Neighbours did it *again* ....
Posted a month agoI normally don't really post about stuff going on around here but oh boy, was this "fun".
TLDR at the end.
So last night my partner had finally managed to fall asleep at a somewhat normal time for a change (around 11pm) and I was about to head to bed myself when the fire alarm started going off.
It happens quite frequently so I ignored the first few beeps until I realised it wasn't stopping and went to check it out. Opened the balcony door and could immediately smell burnt food coming up from below us. My partner was already up and getting dressed so I grabbed the cat transport box and my go bag I keep nearby (for exactly this situation, the downstairs neighbours are.. special) and went to get our cats while my partner went outside to check if the neighbours are home and call emergency services.
First of our cats was just chilling so I could grab her easily and put her in the box but the second one likes sleeping under the bed so I had to get her out somehow. Took way longer than I wanted and I honestly started panicking a bit but kept at it and got her after a few attempts as well.
So we went outside and saw police was already there. When the officer saw me coming out she assured me there was no fire, just smoke and that they had it handled so we could safely go back inside.
I wanted to wait for my partner to come back around at first but she opened the door to the neighbours apartment and the fire alarm was deafening so I wanted to save our cats some stress and took them back inside. Apologised to them and gave them a treat for good measure :')
Later I found out that the police had actually just pulled into our street as my partner went outside because they had been receiving calls all day about the fighting going on downstairs and wanted to check it out. The neighbours in that apartment constantly fight or play music so loud i can hear it like it is my own two floors above them. At first we did report it, but it happens so often we gave up on that since it would basically be a full time job and apparently you almost cant get rid of a tenant in the Netherlands so there's no real point to it.
Anyway police went in and as suspected no one was home. They put some food on the stove, turned it on and left the house with all lights and the TV on, doors closed to make sure it would seem like they are present. Here's a pic of their kitchen my partner took when he went around back to see if they were home: link
Now why do I think this was on purpose? Because they did this exact thing once already a couple months ago.
Except then it was an iPhone in a pan on the stove.
Yeah.
An iPhone.
I'm so glad we are moving soon I just don't feel save here with these unhinged people living below us.
TL;DR: Downstairs neighbours (likely purposely) put food on the stove, left the house with all lights and the TV on and we evacuated with the cats when the fire alarm started blaring until police arrived to see it was luckily just heavy smoke.

