Almost Better
Posted 2 days agoJust to let you know, I'm almost better from the cold that I've been having these past few days. I don't like being sick with a cold. It's not fun at all.
What's Up?
Posted 4 days agoHi there! How have you guys been? Sorry about not being active here. I was sick with a cold these past few days, and I was trying to take some medicine and get some rest and all that stuff. I was also more active on my Discord server, and chatting with some of my online friends on Discord. I have also been watching some Pet Alien and Space Goofs lately. They’re two of my favorite shows right now. But one day, I might want to check out Bump in the Night. It looks really interesting to me.
The Bats' Names Are...
Posted 3 weeks agoSo, it's been decided, the bats are Vesper (the silly one), Echo (the fat one), and Noctus (the brown one). Thank you, Tigerclaw82 for coming up with those names.
My New Bat Characters
Posted 3 weeks agoI love my new bat characters so much! I'm planning on drawing some more pictures of them in the near future.
However, the one thing I need to do is give them names. If you have any suggestions, please let me know in a comment.
I Like Hippos
Posted a month agoHippos are one of my favorite animals, and to be honest, they're my favorite out of all the African animals. I love them because they look so big and chubby, they look cute but they're actually pretty dangerous, and for some other reason that I would rather not explain here.
Comments Disabled
Posted a month agoI'm thinking about disabling comments on some of my pictures. I'll probably do the same thing to the newest pictures that I will upload here from now on. I don't want to see anymore rude comments or anything else that would insult me.
Orangutans
Posted a month agoOrangutans have become my favorite animal recently. I'm not sure exactly what I like about them, but I've heard that they're closely related to an extinct species of ape known as Gigantopithecus. And to be honest, I don't know a lot about orangutans, at least not as much as I know about chimpanzees or gorillas.
Bears
Posted a month agoI've been thinking about bears lately. Turns out that people who don't believe in Bigfoot/Yeti think that creature could most likely be a giant bear. That's one of the reasons why I like bears so much, especially brown bears and black bears.
I Regret This
Posted a month agoSome of the things I'm into, I would rather keep to myself. For example, I regret that phase where I identified myself as a "furry" and a part of the furry fandom. It made me an easier target for cyberbullying.
I'm Still Not OK
Posted a month agoWhy would I rather be on Discord or Telegram than on DeviantArt and FurAffinity and why do I suggest you add me as a friend there?
Well, it's because that person on DA and FA keeps stalking and harassing me by posting creepy comments and accusing me of lying and running something called "What About". Honest to God, I was never aware of "What About" until he brought it up. I could block and report him, but he will later find a way to come back by making another alt-account. He's been doing this to me for more than a year now and shows no sign of stopping.
Deleting Some Pictures
Posted a month agoI’m probably going to delete some of my pictures because it seems that my drawings of Crumbo have become repetitive. I would rather focus more on quality over quantity. Plus, there are very few people in the community who are interested in seeing pictures of my characters, especially one who is as unique as Crumbo.
DeviantArt
Posted a month agoDoes anyone from DeviantArt miss me already? If only there is a way to let them know that I will be back soon. I deactivated my account temporarily just so I could avoid the April Fool's Day madness this year.
I'm Not OK
Posted 2 months agoI just wish I could apologize to that one person whom I betrayed. If only I could undo what I've done to that person. It was not my normal behavior, and I was off my medication that night.
Sorry, I'm just in a bad mood right now.
You Know What Grinds My Gears?
Posted 2 months agoYou know, it irritates me when people mention the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s as "problematic" times to be alive. Maybe it's because I'm blinded by nostalgia. I know these times weren't perfect and all, but some people that I see on social media these days treat these decades like the 50s and 60s.
There is something I must confess.
Posted 2 months agoPlease forgive me for venting, but I have yet another confession to make. I honestly feel guilty, ashamed, and embarrassed of myself for a cartoon character who is like this. I'm pretty sure that some of you might already know this, and I think I acknowledged it a few times before, but one of my favorite characters happens to be a stereotype, or something like a racial caricature, that, you might say, didn't age the cartoon quite well. I mean, just look at Crab, or the Attack Guy, or Mr. Attack, as I would sometimes like to call him. The French and Canadian animators worked on the show designed him with a yellow body and a face with squinted eyes and big nutcracker teeth, and he also wears a red bandana. I've seen some frames of animation in which his eyes are dotted, but still. Definitely a product of it's time. I've seen an episode in which he bows down while a gong sound effect plays. I've also seen him do karate chops multiple times throughout the show. For example, he used them to make clay sculptures. Ironically, the scenes that I saw were dubbed in Mandarin Chinese and aired uncensored on a national television network in mainland China.
I know the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s, which were the years of the childhood I wish I would've had, were quite progressive times when it came to how the animation industry portrayed people from different backgrounds, but I must admit, some of the things about certain people, we used to get wrong, and politically incorrect humor, especially stereotypical humor, was still pretty commonplace. For example, I saw an episode of Sharky and George in which some of the fish are red colored and dressed up as Native Americans and act like the Savage Indian stereotype, which I know that a lot of people these days find offensive. I'm not one of those people from Twitter who like to preach about how "representation matters", but I understand that a lot of people are concerned about representation and how they represent characters from different racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds, sexual orientations, and disabilities. After all, representation in media has quite a rocky history, and I'm not sure if I'm the right kind of person to talk about that sort of thing.
I wonder if there are any other people out there who share my sentiment. They have a character from a show that they like from their childhood, and in spite of their stereotypical features, they're still a fan of that character, yet they sometimes feel ashamed about it, and they're worried about being judged by others because of it.
Maybe I Should Leave
Posted 2 months agoI'm still planning on abandoning DeviantArt on March 31st, but maybe I should abandon FurAffinity as well. After all, there are a lot of other people on this website who still don't like me at all because of my past behavior. I'm already blocked by them, and rightfully so.
Setting Up a Discord Server
Posted 2 months agoI am creating a new Discord server for me and my friends. Here is the link to it in case anyone is interested.
Nix's Werld: https://discord.gg/yneDndMUef
If you prefer to not use Discord, then that's OK with me. We could chat with each other through notes if you like.
We Can Still Be Friends
Posted 2 months agoIf you want to add me back as a friend on Discord, go right ahead, but whatever you do, please...
- Do not add me onto any Discord server.
- Don't you dare ask me what my kinks or fetishes are.
- Don't even try to roleplay with me, because I am not good at it.
- Don't you ever try to scam me or offer to do some artwork for me.
- I would rather talk to those who are 18 years of age or older.
- I much prefer to speak to them through DMs.
I Am Not OK
Posted 2 months agoI am not OK. I have become really upset and I had a mental outburst recently. Then, I removed all of my contacts from Discord. If I hurt anyone's feelings, then I'm sorry.
They could add me back if they want to. My username is nixwerld2000
You can also find me on Telegram where I am nixwerld
