Update 10: What does the fox say!

Quick Video I suggest you play it while Reading: (Now I am sure you will hear about this video in the near future, its crazy, it weird along the lines of Gangnam Style and its making a splash on the internet, come on in and get a taste of what could easily be the next big internet thing.)



As much as I hate doing this to you guys after being one of my first big posts in a while I am up'ing some pics that need to be worked on. I picked up this program called black ink and it is amazing for drawing, I just don't know how to make it work the way I want it to. Tinkering needs to be done before I can have fun sadly. Its got this editor which lets you mess around with how you want brushes to work and it involves math and gah, its have faith in me cause I don't have faith I can figure it out quite yet. In the mean time I got a fox whose going to think about what he wants to say...
ANYWAY!
Guess what we have a problem, and by we I mean I find things annoying. See what I find annoying is how many videos there are where people are doing something they like and making other peoples day a little easier yet people give them crap because of some arbitrary feature. The most recent place this happened was on vinescope where I finally couldn't take it and I said something
"I like how everyone judges how fat he is. While you are at it how about you make fun of Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, oh I'm sorry did the name not ring a bell? What about the song somewhere over the rainbow ever hear the one with the little tropical melody? That was made by a guy who at one point in his life weighed over 750 pounds, but nobody cared because he put smiles on faces all around the world which is more then you will ever do if you just judge someone by their outward appearance. TL:DR Hes fat and making people laugh while you judge him and make people feel ashamed about their body when the only one who should be ashamed is you."
Its a video of a guy whose overweight who drew Fox The Fox and the Hound on his stomach and just bounces about in a comedic fashion, while yes being that overweight is unhealthy the circumstances which put him overweight are none of your business. No this keeping in mind is a guy but imagine if it was a girl of average weight doing the same thing showing off her stomach she would instantly be called a sloot by girls, and all the guys would turn her into a sexual object. Its a sad society we live in I think this song by example will best sum it up, so I will leave it with you guys just see if you think these words ring true. Set a good example for me will you guys?

Cheers

Just a Subtle Self Reminder...

You say emotion like its a bad thing...
Every few minutes I have to remind myself that I am actually in college. I find that college puts people in my age range of 18-21 in an interesting situation. In colorado 21 is around the age that you can do most things without being punished. So here I am in college at 19. I wouldn't say I am an average case and in all honesty this would require research that I am not willing to do yet, but I feel like there is some interesting patterns that have been formed in people with positions of authority. Eh I am sure there is something but I feel like a project like this would draw attention. Thanks  Tucker for the video (NSFW)...
Today I saw a sign for what I thought was foxes boxing... I was disapointed to find out it was foxy boxing. So many misleading signs around campus, it annoys me...
I wrote a comment on a whiteboard on a fridge I did approve of. Someone wrote a message on it and next to it I wrote. "Quick someone has confused a fridge as an efficeint means of communication!"
Anyway there is a massive amount of just emotion going around in college it is just some.

You'll never know how much it hurts to let you go...
The show is over it is time to go so leave me here...
Tied up to my acting post of being fake so you will never know how much it hurts to let you go every night...

Update 8: TechnoElectro... That sounds surprisingly cool...





T-t EcHno!
So let's get down to business to talk. I apologize for not posting more frequently but I got a job, and that has been taking a lot of time out of what I have been able to do. Sadly I don't have a lot of pieces but I do have several photos I am going to post and this update is going to be relatively short. I want to start with a story from my job where I work the cash register, I was reading the soup menu off to a customer and I got to one soup and after I said it the customer looked really hurt. Like I had unearthed some sort of traumatic event and she looked at her husband and whispered something into his ear and they left in a hurry. I don't know if I did something wrong but I feel like there was a genuinely deep story there. I really hope I didn't offend her though.




