Would You Buy My Work?
Posted 12 years agoI'm curious. I have over 150 watchers, which is ridiculous and I am incredibly grateful. Given that number I wonder if I even have an audience built up that would be willing to pay for commissions.
If I were to come up with some sort of price system for my writing (because everyone knows my art isn't worthy of a commission), would anyone be willing to pay for a written commission or perhaps pay x amount of money to see their character written into a piece of writing with a given theme such as fat, inflation, TF, etc.?
I'm a broke college kid trying to level out a form of short-term income while I locate a job, and I figured that I could see if anyone would respond to that so I know how fruitful it might be. I'd be down to write anything a commissioner had to offer. Thank you in advance for your commentary!

Girls Who Like Fat Guys....
Posted 13 years agoAre like unicorns. Honestly, I swear. For whatever reason, you can find lots of guys who dig big girls or big guys with relative ease, but locating women who are actually sexually attracted to big guys and enjoy the feeding or gaining aspect...you may as well be searching for giant squid - you know they're out there, there's evidence to back it up, and you've read about the ones that have been found or caught on film, but in this case, meeting someone in my real life like that, who is also actually compatible with me personality-wise, seems like a far-flung pipe dream.
Just a mini-rant. Sorry guys! I promise I'll try to churn something out for you all eventually! I'm really busy recently, but I'll try my hardest.

BlahBlah Ponies Blah
Posted 14 years agoI like the ponies. I like the bronies. I will even count myself as a brony. I watch the show. I ENJOY the show. And I will give each and every one of you a brohoof.
The people who are spouting out annoyance or potentially even hatred about this not only miss the entire point of the existence of the bronies as an ironic but also harmless and peaceful entity, but also miss the entire point of the banner. The banner reads "Denial is Magic" as an explicit message to the people who keep trying to subjugate the people who do art, stories, and more involving the MLP fandom into a realm that does not fall into what they decided arbitrarily defines a furry. That's ludicrous. The entire point is that, like it or not, MLP has become not only a meme, but also a staple of many, many internet communities, and that includes, and in fact almost especially applies, to the furry community, given the subject matter at hand.
And if you don't like it personally, you don't have to see it. AdBlock. If you supported the fat bunny week banner but not this, shut your hypocritical face. And if you have an issue with it being "shoved down your throat" as it were, tell me, how the hell is anyone forcing you to participate? Come back in a week, then. If just having the banner there for 7 days will force you to go into such an ALL CAPS RAGE at the incomprehensible notion that you should actually recognize the fact that a particularly large chunk of this website has a community that does in fact enjoy something that you personally do not, then why are you even on the internet? Go back out on your porch an mumble under your breath about how much better it was in the good 'ol days between bouts of screaming at kids to get off your damn lawn. Thanks, and GTFO.
In other news, I apologize for a large lack of submission to all of my watchers. General summer work and laziness and school-time business combine to make one hell of a stall in content and I apologize. I will try to motivate myself to get something of quality out to you, but I can't make any promises when that will be. In the meantime, I suggest looking through my watchlist, and if there are any you aren't already subbed to, do so. They're all quite awesome

Guys, The Rapture Like Happened
Posted 14 years agoI'm serious. Though turns out it wasn't the Christians getting raptured. It was the vegans.
Turns out being vegan just makes you better than everyone else.
Oh and if you're vegan and you weren't raptured, then you were never a true vegan, anyway.

Hm...turn offs. Well, Everyone likes to say things emotionally that turn them off, so I'll change it up. two of mine are going to be personality turn-offs, and the other two will be aesthetic turn-offs. Because frankly, noone is above being turned off by something aesthetically.
Personality turn-offs:
Ignorance and Entitlement
Aesthetic turn offs:
Really bad acne and unibrows. I'm sorry. They just aren't appealing.

