'appy 'alloween!
Posted 6 months agoSeems like things have finally started simmering back to normal, which is much appreciated!
Ol'Squeaks will lurk in his black cloak an animal mask waitin' fer the younglings to drop by and then leap out and surprise them...with candy!
Provided he doesn' eat it all, but it's cheap this time of year anyhow ^^;
The Capn' still sails, his family is reaching equilibrium an his life is sort of drifty but nothing to complain about.
Cheers to all of ye, have a fun night, an hope all be well with ye and yers too :)

Summer > Capn' Squeaks
Posted a year agoOl'Squeaks DID feel energized fer a bit there but boy the heat hit an now he's a big furry pile of sleepy.
Sorry fer the delays. The Capn' cannot concentrate even with the fan whirring (ESPECIALLY with the fan whirring) and when the temp climbs he gets the urge to stretch out on a couch and sleep with his limbs dangling down to brush the linoleum.
But he's still sailin' about! It's jus takin' some time to get back into the swing and adjust.
Apologies!

15.ai Alternatives?
Posted a year agoCheers to ye folks!
Ol'Squeaks would love to do some more audio stuff as well as the occasional visual dealy, but 15.ai is a legislative nightmare apparently. The website is down an every other site that used to have text to speech with any decent quality seems to be a subscription service.
He could jus do sound effects, but there's a lot of furs out there who do that now (an he's subbed to quite a few of ye talented folks!)
He occasionally finds some decent sound bites from video games but those are very particular oftentimes: not easy to weave into a yarn.
Regardless, hope all be well with ye! Family drama is coolin' to a dull roar around here finally which is quite nice an when nothin' is happenin'. nothin' is going wrong so he's thankful fer small favors :)

But Ol'Squeaks is back in shipshape form!

Greetings Fellow Citizens!
Posted a year agoHow are you on this fine morning? I am quite well, if a little disoriented. It's probably the uncharacteristic heat of this September afternoon.
Apart from my rather odd feelings which seem to be affecting my otherwise perfect diction, I am doing quite well for the most part thankfully!
I am sorry sometimes I seem to disappear or be inattentive. Sometimes life leaps up and knocks you down at a moment's notice.
But the point of it all perhaps is to keep sailing along, regardless of rougher seas.
Anyways, hopefully I feel slightly less peculiar over the next few...

So, Sounds or Tales or Art Stuff? What's Yer Pleasure?
Posted a year agoOl'Squeaks is findin' it hard to jus sit down an write near as much as he'd like to.
The heat of the Summer saps him like a puncture till he sort of tends to flop onto available surfaces in front of fans an sleep.
But even ifn' the flesh is weak, the spirit be willin'! He'd like to make more things fer ye folks mad as he be.
So he jus discovered this 15.Ai thing which is quite fun! Would more of that sort of thing be interesting?
He discovered thankfully he can upload the files to another site so he doesn' jus have to live with horrible bit crushed uploads :)
He's never been enamored by his 'art' but he can throw somethin' together if that's what ye'd prefer to see.
He does try an squeeze together some kind of writin' when he can too.
On the plusedy-plus side, he got tickets to a convention! Been awhile since he's been to one of those! Lookin' forward to visitin' with real folks usin' somethin' other than a screen!

Soo apparently the Capn' touched a never in his comments on certain other deviations. Fine and dandy, but what gives ye who post inflammatory statements the right to have YER voice heard, yer bubble chamber bolstered, an then block an ban anyone who disagrees with ye?
If the Capn' wrote about how he hated broccoli an wished everyone who liked it would spontaneously explode he MIGHT jus get a few comments against this perspective.
An, regardless of how much the Capn' hated broccoli, he would allow those comments to stay because HE started the discussion.
But that's precisely why the Capn' doesn't start political stuff on his page. He admits to his perspective an he's sorry ifn' that annoys ye, but ifn it does HAVE A DISCUSSION, don' retreat behind yer internet walls and stick yer furry fingers in yer ears.
Ye invite discussion, ye get discussion. Ye make an opinion expect opinions.
It's not trollin' if ye demand trolls find ye. It's not abuse an the rest of it if YE started out sneerin' at folks ye never expected would make their own voices heard.
End of rant.

Zniw : Dinosaur Cure for the Blues
Posted 2 years agoAye, the Capn's been a bit low fer awhile. He's been sick, his friends have been sick, he's been lonely an cold with his house full of ants and his city crumbling around his ears.
Then he found this game.
This is such a sweet little character the normally bawdy Capn' feels not inclined to bother her with bawdy thoughts. She thicc though so chances are INCREDIBLY good Zniw is found in compromising positions online.
But this be similar when the Capn' found MLP fer the first time. It jus feels like furdom distilled into the joy and adorableness it can be. There's such a radiant innocence it chased his clouds away fer a bit.
An so he shares it with ye too, hoping it might do the same.
It's been a long hard couple of years an a lot of tears.
It's nice to find those respites in between the deluges ^_^
Sorry ifn' Ol'Squeaks has been hard to find. He needed somethin' to tug his tail out of the mud, an he luckily found it!
Murry Christmas!
Posted 2 years agoCheers ye mates an matetets!
Have a lovely, feastival, garlandy, light an bright an hopefully not too chilly Christmas, aye? :)

At the very least the weather be changin' fer the better, as far as the Capn' be concerned.

