A lot of cub artists were fleeing to Bluesky to just get banned immediately. Bastion and others tried to.

Trash.

I played the demo’s of PS1 and N64 when those systems were brand new (gawd I’m friggin’ old).

Played the demo of N64 at Wal-Mart (the games in the kiosk back then were Mario 64 and Zelda: Ocarina of Time)

Played the demo of PS1 at a K-Mart (the games in the kiosk were – hehe, Tail Concerto and Klonoa)

And there was another time I played a PS1 demo at a Sears that had “Sled Storm” and the thing I remember most about that game is that it had REAL SONGS as the soundtrack, so it had this one specific remix of Rob Zombie’s “DRAGULA” song.

This one ^.

And I played demo of the “Virtual Boy” in that same Sears when the VB was a brand new thing, and yes, the rumors were true, playing it gave you intense migraines… lol…

the ps1! i grew up with a few ps1 games, but what makes the ps1 my favorite is looking back on all the cool games i missed or good games that fell under the radar. stuff like tail concerto and klonoa are major inspirations for kemono! i’d even argue that tail concerto defined the kemono style/fanbase the most out of any piece of media. and there’s a lot of experimental titles like LSD: dream emulator or moon: remix RPG adventure that i love

I knew this would go downhill fast lol

I am still using Windows 10, so my particular install lacks support for .webp

I found a website that will do Batch Conversion, but you have to pay for “credits” lol….

It would only do 1 to 14 out of the 38 pages of the “Trouble” doujin comic

then says “you have ran out of credits.” LOL… if I want 15 to 38, I gotta buy more credits.

I still think this is a run for popularity, acceptance and validation. They need people to attack in order to appear to be righteous. Another enemy will be fabricated every time one enemy is defeated. This is never going to stop, unless people actually get a life and try to make themselves look virtuous by doing real virtuous things. Those people are losers who can’t raise their self-esteem without resorting to bashing others.

As you feel, I feel. I believe that the people who are against us want acceptance more than anything. They know it makes no sense to attack anybody for drawing things that do not exist. They just want to appear better than others and, thus, receive validation. It is virtue signalling.
Someone tried to cancel me before and it failed because I did not have a Twitter account. They knew me, knew where I was blogging and who I was online. But nothing at all came out of it, except for a boost in my popularity, because it is very difficult to cancel someone who is not in the same platform as you. Plus, my presences are not linked to each other, meaning that a thing that happens to one account does not affect the others, even if they do the same thing.

Yeah, if I ever figure out a way to do it in batches, I’ll let you know! Manually doing it is beyond painful lmfao

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck…. well, it’s great that MS Paint will do the conversion, but not great that I’ll be stuck doing this – page by page – for 38 entire pages…

Whoops forgot to log in, but there you go lmfao

It’s an image format that Google created - ostensibly to reduce image file sizes so that higher resolution images don’t gorge themselves on expensive server space, but it’s annoying as fuck because they still aren’t necessarily universally recognized and I run into problems like this from time to time where a piece of software I want to use just refuses to recognize them as anything but gibberish lol

Just use Paint. No, literally, I’m serious - just use Paint. I dunno’ why PS has such a hissy fit about them, but whenever I need to convert a webp over to something else I always just “Save As” in MS Paint to do it. Haven’t had an issue yet, even if that does mean I have to go in and manually re-save every individual image.

So I was gunna Upload and Tag all of the first “Trouble” comic by takagi kyou (高木喬) – I realized while looking at the old saved folder I snagged from Wildcritters almost a decade or more ago – it only goes up to 20 pages, I found an upload here that has all 38 pages of it (omfg, do I REALLY wanna sit here and tag and upload for 38 pages? Gawd damn!!!! I’ll go crazy!)

Well I ran into an unfortunate problem…. so even if I wanted to sit and do all that, I can’t do it anyway! The files in the Zip I downloaded from the link below are all in “.webp” format, and I have no idea what format that is. I tried opening it in Photoshop in the hopes that maybe - just maybe, it would know what format it is and I could convert them to PNG files one by one, but Photoshop just gives me an error when I try loading the files.

BlueSky can upload them and they show up as an actual picture there, but right now that is useless to me, cuz I just want to convert the files into PNG files…

……………………………………………………………….

What is the solution? Is there some way to Batch Convert a bunch of .webp files to .PNG files?

The entire fediverse is dumb and stupid. Period.

Yeah, I mean Twitter fucking sucks and it’s broken as shit thanks to Elon trying to turn it into his little Cash Crop (YOU HAVE TO PAY TO USE THE DM’S, THEY ARE A FINITE RESOURCE, YOU CAN RUN OUT THEM) and his other shady ass ideas, like putting features that used to be FREE behind a Pay Wall… and yeah, I get banned for slight infractions… but at least Twitter never really seemed to give a shit about Furry Cub or Shota Artwork… and Bsky going in this direction just makes me pissed off and disappointed…

I don’t understand starting twitter clones to just be worse than twitter…

I am tired of all this bullshit. Look, I spent hours and hours on my submissions to bluesky.. and what do they do. They ban me and label me a pd. It’s irritating and all garbage. I look at things like project 2025 and I see the future…

Yeah, they got me too. It’s all bullshit.

