.
Its like I never existed and there is nothing I can do about it.
When my aging parents die or are found "incompetent" and moved to long-term care. I too will be placed in a nursing home to live the rest of my life alone and in my crap filled diaper (that is only changed twice a day by gov 'allowance" rules) because I will have no resources to support myself beyond the inadequate ODSP (which ends at 65).
...This may be 5-6 years out given my parent's current path of prognosis.
Though its gonna be crappy having this happen. I do not plan on taking a medically assisted death anymore.
...But I dont know what else to do.
MY life has been a waste....

the problem with growing "native" plants to your region.
Posted 2 years agoThe squirrels and other creatures dig them up and eat them!
That's everything! Including roots, flowers, stems and leaves....
For example:
- My Pink Coneflower had its main flower gnawed off by something and there is nothing but a stump there ><
- Squirrels seem to have a fetish for digging up a plant called "Foxglove." I have used tons of soil to replace what they dig out.
- Bleeding hearts bleed in claws.
- They ate the stem of my foundation plant; Pink flowered Begonia. -- I have to go cold calling for a new pink-flowered one now!
They Haven't touched my Asters yet though. Ones cloned/hybridized off of an endangered species locally.
PS my Reaper is re-producing. Ive got 3 flowers and double the growth since this journal:

- They ate the stem of my foundation plant; Pink flowered Begonia. -- I have to go cold calling for a new pink-flowered one now!
They Haven't touched my Asters yet though. Ones cloned/hybridized off of an endangered species locally.
PS my Reaper is re-producing. Ive got 3 flowers and double the growth since this journal:

So now you have to log in to twitter to see 'real' art.
Posted 2 years agoI know about 200 different artists who have just disappeared from the "light" internet forever....
As they post no where else but twitter, invite only telegram, or behind paywalls that as a "disabled individual" I will NEVER BE ABLE TO AFFORD on a regular basis. (Not with Ozempec being out of pocket on ODSP.)
Like I said before my diabetus journal; the Ontario Family Court banned me from twitter in 2008 so I cannot make an identifying account on there in any way. I was causing too much "estoppel" last time; and it was decided that if i didn't delete my account within 30 days I faced [b]45,000 possible counts of contempt of court: in each case I was "blocking" (by revealing what I did publicly.)
(Be in mind when analyzing this is that estoppel is defined differently in Canadian law than it is in US Law and the case that made the declaration and reasoning were "sealed" at the superior court level. The 'justification" was to protect the confidentiality of said arrangement and "professional reputation" of the plaintiffs.)
Ive been browsing babyfur twitter for well over 14 years without an account because of this... Now it is gone alongside most of my link to the "real fandom", instead of 'shit-faced FA'.
Challenging this order could cost up to 15,000 or more CAD in legal fees and there is no guarantee that the "child support arrangement" hasn't expired, even after all this time (The "dependent adult" was disabled and went to the same institution as I did and I was in "Conflict of Interest" with her father over my own "family support issues". He was a former "ICM caseworker" whom just disappeared under "personnel issues" and I cant find much else out without paying retainer to a liability attorney and a $2000 subpoena in open superior court (not including other fees)..
...This was two years ago that I last investigated.
People say its a cesspool and call-out haven and "toxic"; but you cant even go to a "cubhub" or con, or "be vouched" without a twitter now (at 4 different cons). 75% of the fandom still participates on that website in some way and no one cares or talks to you without a twitter anymore while dissapearing from FA like mad! NOTHING ELSE EVEN HAS THE DENSITY TWITTER HAS!
Its MANDATORY TO HAVE A TWITTER TO BE A BABYFUR!! MUCH LIKE IT WAS TO HAVE A MARCI BADGE 20 YEARS AGO. It was your 'PASS'.... (and I dont even have a badge by a "real" artist anymore. Mine is 20 years old...)
Now what do i do?

