FA+
Shop
I'm not dead, but this site might be.
Posted 2 years agoSo, I left this site years ago due to the changes in policy, the lack of tagging culture, and the admins refusal to fix so many glaring flaws.
Now I hear the policies atr getting worse and worse. I might just delete my account since I don't use it at all anymore.
If you want to still follow me, I've been posting exclusively on InkBunny under the name NaughtyThorn (https://inkbunny.net/NaughtyThorn). I've written a bit on AO3 and Fanfiction.net. I keep planning to make my own site to host my non-furry and non-porn stories, but IRL has me pretty drained, so I keep putting it off.

Seeking Sex+ Aphorisms and such
Posted 7 years agoI'm looking for any good Sex Positive aphorisms, sayings, quotes, and other helpful sayings or things to think about. I'm especially looking for any that focus on good sex ed for girls, but any would be greatly appreciated. They don't have to come from anywhere or anything like that, I just want my sex positive educators in my stories to be able to hand out some nice nuggets that would stick in the brain better than facts and figures.
Been back 4 months: Review
Posted 8 years agoSo, I came back to FA 4 months ago, sort of. I came to check if things had improved and... well, I'm not seeing all the bullshit drama I saw before. But I still can't get myself to use it much because the site structure is just so poor. It's almost impossible to actually find anything I'm looking for because tags and other labels here are horrendous and massively inconsistent, there's no way for users to add/suggest tags, there is no blacklisting of any kind, and the folder system, while it's supposed to help people organize things, it ends up getting in the way of finding things far more often. A minor gripe I've had here a long time is that when you favorite something it counts as a complete page reload, which means a second 'back' function and load every time. Minor, but very annoying. And lastly, the writing community on FA is almost non-existent, which is quite disappointing.
I don't know if I'll upload any stories here, I have IB, SF, FanFiction.net, and A3O for that, but I do know I won't be checking here often. Almost anything good here eventually finds its way onto e621 in a much more searchable format anyway.

Friend with Adoptables available
Posted 8 years agoIf you are into adoptables, a nice artist friend of mine has several still available. Check them out here:https://www.furaffinity.net/view/22992842/
Let's see if things have improved here.
Posted 8 years agoI'm gonna check up on FA again. I keep hearing many things are better, so I'll try coming back for a while.
I'm Out
Posted 9 years agoAbout 2 Years ago I declared that I was mostly moving to SoFurry, but I was still doing some stuff here every once in awhile. But now... with the poor handling of the security problems this aging infrastructure and toxic community... I'm just done with this shit site.
I'll keep my account up here for a while at least, I'll still read one webcomic here I like. But that's it. If you want to contact me or see any of my newer writing then follow me over at SoFurry and Inkbunny (especially for the stuff I can't put on SoFurry, which is a fair bit of my latest work).
Why now? Well, it wasn't the security breach at first. The number of people that came from FA over to FN and fraudulently shut down the only reason I wanted to use FN really highlighted the toxicity here. Then, when I came back to try updating things on my various FA accounts... ugh, this terribly implemented security features now make it unbearable. My other accounts here will now languish, untouched because I don't want to go through this shit for managing such minor things. Basically, FA has raised the bar of difficulty for using their site too high. It's just not worth it.
As to FN, I honestly don't see their business model working out the way they say it will, so while I have an account there, that's just because they won't let me delete it yet.
You can follow me at SoFurry, Inkbunny, Xamesh, Thorn's Rants, Tinker N Tanker Arc, DeviantArt, and my two main characters on F-List Thorny'Anto and Brier Rakzdyn

Moved to SoFurry
Posted 11 years agoSeveral months ago I moved to SoFurry. While I still occasionally look at and fave things on FA don't expect any new uploads here. Might put a couple on my character account every once in a while, especially if it relates to others connected to my character who are still here, but even when it comes to characters SoFurry has FA beat hands down. Over there I don't have to have separate accounts and switch between them all the time. Same thing with groups. I won't be managing any of my FA groups anymore. Might even delete some of them. SoFurry is so much easier for working with groups.
I'll not be removing anything already up on this account or my character account, but... I also won't be adding anything.
If you want to see what I've been working on since leaving I've been putting them up on SoFurry, that's where all of my stuff will be uploaded, even if I do put some of it on Weasyl, InkBunny, or more likely on DeviantArt, you should always find everything on my SoFurry.