Bluesky is a social media platform that tries to be an “alternative to Twitter” – and for a while they were alright, back when they were still an “Invite Only” platform (to even be able to create an account, you needed an Invitation Code from a friend, this kept some of the Normie Bullshit out of the website). Eventually they opened the doors to the general public so that anyone can create an account, no “Invite” necessary. Normies flooded in and started bitching about “why so many furries?” (cuz we were some of the first to migrate to Bsky, thus naturally Bsky had already developed a pretty sizable Furry Population before the Normie Rush) and even worser still, Bsky started hiring “Fiction Equals Reality Freaks” as their Mod Staff… so now a platform that was once a safe place for Furry Kemono Cub and Human Shota Artwork has spun around and done a total 180…

Why does every fucking place on the internet eventually start doing this crap?
I will never understand the whole “Fiction Equals Reality” mindset…

I don’t give a flying shit about what the laws say in France or Canada or UK or Australia –

A fictional drawing is NOT comparable to actual factual CSEM (ch-ld s-xual ab-se material) of a REAL PERSON WHO ACTUALLY EXISTS IN REAL LIFE… to take something as serious as that – and compare it to cartoon drawings of Sonic and Tails screwing – makes zero fucking sense (and it’s also demoralizing and belittling to actual CSA victims like myself)… But that is the world we live in today, apparently.

Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Artistic Expression is evaporating faster than water on a hot sidewalk during a summer day in triple digit weather (Fahrenheit, dammit! Wtf is Celsius? I’m an American, we use F not C on our thermometers!).

People seem to think that drawing something on paper is the exact same as doing it in real life, or that if you draw it on paper, you wanna do it for realzies.. I personally don’t think that’s the case, I don’t think Fictional Artwork has the magical subliminal power to make you go out and do shit you weren’t ALREADY considering doing… and on the offchance that some idiot DOES go that far, here’s a wild idea! – Let’s try to keep the blame strictly on the person who did the crime, and not whatever drawings he was looking at and the artist who made them!!!!

It’s like the whole “Satanic Panic” against Dungeons N’ Dragons back in the 1980s. I’m pretty sure DND didn’t MAKE anybody do anything, but it was an easy scapegoat, just like Rock Music and Rap Music, so it got the blame…

If someone reads the Sheath & Knife comic series, and they go out and S.A. somebody, I don’t think it’s fair to put the blame on Harmarist for that… the art and the artist didn’t MAKE that person do those things, he chose that himself.

Banning the artwork and punishing the artist with jail time or legal fines for something imaginary that they drew with a pencil isn’t going to do a gawd damn thing to stop Real Life Crimes, and it doesn’t help the Victims… The only thing it does is make some grouchy Twitter Dork feel like they’re “making a difference in the world” when they really aren’t. You aren’t doing JACK DIDDLY SHIT to help real life victims of CSA, you’re just being a big dumb annoying Fiction Cop about someone else’s art… trying to apply Real World Morality to cartoon p0rn… it’s stupid. It helps no one.

I’m disappointed as hell to see Bsky going in such a stupid direction, but I’m not surprised…

The artistic spaces for Cub Furry and Feral Furry are vanishing at a rapid rate, every other country besides the United States has stupid ass laws on the books that make it so that if you draw anything the government doesn’t like – you go to jail… regardless of whether or not you’ve ever actually done anything IRL. It’s fucking crazy… downright scary too.

Their Mods using the word “problematic” is already a bad sign to me…

I mean… Who even USES that word besides Tumblr / Twitter People?

“Breaking The Law” by posting fictional cartoon drawings?

Pffff, hahahahaha…. fuck off.

Y’all were fine with it 4 months ago, why the sudden change?

….

It doesn’t matter even if you “age up” the character because SOME weirdo dipshit will try to create some bullshit reason to cancel you for it anyway.

The best thing a furry artist can do – is to just NOT GIVE A FUCK IN THE FIRST PLACE…

It’s only a drawing… of a fictional character… there are more important things to worry about….

>>>> https://ibb.co/Gvz3NQp <<<<

None of these fictional characters NEED to be “protected” because they’re not Real People.

Tails The Fox, Klonoa, Ralsei, Asriel, Kit Cloudkicker, Buster Bunny – THEY’RE NOT REAL PEOPLE.

They aren’t going to thank you or reward you for “protecting them” from being drawn lewd art of.

>>>> https://ibb.co/zb35z19 <<<<

One of the most ridiculous cases was this gay mouse who drew super cute cub boys and then married a woman who hates cub and he immediately nukes his older art and claims his new art is non-cub while drawing Asriel lol. From based to hypocrite in a matter of months.

god this is so real LMAOOOOOOO it really hurts my heart when people fold like buddy u were doing nothing wrong pls have faith in yourself you are fine these people are fucking crazy not you

the super nintendo was what I remember most from my childhood!!!!!!! tho I wasn’t born yet I had older brothers so its what was around :3

I totally forgot to include “Contemporary Pop Music” in the poll, lol….

Does this count?

I guess it isn’t technically “Pop” perse, but it is contemporary.

………………………………………

I also like “Neo Soul” such as Pale Jay.

………………………………………

And for whatever weird reason I actually like Melanie Martinez.

This is totally outside of my usual scope, but… I like it and I dunno why.

voted for secret of mana it holds a very special place in my heart for all the hours I played with my brother! I was popoi always !!!!!!!!!!! But ff3 is also special to me for similar reasons tho we couldn’t really play together

Not sure where I should vote if I’m a pop music troll at heart Xbbbbbb Lady Gaga, Ke$ha, girl in red, montaigne…. but I do listen to a bit of everything! everything from lil nas x to frankie valli and the 4 seasons to eqypt central lmaoooo
