So I made a separate account for Dora,
General | Posted 2 years agoHello folks.
This is just a small journal saying that I made an account specifically for my character Dora. It's going to focus on more medical settings and harsh play that I don't feel fits my usual account, since that's what she was made for.
Since I received permission from an artist to post the terrific work he did, I'll be gradually uploading things over there.
If you're at all interested, I hope you enjoy.

Artemis - Spaceship Bridge Simulator
General | Posted 4 years agoJust though i'd see if there was any interest in this game. I've been interested in getting a group to play it sometime, free of charge, and could use several folks for a few hours. Likely saturday or sunday, whichever time most people had free.
Any interest, leave a comment.

If you want to read a good Anubis story...
General | Posted 4 years agoTake a look at
DiaperBold who made a terrific first chapter for me. You can read it here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/41232659/ and be sure to leave some feedback. He opened up recently for commissions and he does some really high brow writing.

General | Posted 5 years agoIt's my semi-annual call out for authors and writers. Last time I was pointed towards
diaper_plush who wrote a fantastic story about going to a family wedding. https://www.furaffinity.net/view/34811904/
But now I'm looking to get some more ideas done. AB/DL content, and either tons of sex or non depending. I have several ideas, but I'd like to see a writer's style before proposing plots.
So if you're interested, or know someone who's looking for work, leave me a reply with a link to some work I can peek at.

Looking for ancient Egyptian story ideas.
General | Posted 6 years agoI'm curious if the creative folks would be willing to spend a few brain cells on me.
I'm thinking of getting an Anubis story commission, but I'm not sure what to have in it. It'd likely start with him already in his new role, probably one full diaper, but unsure what other activities to include.
Any ideas?
[Edit] I think it'd be helpful to give a brief summary of the situation with Anubis I consider 'canon' in this context. For anyone who's peeked at my Anubis pictures, there's a brief story snippet in each one. For anyone who hasn't peeked, Do it.
Synopsis: At some point in the ancient times, Anubis lost his station to The Usurper. Unclear how, perhaps through trickery or unknown magics, a mortal ascended to the level of deity and took the place of the Lord of the Dead.
Anubis' home base was a city isolated roughly in the middle of a desert, populated only by fellow Anubians. Mostly brown furred and of smaller build than their Lord, they served as officers, soldiers and common folk depending upon the will gifted to them by their creator. Males and females alike, though naturally the males tend to take more labor intensive jobs, such as soldiers and farmers and the like.
Immediately after the takeover, Anubis was reduced in station. From golden thrones to golden diaper pins in under a day, the power of The Usurper far more than he was able to handle now. His closest generals and officers were not reduced to baby status, though the diapers were enforced. Gradually it started to spread among the guards stationed in the temple that Anubis called home(not like a disease, more like different guards were 'instructed' of their new clothing each day.) And each guard and officer now had an additional responsibility: taking care of their former Lord as needed.
In essence: All jackals rightfully in diapers, The Usurper controlling the city completely, and rather than everything involving magic it's treated as how a monarch might approach things, except there's no real chance of disobeying. No one might be happy, but fear of the power The Usurper holds would keep everyone in line.

Looking to hire a writer (ab/dl content)
General | Posted 6 years agoI'm interested in getting a story done in the somewhat near future when I get some money from the upcoming overtime. What better way to spend it than on debauchery?
I'm just looking for an example or two of your writing and your rates. As noted in the title, probably expect heavy ab/dl themes.
Generally I look for writers who enjoy exposition and details. If you're a writer and might be interested in the future, please leave a reply and I'll let you know.

To all nerds who build computers:
General | Posted 7 years agoI'm considering saving up for a desktop computer I can use and upgrade in the years to come, and I don't know what to be looking for.
Primarily looking for a gaming PC, high speed, high graphics, ultra cooling, general stuff.
But I don't know how much it costs. You check out newegg.com and they're listing the cheapest around $1k. If someone knows what they're doing, how much cheaper could it be? I.E. If I hired one of you trustworthy folks, how much would it cost?
I'm looking to get some ideas, so any info would be appreciated.

Irma update
General | Posted 8 years agoSeems the worst is over. The hurricane weakened as it got closer to me, then veered away at the last moment. Like a true coward in the face of a Good.
All in all, everything seems fine. Can't leave work until the water level goes down a bit. According to my neighbor, my house looks fine from the outside, but we're without power for a bit. But there's cell service.
So there's the update. Thanks for the concern, everyone.