:TDress to be raped?
Posted 12 years agoI know many here like myself enjoy stories and images of rape fantasies, and many here do not. Regardless of our views of such fantasies real rape is a very serious issue that happens all the time to men, women, girls, and boys of all genders and relationship statuses.
First off, dressing sexy is not "asking to be raped."
Secondly, it's nice to see that someone out there has been working on clothing that can be worn that is still sexy and actually does prevent rape.
But they can't do it alone. They need support to get this project into production. Here's a little blurb about this awesome product that I definitely want to see hit the market (I know, coming from such an anti-capitalist that sounds weird, but this deserves recommendation).
Anti-rape wear. Its almost impervious to knife attacks and tearing/stretching.
The waist and thigh extremities of the garment are cut and tear resistant (the guy in the video cant cut them with industrial scissors) and they cannot be moved more than a few centimetres when locked into place, the forward area in front of the genitals is also reinforced.
Please, for the love of god, even if you cant donate, just spread this idea wherever you can, they need $50,000 to be able to manufacture it and they currently have just over $6,000 with 20 days left.
(Update: $39.5k with 16 days left. Let's get this project funded and help protect loved ones/ourselves.)
Go to igg.me/at/AR-Wear to donate and/or view their full info.
Now, speaking as someone with male friends who have been raped I also hope that the success of this project for women will also lead to similar clothing options for the male body.

Feelings, why you so hard?
Posted 12 years agoSo, I'm generally feeling rather depressed in that apathetic way. Not the sad depressed, I'm actually very happy, life is rather good. Yet, I'm still depressed and can't get myself to do any of the things I love. Even talking with loved ones feels so draining, and I don't know why.
Instead of doing things I like I've found myself doing things I don't like, or things I barely enjoy, and staying up WAY too late which means not only am I depressed, but I'm driving myself further into sleep deprivation, which makes me less functional at school, making my already suffering classes suffer more, which leads to more depression.
Mom's manic period, while not reaching the intensity of that trip to AZ, is still generally growing more and more disruptive and uncommunicative. The timing is either very poor or related to my depression, but either way it makes trying to work with her like this very difficult.
I'm very glad I have my loved ones here to support me. If any of you are reading this I'm sorry I've been so unresponsive lately. I love you all so much.

