A serious question. Your thoughts on furry porn.
Posted 9 years agoHi,
In the past I had an addiction to furry porn, whereas it was a daily thing for me. It continued for some time until it got to the point where I was having anxiety, and feeling more and more lonely.
Eventually, through much difficulty I reigned in my habits, and asking God to help and break free, I did. Some times I will fall, but it is not often, certainly not daily like it was before, and I am not actively seeking it out any more. It has been a difficult few years but I consider myself to be mostly reformed, as it is no longer an addiction.
During this phase I came to see artists who drew porn as part of the problem, and I refused to add an artist who drew porn to my watch list. To this day my settings are set to "general", if I want to check a gallery I have to go into my settings, enter my password, and set it to "Mature, adult", then go back and visit the page, it makes it hard for me to accidentally leave the SFW filter off and "See" stuff I shouldn't.
Recently though I found some small, mostly defunct furry groups dedicated to keeping things "clean".
What is you guys' thoughts on this? How many here like porn, and I would be interested to know how many really don't care for it, at least the furry stuff. I would love to hear from you.
Recently, though, my attitude has changed, while I am not "Pro porn" it does not help anyone to thumb their nose at people, or make people feel guilty, or bad, because that doesn't help anything and I regret making anyone feel ashamed. While I have overcome a lot, and am not the person I used to be, I am not a pillar of shining righteousness myself XD
So let me know what you think. No judgments. We all struggle with shit.

Hi friends, some people are doing me huge favors.
Posted 9 years agoHello,
So as many of you know I am struggling to try and be a better artist. The following people have granted me permission to re draw (Not trace. Duplicate their lines the best I can from the screen so I can get better) their art as long as I give them credit, which I am happy to do.
They are also artists and need to make money.

Three week fast from furry
Posted 9 years agoAs some of you know I love to write, and I wrote a story that has a moral, but is very dark recently... I know I don't post my stories here but I should. I also do not post 1/20 of what I draw.
But I was in church recently and I was convicted. I do not want furry to become my god, lower case. I view furry websites every day, this one and clean furry on tumblr. I love writing about, and drawing anthros.
But like anything else, if I abuse it I will lose the privilege.
So while I was praying to God about the whole furry thing, instantly I heard the words, "Three weeks", and a knowling in my hearty I should fast from it. For those who do not know, fasting is giving up something, if you fast from food, it means you do not eat, only drink water, but some people only fast from some kinds of foods.
So that's where I have been for three weeks.
During that time I have been given a lot of wisdom and knowledge. I also met a girl... She is one of a kind... and she is a ghost, she does not exist in the system, she has no birth certificate or social security or ID of any kind.. And I don't know what to do with her... We have agreed to... be friends... Leading to possible courting. IDK. I honestly don't know. It's been up and down an and off, she has experienced none of the world, she is so pure and innocent and pretty but that's not all good....
My world has been sorrow and pain and violence... I said the "F" word and it scared her... We are total, complete, utter opposites. I am learning to open up my heart. It's such an uphill battle. It leaves me happy or devastated, and it is all so weary.
Some times I crave being around her and other times I am desperate to be alone. Time will tell.
I meant three week fast not three days sorry

Some things happening, and a weird question lol
Posted 9 years agoHi!
I hope everyone is doing good. Thank you for your input in my last journal. It turns out in order to draw more I just have to do it- no excuses. And I have so much on my heart I want to draw.
So me mum has a 91 Dodge truck with the CUmmins diesel in it. I frequently have to do work on it (For everything but the engine, of course) and I am appalled by the lack of proper engineering in it. For example, the headlights have 16 gauge wire for high and low beams, but the ground wire is like 18 gauge... Why...
Irony is saying "I will never own a Chrysler product" (Literally, I said that... lawl) to owning a Dodge van 2 hours later because the price was too good to pass up.
The 99 Dodge conversion van has become my daily driver, due to ease of tool access, storage, and it's just so comfortable! You *melt* into the seat as it envelopes you in soft, supple luxury. And it gets 18 MPGs, too. V6. I'm gonna rebuild the transmission as it's only a 3 speed auto. Power everything which means neither window rolls down, both regulators are shot, but the sound system in it is theater- like with full, rich bass coming from like, ten speakers lol. In short I love it.
Price: $450 :O The guy who sold it to me is a friend of mine, and he said his neighbor is selling the exact same van for $3,800.
I am working on making my unimproved (Raw, just dirt) land (5.3 acres) livable, starting with putting up a fence. I already have 1/2 a shipping container on it. But I rented a large 300LB auger to drill the post holes...
What an ordeal. It turns out with all the sweating and cussing I got one hole *mostly* drilled, with the remainder of the attempted holes going down an average of just a few inches...
Rocks and clay...
There are no utilities there, but I do have a handful of good generators, and there are two wells there, but without a pump or plumbing, just casings with water 300 feet below.
It's going to be a spartan living situation for a while for me, but I have lived with less before, on a ranch.
And that's about it... I am still writing and loving it, I may post some of my stories here in the future.
Was at the verizon store buying a new phone and showed the guy pictures of the wolves. People are pretty similar in how they view wolves, "Scary", "Intimidating". It's interesting how the truth is so not what people think... Wolves are our best friends... Just shy and pushed away because we have hunted them with prejudice.
Oh! I changed my intro page, I shortened it quite a bit because it was getting long, I think. Let me know what you think...