Anyway I have been also spending a lot of time on Twitch.tv which is a video game streaming network where the host a lot of tournaments. It is really worth checking out and I have a few people I would like you gamers who read this blog to check out but until I get their permission to get the traffic because that is the polite thing to do I don't want to post any names.
Lastly we have a series of pictures from inside a robotic car wash and butterfly bones! That's all I got guys sorry for the short post if you have any questions or requests hit em my way!
Cheers!

Random TimeS




Just a little something simple I felt like doing. Its been an ongoing theme the grim pinata. Hopefully sometime I can go through the whole process of it.


Transit Of Venus:

Well the TRANSIT OF VENUS is today. So check it out, if you don't know what it is it is basically the process of venus  Sorry for the dramatic effect and such but hey once in 105 years so it deserves some sort of effect. Basically it will be Venus floating in front of the sun. Once again I don't want to take any responsibility for anybody going blind but the best way to look at it is through a pin hole camera.
My Rendition of the Transit
Fish for friend!

Ghosting




 Anyway did I mention my science start
yeah I blame this. Anyway I gave up TV because of commercials, they just don't seem to rub me the right way for instance today during my Daria marathon I ran across a Buick commercial that compared the amount of thoughts a human has cmpared to a car... What are advertisers thinking? I must be missing the psychology of advertising sooo much because I feel insulted more often then not. While were at it why is Hagandazz advertising making me confuse the ice cream for a christian church. Overall adverts are really starting to fail me. Just complete and utter failing.

Update Five:

Happy Pi Day! That is right Pi Day you know 3/14. Yeah I am a nerd respect it. So how are you guys it has been forever and a half... Sorry bout the long weight and I am not about to say the most recent work is absolutely mind blowing, I should really develop some sort of posting procedure. Procedures are great when they are used. Unfortunately I can't seem to do that recently... Really sucks. Well 8mg of pills ought to help me sleep. I hate saying that cause people make a big deal out of it but its not. Pills don't make me its the concept and content that make me. Anyway you know you play too much Plants Vs Zombies when you have all the achievments for it its pretty sad. I always find it disgusting how people judge other people. There is more for this post but I am falling asleeep! Its a day later so lets finish this up. Happy post pi day! Going to start out with a lovely conversation:

Me: has andropanda been in?
Auto: Haven't seen her, no.
Manticore: Same
Me: wonder where she went...
Manticore: Last thing she said to me was 2 days ago "DEADCOREISDEAD!"
Manticore: 2 hours later, she signed off.
Me: hmm but what does it mean? 

Something about this chat I just love, and it is the fact that its with some of my best friends ever. Yeah I swapped their names out at their request. Shout outs to them for being AWESOME, I mean seriously you guys are unreal. Yes andropanda is a name what of it? It has been so long and I feel like somehow there is still so little yet to say but in less then 10 Days I will be cruising. So that tis when the picture storm occurs. When I get back from the cruise. In the mean time I just need to wrap school up like a boss and get rocking and rolling. Once again suggestions to what I should post is always appreciated if anybody is still reading this blasted blog. Happy Saint Pattys Day weekend!
-Cheers

Digital Finger Painting:

I have spent over 1,000 hours at the museum. Every second of it I have loved because it's a great place with great people. Reliability isn't something too common anymore and the fact that they are there and can support me when needed is amazing.
Once again bringing cynicism to a gun fight

Salvage:

Alright so short little post because I want to explain this picture. It was done ONLY with a circle tool. NOTHING ELSE. I am not saying I have talent (because it was posted in a thread on canv.as which challenged others to do the same and they had some amazing ones.) I am just damn proud of what I did. It took a long time and honestly it does seem like something I would genuinely make. I didn't try and go overboard for once I just had fun. You know fun right? The thing you used to have a lot of as a kid. So some little advice. Sit back relax and enjoy the little things. Make a name for yourself don't make money for your name because money won't remember you while your name can live forever.
Cheers

    Its been a while...

