At some point in the distant past, I informed deviantart.com that I am male. Indeed, i was, and remain, in possession of a set of meat and vegetables.
In some UI update, deviantart.com has seen fit to assume that I wish there to be a text block "He/Him" displayed next to my account's username. I do not.
For one thing, there is a widely observed correlation between people with "pronouns in the bio", and people who are insufferable. Also, this account isn't really "me", it's just some pictures I made. Who or what I am isn't really relevant. If you wish to talk about this user account, and don't want to type the dumb name I picked out of the air so many years ago, I suppose "it" is apt, but your speech isn't really my business.
That's about all. Peace out.

I tried to change my avatar back to the April fool one that DA game me because I would have found that hilarious. But apparently it exceeds the size limit. I was annoyed to learn that.
That brings me to the end of that story. How are you?

Dangerous Pictures Rant
3 min read
OK it's ranting time. I'm currently filled with righteous indignation and furious anger. Why? Let me explain.
I was previously under the pleasant delusion that my country was currently some kind of shining example of a nice place to live, and proof that democracy works. It actually turns out that it isn't really, and it doesn't really, or it's a sham. I used to think that all those other countries that we went to bomb were the "bad guys", and all the stupid stuff in the past - like women not having the vote, it being illegal to be gay and stuff, were ancient history, and everything was cool now. Not so!
If you've casually heard the misleading news about the Dangerous Pictures Act, you'd probably be under the misapprehension that the idea was to ban footage of genuine sexual crimes. Were it so, this would be well and good. What's actually happening though is that having some porn in which consenting adults are getting a bit too freaky for whoever is arbitrarily deciding whether they are being offended or not, can get you three years in the slammer. The rules are really subjective and vague. No one is really sure what is allowed and what is not.
Some things are clear. Bestiality and Scat are covered. The first one seems reasonableish. Animals can't give consent. Scat i don't have a problem with. I haven't seen two girls one cup myself, but if somebody else wants to that's their business. What's really messed up is the bit about "violent pornography", which is really vague. Sex is essentially a violent act. Like motor racing. Energetic and forceful. Where they draw the line between legally acceptable and unacceptable is not defined. Spanking is arguable. Ball busting is arguable. Tentacle monsters are arguable. Rough sex. Catfighting. Etc.
What's really worrying is the way this got put through parliament. Won't go into detail. I could rant a lot more, but couldn't say anything that hasn't been said a million times before. Others have put it far more eloquently. Check out www.melonfarmers.co.uk, www.backlash-uk.org.uk, or google. Loads of great articles, for what it's worth. There are some cool people around. Some consolation.
Basically it's dawned on me that we're living in an Orwellian nightmare. Melodramatic maybe, but you get the idea. A significant number of our elected representatives are either puritannical fools, or simply not paying attention. It's possible that something somewhere on my harddrive might fall foul of this crazy law. No way of knowing unless some jobsworth decides to send the boys around to steal my computer and look at all the stuff. I imagine most other guys with computers are as "morally corrupt" or whatever as I am, but that's no defense.

Wolverine and the X-Men

This looks pretty ace :
www.cyber-animation.com/wolver…
According to the web page, the target audience age is 6-12. Should I be embarrased? I watched the 2nd X-Men movie the other day and thought it was a bit childish, or crappy, or too po-faced or just a bit not that good. Actually the first X-Men movie was pretty decent. But somehow maybe cartoons are inherently different and more awesome or something. If grown ups can watch an X-Men movie, surely it's OK to watch the cartoon as well. Can i watch this?

Hi there. Do you ever get the feeling that somehow, your life is incomplete? Well, i found out why this is:

Pretty fricking awesome, right? I guess you were also feeling incomplete because i've not been around. Sorry about that. Things to do and stuff. Hopefully will catch up in the new year and draw some pictures or something. Hope you all had a nice Xmas.
