A happy roadside rescue SUCCESS story...To clear the air of the sad one I just got out of my system.
I remember once I was on my way to work, and I saw a turtle start to make its way across the roadside. He was REALLY TEARIN' IT UP for a turtle. xD I didn't even know they could move that fast. Its chubby turtle feet were flying. But I was already past it! I was trying to think of what to do, should I turn around?
I looked in the rear-view mirror and a truck was coming. D: As I watched, the truck started to turn TOWARDS the turtle, and I'm thinking, oh my god, this jerk is trying to kill it! ...But after angling his truck a bit to make sure no cars could pass, the HUGE, MANLY TRUCK DRIVER hops out of the cabin, runs over to the turtle, grabs it like a football, and tears off across the road into the woods to let it go.
So many people don't even bother to stop for animals on their way to work, but not only did he stop, but he personally escorted it

A joke is not even necessary hereI just caught my fat ass cat eating all my lasagna.
Update:
Any humor found in this was nullified when shortly thereafter, she vomited on my rug.

A Tech Demo is NOT a game in productionAlternate title: "No, Square is not remaking Final Fantasy VII for the PS3".
If a clip is labeled "Tech Demo", it is NOT a game in production.  The purpose of a tech demo is to showcase the processing power and graphical capabilities of a system.  A lot of the time, real franchises are used in tech demos - Mario, Zelda, Final Fantasy - but these "snippets" of games are NOT examples of actual games in production.  They are "mock" games, or VERY short 'games', created for the sole purpose of making a console ACT like it is running a game.  Using known franchises just helps to get your attention.
This isn't to say that a Tech Demo might not later BECOME a game, and there's usually a lot of talk that they will.  But honestly, I can't even remember a time when it has. xD  And I've been here a while.
Actual games in production are showcased as such, and are NOT called "tech demos".  Once you know that, it's easy to tell th

omfg I love KH:3DSYeah I'm at like the first world (actually the second, I skipped the first, oops) and I already know this is like...probably my favorite Kingdom Hearts since the first.
I don't even know what the story is this time.
Something about...Yen Sid...blah blah blah I have a keyblade...blah blah blah Riku's haircut sucks.
So why do I like it so much?
Well, for one thing, I love virtual pets.
Ever since I got my first Tamagotchi in '97, I've been obsessed with the idea of raising and caring for electronic pets. I get very attached to them, too. I name them. I love them. Not as much as my real pets by a long shot, but a great deal more than I probably should.
And for another thing, I love Sora. He's one of my favorite video game characters, which is QUITE a feat for him, trust me. I see a lot of me in him - we're both a little on the stupid side, definitely a wee bit naive, and I also grew up on a beach (technically, an island, actually!) xD
And now Sora has virtual pets.
My life?
Complete.
I do

GameStop employees are heroes.OK I still have qualms with GameStop corprate, but GameStop employees are officially heroes and I love them.
So I went to GameStop for a Kid Icarus event with ~Eneko and his boyfriend, and while I was there I bought Doctor Lautrec because they had it used. Then we left and went down the road to Taco Bell. Out in the parking lot someone called to us. It was a GameStop employee. He had my wallet! My stupid ass left it on the counter!
So this dude got in his car and followed us all the way to Taco Bell to return it to me. I was so happy and I felt so good about humanity. And also stupid for forgetting my wallet. xD
BUT YES. HEROES DO EXIST!

Thought for the day…"You'll catch crap no matter what sort of net you throw out."
This applies to a lot of people, but I made it up for an artist friend, and I think it's important to remember. Not everyone will like what you draw or write. So, you might as well do what you like.