IRL strikes again.....
Posted 2 years agoMy A1C went from 6.2 to 6.8 in 3 years despite my weight loss and one on one efforts with a dietician.
Ive been diagnosed with the diabetus.
time to stuff my body with more meds and start pricking my finger and logging my blood every day.
(I still have to pay for 65 strips a year as ODSP doesn't cover what my dr wants me to do)
Beyond the fact I cant afford to make the diet changes I need. especially in my choices of starchy foods.....
I barely drink soda and I'm not a big sweets guy. (though I do have some every once in a while) but i haven't lost a pound in 4 years.
Ive lost a foot off my waist though...
Time to go on a 1500 calorie a day diet or turn into a rabbit??
Fuck my life....

incomming gallery suspension...
Posted 2 years agohttps://www.furaffinity.net/view/52682107/
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/52682970/
All the banned NSFW characters (wet and messy diapers) [at least Pokémon seem to be a low hanging fruit, though Digimion, Hamtaro, Sanrio, and others have a few characters that would make a pretty good vis-a-vis to similar rules] are in that link
Stuff like this isn't allowed in NSFW but this is:
(no offense to jade as I love his work)
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/52036081/
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/42166329/
among others...
Either they are just fudging the rules or there is some specific species targeting going on thats completely unrelated to "minors" as once again FA is arbitrarily applying its own interpretations to fit some other deep seated targettting method beyond its own explinations.
Like an NDA or legal case that has no merit or something else????
I see inconsistent moderation for sure...
I know for a fact though that if
FJF
TaviMunk or
FangtheFox get targeted or suspended for their wet and messy diaper work the fandom is gunna burn this place down and go back to paywalls and invite only forums like protected twitter to play....
Or they become "pedophiles" and go to IB risking beat-downs by IRL vigilantes looking for scores that get mixed in.
I know for one thing I as a pokémonfur no longer feel welcome here like I once did. I am back to wandering the woods looking for a proper "base" to be on that isnt going to get me arrested of have my ribs broken because I like an occasional forced diapering pic.
If my commissioned work gets me the 4th level offence and banned for a week. I will be blanking my gallery and no longer posting art here. And I will revoke any artist who draws me from posting my "likeness" on this website.
(not that Ill have any art in the next two years as Ive made different financial commitments but nontheless)
I will still plaehold and journal here but my content will be on inkbunny until they put a bullet in my head or try to label me a sex offender again like that prosecutor in 2014 did for (that sites use)
Then....
well...
Ill have to make a legal go fund me to challenge my ban from twitter in superior court so I have a place remaining to be online. That could cost well over 10,000 CAD with legal fees as no one Self-Represents in Open Ontario Superior Court.
(a ban from FA would give me a legal avenue to challenge the estoppel claim that has had be banned from the only realty "open" place left that babyfurs gather. As much as callous and toxic drama persist there people forget that is a part of being a furry too.)
Otherwise its time to end my life medically as Ill have no place left to exist but a nursing home...

Bill C-22 passes~~
Posted 2 years agohttps://www.parl.ca/legisinfo/en/bill/44-1/c-22
https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/can.....ment-1.6448999
The federal government's bill to implement a new Canada Disability Benefit passed Parliament on Tuesday.
Bill C-22, from Minister of Employment, Workforce Development and Disability Inclusion Carla Qualtrough, proposes to create a federal income supplement for low-income, working-age people with disabilities, modelled after the Guaranteed Income Supplement.
There has been pressure on the federal Liberals to make good on this commitment for years, after a previous version of the bill died in the House with the call of the last federal election.
Qualtrough has billed this proposal as "an important part of Canada’s social safety net" and a "game changer" that would benefit hundreds of thousands of people with disabilities. However, it remains unspecified how much money would be offered.
(...)
However, senators Marilou McPhedran and Kim Pate voiced concern that the federal government rejected a "key" proposed change to the legislation that they said would have protected the disability benefit from potential private insurance claw backs, due to "concerns over provincial jurisdiction over the regulation of the insurance industry."
"Time will tell how this private insurance loophole may be exploited. If—and when—it is, Parliament will have a second chance to correct it. But, it will come at the expense of the disabled community, who will be made to suffer because the government failed to act courageously at the outset," said the senators in a joint statement.
(...)
Sen. Brent Cotter said before the vote that much as he would like to include protections against future claw backs, doing so would likely be unconstitutional.
“Whether we like it or not, and I don’t, the no claw backs clause has within it the seeds of an almighty constitutional fight, which Ottawa would assuredly lose,” he said.
“I'm not happy with that outcome,” he also said. “I am as concerned about the stories that you have heard, that I have heard, as anybody, but there are limits to what we can do. Indeed, we have an obligation to respect those limits, whether we like it or not.”
The passage of Bill C-22 is being celebrated by the disability advocacy community, as a “historic milestone,” while noting work remains to develop the regulations that will determine the benefit’s parameters.
Once again, a good thing / bad thing and only time will tell if it works...
Or if our constitution fucks up this national social program like everything else....
Disability pensions are being nationalized once and for all (though regulations are yet to be) and a FEDERAL standard of living is going to be guaranteed instead of letting the provinces be the decision makers.
Though it could leave people with "high functioning" "non-severe" disabilities (just take a look at CPP-D or the DTC) with only welfare ($780 instead of $1400 or so) because the qualifications are too high (with ODSP being cancelled because of federal uploading).
https://catalogue.servicecanada.gc......F=ISP-2519.pdf - CPP-D medical qualification
https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/c...../t2201-22e.pdf - disability tax credit qualification
(ODSP is considered a "limited" function rather than a "total" function loss unlike federal programs (aka nursing home or feeding tube level stuff vs going in front of a judge and cross-examining a few medical experts with enough paperwork)
It could also be a lesser amount because the provinces may consider it "dollar for dollar" income off of provincial programs (or cancel provincial disability programs all together) which will wind up with less again. Much constitutional wrangling must be had and created before people like me see any federal money.
The "anti-clawback" clause was declared unconstitutional in debate, so it can still be taken off of other income support programs (like private insurance or rent subsidies) as well. But for people who are born with qualifying disabilities private insurance is a pipe dream.
Losing my rental subsidy would be just as bad as a 300 cut to my stipend(s)...

