It's been a crazy long yet fast year and I'm glad to have lived it! Despite all the ups and downs as well as mental healths issues so many blessings have happened this year. I've learned so much, had amazing opportunities, and met fantastic people. I can only hope to keep growing as 2023 dawns.

This year was also Gravity Falls' 10th anniversary from when it very first aired, and that was a special occasion to witness! Not to mention Shion Takeuchi's Inside Job part 2 releasing.

I recently tried new shows (Amphibia, The Owl House, Rick and Morty) and I'm already in love. I can't wait to see what journeys they take me on.

I have developments in my personal life that will also take me on new adventures and I'm excited to share my fictional stories via Tumblr, AO3, DeviantArt, etc.

I wish you all a happy new year! HAPPY 2023!!!

How to Stay Motivated: Words of Encouragement and Inspiration

Motivation is what drives us to achieve our goals and aspirations. However, staying motivated is not always easy, and sometimes we need a little encouragement to keep us going. In this article, we will explore various words of encouragement and inspiration to help you stay motivated and achieve your dreams.

What is Motivation?

Motivation is the driving force that enables individuals to achieve their goals. It is what keeps us focused and driven to succeed despite obstacles and setbacks. Motivation can come from internal or external factors, and it can be influenced by various psychological and environmental factors.

Motivation is essential for achieving success in any area of life. Without motivation, it is easy to become discouraged and give up on our goals. Motivation helps us to overcome challenges, stay focused on our objectives, and achieve our full potential.

Words of Encouragement

Words of encouragement are powerful tools for boosting motivation and confidence. They can provide individuals with the inspiration they need to stay on track and pursue their goals. Here are some powerful words of encouragement that can help you stay motivated:

★★★ HAPPY 10TH ANNIVERSARY! ★★★

It’s that special time of year, folks–time for our annual TAU ficathon! But, what’s this… we’re turning 10 this year? That’s a milestone if I’ve ever heard one!

To celebrate, we’re going to offer a couple extras this year… we’ve got contests, raffles, and prizes! Here’s a quick peek at what’s going down this eventful birthday of ours:

Fanfic contest (with prizes!)

Fanart contest (with prizes!)

Three raffles!

Alcor charm preorder!

Here’s what the schedule is going to look like:

October 5th: Fanfic and fanart contests open! Alcor charm pre-orders open!

November 2nd: Alcor charm pre-order close + payment deadline

December 14th: Contest submissions close

December 21st: Contest winners and raffle winners announcements

Click the read more to see all the details of these events!

★ Fanfic contest ★

→ Submit your fic to the fanfic contest here! ← 

This time, you can submit your ficathon fic into a contest for some fun prizes!

The winner will receive:

An Alcor charm (free including shipping)

Their fic featured in the “Introduction to TAU” page soon to be unveiled

Art for their fic, drawn by TAU creator Zillychu

Bragging rights! 

Unlike the usual ficathon though, there is a theme all contestants will need to follow. 

☆☆☆ The theme for this contest is: Introduction to TAU! ☆☆☆

This means your fic can be read by anyone who has no prior knowledge of TAU, or even Gravity Falls! It also means you need to give the reader a taste of what TAU is all about – this includes:

Something that explains the Transcendence (or at least shows the reader that the supernatural is now commonplace – this can be achieved anywhere from a single sentence, to a major plot point)

Alcor’s general predicament of being a human-turned-immortal-demon (could be in conversation, or in the general narrative. Does not need to go into detail on the events that lead up to this, but it can!)

At least one familiar or common theme abundant in this AU, which includes but isn’t limited to: 

Family (however it’s defined), friendship, and platonic love

Finding joy amidst grief, hope despite loss

Demonology and eldritch terrors

Supernatural politics and how they fit into the mundane

The existential horror of being a human turned semi-omnipotent immortal demon who must fight the demonic desire for chaos vs. the human desire to pack bond with everything!

A wonderful example of this includes Mod K’s series Bentley & Friends! The story plants you in the center of the TAU world through the eyes of a character named Bentley, and slowly unveils the setting through his perspective. Bentley himself is familiar with a post-Transcendence world and Alcor’s reputation, but only comes to learn the truth about him and Mizar through ensuing shenanigans. 

Another example would be MaryPSue’s Return, Rewind, Rewrite, which starts with an emotional demon summoning, and follows characters who find they're more closely linked to the Transcendence than they expected. Remember: Showcasing the story of TAU through narratives and character interactions is always better than simply giving the reader a summary! 

Please note that there is no word minimum. Longer fics will generally leave a better impression on the mods, but quality will always trump quantity. 

Here’s a list of all the prerequisites for your fic when entering the fanfic contest:

Only one entry per person

Adheres to the contest theme

Only new work created after this announcement post (or within a month if tagged as anniversary content) will be accepted!

Is rated G to M (no explicit sexual content please!)

No word minimum

Is submitted via the Google form by December 14th

OCs are welcome, so long as the theme is met and the story is easily distinguished as TAU-related

If you end up winning the contest, we will reach out to you for your name and address so we can send you your charm!