    Since they let me out to play!
    Hey its February 3rd and currently I am sick. Also bored. So I decided why not get back onto blogger and throw some content out for my two followers since I know that if somehow they do everything they have to do and want to do they might trickle down over here.
    Few images I am tossing up are some things I did during school hours. Yeah I know I should be doing school during school hours but inspiration like lightning never strikes the same spot twice, nor is it good for you're overall health.
    I mean I have been inspired to do a lot recently but who knows if I am in over my head. I have to do robotics and in the process make things crazy steam punk. I have to make a bunch of arm bands, goggles, and leather aprons none of which is cheap all of which is going to take a while but hell it should be fun right. Unlike the cold I have.
    Couple quick things.

    • Learned how to make .gifs
    • Bought F.3.A.R
    • Currently wearing orange pants 
    Quick funny video for you guys...
    Well funny to me. Skip to 0:50 for the reading of sexy and I know it.






    The other day my friend posted up this
    link. It is kind of about religion which is why I don't want to post it on here because I don't want to confuse people on my stance. By sending you to the youtubes you wont associate the video with me as much as you will with the youtubes.




    Short post my bad
    Cheers though

    Update Three:

    Take it to the fridge:
    Really.
    I don't even know.
    I need to stop drafting posts at 1:00 in the morning. But I just read Cyanide and Happiness for a laugh and I came across this comic. It got me thinking about all the opposites of the holidays. Holiday spirit, without offending anybodies religious views. Although I find the tackiness of some houses Christmas decorations to just be offensive anyway. Or how we define peoples relations through presents while telling kids that really its about spirit. Although at least one funny thing did come out of Christmas shopping. When I told my mom I needed to get one more present and I was going to go drive she was concerned about my driving abilities on the ice and said
    "You will go when hell freezes over."
    "Mom if you haven't looked outside it already did freeze over."
    She gave me that fake laugh and said
    "Who is the present for?" So  I looked her dead in the eye and said.
    "Well you."
    I could have sworn she said dammit under her breath.
    Skull'd
    Now December is my least favorite month. Really. I mean I live in Colorado and I have met some of the nicest people in the world. But if Colorado's weather was a person, nobody would associate the word nice with him/her. While the weather is ideal for things like skiing and snow boarding which people in the mountains do a lot. It generally gets in the way of a lot and it is one of the banes of my existence. Now I know someone is already saying (and considering I do know a few Canadians read this blog every now and then I know who). "Yeah well its not as bad as over here." Maybe not but really I am not complaining about the amount of snow. I am just complaining about the snow and if I were in your shoes and it was snowing but worse then over here then the only thing that would change would be how bitter I am towards the snow.

    Yeah I plug in my acoustic
    You know what while I am complaining, I hate bats, and bees in video games. I started playing Terraria recently and as soon as I saw a bat in that game I had flash backs of every time I had to fight bats in a video game. Castlevania had bats, Legend of Zelda has bats, Resident evil 5 had a Batapillar which was a bat and a Caterpillar. All those different games, all those flashbacks came back and I prepared to fight a bat, and then a GIANT BEE came and killed me. So yeah bees. I hate them too. I like flowers because they are quiet and pretty and don't move when I take pictures unlike birds, but as soon as a bee is in one of them dancing around on top of the flower either it moves the flower enough to where the picture I take looks bad or at least worse then it already would have been. Or the part of the flower I was taking a picture of gets blocked by a fat abdomen or thorax. I feel like I sound pretentious right now though. "Hmm yes those bees are quite pesky when it comes to doing photography..." Then again with only 2 followers... Who cares what I look like especially online.
    So take it to the fridge.
    Now.