I'm back from my trip. (scariest 3 days in many years)
Posted 12 years agoI know not many knew I was even leaving, and many probably didn't even notice I was gone. But I went down to Arizona to help drive because my mom wanted to see one of my cousins getting married. If I recall, I believe the bride was from another family she had done business with back in her MLM (Multi Level Marketing, or Network Marketing, it was Amway/Quickstar) days. She's also taking my cousin Elly and her fiance Chad to have another visit with her mom Kelly and taking the dogs Aliyah and Stephaniea so she can see them too.
I really should have said no, it's an expensive trip taking money from what I need to be able to eat come the end of the semester and I've got school work, classes, an invitation from some local furs to go to ComiCon and get William Shattner's signature, need to edit my Let's Plays so I can upload them to Youtube, and all that to consider, but one of the reasons I live at my parents is to help my mom, so I said yes. I'm typically a rather Zen kitty and go with the flow.
Perhaps I should also mention that despite wanting to travel I have never traveled well. Sleep in a van isn't very refreshing fro most people, I think that goes doubly for me, my ears don't take the elevation changes very well due to surgery scars (and central Utah to Phoenix Arizona is a lot of extreme ups and downs), while driving long distances my eyes water and itch, my hands and arms go numb. Getting glasses helped considerably with my driving, but it's still problematic.
My mom calls me and drives all around my school several times about an hour and a half before my class is scheduled to get out so that we can take off immediately.
At the first gas station we discover that mom forgot her credit card... so I'm paying everything for now and she's going to reimburse me.
My cell phones data plan runs out. That's fine, it just drops from 4G to 3G, oh, wait, 3G coverage isn't as good. And I quickly blow through the 10MB Roaming Data that no one ever told me about, so I can now only talk to my loved ones on skype while near a city, maybe.
Heading down the twisty windy part of the road we often refer to as the Canyon Wall she was driving down the center of the road as I freaked out next to her with the double yellow lines passing under me. She did this so she could make the sharp corners softer and claimed that she was only doing it when she could see far enough down the road that she knew there wasn't any traffic coming. She had seen Kelly do this before and wanted to try it. Meanwhile, all of her passengers were terrified (including the extreme driver Chad).
We have a nice little visit with her best friend in Page at the Rose Walk Inn, had some of their AMAZING oatmeal pancakes and butter syrup. Ohh, that stuff is good. I love eating there whenever we travel to AZ. Their pancakes are literally world famous now being served in other countries, and they have the recipe available in tons of languages. Mom got one written in Tagalog (one of the Philippine languages) since she served and LDS mission there (though, her Tagalog is too limited to read it, it's still a fun little thing to have).
We keep switching drivers and make it into Phoenix where it is muggy and hot. Not the normal dry heat cause it is the Monsoon Season.
We made it to the place where Kelly was staying (after some difficulty with mom insisting on taking different routs than the GPS told us). They were rather furious that we had brought the dogs when they had expressly told us not to and for good reasons (their own dogs being territorial and anxious and Arizona's laws putting our vehicle at risk if we left the dogs in the van). Physically, Kelly is getting better, she's lost a lot of weight since I last saw her and the doctors said her heart and other vital organs are quite strong. However her dementia makes it so she probably won't even remember our visit and for a moment she mistook me for my uncle (her husband died about 13 years ago). While there I did get to see one of my ... distant cousins(?) Justin. He's such a cutey and was crawling all over me and playing with me as I watched part of iRobot. He was so sad to see the big kitty leave. Meow.
Took off for the wedding and again mom insisted she knew the roads and kept saying the GPS was trying to take us around in circles. As the navigator it was very frustrating that she wouldn't listen and kept getting us lost all over the place and took dangerous turns that often threw us all around inside the van. 15 minutes from the church with half an hour to go before it starts she decides we need to get something to eat at a couple different places to satisfy everyone in the van which has us arriving at the church 5 minutes late, still needing to get dressed.
Turns out the wedding was three hours earlier. Mom misread the invitation so all we got to go to was the reception where I mostly sat around looking at people trying to decide if I had ever met them before. The one thing I was kind of looking forward to on the trip... guugh. Mom was upset too, not that you would ever know it.
After the wedding we stayed at the house of the couple that got my parents together. That was slightly fun, they had a cool house and I was able to get on skype and chat with some loved ones a little bit. We set out our plan for the next day and went to sleep on their many couches. I slept decently until the early morning, a few hours before we had planned to wake up because mom decided to chuck the old plan and take us to visit a few Temples instead. Again as navigator she drove me up the walls with her happy go lucky "I know this city" attitude, constantly changing around where we were going, declaring the GPS was messing up when it wasn't and.... gaaaaaaahhhhhh. Furthermore, these Temples, while they mean a lot of happy things to her they mean a lot of terrible things to me. They symbolize the lie I once worshiped. They symbolize the absolute unreason my mom founds her life on. They symbolize the guilt and destruction and pain of years of hating myself for being something that her church believes is abomination, the years of homophobia and the years wasted fighting against science and reason and trying to prove that church true.
By this time I've basically given up.
Before leaving the Phoenix area we made another stop at Elly's mother's caretaker's place, saw Justin for a bit and then we took off for another of her uncles. Elly's dad died shortly after my family moved to Utah and for some of these years she has lived with us. She views my dad "Uncle Larry" and her "Uncle Kenny" as father figures and the only ones who have the right to pass judgement on her fiance, so we payed him a visit so he could do so. He asked Chad a ton of questions and myself as well since we had never met. He became too confused by me, laughing, he gave up trying to understand me and went back to grilling Chad. It was clear he wished Chad was an atheist, but was glad that Chad could at least speak intelligently about his beliefs. It was also clear that he approved of Chad for Elly and he made it clear that he expected each of them to treat the other like royalty at all times. "If he doesn't think you are treating him like a king, and if she doesn't feel you are treating her like a queen, then you aren't, and you need to. Fix it or get out. Don't make the other pick up your pieces when you hang around too long and leave a mess of their emotions." I really liked Kenneth. I'd like to talk with him more in the future.
After leaving the Phoenix area we took a bathroom break at a casino where she decided to buy a ring (she's planning to renew her wedding vows with dad in December). I tried my hand at a 'Penny slot' while there. As I suspected the name is quite misleading. Minimum bid is in fact 40 pennies. First go I won 50 (meaning I'd made 10 cents). Across the next two bids I lost more and more until I ended up with only 32 cents left. Cashed that out as I started realizing a few more of the ways Casino's trick people out of their money. Like I always say, any money you gamble with you need to consider
I still don't understand why, but we went to the Grand Canyon National Park for sunset (missed it). The place Chad wanted to go isn't even in the park, but we didn't know that. Cell phones constantly going on the fritz and lots of miss-communication caused there to be only one really enjoyable thing about the trip and that was listening to the hilarious shuttle bus driver with his tails of the parks history, the people who died there, the myths that sprung up around the canyon and its history, and his canyon songs.
To head home (finally) we decided to go out the East Entrance, but our GPS isn't getting any signal, its dark, and Chad is driving. With how stressed I already am from this trip it doesn't take much for his driving to send me into panic attacks. He didn't understand that I was trying to ask him to slow down so he kept going triggering more and worse attacks. Almost fainting I finally manage to say it in direct unambiguous words loud enough for him to hear and he does. For the next few hours I slowly recover as he tries to keep the van from sliding and making it worse.
During this recovery we discuss an interesting dream that Chad had. See, while I was driving and he was sleeping I was listening to Furcast. As is not uncommon, the conversation turned to sexuality. This particular time there was much talk of dicks, penises, asses, cocks, willies, fucking, who's fucking business it is who you fuck, and other similar things from one of the emails. Chad found himself cuddling his fiance as he dreamed of driving a herd of dicks across the plains. Waking up confused, being the VASTLY STRAIGHT MAN that he is he understood the moment he heard what I was listening to. So in our discussion Elly was asking if the dicks were walking upright on their balls, or... yeah, it was a hilarious discussion indeed. I wish we had recorded that.
Before we knew it we came to Cameron Trading Post, I thought we'd have had to go through a checkpoint to get out of the park, but we never saw one. For some reason mom thought we were going to be exiting the canyon through the West Entrance, which I had already told her didn't exist. She was planning her rout for us to go from the West end of the canyon the entire time and was very surprised to come out at Cameron. Had an expensive dinner that we shouldn't have before continuing on North.
