Who's into crypto mining?
Posted 3 years agoJust curious. I've been mining on my gaming computer for a while but I'm now in the process of building a cyrpto mining rig. Got a MSI Tomahawk motherboard with six pci-e slots with a cheap celeron, Thermaltake 1500w 80 gold psu, I've collected some 8gb RX580s and GTX1080s which I expect will do about $600/month mining BTC and Ethereum. I'm spending about $2k on hardware so the break even point is about 3.5 months. I'd really like some 3060s for mining but with the current hardware market you practically have to sell an organ for a 30 series. As it is I paid more than they're actually worth for every GPU I'll be running. Gotta spend it to make it and all that, by summer the machine will have broken even and started making money.

Posted 3 years agoAnyone else think this shit is absolutely hilarious? I bought GME, BBBY, and NOK. We've seen a huge transfer of wealth from Wall Street to Main Street in the last few days orchestrated by the r/wallstreetbets folks, with no government gun involved. This is a kind of revolutionary action that is 100% legal and doesn't involve looting, burning, or violence and it is glorious. Don't piss off large groups of nerds.
Wall Street elites: Why are you doing this, do you want to crash the economy??
Us: Power to the players, bitch.

Dog cancer update
Posted 4 years agoYesterday Dakota had surgery to have the three tumors the vet found removed. Everything went well, she's home now and hopefully cancer free. She's sore and doesn't like the cone of shame but everything should be back to normal in a couple weeks.
The end of the US?
Posted 4 years agoI've refrained from making political journals here because that's not what this site is about but this situation in the US is extremely dangerous. The capitol hasn't been breached since 1814. #civilwar is trending on Twitter. This is ultimately a much bigger issue than who's president. This election is just a catalyst. The political and cultural divide has been getting steadily wider over the last several years and it has finally reached breaking point. This country is splitting in two and people on both sides are angry and ready for blood. Those of us who just want to be left alone to live our lives won't be able to ignore this situation forever. When roughly half a nation's people view the president as illegitimate, where does that leave us? The logical conclusion of recent events only takes us one place. A few years ago I never realistically thought I would live to see the end of my country. I'm fairly well supplied for a shit hitting the fan scenario but I never really expected something of this magnitude to occur. Not to mention the possibility that a civil war in the US could domino into international conflict. Even if we're not witnessing the end of the US, it will be forever changed after this. These events will be read about in history books someday.
What a time to be alive. Be careful everyone.

My dog has cancer :(
Posted 4 years agoThings were going too well the last couple months. I've succeeded in quitting cigarettes, works been busy and I've been able to save and recently paid off two credit cards. 2020 just had to get one more hit in apparently. Found out today that my pibble rescue Dakota has cancer. Vet found 3 tumors that will have to be surgically removed. They're small, and she will probably be ok, but the surgery will cost thousands. Could use some positive energy right now. Sigh
Again with the turning photos upside down
Posted 4 years agoI'm trying to upload a photo of my dogs and it keeps turning the picture upside down. I remember having this problem posting photos to fa years ago but I would've thought it would be resolved by now. Grrrr
Who does telegram stickers?
Posted 4 years agoAs the title says. I wanna get a Kalak sticker pack made.
Hello
Posted 4 years agoBeen a while, I have to wonder how many people are still following me here. Buuuut I've been banned from Facebook so I'll be more active here again, at least til civil war 2.0 kicks off and it's time to go innawoods.
So. What's new with you? Anyone wanting to get arts together?

Having a hard time accepting that I'm turning 30 this year
Posted 6 years agoI'm legit having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that my 30th bd is in about four months.
Idk if it's because I expected to be further toward my goals by this age, or because I don't exactly take good care of my body. Some combination of the two. I'm decently strong and a healthy weight but between smoking and usually eating junk, statistically truck drivers' avg lifespan is ten years shorter than average, and the combination of high stress and large amounts of caffeine can't be good for my heart. Realistically my life is probably half over if not more.