If you win the contest and you elect not to receive a charm, we will award the free charm to the runner-up.

★ Fanart contest ★

→ Submit your art to the fanart contest here! ← 

Not much of a writer, but still want to join in the festivities? Perhaps you’d like to write and do a little something extra?

Here’s a list of all the prerequisites for entering the fanart contest:

Only one entry per person

ANY art (that isn’t fanfic) is accepted! Illustration, mixed media, animations, emojis, music… if you create it, you can enter it!

Only new work created after this announcement post (or within a month if tagged as anniversary content) will be accepted!

No explicit sexual content

Is submitted via the Google form by December 14th

OCs are welcome, so long as it’s easily distinguished as TAU-related

★ Raffles ★

→ Click here to enter the TAU fan appreciation raffle! ← 

While the mods of the TAU blog will be picking winning contest entries, we’d like everyone participating to have a chance to win a free charm, as well as fans who have created fan content in the past!

There will be a total of 3 raffles:

If you enter the fanfic contest, you will be automatically entered in the fanfic raffle!

If you enter the fanart contest, you will be automatically entered in the fanart raffle!

Yes, that means if you enter both the fanfic and fanart contest, you will be entered twice! If you apply to the TAU fan appreciation raffle, you'll be entered three times!

The TAU fan appreciation raffle is open to everyone who has created at least one piece of fan content in the past! You will need to enter this raffle manually, and share a link to something you created in the past (must be something with a timestamp, like a blog post or AO3 link). 

☆☆☆ If you pre-order a charm and end up winning a raffle, we will refund you on Paypal for the full amount.

☆☆☆ Only one charm will be awarded per person. If you win one raffle, you cannot win in the others. 

★ Alcor charm pre-orders ★

→ Click here to pre-order your Alcor charm! ←

Want to ensure you still get a charm whether or not you win a contest or raffle? Go ahead and pre-order yours!

Price: $15

(includes shipping inside USA, additional shipping fees for international)

Note that since this is something Zilly wants to do in appreciation for the TAU community, the price listed is purely production price. This will cover the cost of the charm, and shipping. If you live outside the USA, we will calculate your shipping separately and disclose this in the Paypal invoice. If the price exceeds your expectations, you are welcome to refuse/cancel the invoice.

Your invoice must be paid by November 2nd! (We need to know how many charms to order!)

The charms will be sent in early January – We will do the contest winners and raffles first, so if you pre-order and then win one of the contests or raffles, your invoice will be canceled and you will be sent a charm at no cost. 

Here’s what you need to do to preorder an Alcor charm:

Fill out the following Google form (You will need to share your Paypal email! Make sure your name and address in your Paypal is correct, as we will be using that to ship your charm)

Wait for us to send you an invoice in Paypal

Complete payment of your Paypal invoice by November 2nd

Estimated delivery date will be January 2025!

★ And now... the true stars of our AU ★

That's everything for this year's celebration! But now, if you'll let me get a little emotional... I'd like to thank the heart and soul of the Transcendence AU:

You.

To all the fans of TAU, new and old. To everyone who spent years active in the fandom, to everyone who even briefly enjoyed TAU content in passing. To everyone who created fanfic and fanart, to those who created music and animated MAPs, to those who organized events and meet-ups, to everyone who reblogged and liked posts made by the TAU blog or any of TAU's wonderful fans.

Thank you. You created this AU. You created something more than an idea. You created a community. Without you, none of this would have been possible.

From the bottom of my little rat heart, I love you all. From all the mods of the TAU blog, we thank you! Here's to another ten wonderful years!

10 YEARS OF BILL CIPHER ZINE

Ten years ago, Gravity Falls released Dreamscaperers, marking the first ever appearance of our favorite satanic triangle, Bill Cipher! And what a lasting impact he had on Tumblr. From memes to thirst to his status as a Tumblr Sexyman and all the unique humanizations, it’s the 10th anniversary of Bill Cipher being unleashed upon our Earth.

To celebrate, let’s create a fanzine in his honor! Artists, writers and merch creators are invited to celebrate Bill Cipher as a creator! The application will be open for 2 months, meaning it will close on October 31, 2023. Happy creating, and I can’t wait to see your pieces!

Be sure to reblog this post so it can get more views and more applications. The more the merrier.

Feel free to ask questions! My main account is @wolxoltl if you also want to ask me questions there!

today is bill cipher’s 10th anniversary of introduction make sure to tell him happy birthday

💫: What do you mean, you don't know?? How can you not know your own BIRTHDAY!

⚠️: Emergence day!

💫: Whatever.

⚠️: It was a trillion years ago in another dimension on a calendar system that ceased to exist before your universe began! Throw in time travel and relativity and I have no idea what the date would be on your calendar!

💫: Well... do you want to celebrate it on any specific day?

⚠️: Not really!

💫: Hmm...