Things went relatively smoothly until Elly directed mom through a town we filled up in. Don't know what town it was, I fell asleep. When I woke up we were on the wrong road and had been for about 45 minutes heading East toward Denver instead of North toward home. If we turned around right then we might have been able to get home only a little late. But mom woudln't listen. She was insisting that if we just kept going we could come DOWN to Salt Lake and continue down to Orem where we live. I told her and told her that we weren't North of Salt Lake but she wouldn't listen. I was getting very scared. The GPS wasn't getting any signal, the map it would show me was extremely blury and I couldn't get any town names or anything to convince her we were headed entirely the wrong way. She just kept talking about continuing on this road getting her to places that would be on the other side of the state. After another hour or so I finally got a GPS signal and convinced her to at least take a rout on some County Roads to go up through Price to get home.
By this time part of me figured I wasn't going to be making it to my biology class, another part of me wasn't sure I'd be seeing another sunrise.
Started heading north, she was asking over and over how this was getting us home and wanting to turn back around. When we needed to turn she would overshoot the turns every time not slowing down in time for them. For about the seventh time this trip she asked us if she was a horrible person.
We went through a few small towns, one of them she said was Price because she recognized a building in it that dad had played in. I saw that it wasn't Price, Price is much larger and was still many miles ahead.
Dad called to see where we were since we'd planned to be home an hour ago by this time. We told him we'd just passed Price and the GPS said we had an two and a half hours to go. Mom insisted we would be home in about 48 minutes.
Half an hour later she started saying that we had somehow turned around because the signs were saying we were heading to Price, which she 'knew' we had already been through. I told her we hadn't, that it was still ahead, but she suddenly flipped the van around saying we had to go back. I started having another panic attack and told her over and over we hadn't been through Price yet, I even yelled at her (for the first time in 16 years) saying, "I don't care if you remember that building, that wasn't Price! It was Farron!" She yelled back, "I KNOW WHERE I'VE FUCKING BEEN AND THAT WAS PRICE!"
This all woke up Elly and we sat there for quite a while, eventually Elly said we couldn't just sit here all day, we needed to get home. I needed to get to school and Chad needed to get to work.
"You say I don't know where I'm going, damn it I know. I know. That was Price. I'll show you, that was Price damn it." Mom decided she had to prove to us that it was Price we had been through and started speeding down the road back south as the GPS kept recalculating our route to get us back on the road home. Knowing this was just frustrating my mom more and more I turned it off rather than listen to its constant, "In 45 feet, turn left, Turn Left." "In 50 feet turn right. Turn right." "Slight right, then turn right. Turn right."
I called dad to let him know what mom was doing, he was confused and talked with her. Tried to calm her down. She was asking about things nearby and a previous trip when dad had played at the building in Price. He seemed very confused by what she was asking.
We got to the building she remembered which turned out to be the Castle Dale Court House. So it wasn't Ferron, both towns are so small the name didn't show up on the GPS. Just at the edge of Castle Dale I helped get my crying mother into the passenger seat and took over driving myself. I'd rather Chad have driven, but he was sleeping and I didn't want to wake him with what I knew he had already dealt with earlier. I think I also needed to feel in control for a while.
I drove for a couple hours, driving back over what mom had backtracked us, went through the real Price, passed the real Helper. In my frustration I kept driving as I was crying, not ready to give up this limited control I had again on my life. Every time mom asked if she could drive again I just thought of all the times she had driven over the lines into the other direction of traffic. She had said it was something she was doing 'safely' and 'only once' but she had kept doing it later in the trip even disregarding her previous 'safety' protocols. I tried to drive long enough to get us out of the mountain roads entirely, but I was unable to go that long. With Elly and Chad still too sleepy to drive I had no choice but to let mom drive again.
Restlessly I slept, waking up again when she was again insisting she knew the way and got us lost in Spanish Fork. I had already given up any hope of getting to class. Had I gone I would be far too tired for either of my classes to do any good. We were in the cities now so I helped her get back on the right roads and then fell asleep again.
Finally home at a little after 10 (four hours after when I had requested we be home so I could get the restful nap I would need before my 11AM class, 3 hours after mom kept saying we would be home) I got to crawl into my bed crying. But I couldn't sleep. I laid there for a while and finally came online to my loved ones for comfort. That helped and I calmed down enough to start writing this out so I couldn't have to re-explain each detail to everyone and then decided it would be my detailed record of events. I'm thinking I will also give a copy of this to my therapist in the morning. I wanted to finish it all in one go, but I was crying so much and got too tired. Laid down just to rest a moment before describing the yelling bit and found myself waking up several hours later, my lovies all worried about where I had gone. I did some other things and procrastinated writing all of this last part. My mates are all either asleep or at work, so, I've finally done it.
Still crying, but feeling a lot better now that I've got it all out here. Now I'm able to focus more on other concerns like the raging winds blowing about in my wife's city, mates of mine that don't get along with others, the micro-burst storm that flooded my street and my sister's basement while I was away, and a misregistered class that is now past the registration change deadline.
Sorry for the long rant. I've missed so many of you.
I really should have said no, it's an expensive trip taking money from what I need to be able to eat come the end of the semester and I've got school work, classes, an invitation from some local furs to go to ComiCon and get William Shattner's signature, need to edit my Let's Plays so I can upload them to Youtube, and all that to consider, but one of the reasons I live at my parents is to help my mom, so I said yes. I'm typically a rather Zen kitty and go with the flow.
Perhaps I should also mention that despite wanting to travel I have never traveled well. Sleep in a van isn't very refreshing fro most people, I think that goes doubly for me, my ears don't take the elevation changes very well due to surgery scars (and central Utah to Phoenix Arizona is a lot of extreme ups and downs), while driving long distances my eyes water and itch, my hands and arms go numb. Getting glasses helped considerably with my driving, but it's still problematic.
My mom calls me and drives all around my school several times about an hour and a half before my class is scheduled to get out so that we can take off immediately.
At the first gas station we discover that mom forgot her credit card... so I'm paying everything for now and she's going to reimburse me.
My cell phones data plan runs out. That's fine, it just drops from 4G to 3G, oh, wait, 3G coverage isn't as good. And I quickly blow through the 10MB Roaming Data that no one ever told me about, so I can now only talk to my loved ones on skype while near a city, maybe.
Heading down the twisty windy part of the road we often refer to as the Canyon Wall she was driving down the center of the road as I freaked out next to her with the double yellow lines passing under me. She did this so she could make the sharp corners softer and claimed that she was only doing it when she could see far enough down the road that she knew there wasn't any traffic coming. She had seen Kelly do this before and wanted to try it. Meanwhile, all of her passengers were terrified (including the extreme driver Chad).
We have a nice little visit with her best friend in Page at the Rose Walk Inn, had some of their AMAZING oatmeal pancakes and butter syrup. Ohh, that stuff is good. I love eating there whenever we travel to AZ. Their pancakes are literally world famous now being served in other countries, and they have the recipe available in tons of languages. Mom got one written in Tagalog (one of the Philippine languages) since she served and LDS mission there (though, her Tagalog is too limited to read it, it's still a fun little thing to have).
We keep switching drivers and make it into Phoenix where it is muggy and hot. Not the normal dry heat cause it is the Monsoon Season.
We made it to the place where Kelly was staying (after some difficulty with mom insisting on taking different routs than the GPS told us). They were rather furious that we had brought the dogs when they had expressly told us not to and for good reasons (their own dogs being territorial and anxious and Arizona's laws putting our vehicle at risk if we left the dogs in the van). Physically, Kelly is getting better, she's lost a lot of weight since I last saw her and the doctors said her heart and other vital organs are quite strong. However her dementia makes it so she probably won't even remember our visit and for a moment she mistook me for my uncle (her husband died about 13 years ago). While there I did get to see one of my ... distant cousins(?) Justin. He's such a cutey and was crawling all over me and playing with me as I watched part of iRobot. He was so sad to see the big kitty leave. Meow.
Took off for the wedding and again mom insisted she knew the roads and kept saying the GPS was trying to take us around in circles. As the navigator it was very frustrating that she wouldn't listen and kept getting us lost all over the place and took dangerous turns that often threw us all around inside the van. 15 minutes from the church with half an hour to go before it starts she decides we need to get something to eat at a couple different places to satisfy everyone in the van which has us arriving at the church 5 minutes late, still needing to get dressed.
Turns out the wedding was three hours earlier. Mom misread the invitation so all we got to go to was the reception where I mostly sat around looking at people trying to decide if I had ever met them before. The one thing I was kind of looking forward to on the trip... guugh. Mom was upset too, not that you would ever know it.