Anyone growing Carolina Reapers that can answer a "?"
Posted 2 years agoHow long does it take for them to start actually growing from seedling?
I put a 4 inch wide by 5 inch tall seedling into about a 16 inch pot that has a inch of "river rock" with the rest being specialized vegetable soil mix.
It has been fed twice in the past 5 weeks and is watered daily. We got it about a month ago.
I cant tell if it has broken out of its "seedling" stage yet and taken root in the new pot or what its doing. Its certainly not dead yet.
I'm seeing no growth on it.
I know I wont get peppers till at least September (120-140 days maturity) but I'm not even seeing flowers on it yet
My parents Serrano in a big planter box with other vegetables has nearly doubled in size and is throwing out the first bits of flower buds alongside our potted sweet Shepard/Horn Peppers (same light and moisture conditions)
Are they just slow growers or do I need to get a monster 24 inch pot (and fill it with soil and rock -- delaying it further)?
I cant tell as Ive never grown a "super hot" before.
At least not from this stage

My life is a political undertaking.
Posted 2 years agoIm tired of holding this in...
Since people call me a socialist or communist...
Since people find my views and 'advocacy' "abhorrent"...
I am alive because of socalistic principles. I survive because of a bare minimum socialistic program that was put in place by a right winged government to satisfy a court-ordered writ to support people like me against the will of society. A series of these has been in place, back and fourth since the 1970s (R v. Macdonald ) This failure of "good-governance" is because my socialistic government doesn't wanna make it a matter of constitutional law like other democratic countries do.
What I get is not enough to live on properly and many people on the same program I am are starving because they cannot fulfill the capitalist way -- due to what the universe birthed them with. People ridicule us and send us death threats for advocating for more.
I barely survive with no way of making my own income whatsoever. I am the enemy of capitalism unless i become a slave
Keeping people alive like me through taxpayer dollars is socialistic and the enemy
I have no charity ANYWHERE that speaks for or is willing to provide me with anything but rotten food and infested furniture. Its taxpayer money or I DIE
I am the enemy of society because of my disability and my history so i should not exist. But I do
My socialistic society mandates that accommodations for survival be made against the majority of society for our survival. Otherwise I would die. This is a communistic principle that makes my country hated.
Without intervention. It will never be enough though because society in itself will never accept people like me no matter how much we bend and contort to the wills of the majority. We can only try and fail... then starve to death.
I will continue to fight under these principles until an ICBM (Peacekeeper Missile) is dropped on me and my country of Canada. Fuck your Moltovs and drive-bys with .50 caliber handguns. I'm ready to die for my cause.
Rather than starve to death because of ill-formed extreme ideals
Even if it means I die alone because no one wants to be friends or associate with me.