Long overdue cat update
Posted 5 years agoI wanted to write this for a while, so here goes ~
May take it down later though, dunno yet.
Tl:dr: we got two kitties in october and one of em is gonna have knee surgery next week
_________________________
Long version:
Some of you may remember that we were thinking about adopting a kitten back in october and I wasn't sure if it was the right thing for us to do.
We had a choice of three and once we decided we were gonna get two my partner instantly knew which one he wanted and I was hung up on two. One lovely shy grey and white kitten and one energetic grey one.
I don't want to go into too much detail here, but unfortunately after much back and forth debating what would be best the final choice way taken from me. They informed us on the day we were gonna pick them up that the grey kitten had passed away due to malnourishment.
This may seem silly, but even though I had decided to let her live a happy outdoor kitten life with someone else I cried the entire way there. (I am a very indecisive person, but deep down I knew I couldn't keep her indoors seeing as she was so full of adventure. One of our aquaintances who showed the kittens to us came with us and was gonna take her to live on her farm)
I still think about her sometimes and even though I haven't quite gotten over it, I thanked the cat for the lesson in letting go many times since.
(tearing up while writing this again, sheesh >.>)
So that day we took home only two fluffy jellybeans, the spaced out black and white long hair Marble and the loving grey and white short hair Chester.
They were both shy at first and we kept them to the living room. We didn't want to expose them to the entire house yet and get them used to us slowly. I also did a little "ritual" we do back in austria where you pick up a new pet and "weave" it around a table leg three times to bind it to your home. (If you don't believe it thats fine, but its a nice little thing to do and it cant hurt right)
Chester was quite skittish at first but she got comfortable really fast and now takes all the attention she can get. She even likes belly rubs :P
Marble on the other hand not so much. She didn't like getting petted at all or only on her sides until very recently. But she is finally warming up to me and it is so extremely rewarding for all the patience to pay off. I love them both to bits <3 (and I'm probably a bit overly protective haha)
They once managed to get onto the balcony because our door is a bit faulty and opened itself when neither of us were home. My partner found them before they could climb to the bottom from out neighbors balcony thankfully, but ever since I've been watching over them like a hawk. No more escaping, no fun allowed :[
In the Netherlands you can get insurance for your pet and we calculated the cost of getting them neutered, wormed etc etc to decide whether or not to get it. Costs were approximately the same so we decided against it. Neutering went without a problem and I even took out the last bit of the dissolving thread with no problem. (Though I was freaked cause one of them had a much longer thread still intact than the other where there was literally just the know left)
Unfortunately shortly after that we ran into some troubles. We had the vet check Marbles leg during the last neutering check because she had been walking very stiff. The vet said we should keep an eye on it for another week and see if it goes away, hoping it was just a strained muscle.
One week came and went and it hadn't really gotten better so we scheduled x-rays. Good new were there was no fracture, her bones were all fine.
Bad news... Well she has patellar luxation. It basically means that the kneecap doesn't have enough space and pops out of where its supposed to be, being painful for the cat.
Our vet referred us to a special clinic for further examination to determine how bad it was and we got an appointment there aswell.
When we were there the specialist there confirmed our suspicions and told us it was tage 3 of 4, meaning it is out more often than in but it can still go back by itself. (worst case would be it goes out and doesn't return by itself).Her other leg also has it but only ins tage one and the vet said it will probably sort itself out. She explained to us how the surgery would be done and informed us about the total cost of the surgery itself, pre- and aftercare, which is around €1200. *oh shiet*
I can only say I am very glad she ended up with us, because while it is expensive, we definitely want what is best for her and scheduled the surgery for next week.
It's gonna be alright I hope.
She's gonna have to be there sober, get another set of xrays and then the surgery. I'm gonna admit I am a bit scared, seeing as she is my little fuzzball and I'll have to trust someone else to make her better, but I know once this is over with she will lead a happy healthy and long cat life. *fingers crossed*
Anyway, that's pretty much a summary of stuff up till now and I will give an update on how the surgery went (this time maybe not months late)
I'm not much for sharing my personal life on here, but I did want to soeak about this.
I apologize if this is tmi, but if you read all of this, thank you for your attention and remember to cuddle your pets ~
_________________________
update:
The surgery went well and our little bean is doing much better already!
While she is a bit angry about having to wear a cone of shame and having to stay in the kennel, I'm sure she knows its gonna be worth it in the long run ;)
May take it down later though, dunno yet.

So we went to an animal shelter yesterday
Posted 5 years ago
So I went to an animal shelter/hotel yesterday with my partner and at first I wasn't even sure if I wanted a cat at all. We saw two we really liked personality wise but I am incredibly torn about it.
Here's the kittens in question. Went there for the grey one, thinking about getting the black and white and grey and white ones.
I have a cat at home (in austria) and I almost feel like I'm betraying him if I get a kitten now. Like it's not gonna be special anymore when I go home and get to spend time with him.
And I really don't want to get a kitten for the wrong reasons or knowing I'll feel bad about it either. Plus we went there to look at an entirely different kitten at first and it looked so damn sad.
Almost as if it was depressed because we didn't want it after all. I KNOW they are all gonna get adopted, but it just felt like that little thing was thoroughly disappointed...
Started crying right there too, I am way too sensitive lately ._.
Freaking crying again now just thinking about it >.<
I really don't know what to do...

Feel good Journal
Posted 9 years ago
This is a Journal for myself when I'm feeling down, so I thought I'd start a collection of comments.
Basically anything that makes me happy is going here.

We, the egg buyers, are buying a single character wing it with no theme other than the character itself. What matters to us is that the artist has a good track record is reasonably priced, does excellent work, and knows what he or she is doing. From what I've seen, that is the definition of Y-O-U.

She's gorgeous, especially with a fuller figure than you usually see in art like this.

Wow. You do some seriously good images. I don't really have any way of actively participating in the egg adopts, but I will watch for sake of good art. Sometimes, it is rarely seen here.