Forms of Thornbrier
Posted 12 years agoMost who know me will know me as a four armed four breasted chakat with some cybernetic implants. Some also know me in other forms. Here's a few of them.
Saisona: Basically my chakat form with Cubi attributes such as head wings, wings on each of my backs that can turn into other things, but also two tails, two cocks, upper hands are more monstrous, and there is often an orange tint that runs across my lavender-white fur.
Nagamew: Upper body is identical to my chakat form, but the lower body is instead a long (roughly 60 feet) snake-like body that has soft lavender-white and lavender black fuzz, multiple vaginas and hemipenes along its length. Oh, and in this form my astral abilities are swapped for telepathy.
Liquid: Any of my forms could have the ability to turn into a liquid, gel, or gaseous form of themselves. Often tastes of vanilla bean with varying hits of strawberry, peppermint, and licorice.
Anthro: Upper body of chakat form, lower body of an anthro. Not surprising. Typically does not have Empathic or Astral abilities.
Fantasy: Any of these, but instead of cybernetics and training in teleportation/warpfields/cloning/portal technology, I am trained in weapons and magic and mechanical tinkering. This is the version I try to shoot for when playing games like D&D.
Temporal Clones/Alternates: I exist in many timelines, sometimes me from other timelines will come together for various reasons. They are usually potential futures of me, but not always. Sometimes other forms of me. We do have a couple rules in place for these encounters. A) It is always about the 'past' or the one who's universe/time we are in. B) No giving me technology I haven't developed yet. C) Don't reveal too much about the future. D) No impregnating my past self. Other rules may be developed as time goes by.