⚠️: Kid, I'm flattered by the edible effigy, but what's the occasion?

💫: Since you don't have a birthday, I thought we could celebrate it on the day we met you! It was that or the day you physically came to Gravity Falls, but I thought this anniversary was less traumatic for everybody.

⚠️: Oh.

💫: What do you think? Do you like it?

⚠️: You're a few days early, though.

💫: It's close enough!

[thebookofbill]

It’s finally the 10th anniversary of one of my favorite Gravity Falls episodes, Dreamscaperers!

Happy birthday, Bill Cipher! Have some confetti and a party, weirdo 💛

HAPPY SUMMERWEEN!

This year, continuing the GF 10th Anniversary celebrations, I decided to do a kind of tribute to some of the show’s minor characters through the group’s Summerween costume choices!  I’d be surprised if you can’t guess all of these, but I’ll put the key below a read-more below.

Also, bonus:

Of course, it’s not just the 10th Anniversary of Gravity Falls -- it’s Stan and Ford’s birthday, as well! Despite that other project monopolizing my time, I didn’t want to miss doing a piece for this occasion.   So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our favorite grunkles!  Here, a return to Glass Shard Beach; and wearing their kid outfits, for good measure.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DIPPER & MABEL!

While the Star Twins are turning 23 this year (2022), this time I’m going back into the past for a birthday not too long after the show’s end. 

I have always liked the idea of Stan and Ford taking the kids to see Glass Shard Beach.  (And this piece has another purpose that will be revealed in time.)  Here they’re enjoying the boardwalk and the Amusement Pier, playing some carnival games (Stan: “Remember: aim at the carnie’s head!”  Ford: “Not with DARTS, Stanley!”)  Somebody has already won a huge plush Jersey Devil for Mabel.  (I want one!)

(Most of this was reffed from the amusements at Casino Pier in Seaside Heights, NJ; which I think is probably one of the inspirations for Glass Shard Beach and its pier.)

🎵💿 discography tag 💿🎵

So I was tagged by @i-me-mine (thanks for the tag, lovely!! 💖)

Rules: pick an artist or a band and share your favorite song from each of their albums, then tag some mutuals!

My chosen band is, of course, McFly (no surprises there then) but I’m excluding their greatest hits album, their anthology tour ablum and their 10th anniversary albert hall album and just going for studio albums (if that makes sense??)

Edit:This was Legitimately one of the hardest things I’ve had to do lmaoooo I love their music so much that it’s basically a part of my personality.

tagging @faerysbloom @unlimiteddream90 @bookshelfdreams @the-odd-aardvadillo @medlilove (no pressure to do this though!!)

I’m putting this under a read more because I feel like this might run a little long??

Album:Room On The Third Floor (2004), Song:Five Colours in Her Hair

🎶She was all I thought about

this was a tough one to choose, because I like a lot of the songs on that album but this is the first ever song I heard from them when I was a kid that got me into their music!! So I had to pick this one!

The girl I couldn't live without🎶

Album:Wonderland (2005) Song:She Falls Aseep - Part 2

🎶When she's asleep the air she's breathing is for you

You're why she wants to live

I almost chose ‘The Ballad of Paul K’ from this album, but this one is just such a beautiful song (especially since it flows very nicely from ‘She Falls Asleep - Part 1) but again this was another Album where I could’ve chosen so many songs.

She's not got that much more to give🎶

Album:Motion in The Ocean (2006) Song:Star Girl

🎶Whoa, your gravity's makin' me dizzy

Girl, I gotta tell you, I'm feelin' much better

I always say that ‘Transylvania’ is my favourite McFly song but ‘Star Girl’ is the one that whenever I hear it on the radio I turn it WAY UP I’m instantly 9 years old again and takes me back!   

Make a little love in the moonlight🎶

Album:Radio:ACTIVE (2008) Song:Everybody Knows

🎶Now hearts are getting broken but I guess it's what they call growing up

I’m just picking this song for the key change in this song alone. It’s a good song for rocking out, but for screaming along with the lyrics? 10000000000/10 for sure!!

We don't expect results because the kids around here don't give a🎶

Album:Above The Noise (2010) Song:Shine A Light

🎶Tell me can you hear my voice

Loud and clear above the noise

Even if I had the choice

Just another fantastic song for singing along to? what more can I say?

I would not give up🎶

Album:Young Dumb Thrills (2020) Song:Happiness

🎶I guess the only way I could describe it

This was after waiting 10 years between their last album (excluding their greatest hits and live albums) and I remember hearing this song and watching the video for the first time when it came out and it just made me so happy, so that’s why I’m choosing this one!

It's like hearing a love song and jumping inside it🎶

Album:The Lost Songs (2020) Song:Josephine

🎶I just wanna feel you close to me

Can't you see you made a ghost of me

This was an album of songs that were originally meant for their 6th album, but they got put away when they worked with Busted and became McBusted, but I am SO glad that they eventually came out with these songs, because we otherwise might not have had the chance to hear them!!

Josephine🎶