Infantilism Criminalized..?!
Posted 2 years ago- some big name Big fur associated with the babyfur community has been charged with such a boat load of 'offenses" that his bail is 7 figures.
-- the nature and specifics of the charges have not been revealed publicly. Nor has the jurisdiction of said charges.
-- several artists and most of the community has blacklisted said individual based solely on said alllegations without a conviction.
-- babyfur related sex offences when charged leads to "zero liability" which means you are automatically guilty and may as well kill yourself because you are dead anyways.
---And you will die alone.
---conviction is not nessasary for this "scarlet letter".
-- FA has made its policy against Pokemon and Digimon "underage facimilies vis-a-vis" despite legality in US and Canada saying this is not nessasary. (FA is going above the rights granted by case law, at least in Canada--but it is entitled to as a private American Site).
---This including the OHRT case ON MATTERS OF INFATILISM heard in 2008; and administered by myself after spending 3 weeks in involuntary commitment for having a visible dirty diaper in my trash that a mental health caseworker found. Case law supporting the arguement against FA was heard and read with specific mentions of art of my fursona
picaduck. A piece of which has been attempted to be used as a child pornogrophy conviction (and failed) no less than 12 times since it was produced.
https://tribunalsontario.ca/hrto/ -- Ontario Human Rights Tibunal
(this case is not publicly available on legal databases because OHRT "guidance cases" are not published publicly. I was told not to keep the "case/docket number" memorized if i "valued my life".
(it drives AI software mad because of " evidence of euphoria (sexual stimulation) and "misplaced tail location during a diaper change (visible gentiatlia"). A judge ruled this to be a false positive but Police out to criminalize infantilism (numbering well over 500 high-ranking officers before their darknet forum was shut down in 2008) 'continue to use it as a "vis-a-vis" argument against my OHRT case.
(PM me if you wanna see the image. the artist is family to me and I wanna keep it non-public out of respect to this person)
Definition of "vis-a-vis"
Im seeing a coincidence....
Are we all criminals now because of this ass that forced FA to go into panic mode?

The new update...
Posted 2 years agohttps://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10552819
It is what it is but "child-like proportions" can mean whatever the fuck the interpreter wants it to mean as there is no true artistic standard with the "sugumori" style used in Pokémon and Digimon unless you "anthropomorphize" them a bit and make them more human than they appear to be in the show.
I get the no private parts, sexual pose, or subjective "Fetish demonstration" with the "sugumori" style but yeah it can mean "anything" or it can mean nothing. As ive said before the bigger a site gets the more conservative it gets. And the harder it is to deviate from the absolute pure of anything. No dirty diapers, no diaper changes, nothing forced, and a whole bunch of other stuff that quite a few artists have removed already from their galleries.
At least they are allowing pre-clearance with trouble tickets on images now instead of just blanket bulldozing major people of the babyfur fandom and leaving people to DIE ALONE.
Im waiting for them to ban babyfur work outright unless its clean diapers and 18+ only like Fchan Did. Then everyone can go back to trading images behind paywalls and invite only servers...[b]
[b]I think this is what
Dragoneer and
Fender (admin) want anyways because there is nothing left that we can "legally post" of anything from our community with even a 'squick' of anything.
it is his community after all so if we are not welcome he may as well be honest and do it outright and all at once instead of bits and pieces/ Or giving half-truths.)
Or theyll do what the police did too and try to have me charged with a sex offence for having "Pokémon and Digimon in diapers" on my computer outright.... << I was tortured for 3 days then beaten for 'not complying" (signing a confession) with the interrogators (through another offense [not recognized in the US]) because of this back in 2014 so I have to be more vigilant than FA is or my life is at risk.
I guess those asshole cops won out here after-all... even after one of them had to be KILLED by court order)
Time to cut my dick off with rusty shears in public over streaming since I cant do fuck all nothing else to entertain people!!
AND IN YOU KNOW WHO's name!!!
They are beginning to interfere with "proper socialization" again anyways-- even though with my Cipralex I cant 'get much' as it is
I checked my gallery though, so I should be ok. I'm not into too much heavy fetish stuff but I've been known to experiment ( like my 'sanitized diaper changes and forced diapering). Moist of my work is done without the "chibified style" as well, since most Furry artists tend to do Pokémon in unique and anthropomorphized bodies anyways.
If I am removed from FA though (like eventually every babyfur on the site except those that ban me for favoring a "pedos" 'clean' work) I will probably just go to discord and telegram only with a minor presence on IB (so I have somewhere; but Ill be risking having the police beat me down again) but with my IRL ban from twitter and no money (or rep) to subscribe to any patreon account or private server...
...This may be the end of me!
It is what it is but "child-like proportions" can mean whatever the fuck the interpreter wants it to mean as there is no true artistic standard with the "sugumori" style used in Pokémon and Digimon unless you "anthropomorphize" them a bit and make them more human than they appear to be in the show.
I get the no private parts, sexual pose, or subjective "Fetish demonstration" with the "sugumori" style but yeah it can mean "anything" or it can mean nothing. As ive said before the bigger a site gets the more conservative it gets. And the harder it is to deviate from the absolute pure of anything. No dirty diapers, no diaper changes, nothing forced, and a whole bunch of other stuff that quite a few artists have removed already from their galleries.
At least they are allowing pre-clearance with trouble tickets on images now instead of just blanket bulldozing major people of the babyfur fandom and leaving people to DIE ALONE.
Im waiting for them to ban babyfur work outright unless its clean diapers and 18+ only like Fchan Did. Then everyone can go back to trading images behind paywalls and invite only servers...[b]
[b]I think this is what
Dragoneer and
Fender (admin) want anyways because there is nothing left that we can "legally post" of anything from our community with even a 'squick' of anything.it is his community after all so if we are not welcome he may as well be honest and do it outright and all at once instead of bits and pieces/ Or giving half-truths.)
Or theyll do what the police did too and try to have me charged with a sex offence for having "Pokémon and Digimon in diapers" on my computer outright.... << I was tortured for 3 days then beaten for 'not complying" (signing a confession) with the interrogators (through another offense [not recognized in the US]) because of this back in 2014 so I have to be more vigilant than FA is or my life is at risk.
I guess those asshole cops won out here after-all... even after one of them had to be KILLED by court order)
Time to cut my dick off with rusty shears in public over streaming since I cant do fuck all nothing else to entertain people!!