Dear Keda, (a meme)
Posted 12 years agoIn response to: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4854917/
Dear Keda,
I don't really know how to tell you this, but I'm joining the Convent. I think I realized it when your dwarf bit me in your closet and I saw you sit on my boyfriend. I'm sure you're open enough to understand that I'm allergic to your earlobes. I'm returning your pictures from Vegas, your car, and our matching snoopy underwear but keeping your mom as a memory. You should also know that I told in my confession today about the moose poaching and you ruined my attempts at another world war.
Best of luck on the sex change,
~ Thornbrier

So many yiffy.tk rants.
Posted 12 years agoI've been hearing a lot about this long standing site that I have never heard of before. All this stuff about it being a haven for art theft, and how terrible the admins are and such. So I headed over to this place to see what was up.
The site itself is fine. The admins are being attacked everywhere out of nowhere over this and are trying to handle it well, but with all the hate they are getting its not surprising some of them are starting to shut people out.
I've listened to the demands the FA artists are asking of them and its completely unreasonable for any site to achieve. No site in the world does what these artists are asking this little site to do.
For the moment they have disabled all 'character images' and are trying to track down the ones they need to remove, but that is thousands of profiles with multiple images each that these few people are suddenly having to trudge through and they have no real way of knowing who is and who is not using the images 'rightfully.'
A silver lining I guess is that I now have a new place use my characters.