General | Posted 8 years agoWell this is gonna be fun.
I live on the West coast, they're saying it'll be a category 4 hurricane when it arrives tomorrow, but also the eye will hit my town directly.
Family has evacuated, I'm at work for the weekend. The joys of being a first responder.
No clue what type of damage to expect, I'm sure I'll be fine. I'll give updates in a few days if and when internet comes back.

General | Posted 9 years agoLast week I put out a call asking for help, having come into some sudden and severe money troubles.
Thanks to my friends, and one lovely lady in particular, I met and exceeded my goal. I anticipate no trouble in paying everyone back before too long, and I should be closing on my home next Friday.
With luck, everything will be awesome after.
Thank you again.

Does anybody still play Ironclaw?
General | Posted 9 years agoJust curious if people still do regular games of that online or not. Been meaning to find new friends, befriend them, murder them, steal their spouse, murder them too, and start all over again.
I mean play a Dragoon. Yeah.
I mean play a Dragoon. Yeah.
Review time: Hardcore Henry(spoiler free)
General | Posted 9 years agoI just got home from seeing a showing of Hardcore Henry, an entirely first-person shot movie. And therein-lies the gimmick. We've seen first-person shot things before, most notably was Doom back in 2005, and a couple small scenes in other movies, but this is the first movie shot entirely in first-person through the main character's eyes.
The story is as simple as a FPS game could make it. You wake up with no memories, your wife is helping you adjust when bad guys come in and kidnap her. You escape and begin a quest for revenge to find and save your wife. Part cyborg, part man, all ass kicker. Think System Shock 2, I suppose.
Firstly, it's very obviously a video game movie. There's tons of FPS tidbits in there, minor lines about 'calibrating' or following brief orders to get your bearings, much the same a game does to make sure you learn the controls. There's a little weapon instruction, an escort mission, overwatch mission, all the high points from all the Call of Duty games.
Secondly, it also involves a lot of parkour, so think of a mix of Call of Duty and Mirror's Edge. Lots of running, jumping, rolling, falling.
Finally: The cast is outstanding. There's only three main actors, but Sharlto Copley plays an exceptionally "unique" character role that's certainly worth the price of admission. You might remember him from District 9 or Elysium.
Now the downside. Because it's a first-person perspective, you might get a bit motion sick. I saw it with a friend and he lasted about halfway through it before having to leave, and he plays FPS games. I wasn't affected, but have some motion-sickness pills handy if you think you might be queasy.
All in all, it's a gimmick movie, not going to set box office records, but it's something very fresh and very different. I heartily recommend it.
Final score: 4.5/5

I tend not to upload things because I prefer the artists get the sole amount of credit, but that's not good enough for SOME people(*cough

General | Posted 10 years agoAlright, having read reviews and the like, having seen that love interests are indeed varied and multiple, it's with a heavy heart that I need to form a petition to let Bethesda know they insult the world by forgetting something major.
Why can you not make your dog a romantic companion?! This insult has sat on my very last nerve.
Everybody please sign the petition at https://www.change.org/screw-the-pooch and don't buy Fallout until they hotfix this massive injustice.

Looking for suggestions for popular FPS Multi-player games.
General | Posted 10 years agoHaving recently gotten a set-up to play games again, beyond low-key strategy games, i'm interested in getting back into FPS games.
I've got Left 4 Dead 2, Far Cry 3(no one seems to play this online anymore) and Team Fortress 2. Are there other multiplayer games densely populated with ritalin-popping, trigger happy douchbags that I can play with?
Battlefield, Call of Duty, etc. Not sure which games are still populated or not, so any advice is keen.
Also cheap. Cheap is important. Can't afford $45+ to try out a game. :)
And this is for PC, btw. Just to clarify. :)

To all BFs, TBs and AB characters, question for you all.
General | Posted 10 years agoWhat's your character's 'end game'? How do they make the transition to adulthood, what happens?
I've been curious about how people view different aspects, if they have it in mind at all. I'm not talking about the typical babyfurs, such as the cute pics, because those are self explanatory and have no needed story. I mean the more complicated, fetishy things.
I see lots of sissy characters, baby boys being given girl clothes. What's the reason behind it? Do they grow up treated as girls as well, is it a punishment, is it only for when they're toddlers by a mother who wants a baby girl for a bit?
Teenagers being punished with diapers and infantile treatment(My character is guilty of this one). What's the reason for it? How do they transition to adulthood, do they have any special meaning?
Adult baby characters might have an interesting back story as to why they are that way.
There are many stories/histories that are geared towards 'Babied throughout adulthood and taken care of.' but, while nice and fetishy, isn't real, so I think there has to be more to characters than that.
So i'd like to ask everyone who has an interesting character story, give us a brief synopsis. Satisfy my curiosity. :)
To start it off, as to how my character came about in his adult self, the diaper/baby punishments started when he was around 10. His single mother felt, after hearing from other parents, that it would be something to try, and it worked. If only her son was totally well behaved instead of constantly doing mischief. The baby stuff grew more intricate, baby furniture getting added, and going through puberty in diapers helped to associate arousal with diapers, so he ended up becoming something of a fetishist. His mother was fine with that outcome, as it beat other, 'less safer' alternatives.

