There are lots of charities doing actual work to save animals all over the world. 'Painted Dog Foundation' is a great example, as well as local animal shelters etc.

Personally, I get pissed off by the fact that people wave away charities like they are just "asking for money". It's like people find them more annoying than actually a good cause.

Worst of all is, that if YOU give money to these wonderful people, you get weird looks from others like they're trying to say "ow you're one of THOSE" like that's supposed to be a bad thing :/

^As long as you make sure the money actually gets put towards the goal the charity claims it is, others' judgement shouldn't stop you from supporting what you want. Just be careful, as many charities end up donating more to their high-ups than anything else.


As for my own rant, what's with the people who claim to be nature lovers or whatever, then demonize natural behaviors? Animals eating other animals is natural, and humans in particular are a natural predator species. Agriculture did shift them away from *relying* on hunting, but these anti-carnivores act like because they can eat the spoils of the farmland that replaced wild habitat, they're some paragon of nature.

l'm all for wanting to preserve the natural beauty of the world, but nature is brutal. Wild animals aren't inherently on moral high ground because they have no technological weapons. (but they do have many, many biological ones...)

^ THIS.

I'm really bad at writing down proper story notes, so I basically ramble ideas to a friend through IM then copypaste them to a document later.
WELL. I've been trying to keep down my paranoia, so for a while I've been not worrying myself about having my discussions watched online. Then I gave another look at the privacy policy of the service and it flared up again. But this time I'm not too worried about my personal conversations but the idea that the information about my story could be noticed and sold. Maybe that sounds even crazier, but it really makes me nervous, so I'm not gonna do it anymore. And that really sucks because I have a lot of fun describing my story ideas...
I already spent a few hours removing all the messages I care about, and I *hope* that actually removed them from the server and not just from my log.

I had to cut off someone I saw as like a younger brother today. That really hurt. I just hope when I try to reestablish contact someday that he's changed

Time for me to vent now. I don't do it often. If I do I usually keep it to my own Personal Journal, but here we go.
I wanna be a bit selfish here now to just vent. Lately I try to respond every now and again here to reply to certain people, to help them. I want to vent now, though.

I've been sick and in pain for 4 or 5 days now? I can't recall exactly, as me being sick really threw me off a lot of things I was going to do. My planning usually helps me remember what day it is, how many days have passed since then. I mean I know and realise the date and time, just not how long something has been going on for. If that makes sense...
Usually if you live with someone they take care of you when you're sick. At least that has been my experience so far. This time I'm sick, though?
It's been nothing but me having to help myself and then also get yelled at and whatnot more because I haven't done certain things. No understanding, no going a bit less rough on me. Nope. Complete turn-pver from other times. The time hasn't passed for these things I have to do, as in the deadline hasn't passed by a longshot, but I get yelled at anyways.
Instead of usually sleeping in so my body gets more rest due to it being sick, I wake up (reasonably) early. I have to right now help this other person I'm living with (some of you might know who if you followed my Personal Journal)... I am so done with this. Hopefully this spring/summer things will come to a close so I can move out and live by myself. I don't "expect" people to take care of me unless they have a certain connection to me, or at least have some understanding. Like this one person I would expect it from.

After lunch I'm going to lock myself up in my room until dinner. Screw this.
Hopefully I'll get some writing and drawing going considering the time I have to do that, but I don't know if I can since I'm still extremely sick. It's hard to focus. Not so much a lack of motivation, rather a lack of focus and imagination. Sometimes I have imagination but not the opportunity to work it out (like what happened today so far I have to be busy with all kinds of things).

All these things that took 3 hours to do with this person could have taken me 15, maybe 30 minutes. It has to go their way, even if it's my things.
ARGH.

Holy shit imma blow my brains out before this over. I refused to fight,i said the words i refuse to fight with anybody on this and yet im still being blamed and demonized for a fight that never happened. But someone needed attention so much they kept a fight going in their head and im sure theyre out there maeking shit up. Now im afraid my friends arent gonna talk to me anymore, its looking like thats the case, and all because of a fight that litterally never happened outside someones imagination


And noaw i have no one to even talk to about it because of all this attention seeking by people

Today's another one of those days. Decided to put on some Creedence Clearwater Revival, just jam along. I always seem to forget about one particular song. "Someday Never Comes" is just one of those songs that strikes a chord in me. It's about the singer's father leaving him as a child, him growing up and doing the same to his son. I just broke down and cried for a while until the song ended.


My father did the same (while I was in the womb) and I've probably only seen him a few times when I was around twelve before he ran off again. Sometimes I worry when I finally have a child, I'll for some unfathomable reason leave too. I always hope I'm wrong but you never know until you're there. I know for me, the lack of father really messed up and I'm not sure I could even have a child knowing that it's a possibility I could ruin it's life. I don't know, maybe I'd be a good father. I just don't know. I just had to vent that.

P.S. Hey dad, go to hell

So i lurking /r/Furry i just love how garbage the sub is. Nobody there is interested any discussion and just downvote everything or just argumentative jerks. While really low effort meme posts or art get's upvoted.


If people are wondering yes i got ganged up on there few times calling out stupid/asshole users or because i forgot to credit a artist. Worse than FA forums shockingly.

I mean, you can always visit /pol/

But the thing is: draw a crappy yet popular figure and you're set. Make something good drawn but unpopular; guess who's gonna get excomunicated

Sometimes, my parent's common sense makes me want to put a hole in the wall with my head.
(I swear who says if I can't start an art club at the school, start one at some random guy's house, in the suburban (If there was a house with space for fifteen highschoolers).) And let's not forget all those wackjobs shooting people nowadays. And my dad's like, 'Oh you're just bringing up issues,' well if there weren't any issues to bring up, I wouldn't have to bring them up would I?
Or who else says 
In short, overthrow the art club president in college. Yeah...
Just like, WHO SAYS THIS!? I understand my parents saying, "You give up too easily." BUT IN THIS SITUATION PLEASE JUST CONSIDER THE ISSUES. Like. Gah. I swear I'm not the brightest tool in the shed. But like. C'mon!
