Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Devious Journal Entryokay, i kinda have to say something....
some rumors have been going around that im homophobic (??) and i try to hide behind people, and im full of myself and that i hate you all and i manipulate you guys??????
im mean you can say what you want but let me tell you the real true me:
Hello, I am Emma i am 19 going on 20 in a few months. I am Pansexual (if you don't know what that is here is a link to the wiki page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pansexuality) I am super bad at talking to people because of my anxiety and claiming to have a disability is not my way of shutting you guys out, I'm trying i really REALLY hard at making friends and being more social and im going to start being more social with you guys from now on this popularity kinda snuck up on me and i really had nothing to say because i was so "socially retarded" is a good way to put it. I have faith in my art, i use it as a way of expressing myself and paying homage to my favorite subject: creepypasta. man do i love creepypa

Bronies go nuts, and Nintendo Sucks?Equestria Girls
The trailer to "Equestria Girls" (the humanized MLP spinoff film) finally was released today. Aaaannnd everyone's freaking out. Again.
You know, it actually looks pretty decent. Bronies... please understand: I know you're a major unexpected demographic for the show. I know you enjoy seeing shout-out's become canon within the show, and appreciate how the creators do little things here and there for you. But... the show isn't made for you. This is not Cartoon Network and the target demographic isn't 25 year olds in college. You're a nice addition to the target demographic of little girls, but you are not the driving force behind MLP.
I don't want this to sound mean, but it needs to be said. This is where it becomes very important to understand the fine line between being a fan of the show and thinking that because you've invested so much energy into the show that you're entitled to things.
I'm sure the movie won't be as bad as everyone makes it out to be. It honest

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

Advices for new Veggies

~Mad-DeeJones suggested to create a blog entry to provide advices about becoming a veggie.

If you want to share your stories and tips, comment here and they'll be added to this entry !

~AnotherYaoiFreak
You can also talk to a nutritionist ^^!
I talked to my doctor about it when I had stopped eating red meat and pork, at that time he was worried about my iron intake since it was low. After three sessions with a nutritionnist, I am now, able to eat properly without missing out on anything. It was 7 years ago though... But once a year I go in for bloodtests to make sure I am doing just fine ^^! People are there to help you just have to look for them =3!

by ~Dracir
take your time, make it step by step. The more recipes you try, experiment, like, the more you will get there(eating a raw apple is kind of a recipe...).
It toke me about half a eat to get from trying to have more vegies to not buying meat, (i do cheat once per month for fish).
I have now 6-7 books on vegan/vege and now 1 for raw diet.
Becoming vegan ([link] is a great book, explain a lot about what you have to watch out.

by ~zombryn
I can promise you that veganism and vegetarianism is EASY! I've lived my vegan life with no problems at all. To add to what I've already said - If you need a source of great and varied recipies then head over to Vegweb - www.vegweb.com
READ THE ENTIRE MESSAGE ON THE COMMENTS ABOVE !

My advice would be to just remember the cause. Health not only for you but animals world wide. There are so many meat substitues and to know you made a differance, can make a defferance. You've just got to keep a good mind and remember youre doing something big by doing something little. like ordering cheese pizza instead of pepperoni [:
If you're vegan, don't hesitate to ask a pizza with only vegetables and no cheese, they can do this, the customer is king, never forget it

If you want to change your diet to a vegetarian/vegan diet - take it slow and do plenty of research. Since your diet is changing it means that you'll need to find a new balance of vitamins, minerals, fats, proteins, carbs and fats in your meals. There are essential vitamins that you'll need such as B12 that can be found in yeast, soya and cereal products. Omega 3 is also very important and you can find that in flax seeds. Take things at your own pace and NEVER get upset or angry if you make a mistake along the way, how can you learn without mistakes?

Also, don't be too lazy and only live off fake meat products or quorn (if you're vegetarian). Not only are they expensive but some of them aren't that great for you. You can produce beautiful flavours from normal products and a few special vegan substitutes. If you want fake meat then buy yourself some wheat gluten and make seiten - £5 worth of wheat gluten can make 30 servings of faux meat - if you were to buy that amount in the shops premade it'd cost you maybe £150!!! Do yourself a favour and get into cooking from scratch, it's lots of fun.

Don't let other vegans/vegetarians impose their views on you. Some don't even agree with rescuing animals from shelters. If you do have animals do what is best for them, not yourself.

And to add to the first comment - make sure to check that the pizza dough is vegan too. Pizza Express in the UK can do vegan pizzas (minus the cheese) on certain crusts as can Pizza Hut. Failing that, save yourself the money and make an even better on with fake cheese at home

Oh, and even though some of what I said might sound daunting or difficult I can promise you that veganism and vegetarianism is EASY! I've lived my vegan life with no problems at all.