Day Ten: One confession
Intelligence: I can't stand stupid people. This isn't about doing dumb things every once in awhile, but more about just not being smart, or worse, ignorant. Brainless bimbos need not apply.
Romance: I adore being a romantic. I love someone who can enjoy a moment like looking at a sunset, or cuddling under a blanket, or enjoying a nice picnic.
Rationality: Someone who can be rational about a situation and look at it without letting their full set of emotions overwhelm them is actually something I value so much in a person. It leads to overthinking, but I'd rather someone overthink then bring it down then have them rashly not think at all.
Cuddles: OMG CUDDLES. I love cuddling, hugging, snuggling, and all that it comes with. Be a hugger and you'll have me wrapped up in a bow with a bow.
Passion: Apathy is my least favorite thing ever. If you don't care, you shuld, and if you care, it should matter to you. I can't stand people who just shurg their shoulders and go "whatever" at what should be important things.
Food! (and fat love): I adore food. I analyze food. I live to eat. I need someone who can discuss food with me. OMG I love food. Bonus points if you can make it too! This ties directly into the awesomeness of people who liek teh pudge. I wish I knew more people, girls and guys, who were into my chub as much as I am.
Being open: Noone is perfect. This is just a point of personality that I like in people. If you can be open about yourself, your faults, and your problems, it means you're for real, and a real person, not some fake trying to be something you're not.
Musical: I'm musical. I've always been musical. Someone who wants to be musical with me, together, is someone who has my heart forever, as a friend, or as a romantic situation. I adore people who can do music and do music well, whether it's singing or instruments, though being a singer I have a soft spot for 'em.
If you fit this description and want to be friends, or maybe more, *wink wink nudge nudge* message me. Though sorry, fellas, I'm not into dudes like that. =P

Ahem...(rant rant rant)
Posted 15 years agoJust because I care about the fact that what I am saying is true and will disagree when you tell me it is false, then proceed to tell you why, it does not mean that I am dogmatic.
I don't necessarily care what religion you are, but when I tell you what I believe (or more aptly, what I don't believe) and what that label is called, explain it, and then provide reference to show that I'm not pulling it out of my ass, it does not prove that my lack of belief is a dogma. Nor does my zeal to demonstrate that what I am saying is true mean I'm a follower. It juat means I care about truth.
There is a common misconception about the terms atheist and agnostic. Commonly people think agnostic is a sort of half-way point where someone says "I don't know if God exists or not" while Atheists make the claim "God does not exist"
THIS IS NOT TRUE
Agnostic is a description of knowledge. for example, many people are agnostic to aliens, in that they don't know for sure if they exist or not. It is not specific to the belief in a god. To do this you need a label, like theist or atheist. (the opposite to agnostic would be gnostic, or saying you know for sure 100%)
Atheist simply means you do not believe in a God. THIS IS NOT saying I believe god doesn't exist or that I believe there are no gods. It is a lack of belief. That is all. The difference is in the way it is stated. If I say no gods exist, I would need to provide proof that that claim is valid, and I can't because I'd have to know everything. However, I don't have to know everything to not believe Gods exist. It's up to the people claiming they do to provide evidence for the claim, (which, BTW, would make me change my stance on the subject).
Atheism is a belief in the same way bald is a hair color, or not smoking is a habit, or not collecting stamps is a hobby.
That is why I am, by any reasonable definition, an agnostic atheist. Noone could possibly know absolutely, but I have no good reason to believe there is.
I value truth, but when I tried to make this point in a discussion, I was informed that the fact that I was so ambivalent about demonstrating what is true only proved that atheism is just as much a dogma as any religion. This is simply stupid, nonsensical, and untrue.
I apologize for the giant rant, but sometimes you need to get stuff off your chest, and hey, maybe someone learned something from this...who knows?
I don't necessarily care what religion you are, but when I tell you what I believe (or more aptly, what I don't believe) and what that label is called, explain it, and then provide reference to show that I'm not pulling it out of my ass, it does not prove that my lack of belief is a dogma. Nor does my zeal to demonstrate that what I am saying is true mean I'm a follower. It juat means I care about truth.
There is a common misconception about the terms atheist and agnostic. Commonly people think agnostic is a sort of half-way point where someone says "I don't know if God exists or not" while Atheists make the claim "God does not exist"
THIS IS NOT TRUE
Agnostic is a description of knowledge. for example, many people are agnostic to aliens, in that they don't know for sure if they exist or not. It is not specific to the belief in a god. To do this you need a label, like theist or atheist. (the opposite to agnostic would be gnostic, or saying you know for sure 100%)
Atheist simply means you do not believe in a God. THIS IS NOT saying I believe god doesn't exist or that I believe there are no gods. It is a lack of belief. That is all. The difference is in the way it is stated. If I say no gods exist, I would need to provide proof that that claim is valid, and I can't because I'd have to know everything. However, I don't have to know everything to not believe Gods exist. It's up to the people claiming they do to provide evidence for the claim, (which, BTW, would make me change my stance on the subject).
Atheism is a belief in the same way bald is a hair color, or not smoking is a habit, or not collecting stamps is a hobby.

Wait, what!?
Posted 15 years agoI just realized that I've reached an amazing landmark!
I actually have 102 watchers right now! In case your math is rusty, that's 2 more than 100 and 92 more than I could ever have even considered having before. X3
So THANK YOU x 102 to each and every one of you, and I'll try to actually kick myself into actually doing something to make myself worthy of all of the watches!