They even find me out here...Skinny black cat, starving to death, found me even out in the mountains.
We gave it water, then fed it plain chicken and some of Anna's rat vegetable pellets (my dad insisted), I don't even think it chewed.  Tomorrow we'll buy some real cat food for it.
It's super ridiculously friendly, it pretty much leapt into my arms, meowing its face off for food.
Not sure what will happen to it in the end...if Nana will keep it, or maybe I'll bring it home for ~rhaego.  Or maybe bring it to a shelter.
It clearly has no home here -- Nana has like no neighbors anymore, and when it found us, it went ballistic, like, HUMANS OMG FOOD PLZ. xD
And...now that we've fed it...it won't go away. xD
So, I'll figure it out.
Update: As I was typing, dad said if I take it to the vet tomorrow, we can let it in.  It's at the door, sobbing in misery and wanting attention, the poor thing.
I hope...if that happens, they'll help me with the bill at least.  -_-
He's adorable t

Full "Fandom Victims" RantMoved from this stamp since it's way too tl;dr: http://genkistamps.deviantart.com/art/Fandom-Victims-154937769
OMG EVERYONE IS SOOOOO MEAN TO TWILIGHT/HETALIA/FURRY/YAOI FANS! WE'RE JUST THE INNOCENT VICTIMS!
Oh fuck no you're not. The first two and the fourth listed are probably the least innocent and the third is just stupid. Yes, I'm calling my own fandom stupid.
Twilight and Hetalia: If your fans weren't so batshit crazy and attacked the fuck out of people who don't like it, MAYBE PEOPLE WOULD RESPECT YOU MORE. I'm sure there are reasonable fans, I'm friends with several. But you can't just blame all the shit you get on how omgmeen others are. You have to accept the responsibility of being a fandom known for housing fucking insane fans.
You know I get at least one comment, e-mail, or note every three days or so from one of these two fandoms either screaming at me for not liking it, screaming at me for spreading the hate, or both? Yeah.

Homophobia Needs to Stop

March 27th

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we

What is this.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k_eXfgGLjU
I can't stop watching this.
...But what the hell is it?
All I know is, Tifa punched a snake in the face and it died.

Neverland foreverCome fly with me, to never land,
And we can stay forever.
Life on earth is rather bland.
And we can leave whenever.

We must leave soon though,
I'm nearly dead.
It's childish, I know.
A dream made up into my head;

Where pirates roam,
And faries tink.
And a lost boy's home,
Where I wont sink.

"First star to the right-"
Of course it'll take time.
And then to my delight,
I'll go and make you mine.

We'll make it there, I promise,
But however;
If something goes amiss.
I'll always love you, neverland forever.

I saw Hugo!....And I loved it!
I was a little afraid, I'll admit, that they were going to add too much "silliness", like they do to EVERY KID'S MOVIE BASED ON A BOOK*, but for the most part, they kept it pretty serious/artistic, which worked well as a movie adaptation of that book.  The only "silliness" added was that they turned the station inspector into kind of a funny character, but I already knew that was going to happen because of the ads.
But really, even if you haven't read the book, or have no intention to (it's very, VERY short, and if you're into artwork, it has a nice surprise to how its written), see this movie.  It's beautiful.
Oh, and the man the book/movie is built around, Georges Méliès, was a real dude -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georges_M%C3%A9li%C3%A8s -- which is pretty damn cool.
...After we finished watching the movie, I went crazy looking for the soundtrack in a bunch of stores, but it seems like CDs don't like...exist anymore.

I definitely just got tagged. o.eBy :iconsailorvulpix:
Rules:
1) You must post these rules!

3) You must find 10 people to tag. Post their icons in your journal.
4) Go to their page and tell her/him they have been tagged.
5) No tag backs.
6) No crud in the tagging section like "you are tagged if you read this." You legitimately have to tag 10 people.

Well, here are my answers:
1) What do you spend more time on; Video games, or the computer?
Well, I do spend a lot of time on the computer. Although I would spend all my time playing LoZ Phantom Hourglass if I could. That's probably why I actually play it less.
2) This is specifically for My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fans; If you could be a pony, what kind would you prefer; An earth pony, a Pegasus, a unicorn, or an alicorn?
Ooh. I love this question. Most definitely an alicorn.
3) Have you ever been to Walt Disney World, Florida?
Never. :juggl

Most innacurate dream everI had a dream last night that I was in GameStop, and I found a copy of Sonic the Hedgehog for the Nintendo Entertainment System, produced by Sony, and autographed by Hideo Kojima.
I bought it, of course.