I need help (Artists)
Posted 9 years agoHi guys,
So I daydream pretty much all day about the stories, comics, funny things I have in mind to draw. Literally I am so psyched in the morning to draw.
But then I go to work and I bust my ass for 8-12 hours and when I come home the last thing I want to do is draw. I am slowly trying to forge my will into forcing myself to draw, as the days go by.
That's all I got. I need help with motivation.
How do you artists go from imagining things to actually creating them? What discipline do you have to do?

Is there a group for...
Posted 9 years agoHuman/anthro worlds, relationships, etc? I'm fixing to post some human/anthro art I'm just wondering if there's some group for that.
Funny story..
Posted 9 years agoI used to work at a high end men's clothing store. So high end I once inventoried a Remy leather jacket that cost $15,000. My job as receiving manager had a relatively high turnover rate. If you crammed a box full of sport coats into your trunk and drove off you may have more money in merchandise in your trunk than you made all year. So they went through people in that position. I guess it was hard not to pick from that tree.
But in a year and a half of working there I never had a single item go missing. If something was unaccounted for I made sure it was found.
The owners knew me by name. They were wealthy people. The wife once bragged to me how she saved so much on her $75,000 diamond ring she just bought.
I learned their computer system. I figured out how to do things they wanted to do for years. And I wrote manuals on how to do it so people could easily understand. It took a lot of time but I did it.
One day after working for them for nearly two years (which was an eternity for them in that position) the CEO came to me with a proposition. If I accepted, I would be head of one of their largest selling stores, a place where houses routinely sold for a million dollars or more.
I would be in charge of everything. I asked how many days off I would have a week- the answer was none, except for vacation time. Could I hire a fill- in? Nope. Just me. 24/7.
The sallary? Guaranteed $1,200,000 a year. He said to start. It would grow with time. That's seven digits. No. I didn't add a zero. That's one million, two hundred thousand dollars, US a year just to begin.
Knowing the owners it was no joke. It would be hard but I could do it.
He gave me a week to consider the offer.
During that week my relationship with the white wolf was growing in ways I could not have imagined. In all my life I never had anything worth waking up for. I never had something that made the pain worth enduring.
Ever.
He was all I ever had.
And then I realized.
If I took this job I would never see him. What was growing between us would stop. I may be able to buy him from the owner after a year of not seeing him- but then again I might not. His heart would break in that lonely pen by himself.
I drove every weekend, 240 miles round trip- to see him and the wolves. They were all I had.
In the end the CEO walked numbly away, probably shocked after I turned down his offer. It wasn't the work. I could do the work.
But it was the fact that I wouldn't see him anymore. That it might be a year before I see him again-and that was too long.
He needed me, then. I was his only friend and ally in that lonely pen.
Was any amount of money worth breaking his heart? A heart that was unique... A heart that loved me. No, the answer was, and is still no.
I was talking to a friend today and I told him about the time I was offered over a million dollars a year and turned it down because of what I had with this wolf. That is why I am posting this.
I don't regret it. What I shared with him was more special than all the money in the world. You cannot buy love. Not from a person and never from a wild animal. True love must always be given freely from their own free will.
He was my best friend. Knowing him was the brightest time of my life. Now I sweat and suffer in the sun and break my back for a living. But it's okay. He was worth it. I would give everything to hold him one more time in my arms, to look him in the eye and tell him that I loved him. To watch his eyes glow golden in the sunlight when he was happy. Just one more time.
I have two dogs that I love dearly. But a wolf that loves you is beyond value.