Ever wanted to know what happened after ISB 5?
General | Posted 11 years agoAs some(or most) of you know, I originally planned on getting a comic series done of post-Incontinent Student Bodies Issue #5, involving my character Seifer and his mother Selene.
Here's a handy link if you don't remember. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8725231/
However, finances and the like conspired against me and I had to give up my dream of a booklet filled with naughty images in story format. Sad for me?
However,
gamestreamer was kind enough to take on the project of actually writing the story out for me.
Using the outline I provided to put it together, he actually gave Selene a wonderful personality on how a mother should act in such a situation. Not psychotic, not reveling in punishing her (grown) kid or getting sexually charged, but doing what a parent would simply because it was in the best interests of the child.
Everyone go over and favorite it, then comment because all artists and writers thrive on comments.
Thanks again, Psudo, for an outstanding job.

Some good news just came down the pipe.
General | Posted 12 years agoWell, at long last it happened.
Last July I made a journal reporting I finally got a job license I had been studying for, and I've been attempting to get into a job field where no one leaves unless they retire or die.
Well, someone died. :-D Or retired. I don't know, and I don't care! Last week the County utilities called me and set me up for a pre-employment physical. I went in, peed and turned my head and coughed, and then was asked to wait until I got to the exam room to do that.
So in I went. I got the physical, they confirmed I was indeed alive and that was it. Two days later I got a call from Human Resources with a concrete job offer.
What does this mean?
In some ways, i'm going to be a little upset. My current job is shifts of sitting in a security box, getting paid to play WoW all shift. This job, i'm going to have to actually work.
No more midnight shifts, I might actually need to be in the presence of The Light Ball(The Sun) for forty hours a week.
My pay will be doubled. I estimate around 30k a year, plus benefits and a boot allowance. This means i'll actually have savings, a chance to clear my debts, buy a working car, pay rent, buy porn, go to conventions again, repair my fursuit, get medical care. All the fun stuff you can't when you're scraping the bottom of the barrel.
2014 is starting off well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpV3pAVPnS4 This is how I feel at the moment.
I should begin on the 22nd and then it's off to the races.
Now to actually study so I actually know what the hell i'm doing. >.>

All the fun stuff you can't when you're scraping the bottom of the barrel.
2014 is starting off well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpV3pAVPnS4 This is how I feel at the moment.
I should begin on the 22nd and then it's off to the races.
Now to actually study so I actually know what the hell i'm doing. >.>
Just saw Man of Steel *spoilers*

That is all.
That is all.
Finally got some good news
General | Posted 12 years agoFor those of you in the know, i've been studying for, and worrying about, taking my state test to be a wastewater treatment plant operator. Fun job considering my interests, eh? But it's a job that never occurred to me before, my mother met a guy at her job who ran a small plant by himself last year and i've been learning from him since then. He taught me the ins and outs of the job, how to do all the important jobs. Take samples, check results, mow the lawn, feed the pig and scrub the weirs.
It's a shockingly interesting job, dealing with people's crap. Not very hands on, you just monitor the giant tank, take samples and make sure nothing is getting septic, add chlorine at the end and keep the area maintained. Other than that, you'd drive to the local lift stations(small wells that collect an area's wastewater and pump it to the plant) and check the readings on the pumps. If anything is off, you call a contractor to fix it. That was at a small plant, which i'll probably be working at, so I expect things will be the same. Minus the pig.
Anyway, I took the test today, and two and a half long, grueling hours later I finished and got my results: I passed. I passed and I never have to take the test again, i'm so happy.
The guy who's been training me will sign off on my time next week, so I mail in my papers and within a week i'll have my official license and can become a plant operator immediately. Several positions are already open, and I should have no problem getting in a local spot.
This means a large increase in pay, roughly double what I get paid for doing security, flexible work schedules, benefits, 401k and paid sick days and vacation.
Best of all, in about three months when I get financially settled, I can buy SOOOOOO much more porn. :D So my 'Lessons Learned' comic will continue being made.