Journal Entry: Sun Aug 26, 2012, 10:52 AM

Mood: Neutral
Watching: Bizarre Foods
Playing: Theatrhythm Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts 3DS

...There is a re-release of the original "The World Ends with You" (originally a DS game, this time I'll explain things for everyone who is confused) coming to the iPad in August.

You knew that already if you've been reading my stupid, scatterbrained journals about this.

But rumor has it there's more to come, and while I don't usually take stock in rumors, this would make sense. You don't create all this hype just for a remake on a new platform. In fact, I'm including that as potential hype for something to come.

But if you repeat this to anyone, remember to preface it with, "I heard this from some idiot on the internet"
Because that's all I am. xD

Now, while we're on this subject, I've been doing some thinking, and actually...

...listen close here because you won't hear me say this very often...

I'm actually proud of Square for all of this.

Hear me out.
The World Ends with You, or as I fondly and lazily call it, "TWEWY", was obviously more a work of passion than anything else. This was a brand new title with brand new characters, and a BRAND NEW style of gameplay -- all of these elements are a risk for Square. I originally fell in love with the game because although the story was completely awesome, it wasn't more important or better than the gameplay. Usually, Square games have pretty generic gameplay, but sell it with their stories/cinematics. For once, I was pleased by BOTH elements...seriously, I never expected Square was capable of doing that. xD

I was pissed it didn't sell well.
As a game*, it was better and more interesting than Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy, which sell like there's no damn tomorrow.
Square did EVERYTHING RIGHT FOR ONCE, and they didn't get the reaction they deserved for trying something new, and succeeding at it.
^{*Game, not story. Learn the difference, or gtfo.}

Well anyway, that brings us to why I'm proud of them. The game didn't sell well, and does not have a huge, clamoring fanbase like Kingdom Hearts or Final Fantasy.

But they are trying to sell it anyway.
Why? Well hopefully it's because the game means something to them.
If it didn't, they'd go, "oh shit that didn't sell QUICK MAKE MORE KINGDOM HEARTS"

But they didn't give up on it.
They are insisting that people give a shit about TWEWY, and I'm all for it, because damn, TWEWY is a good game.

So good on you Square.
For once, I'm with you on something, and I wish you the best of luck.

But still.
I know where you live.
Ruin TWEWY, and I assure you,
you will regret it.

Square is so busted because of this. But I'm pretty sure It's a good game no matter that I've never heard about her and never play her.

~LogicallyFlawed Aug 29, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

But... they DID panic and release a new kingdom hearts, AND final fantasy XIII-MMMXXXII or whatever it is now.

I still agree with what you say about dodging the sequel bullet though

*Nyaasu Aug 29, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

LOL Yeah, I forgot to add, "MAKE MORE KH, AND FORGET TWEWY EVER HAPPENED!" xD

Oh yeah, sequels are iffy. Sometimes I want them, and sometimes I'm not sure if there should be any. xD

~LogicallyFlawed Sep 4, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

Perfect example: Sly Cooper 4. I REALLY REALLY REALLY want more Sly Cooper, but it's being made by Sanzaru, not Sucker Punch... *sigh* I know I'm gonna buy it anyway, I'm Sly's bitch (in a non-sexual way!)

*Nyaasu Sep 4, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Ooohhh, a studio switch? That can sometimes be the best thing that happened to a game....and sometimes the EXACT OPPOSITE. xD

~LogicallyFlawed Sep 6, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

Words cannot describe just how much I want Sly Cooper to be a success. The original games are underrated beyond measure D: Sly 2 is one of the best PS2 games of all time.

*gwengryffindor Aug 28, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

I found it, and it's $17.99, but apparently, according to reviews, no go for the iPod 4th gen., which is what I have

*Nyaasu Aug 29, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Sorry...that sucks. D:

*gwengryffindor Aug 30, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

lol it's cool

don't wanna get addicted right before school starts.

I agree with this journal 100%.
Especially that last bit. c;