Death strikes closer to home than expected.
Posted 12 years agoSo, I just barely realized which uncle it was who died. My uncle Verlon. My mom has so many brother's and sisters (and their husbands) that I didn't really know who's funeral it was she was going for. But...
Verlon Niel, was an amazing Officer who suffered PTSD following his return from Vietnam. He was honorable, inteligent, and did many wonderful things during his service. One my far too few visits with him he told me his war stories, how he was field promoted twice (second time by a 4 star general) and was able to use the protection it offered to stand up to superiors who were abusing their authority. He told me of the young girl who saved his life several times, how he wrote to his wife and eventually decided to adopt her, only to return to her village and find she had been murdered for the aid she had given him. We argued about politics, and we watched the news together and argued some more, and he was my favorite uncle.
It was because of Uncle Verlon that I made the dominant male figure in my fursona's life hir Uncle Ashworth. Now that he is dead, ... I think Uncle Ashworth is dead to.

Death in the Family & Birthday Notice
Posted 12 years agoOne of my uncles died on the 20th. My mom left today (day after her birthday) to spend time with her family before they bury him. This isn't the first time this has happened as I have grown up, family deaths in the midst of joyous occasions.
I've been raised very distant from my extended family and have never felt all that close to them. Its typically several months before I find myself sad about it. Today I find myself distraught not at his death, but at not being able to share in my mother's grief.
This is also a strange time for me as mine and my mother's birthdays are so close together. I am now turning 30 in only eight more days, and while I have long been against elaborate birthday celebrations the idea that she might not be back in time for my birthday is... annoying(?).
I don't know.

Felines wanting free art?
Posted 12 years agoWell, 
AceTheSwagasaur is trying to better their skills at felines. They have asked for simple characters, but decided my character description wasn't too hard to try, so lets see how this goes. http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4389564/

Posted 12 years agoOkay, what I'm about to present is something that is meant to achieve cult status. I am creating a film with Wrath 
that could use the help of furries, fursuiters, visual effect artists, cameramen, whoever. As I said, the purpose of the film is to present itself as one that is attempting cult status, so it is not going to be anything tame. It has a purpose however, which will unfold throughout events in the movie.
If you would like to help us, please, please comment. We can really use your help on this! If you would like to join in, we'll send you a synopsis discussing it further. But without further ado, I present to you a teaser for our furry cult film piece, Dust Thou Forsake Me. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10001925/

Recording of AzaleaRose's Birthing
Posted 12 years agoFor those to whom such things matter, I participated in a wonderful event of helping a few new chakats into the world. I took the log from the RP and wrote it up from my character's perspective as a story. I'm not uploading it here as a story submission because it's not entirely intended to be general public finding (and I wrote it with FA note/journal coding in mind), but I have been given permission to submit it as a journal entry to my character profile.
I think this story also gives a good insight into how Chakat ThornBrier sees the world with hir implant.

Vore Prepose Auction/slot buy.
Posted 12 years agoOk, so 
Muffin_Angel is doing a prepose Vore picture and is auctioning off the spot of the predator. The prey slots are all purchased for $8, first come first serve. I have started the predator bidding at $15, and have purchased a prey slot. Come on in and outbid me. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9932409/
If I win I'm planning on having the predator be my little mouse girl, Kitty. I was going to have it be my new character, Fantine, but as a taur ey would fit into the pose very well.