I might have a problem...
Posted 9 years agoUgh I knew I posted some pics last night night but I was so drunk I don't remember what I posted, so I come here to delete them, and I realize, I probably shouldn't do that. I am sorry for being emotional, and I am embarrassed about my behavior. I probably am going to have to re- evaluate my alcohol consumption among other things. I'm trying not to be a drama llama.
Anyway yeah I did lose my best friend, the wolf, it was tragic, and it was gnawing at me again last night, I was going through pictures and it just hurt so much.
So yeah it's 330 and i'm going back to bed, I hate drama, but when I am emotional and drunk I can be a drama llama.

Posted 9 years agoSO I was viewing this: http://www.motorcycle.com/features/.....honda-c90.html
And it brought back memories of me skidding across the desert on my V star after going 55 down a dirt road after it snowed (And melted)
Good times, good times.

I think I'm in love (Test rode a motorcycle)
Posted 9 years agoSo I was in buying a cable lubricator at my local motorcycle shop. Of course, it is law, you must look around while you are at the motorcycle shop so I complied with the mandate, I looked at the bikes.
A liquid cooled V-twin caught my eye- no it was not a V rod.
Sure enough, my stars, it was a Victory! American motorcycle company. I'm not the biggest fan of H-D, no innovation from them.
Hey I told the guy, I want to test ride that thing.
So he said sure, pick out a helmet so I did, and I test rode it HE GAVE ME PERMISSION TO GO ON THE HIGHWAY so I took him up on that. Had he not of said it I wouldn't have done it. Oh, this is the motorcycle I test rode: http://s1.cdn.autoevolution.com/ima.....-burnout_1.jpg Gosh I'm sorry I forgot the picture.
It's been ~4 years since my V star 1100 got stolen. I had an 02 Classic in red and cream. Like this one, but mad max: http://s1276.photobucket.com/user/t.....0e3f5.jpg.html
That b*tch had torque... Reliable bike I took all through the desert, on dirt roads, even thru sand. I've jumped it too, too many times to count. The back shock was completely gone... I got good at it, landing on both wheels, for a big, fat bike it landed good.
I test rode a Victory cruiser one time and it was nice. Nice...
My V Star made torque and that's what I like, even more than HP.
So I took this little rascal Octane out for a ride, and I obeyed all laws, except for speed because it's a test ride, I gotta see what she will do.
I went down the steep hill on the 89A, the one my truck hates, then back up it, I was able to hit 117MPH going back up, I only slowed down because there was this dude kinda swerving ahead of me so I had to slow down, I didn't know what dude was going to do, but passing him was a glorious breeze, that bike is sh*t ton fast.
Honestly was worried about the single disc front brake (Bigger bikes have dual front disc brakes, this one only has one disc brake up front, the front brake is 3/4 of your stopping power, the back break is only kind of a "helper" esp. in dirt)
But my fears were ill founded. That front brake has a shit ton of stopping power is was more than adequate, in fact it was excellent. My V Star had dual front disc brakes and the Octane spanks my V Star in stopping power. Not knocking my 'Star she was a great bike and I still love her.
It took two hours to stop breathing heavy, I felt CLEANSED afterwards, I forgot how much I need a motorcycle to LIVE. Not to exist but to LIVE.
When I get one, and I'ma get one soon, I'ma fit it with street knobbies and dual sport that nasty girl. I'm gonna ride her in the dirt and she's gonna beg me for more.

A liquid cooled V-twin caught my eye- no it was not a V rod.

Ohhh kay
Posted 9 years agoDear friends,
on my latest submission, and I know this is such a bore, but when I post loving pictures of me with animals- any animals- it does not imply romance, I love my dogs dearly but that love has limits, please friends, consider the (Hidden, possibly misconstrued) meanings of your comments, saying me and an animal is a "Couple" is not right in my mind and I am sorry to say it.
I am going thru a breakup (With a human... female) right now and I am super super sensitive and hurting right now, everything is too much, and I am sorry. I'm beginning to close in on myself again, close out the world again, and that's not necessarily a bad thing, there's only so much a human heart can take, okay?
I don't want to have to worry about posting things here, please, bestiality is wrong, very wrong and I do not condone it at all, life is hard, let's just deal with it and be wary of our comments. You can be close to an animal, so close, sharing empathy and love on a plane that is beautiful, but there is a line there, always a line that must be respected, to cross that line is a terrible mistake and I believe destroys the trust of an animal. It is evil in my eyes and the eyes of God.