A mere arrangement of colored blocks, a few pictures moving in front of each other, a random amalgam of sylables, an utterly random and meaningless pattern of 1s and 0s. How can such soulless and lifeless things make something so heart wrenching, so soul destroying, so tear jerking. How can it be that something that is not real, is obviously not real, is with but the slightest inspection clearly nothing but the product of soulless electronica playing dress up.... How, I ask you, can such utterly lifeless bits come together to create something so completely saddening and heart wrenching?
To answer, although such things are by themselves lifeless and meaningless, they have one purpose: they are carriers, vessels and vehicles for ideas. It is the artists ideas, his emotions and thoughts, that move us. These things were claim have no meaning, are not real and therefore should not inspire emotion, do so because not what they are, but what they convey. No matter how utterly unreal and soulless the pieces are, what they carry is nothing less than pure soul, pure humanity, pure emotion: The will and thoughts of an artist,

Obviously inspired by Frank Frazetta's famous "Cat Girl" painting. That's a beautiful painting and by far the highest achievement of the "sexy woman with wild animals" genre of fantasy art, but its menacing undertones bother me a lot these days. Even the most beautiful picture of its kind portrays sensuality and animality as dark, dangerous, detached things... I love furry art because it does the opposite and potrays them as enjoyable and down to earth things. So I wanted to make a painting with a similar composition conveying this brighter kind of mood which I feel is the most distinctive trait of furry art.

We started off at level one, an archer and a rock
Together at the purple, twenty seconds on the clock
The buff was dropped in moments, and away we went to lane
Our hope in our aggressiveness, our faith in our sustain
A fire burned within your eyes, but our enemies were strong
You could not dash or cripple, and the duo lane was long
So when you pushed too far, and felt the giant’s chilling breath
I rushed to danger, shielded you, and took your place in death
I slowly wandered back to lane and helped you build your stacks
I warded every corner and supported your attacks
Despite our weak beginning we were evening the score
At level ten we led by one, at level twelve by more
But the other team was clever, and so when the game grew late
They grouped and started Fire, and you gladly took the bait
I couldn’t leave my ADC; I blinked and tried to zone
But my team was far and scattered, and I was left alone
When I died you hid until our solo ported in
And with him you killed the Giant, and the titan for the win
They hailed you as a hero, and you topped the damage chart
They branded me a failure, one who failed to do my part
I sadly sat in lobby as you joined the mocking crowd
Your words cut deep, and in my head, your angry voice was loud
As I closed the game and turned away, this was my only thought:
What hurt the most was not your scorn, but how quickly you forgot

Ok, so I took a quick scan over your gallery, and read through some of the comments on the NSFW and the SFW stuff. From my ten minutes experience, I think that the comments you got on your SFW stuff is far more in-depth and praise your art a lot more compared to the porn. Not saying that the comments on your porn is bad, it just focuses more on the subject matter, or porn, than the actual artistic skill gone into the drawing.
I dont think youre doing anything wrong, I think youre in a phase were you might feel that youve stagnated a bit, and that is something I feel several times a year. Often it is because I have reached a level in the things that I am working on; anatomy, rendering and expressions (I always work at improving 3 things at a time), that I cannot imrpove further on. Then I just change up one, two or even all three things, and continue working on that.
However, one friendly tip that you dont have to follow at all, but as you can see in my gallery, most of my porn work is rather tame. It is more pin-up like, and the comments I get are more of an artistic focus than the actual theme of the drawing itself. Many people have actually told me that they like that I do stuff this way, because (their words, not mine) most people that draw porn on FA draw porn with capital P, not erotica as I do, if I were to categorize the two.
In a way I am maybe making my art more desirable because not many draw porn the way I do? Maybe I have, without knowing it, by doing something a bit different, have made my porn art more in demand because tame/pinup porn is less drawn?
I have tried out more explicit stuff, but that didnt get the same appreciation for the artistic effort put into it as the tamer stuff, which is kind of a downer if youre an artist, but a completely understandable response if youre the audience/onlooker.
Another tip is that fame, if that is what you are seeking, comes slow, and then it just skyrockets. I have worked my fucking ('scuse my language) ass off to learn how to draw, and trying to find what can make me stand out has been such a tedious journey that I actually have given up several times. I didn't get "famous" until late 2014, which is not even 2 years ago. It takes a while, and if you are setting your goal too far up the road, it will drain you out. So, set shorter goals that will benefit you; learn how to draw hands, draw eyes, render hair etc. Don't set your goal at becoming "popufur", because that is too far up ahead, but will happen if you work hard enough!
And one last tip that I hope you will take to heart (but can be a bit frustrating to hear) if you draw for comments, fans and faves, you will quickly feel so extremely malnourished and understimulated as an artist, because you draw for the 10 second rush from reading a comment or seeing a fave. We all have been there, even I, but I quickly understood that if I can find something that gives me a more lasting rush, I will feel more inspired and draw more. For me, that is being helpful and making people happy, or having fun in streams :D
Good luck and sorry for the wall of text haha, I like being helpful :>