Im potentially getting over $400 in July from tax credits...
Posted 2 years agoTime to knock down some of my wishlist's now that I FINALLY replaced my laundry basket and garbage can.
...Things Ive been trying to replace since January.
Got new pillows and an 8000BTU AC since my last journal too (I owe $100 for it)
I'm starting to sleep properly because of it!!
Though trauma and other issues means im still waking up every 2-3 hours sometimes. I'm getting better.
--slowly
I also can finally get a 10lb bucket of Drywall finishing compound and a special surfacing trowel to fix the " cosmetic spalling" in my kitchen that my landlord isn't required to fix under Ontario's LTA. Plus its been like 3 months since my Manager has said anything about it anyways. I'm tired of looking at it and having company bitch about it when they come.
(My picture frame's anchor pulled out of the wall taking a 3 foot circle of plaster out on an external wall and the picture is "not original" to the apartment. Even though the picture was here when I moved in it is still considered "mine" and thus not "wear and tear". Its gotta be filled in 1/4 of an inch at a time necessitating a MASSIVE AMOUNT of "goop". I will be replacing the mounting properly though when its fixed. Also working on another bunch of spalling [from old age] that Is on the same wall.
Also; even though I cant afford it, I need to paint this place and re-finish the trim throughout the apartment. It looks ugly and I get bitched at about it by my parents.)
And maybe some "kitchen toys" off of my Amazon Wish-list x3 hehe?

Posted 2 years agothis recives Royal assent
https://www.parl.ca/DocumentViewer/.....3/royal-assent
(An Act respecting a federal framework on autism spectrum disorder)
They want a report within 18 months of how bad things are and a full fledged program in 5 years....
A bit late to help me as I'm 38 and pretty much "old age trash" now to most of the causes of barriers that I have now sadly... Though the next generation will benefit.
Ive also talked about this before in a journal about a year ago so I'm surprised Parliament is actually doing something:
https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10216359/
And I hope this will stop the yo-yo of institutional life for many of us with ASD. I hope it will stop the severe emotional and psychological abuse that I suffered while they tried to cure me up until 16 then abandoning me.
I hope its better than throwing us on a 1200 cad a month budget (maybe) with no hope of ever improving or being comfortable in a society that goes out of its way to avoid dealing with and accommodating with us. Hell some say they are trying to eliminate us by burning the "access" and "funding" candles from both ends with a certain program.
Now lets hope the intention of "nationalization" of disability pensions soon passes too. Its about time Canada follows the rest of the G20 and makes a program for the "disabled who will never work the prerequisite 6000 full-time hours needed to qualify for.. CPP-D"
https://www.parl.ca/LegisInfo/en/bill/44-1/C-22
(An Act to reduce poverty and to support the financial security of persons with disabilities by establishing the Canada disability benefit and making a consequential amendment to the Income Tax Act)
Though I may lose more than I gain from this "nationalization" depending on what happens. At the very least it'll make moving provinces easier when my stipend drops below 1200 CAD a month