True story
Posted 9 years agoMy and my fiend are buying cigars (Funny story)
Posted 10 years agoSo we are buying cigars at a shop we haven't been to. My buddy parks 300 feet from the shop. It's dark.
We purchase our stogies and head back to his car.
I open the passenger side door and jump right in. There's a burger wrapper on floor just like we left it. I grab the seatbelt and bring it to the buckle when I hear, to my left, a shriek.
A woman is in the driver's seat.
Just then, my buddy opens her door, and she screams!
I jump out of the car, wondering why some chick is in his car.
Turns out it wasn't his car.
It was her car.
We, too, scream. (or yell. We're manly men. We yell, right? No screams here... no... srs)
She says we scared her badly enough for her to soil her pants and we are left apologizing profusely.
His car was identical to hers, and parked next to hers. We saw her car first and thought it was his.
We apologized so hard, and she said it was alright. She left, laughing.
We broke out laughing.
We're still laughing.
Good times.

Posted 10 years agoI've been working out of state where there's no internet. I want to get back to you all.
P. S. It's taken a week for the drywaller to talk to me again after the Craigslist ad.

Happy new year
Posted 10 years agoHappy new year. You guys have shown me such love. I have such a love for you guys I never had before. Thank you for being my friend. :)
So I'm remodeling a mobile home (prank)
Posted 10 years agoThe head drywall maggot backed his butt up to mine and farted when I was engrossed in a caulking procedure. I was mildly irritated (you have to be able to endure such things when you work construction.) until I took pictures of his drywall equipment (valued at around 2,500 dollars). I then called myself on his phone which he leaves aging around, then deleted the call log to my number.
Now I had his number. I posted a Craigslist ad saying a bad employee left his drywall gear at a job site and I wanted fifty bucks for everything. I left his Number as the contact number and his name as the contact name, and all the pictures of his eqhipment.
I know he got at least one call before he left.
I can't wait to hear about how someone put his gear up on Craigslist for fifty bucks. When the drywallers get home tonight I imagine he'll be getting a lot more calls.

Posted 10 years agoHow many sexy animal people can you look at before you just get sick of sexy animal people?
ABC Meme
Posted 10 years agoStolen from
thetigress
A- Age:
36
B- Biggest fear:
Failure, not fulfilling my life's purpose (I guess that's also failure)
C- Cold weather or Warm weather?:
Warm-ish, I can enjoy the cold, too.
D- Drink you last had:
Water
E- Extraterrestrials (Aliens), are they real?
Yes, I believe in aliens, but I do not think they came from a faraway planet, I believe they are angels that have rebelled against God and are cast down to Earth. If you think about it, they witnessed creation, so they know just about all there is to know about the world, and the universe, which explains why they're so smart. I do believe they are universally evil.
F- First thing you do when you wake up:
Use the bathroom and draw. Before that, put all my clothes on. I find that sleeping nude helps me regulate my body temperature better during the day.
G- Ghosts, are they real?:
I think ghosts are real, yes, but I believe they are demons as well, the ones cast into chains of darkness (or thereabouts. The Bible talks about them.) I have personal experience with people with demons, and seeing them cast out of people. I've felt demons leave my body. Most/many people have/are influenced demons. Demons used to be common infesting people in ancient times, the greatest trick they pulled was going unnoticed in society today as they manipulate people. Many Christians have and are influenced by demons, too.
I was tormented by demons for along time. No pastors, no people in the church wanted to help me, or even could, in spite of the fact that the Bible says that people who believe in Jesus will cast out demons. (Mark 16:17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues)
So if you're struggling and want help, note me, I can get you help, or put you in touch with someone who can help you.
You are not alone. They are powerless against the Name of Jesus.
H- How tall are you?:
6 foot 1
I- In love with someone:
No.
J- Jealous of someone (Just answer Yes or No):
No.
K- Killed Someone?:
No. But there's not statue of limitations on murder. You wouldn't want to admit it, unless you want to do your time and make things right.
L- Last time you cried?:
A week ago.
M- Music genre you hate the most:
Most rap. Not all of it. But most of it.
N- Newest acquisition:
Long dual bend needle nose pliers to fish out cable I was pulling, when the fish tape broke and it was 3" from the conduit. XD
O- One Wish:
To live in the new world. (When Jesus comes back.)
P- Pie, which flavor you like the most?:
Cherry.
Q- Question you usually ask:
How's it going?
R- Reason to smile:
My two little babies. (My dogs)
S- Song you like the most:
I can't name just one.

