oh the console vs pc debate the topic i hate and try to avoid at every point and if anyone here trys to put me up on it im going to clear it up right now

I DONT CARE WHAT IS BETTER

consoles and computer are in sense the same thing they both have a cpu, a gpu, a hard drive, a case, RAM, a power supply, and a disk drive (if you use one)

the difference is that the console (ps2, xbox, ps3, xbox 360, xbox one, ps4) are all built with the same cpu, gpu, RAM, psu, disk drive

a pc is different in the way of parts those with a desktop can pick and chose same with laptops

they can both play a game issues come in when the places like EA do a bad port to pc because they didnt code it for the diffrence in the hardware between computers because i run a shitty i3 from intel and a 630 from msi but it can still render games for me same as a console can

to finish up this rant

console and pc can do the same but in diffrent ways and with diffrent hardware

I've been posting my art to Imgur and stuff, mostly so I can post it on here. I haven't put up much stuff yet but a lot of what I do have has negative votes, and the typical comment like "downvoted because furries remind me of bestiality" or "get this yiff out of here"(pic was fully clothed and not porny in any way). Don't get me wrong, there are decent comments too of course, but really...?

I know it's super duper common sentiment on the internet but it just bugs me when people just hate on things they don't know much about(not just the furry fandom). Human-like characters with animal features? Must be gross hardcore porn.

Sorry, rant done.

This is one of the main things that made me decide imgur is overrated as hell. Sure, it looks good from the frontpage, but usersub is disgusting.

Yeah. It's probably not as irksome as I'm making it out to be, but I suppose I can just make my pics private and it won't be a problem anyway.

So long as people continue to view races, gender identities, sexes, sexual orientations and religious beliefs/lack thereof as two sides of a coin, there will always be oppression and the 'war' will never end. Because if one side is up and visibly accepted, then the other side is, factually, down and not acknowledged or accepted.

These things all reside on the same plane of their respective aspects of identity, and those who deny this are perpetuating suffering on multiple ends. Hate is hate, and there's no such thing as reverse hate, no matter what people shout on the news. If people actually want equality rather than revenge then they will be respectful and kind to all that they meet rather than ostracizing/dehumanizing people who aren't 'like them.' No group is wholly exempt of guilt in this respect, but that doesn't mean all members of these groups are guilty.

If you cry for equality yet act on preconceived biases, you're part of the problem and you're oppressing yourself as well as others.

If you answer hate with hate, you are no longer fighting for peace, you are fighting for the shoe to be on the other foot.

Taking offense to everything one doesn't agree with only shows their lack of self acceptance and the unwillingness to accept the undeniable existence of adversity. If one is truly comfortable with themself and their ideals/feelings, they will be willing to face adversity and continue on their way.

I'm STILL waiting for BETA readers I asked MONTHS ago to proof-read my book before I publish it, but they're way too slow. They're taking forever to read it and, I'll admit it's kind of a long book, but I'm on the verge of just going "Screw it" and find a publisher soon.

Last I checked, the proof readers were still reading the second chapter. There's about 12 to 15 in the book.

I honestly was coming OUT of my depression. Thought I was close to finally feeling OK. Now I know what my parents really feel about me I guess. were not able to say it to my face of course, but I overheard them talking about me. I guess I had good reason to feel like crap... I guess that's all I am now to them.

A useless sack of crap.


Edit: I was actually just reflecting my own self hate onto my Parents. They said nothing of the sort

I'm sick of summer. I'm tired of the blazing heat and the fact it makes me so lethargic and sick. I miss winter.

My phone just got soft bricked, caused by duplicated Xposed modules. I could fix it easily, by disabling Xposed framework via recovery, but phone's recovery is in Korean >.<