Ceiling project delayed indefinately...
Posted 2 years agoBlame my less than scrupulous neighbors who destroy things.
Including smashing walls and windows to the extreme as well as COMPLETELY DESTROYING a washing machine for its coins.
I set my desk back up and am now back on the computer. Two weeks is long enough to have an office (and centre of my apartment) all packed up.
I'm wrecking my phone too... For being on it so much... x.x
Ill be starting some of the small "repairs" that I can when I have some drywall compound.
Not touching the ceiling or cracks though... That's for the pro.

I am feeling better finally.
Posted 2 years agoI still have a bit of a 'hoarse' voice and get stuffed up at night; but I am feeling tons better.
I still have random coughing fits too; but not often.
Thanks everyone for the well wishes! It is really appreciated.
--
I also wanna give everyone a head's up as well :
My PC is offline for a few weeks while they fix some of the holes and cracks in my 100 year old PLASTER walls. So be warned! Unless you have to call me in an emergency I will be slow to respond as I am typing this all on my phone. I ask for your patience while I get this 7 year old issue fixed.
(Yes my apartment is over 100 years old... With modern fixtures and services thankfully. I got original finished wood everywhere too x3. Freshly patched and maybe painted walls are gunna look awesome with cleaned and shiny Red Oak and Maple everywhere ^o^)

Sick... again...
Posted 2 years agoNot covid this time but an old friend.
I thought my immunity was better than this.
My uuber fighter-jet-like IGG/IGA TOTAL multi-phase hybrid antibodies are lagging BIGTIME and helms are asleep on my T and B Cell Battle-cruisers T_T
..The mysterious ghost sinus issue.
I'm 'coughing up a lung' from post nasal drip and "stuff" galore--congested to hell.
My throat is so inflamed and painful that I'm almost on liquids only at this point. Like whole neck hurt to move type swelling
...and I got sinus headache every time I move my head around!
And it cycles between better and worse leaving me with little sleep!
I'm into week 3 now with no abatement!
I haven't slept well in a while because of the coughing and nasal blocking. but I can still eat and function a bit (sans tiredness). I'm not throwing up either.
I saw someone yesterday for it. No fever and "background sinus pressure" isn't severe enough yet to do anything about it. I was given some nose spray to dry my sinuses out (hopefully without bleeding)
It'll go away on its own... hopefully...
(...)

I was sick like this when i was 15. It took 2 months before the Dr's recognized it was serious enough to put me on antibiotics for a month. It had been a good 6 months of short cycles of treatment and even a visit to a useless ENT before someone realized it was "serious business".
X.X

I crappie hope this "mess" doesn't last that long this time. I have many more commitments and schedules to deal with 'outside' of "eeww x (cough + congestion) =/= CoviD =/= bans" BS (even with a negative test and a mask)
Ive gone through a case of Kleenex and a box of this (which is expensive and only works for a few hours) and I dont have the resources to keep buying that stuff.
...or any commercial remedies at all...
https://ca.traditionalmedicinals.co.....mon-echinacea/
Ive tried hot lemon with cayenne pepper too, all that did was ruin my throat and make it feel like i needed a hospital... -.-
I think i need this but it pisses everyone off when i get it because people think its poisonous here. In fact I had poison control called on me last time I picked a leaf of it double steeped, and took 20mL of it. My dad forbade me from ever touching it again...
Its godly for this kind of issue though. (I'm out of money for it though and its the middle of winter x.x). It stopped "throat bleed" level inflammation and "insane" cough instantly....
https://www.healthline.com/health/mullein-leaf
Like instant on contact...
O.O
Between that and a month of antibiotics nothing else seems to work for me when I was like this in the past...