Inflation/Popping In Animation
Posted 2 years agoAll furs came from somewhere, an all inflationists too.
From the time that sweet Violet Beauregard popped her first button to watchin' in happen all over again in glorious CGI in the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory remake, yer favorite Capn' has always felt...special feelin's about folks blowin' up like balloons.
An most particularly when they get a little too big fer their britches!
As fer where the Fur thing came from? Probably the Disney. Some of those lovely feminine furs indicate a few of the Disney staff themselves had a thing fer ladies with animal features.
So fer all those mad as The Capn', here's some of his favorite instances of inflation and exploding in various forms of media: some of which might be a bit obscure, but that makes them more fun to find sometimes.
PLEASE SHARE YER OWN! Ol'Squeaks loves inspiration.
An watchin' furs (or even not sometimes) swell up and/or go boom.
1: The Horde (1994)
It's distressingly rare to find a video game where enemies inflate, let alone explode.
The Horde has EVERY enemy do just that!
Without any explanation whenever yer brave hero stabs a little chubby claymation foe they swell up huge, bulge their eyes, and burst into a pile of scraps.
The animation is fast but it's such a novelty to find something NOT Dig Dug that embraced this supposed PG way to deal with 'slaying' an enemy.
Of course folks like The Capn' ruin this by havin' his twisted imagination wonder.
Does that sword cause EVERYTHING it pokes to swell up and explode uncontrollably...?
And yes, one Hordeling does explode in an FMV cutscene!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99NXE00JwO0
2: The Nutcracker (1973)
This Soviet era animated Nutcracker is like if Don Bluth made furry inflation fetish film.
It's beautifully scored an animated but more to the weird purposes of the Capn' it has one of the most compelling inflation/bursting scenarios committed to cinema.
The Mouse Queen and her brat child arrive to harass the queen and her kid, the queen eventually transforming the prince into the Nutcracker.
But the King goes into a secret chamber marked with a skull and cross bones and emerges...with a container of pepper.
Sprinkling this on the Queen makes an already large lady swell up, fighting for a sneeze, until she explodes leaving only her tail...destroyed like so much vermin.
Years later her son takes on his mother's army and her fat body, until (SPOILERS) his crown gets knocked off causing his magic to implode.
He starts to sneeze like good ol' mom, swells up huge, and bursts into gas.
The gas then starts affecting his troops, causing each to start sneezing, swell up, and explode on their final 'CHEW!'
Soon the entire army pops like firecrackers...untll one clearly terrified mouse, holding his nose, emerges and makes a run from the deadly gas that pursues him like a living thing.
He rushes into a hole with the gas trailing after him. He hear a sneeze and a bang.
Ol'Squeaks would LOVE to write or see written a scenario in which an army of fem baddies all got doused in inflation magic/gas like this and had to hold their breath or risk inhaling...then swelling, then sneezing themselves into oblivion. The last one maybe, looking around at the remains of her comrades, makes a run for it but just can't resist her gaseous destiny.
...
Is Ol'Squeaks weird he finds that incredibly hot?

Viva Piñata (2008)
Jus... this whole show.
Not only are the animals pretty cute and hilarious their born purpose is to be broken apart, which is a new kind of objectification. Somewhat creepy is the one who doesn't want to be busted for a child's birthday party so he keeps having to be dragged to his fate or desperately come up with schemes to avoid it.
It's actually quite a fun and funny show which is perfectly fine for kids, but fer bigger kids with weird brains there's episodes like Confetti-Itis.
Here the island's inhabitants drink snake oil since it seems to give them energy, even drinking so much they start to sag like water balloons.
But then the potion takes on a new effect, filling them with confetti until they can no longer move and roll around groaning, bloating, and whimpering about how they feel they'll explode.
It all works out in the end, but there's plenty of male and female furs (well, close to) ballooning up huge, moaning, rolling around, and that great scene of a fat cow piñata begging not to pop.
Again, the Capn' may be a little weird...

Ol'Squeaks is Flattered!
Posted 3 years agoYe have all been very kind to the Capn' sayin' back into the harbor fer a peek around!
Aye, the pandemic was a colossal pain in the tale but luckily none of his close pack was hurt by it.
It DID basically shut down his city port though so not a lot of work on the high seas.
A lot of time locked up on shore, takin' care of folks he can who are worried or sad, tryin' to keep his kin folk afloat.
In between times he's been so tired he hasn't had much of a chance to do much beyond catch some Zs an maybe unwind with one of those new-fangled electronic games.
Jus recently though an opportunity came to throw together some stuff fer his page an he was VERY pleased to find he was recalled fondly an his bawdy nonsense still enjoyed!
Well, he'll try to comment an fav and such too, but he'll definitely try and throw some more stuff together. Maybe not art stuff so much (fur has to know his limitations) but more audio stuff?
Honestly he looked into some of his stuff that showed up on Derpibooru an other places an...the reviews weren' great. He realizes his spellin' isn' the best nor his diction, but he did have fun writin' his tales an figured folks enjoyed them too. XD
He shouldn' be so thin skinned but it took a slash to his writin' enthusiasm that he was a bit of a meme for bad fiction.
So he dragged his heels a bit, but he got a bit of a his mojo back thankfully.
So cheers to all his FA friends! Despite the obstacles, the interminable time spent NOT surrounded by friends in fun suits an mostly spent bein' alone an bored, we're still a community ere ^_^
We sail on regardless of choppy seas, mates!

Still Alive!
Posted 3 years agoJus checkin' in to confirm: the Capn' is still afloat!:)
He's jus been busy and tired an...this whole stupid quarantine has been a massive drain :/
He's takin' steps to get better adjusted, find some inspiration.
It's gettin' cooler an darker an that's actually when Ol'Squeaks feels much more at peace. Sometimes he jus listens to the rain in the eve an it just feels like a pause in the madness swirlin' round: an oasis of good vibes.
He jus hasn' had the inclination to go back to old things or make new stuff an the time hasn' been there to talk to many folks.
But he's fine, he's alive, he's still sailin' on even when the seas be choppy.
May yer own journeys be lookin' up mates!