T- Time you wake up:
6:30.
U- Underwear Color:
Varies from camouflage to grey. I have one ridiculous pair that had no wiener slot so I cut one, but it doesn't have the over flap so I have to be careful walking around in my boxers with that pair.
V- VideoGame you like the most:
Probably Arma.
W- Worst Habit:
Over analyzing things and worry, fear. God is taking are of me. The time is coming soon when all anyone is going to have but their relationship with God Himself. (Through Jesus...)
X- X-Rays you've had:
Whole body. Fell 40 feet from a tree when I was a child and broke both my arms, both my legs, fingers, toes, ribs, etc, 23 or 24 bones in total I forget. Also gave me amnesia.
Y- Your favorite food:
Mexican food.

So my property... isn't my property?
Posted 10 years agoI have 5 acres out in a rural stretch of land, with a beautiful view of the mountains out here. It's butted up against BLM land on two sides, and a corner lot.
I really like this land. It's got a great view.
So... I have half a shipping container on it thus far, and chainlink fencing to square off a 3600 sqft portion of it.
Since I'm in construction right now, my stepdad recommended that I go and see if I need a "permit" to build up the container as a shed.
I go in there (County assessor and permitting department) and talk to the lady and she says, unless I have a "home" built there I cannot have any structures on the land.
Wait a minute... who are these people to tell me what I can do on property I own? I ask her what they consider a home, and she brings out a STACK of papers detailing what they consider an adequate dwelling... Each paper lists the cost of the "permits" required, thousands of dollars I have to give to them to "allow" me to build on my own land... That's not even including materials...
She goes on to tell me that some people were "Living in sheds" which "Wasn't safe", well, what business is that to them? I told her I am sure she could go into any number of homes and point out things that are "Not safe". (Maybe in thirty years that's what will happen...?? You can't have your blender less than five and three eights inches from the edge of your counter because a kid could get it, etc)
Respectfully, I asked her who they thought they were, to be able to tell me what I can do on my own land... She said she got that a lot.
I told her I got out of California because they pull this crap there, they make a simple add on to your home an obscenely expensive engineered procedure that costs tens of thousands of dollars in "Permits". All a permit is, is a tax for improving your land or domain... A way for the local government to separate you from your money if you want to have a better life.
My stepdad had a great idea, zone my land as Ag land (Agricultural) which exempts it from engineered structures. I'd have to have some cows and horses there (What I want to do anyway. He even said, why not have wolves there? Now that's not a bad idea.) but apparently that is a work a round.

Is what I am doing wrong?
Posted 10 years agoHi,
So I had an idea a few weeks ago to pick up a pencil and start drawing again. I started drawing skeletal anatomy of anthros, because the end goal is to illustrate some of my novels.
So in my spare time I have been taking pictures that appeal to me, on my cell phone, and drawing them the best that I can on sketch paper with a pencil.
I am not tracing them... I am re drawing them by hand on paper.
Right now they are carbon copies, except for a few differences, for example, in one original pic, the girl's shorts were unbottoned, I buttoned them. I did not draw her stockings, leggings, etc, and I did not draw her with headphones.
But I drew her face and pose the same.
I also linked back to the original artist in the description. I am in NO WAY claiming them as my own, other than I re- drew it on a piece of paper.
Is this wrong?
Because if it is, why aren't people getting permission to draw the Lion King? Drawing a scene from TLK on paper would be illegal...
I just don't get it. My ex, who draws TLK stuff is saying I am some kind of bad person for drawing these characters, it seems a little hypocritical to me.
I've talked to people who say it's free advertising for the original artist... And if I drew some character on my own, and someone else tried to draw it, I would honestly be flattered...
If it's considered immoral, I don't know why. I'm giving the artist credit for it. How many people ask to draw the Mona Lisa... It seems like more of a pride issue than a legal one to me.
I don't know, please, people, weigh in and tell me what you think here.