I need green healing energy and a sinus vacuum now x.x

FA killed the babyfur community -UPDATED-.
Posted 3 years agoADDENIUM 1/20/2023
I think i share similar feelings to this person at this point about FA and the babyfur community, and like them I really have no where to go but back to being a chatroom recluse after this. And even then my world will only consist of 6 active rooms and about 120 active people as I don't really go out much else (nor would i be welcome).
It isnt an "exit" but that much isolation because of many factors will make it a "high risk situation" for me. Other than family and a small group of "recluse" locals and family, I dont socialize much outside of my computer. I haven't really found anything beneficial outside of it at this point nor do I fit in with much due to various socioeconomic factors in my life and local disparities in the region I live in.
At some point this will come back to bite me when the police start knocking on my door for too much isolation and run weekly wellness checks (like what happened in 2008) but institutionalization may be inevitable despite its undesirability.
Beyond that I don't really have that much in my gallery to work with though so I don't need to do any cleaning (crosses fingers)s but I can see a lot of people who don't heed this getting very much banned off of this site for not 'sanitizing" properly.
https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10452575/
The new rules are so vauge that it has practicly killed any sort of regression or babyfur work to be posted on here. in fact many have given up posting anything with kids whatsoever because of the conservative backlash that the new rules on this site have been put forth.
Babyfurs are being banned en masse from this stie because we occasionally have dirty diapers or we have butt shots and are chibi fied (Im waiting for my ban too with one of my images but will see)
Community heads are refusing to draw characters under 18, clean -- or otherwise for fear of being chased away by flash mobs or banned outright from one of the few places left. Its almost taboo now to have any characters under 18 for fear of ruining the rules. It makes it impossible for people like me to get work done at all without being "invited" by word of mouth or "reputation"
(and my rep score is like -100 but not that I can really afford art as it is)
...Or blocked by larger and larger communities and left alone to become troll food.
People are too afraid to publicly post any babyfur work for fear of being ridiculed or cancelled, or it is all behind paywalls where you can throw out "decency" and anyone who doesnt have at least $200 of disposable income a month to even look at work,
The places left have no moderation at all and will get you arrested and beaten if you are found on them by a Canadian or UK Judge.
There is one place left, and it is controlled by a right winged nut job that I am banned from joining an account on. That place could ban the work too much like FA is and just might in the next few years to satisfy its "advertising needs".
Its been said that babyfurs have never really had a good time of managing their own communities but if we wanna exist outside of a heavily sanitized and "white washed" enviornment that exists only behind paywalls and invite only "darknet" chatroom and private sites....
We need to do something...
(stuff im forbidden from even touching because of "rep" but that is a whole 'nother story)
'liking diapers and drawing anything under 18 is going to become a "high risk activity" resulting in severe correctives and punishments being doled out the authorities.
https://www.lawinsider.com/dictiona.....isk-activities
(especially in Canada and the EU)
Especially with everything being moved "out" of social media and onto the "dark" parts of the internet.
My fav list is now going to become a constantly changing list of hyperlinks to peoples personal sites and I'm going to throw up the 1000 gallery passwords like I did before "Social Media" unified everything. I cant afford the hard drive space to keep 20 years of favorite art. (only to be ridiculed for it by the cops here when they start pouring out pails of USB sticks with art of insert "artist" here who is a pillar)
I just feel bad about "market" conditions for the content producers who have lost their easy to access mass medium. Social media withdrawal it'll make it harder to find "new blood" before burn out and retirement happens.
Eventually our art could disappear completely with the way things are, but such is life.
I just don't like having to live in the "dark web" for socialization for things but it is what It is. No one ever said life would be fair.

Posted 3 years agoMy folks found a 8,000 BTU air conditioner on local Facebook buy and sell in "near new" condition. I was incredibly surprised to find one this early and this quickly but nonetheless...
Still working, in good order and with a thermostat and side baffles. I'll fit in nicely to where my current one is as I have a custom brace in the window for it But Ill get someone to look at it to make it safe. Its missing a remote though sadly x.x
My dad says its about 5 years old and it takes 740 Watts of power compared to my old Ac's 650W
I should be okay to plug it in during the summer but ill be careful and see how "loading" is.
It'll be a nice upgrade from my 5,000 and Im likely going to save quite a bit of power because of it - while maintaining comfort.
That's one less thing to worry about, especially considering how I used that one-time 500 payment from the Federal Government.
I owe my folks another $125 but I can pay that off in 2 months flat if i work on it and itll beat having to save heavily for the next 6 months until the summer.
and Ill make up for it in utility bills too...
no more "今日はとても暑い" from me all summer hehe :P