    Update Two:

    Pretty Blank:


    Bob Ross's paint Brush

    So looking at my blog I realize that I suck at grammar and that so far all of my posts that involved original content were in black and white. Which is unusual of me because I normally like bright pictures. With lots of shiny effects. Unfortunately as much as I wish I was as high caliber artist as say Bob Ross and his magical abilities to paint a black cat eating blue berries in a coal mine at midnight with just the color orange. That guy was just cool. He was a ninja. In the mean time my non-ninja forgetful self forgot to say that I also including digital art enjoy photography immensely. Art is something that even though I am not the best at I admit is one of the more beautiful ways to show emotion and photography is one of my preferred ones for illustrating the real world since free hand I am not the best in the world.
    Cement Flowa
    I have always had a basic philosophy with photography and that is its always a good time to take a picture but its not always the best angle. This was a philosophy grown on the back of my photography shenanigans being mostly done with film instead of digital. Each time I take a film picture, I lock my joints and hold my breathe not out of artistic style or to make it look really dramatic but because film is expensive. For that split moment even if my eye blends with machine perfectly to capture a moment in time, somebody at a store captures some more money from my wallet. I could say its the sacrifice of an artist, but when the reward is greater then the loss its not much of a sacrifice is it. Anyway I am going to toss up some pictures.
    Roses
    Cruise

    Cheers!

    I didn't make these videos

    But I do like them and no I don't believe in the delete button.
    I don't feel like original content at 1:32 in the morning which is when this was drafted...


    Shower:

    Took a shower to start my day opened the door from my bathroom with a kick and the steam rolled out with it and for a brief second I felt like a bad ass until I looked in the mirror and saw I grabbed the pink towel....

    Update One!

    Its a BP oil spill Jellyfish.
    We deliver:
    As for what we deliver I am not quite sure but hey got to start somewhere so my first post is going to include a couple pictures and maybe some lines from my favorite piece. Little bit about why I do all these silly little pics. It all started when I got my first computer and didn't like any of the backgrounds I found. I mean any of them because I was a bratty little kid who thought deserved the world. When I realized how stupid of a way that was to think I decided why not try and making a background. How hard can it be? As a twitchy seven year old it was very hard but slowly I believe I have been getting better ever since; its either that or every time I ask for honest feedback people lie to me. Between then and now things have changed when it comes to making images. I went from paper to Microsoft paint, and finally way too many image editing programs to come up with something I feel looks good. 
    I must apologize though for my highschool level writing abilities and so if I jump around a lot and my writing just doesn't make sense then blame public school systems and my lysdexia. Strangely enough when tested for lysdexia I had high reading scores, and my math was crap. Somehow out of it though  I manage to put together fairly decent spoken word/poetry. Frankly I can't tell the difference between both so I wont pick the term for you you can do that. Here is an excerpt piece I did I think Ill leave it at that for my first post in the mean time Happy Holidays!


    What happened to the old TV?
    You know where I loved you and you loved me
    Where we were a happy family
    And not people getting punched in the face on MTV
    When facts roll most from comedy central
    Where is the straight talk express
    When all you are really doing is weaving around this mess?
    Now hey I know I am only 18
    With a slightly darker then normal complexion so people group me
    With the cocaine snorting Charlie Sheen’s
    But
    I know I am different
    Even if I am not the best
    All this hate in the world though is truly what I detest
    Trying to be the best of me
    When the rest of people look at me and see something
    Non-existent
    Some people judge me for what I am not
    And I know right now I am complaining because of what I don’t got
    But please world leave me a message after the beep
    Am I failing you world
    Or are you failing me?
    Do I need to stand stronger alone or rally people next to me? 
    Who will listen to the calls even though it might not be destiny? 

    I used to think the best of me would not be caught with poetry but on the scene of 93 could I expect the best of beats to be flowing from slam poetry, so I request that at best I be viewed with a smile and do not detest that where I plea and request where I take my liberty to speak, to address the poverty that riddles those around and close to me that you should not, mock me

    Intro

    This is a blog:

    Be nice to the blog. This is a blog about me putting up things I think look good which, when you have ADHD is generally colorful shiny things. Little bit of "art" or my doodles and a bit of "poetry" or whatever I feel like saying in a way that has some rhythm. If you have any questions or comments feel free to send them my way. Feedback is always encouraged, and Happy Holidays!