I'm not dead yet lol
Posted 6 years agoI doubt many of you are still paying attention to my page as inactive as I've been here the last few years, but I'm still alive. Just busy as fuck these days between dealing with financial stuff and various car projects and working on fixing up my house. Currently rebuilding a 97 Dakota, working on a new engine for my Regal, and restoring a 76 Torino. Regals new setup should be good for 11s when I get it back on the road. I'm aiming for it to see a dyno next spring. I don't visit FA nearly as often as I used to anymore, but I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm still here. I do still intend to have Kalak made into a fursuit someday. Hmu on telegram (@KalakManey) or facebook if you want a more reliable way to stay in touch.

Need 2 or 3 characters for zombies pt 2
Posted 7 years agoSo I'm planning a sequel to this by the same artist
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12782258/
Only two original characters aside from myself responded. So if this one is going to be as epic I need two or three new characters. You would be riding in a Duece, in a small group that heard our shots and came to pick up survivors.
Comment refs and weapon of choice. Three new characters max.

MFF
Posted 7 years agoOh yeah MFF reg paid finally. I kept forgetting. So I will be there. Who am I seeing? This MFF will either make or break my opinion of attending cons. My first MFF was a waste of time and the last couple I had fun but I was with my ex so always had people to hang out with there. If people ditch me again like at MFF'14 I'll just go home. But I know more people now so I dont expect it will go that way again.
If I'm actually reviving Kalak...
Posted 7 years agoI'm definitely going to need to start getting some new arts. Its been way too long. I've been trying to find the motivation to become active in the fandom again. Get back to commissioning art and maybe even have Kalak made into a fursuit. I still consider myself a furry. Life has just been so hectic these last few years. Ugh.
Hi there, its been a while
Posted 8 years agoHey everyone. I'm still alive. Back in November of last year my relationship came to an ugly end. I needed some time to get my shit together. In December I bought a house and started the long process of putting my life back together. Arlyn was sold, as it was just a reminder of a time in my life I was trying to forget. I moved all arlyn related submissions to scraps because for some reason FA wouldn't give me the delete option in submission management. Its been a hard year but I'm back on track now. I'm working 6 days a week still driving trucks, hauling steel. My computer business is going online very soon. My house is an ongoing fixer upper project on a nice half acre lot with big trees. My racecar will be back on the road next summer with a brand new build, shooting for high 11s on good tires. Anyway, I just wanted to let anyone who might be listening know that I am alive and I've reactivated this account. I'm going to try to slowly become active again.
Tl;dr- I'm still alive, single again, Kalak is back, Arlyn is gone, life has been tough recently but its getting better.

Update Attn fursuiters...help me with a couple ideas?
Posted 9 years agoI want to start taking some more photos of my suit and find things to do in it. The problem is, I don't really have people to suit with where I live or even a reliable photographer. Theres only so many poses I can take selfies in with my phone. Life has been too busy for cons and probably will be in 2016 too. Ideas?
As far as my life. I'm single again. We broke up a few weeks ago and I bought a small house that needs some work. Busy adulting. Adulting is bullshit lol. I hope everyone is well.

Posted 9 years agoScratch this journal. I cant figure out the new UI on mobile :-/
I'm still alive, I swear
Posted 9 years agoLife insists on kicking my ass at every opportunity but I'm still here! Just too busy for anything but being busy, lol. I'm going to Monster Energy Aftershock in October in Sacramento, then of course MFF in December and Fur2 in February.
Hope everyone is well.
Hope everyone is well.
So many submisions...
Posted 9 years agoI'm trying to get caught up. I've gone through over 10k already and that was after nuking over 20k. Why does life have to keep me from being as active here as I used to be :(
I'm not gay, but...
Posted 9 years agoHai new (and old) watchers!
Posted 9 years agoI'm not sure why so many new people are watching me all of the sudden but thanks everyfur! ^_^

FA keeps turning my photos sideways
Posted 9 years agoEvery time I try to upload a photo FA turns it sideways regardless of how I orient it on my computer before uploading. How do I fix this?
*squeeee* :D

dancers?
Posted 10 years agoSo I've been watching fursuit dancing and dance comp videos and I'm casually toying with the idea of trying to learn to dance when I get mine, just because it looks like fun. Even though I'll probably just make a fool of myself.
Any experienced dancers care to share thoughts or tips?
