#tumblr suppresses links

[evitcani-writes]

You know a website is extremely functional when a browser extension can bypass the rate limits.

Anyway, for people who still like to use twitter, here’s a browser extension to bypass twitter’s rate limits.

That’s the link to the chrome extension, but you can find the other browser extensions pretty easily by going to the creator’s github.

Please remember to donate if you like their work. Their up to date donation info is in their Github.

The open source internet only stays open for as long as developers can dedicate their energy to it. Money stuff sucks, but even $1 is going to say “thank you” more times than a thousand demands for them to fix everything right now (which they 100% are getting).

Tumblr will suppress this post because of the links, so please link to the github in your own posts or send it to friends!

Zmarqa is one of my absolute favorite Hualian artists that I found on Twitter and this is just a taste of some of her more recent work.

She writes and draws her own comics of AUs involving them that have so much thought put into them. Her pieces in general are so detailed and you're almost always rewarded for taking the time to really look at them.

Since she's not active here on Tumblr, I would highly recommend following her on Twitter (zmarqa), Twitch (Zmarqaa), or, if you have the spare funds, Patreon (Zmarqa). Her Patreon Discord is full of great folks and she pretty frequently streams on there for patrons, so it is well worth the cost.

I did get permission from her before making this post with her artwork.

Hey kiddos, I hope you're having a great day!

Hard to believe I've been back at this blog again for 4 months already! I've been working really hard to keep the queue full and going for everyone, so I hope that effort shows!

I try not to do much self-promotion on this blog because I get a weird sense of guilt for doing so for some reason, but today is my birthday, so I think I'm allowed a little self-promo lol as a treat

I want to say first off, thank you all again for all the engagement, be it from comments, tags or especially reblogging my posts! It means a lot since I do this blog for you guys!

So if you like the work I do here, and or my other work/art and you can - please consider supporting me!

I have a Patreon where I post; early access art - and I talk at more length about the pieces/processes, exclusive weekly WIPs where I talk about long term projects and goals, linearts of finished pieces, and exclusive access to my sketchbooks from HS forward, as well as anatomy studies I don't post publicly!

If you don't want to subscribe monthly to my Patreon, consider dropping me a Ko-fi now and then!

If you're not the donation kind; I do take on commissions randomly when asked, I just don't advertise it as much because I work 40 hours a week on a swing shift, so I'm not as fast as I use to be! But I still enjoy taking 'em!

If nothing else, again - thank you for the support and sticking around!

That's all, thanks guys! Have a great rest of your week, and we'll see you Saturday at the usual spot!

I've got lots of strong feelings about the QSMP situation, but I think that everything has been said. So, instead: Please remember not to doomscroll. Reading everyone's opinions is not a requirement, will not make you a better person, and will not help you feel better. If you need a distraction, the @mcytrecursive collection released on Saturday and currently has 151 amazing MCYT fanworks in it (some by me, but I'm not at liberty to say which, teehee). Take a breath, take a break. We don't have control here. That sucks. Go enjoy something you do have control over.

I'M 145% FUNDED!!!

HEY EVERYONE! Check this out!!!

Yes! Not only did I reach my goal, but I ROCKETED right past it! THANK YOU to everyone who's backed the project so far. Rewards are now GUARANTEED. The book is done and ready to go AND the project is fully funded!

There's still some stretch goals! In fact, one has already been "revealed." (A fully-detailed black and white map of the whole continent) and at $2500, I'll reveal the second.

If you're in another country and worried about high shipping costs, there are plenty of tiers with NO shipping costs, where you'll get an ebook and some cool other digital rewards. (Like character sketches! There's still a lot of those left!)

You can pledge as little as $3 and still get a reward, and it would help me out immensely! So if you're not really sure about the book, but you want to help me reach my ultimate stretch goal, you can throw in just a little tiny bit to give me a little boost.

And as always, even if you can't back the project, SHARING THIS POST is extremely helpful.

Hi there 👋,

My name is Mohammad, and I’m reaching out in a moment of desperate need. I’m a father of three young children living in Gaza, and we are caught in the midst of a catastrophic war. Our home is no longer a safe haven, and the future here seems increasingly uncertain. 💔

I’ve launched a fundraising campaign with the goal of raising $40,000 to relocate my family to a safer place where my children can grow up in peace and have a chance at a brighter future. 🕊️🇵🇸

Unfortunately, my previous fundraising efforts were abruptly halted when my account was terminated without explanation. However, I remain determined to keep fighting for my family’s safety and well-being. 🫶

If you could take a moment to read our story, consider donating, or simply share our campaign with others, it would make an incredible difference. Every act of kindness, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to safety and a new beginning. 🙏

Thank you for your time, compassion, and support. ❤

Donate or please just share the link if you can to get Mohammed to his goal and evacuate his family! 🍉♥️🙏🏿

i don't understand the point of this post? because azarias did try to change the otw from the inside. azarias did put in the hours and propose specific, actionable policy changes that she would have a hand in enforcing (specifically, requiring sources for gifs in underage fics and banning photomontages of children's heads on naked adult bodies.)

And in return for this, she was pushed out of the organization and scapegoated for last year's spam attacks. trying to change the organization from the inside is an noble goal, but look at how feasible it is.

also, hot take, but speaking as someone who has volunteered to work on big projects tackling difficult issues out of community love in the past, I am just. is the otw probably a really toxic place to volunteer and work right now? Sure is, probably! Is public pressure that doesn't come with an influx of new people volunteering to do the messy work of figuring out what a better policy is, how to create anti harassment safeguards, and otherwise fixing the problem actually useful? Fuck no it is definitely not!

like I will be 1000% honest, I have in fact been asked personally to volunteer to help a community transition on a much smaller scale to fix problems of this magnitude to encourage a much smaller scale organization to work and perform a community service. and I took that job with a strong sense of "ye gods this is going to suck and I'm going to piss people off by doing things wildly imperfectly, but if I don't help provide my work it might not get done because this is fucking hard and no one is paying."

and I did it and I stopped as quickly as humanly possible. now that shit is someone else's volunteer problem and I'm delighted, because let us be real I'm a disabled middle aged lady with a day job and I don't have full time professional effort to dedicate to stuff I do in my spare time for free. that's one of the fun things about disability actually, it constricts the total store of focused labor hours available to me to put in, especially on landmine topics like extending the scope of my archiving projects to create a farsighted anti harassment policy that can't be weaponized.

so like. the work needs doing. anything anyone does is going to be imperfect and problematic and bad, because it is being done on an almost purely volunteer basis by people who are for whatever reason willing to donate high level professional skills and labor for free and don't need to do stuff for actual money and support instead. like sure the budget is enormous for servers but none of that goes to labor.

Outrage is going to do jack shit unless people volunteer to roll up their sleeves and start doing the work to donate a better policy, or better management. This shit is fucking difficult, exhausting, and impossible to do without pissing people off. I am damn sure not getting involved right now, and that's why I have not been commenting. Public pressure is not going to do jack shit if it didn't come with support.

If this is an issue that is important to you, you have to back up your outrage with resources. Since the AO3 does not exchange money for labor, that means showing up to offer to help build something different. as I said, I am a middle aged disabled lady who finds fandom and archive repositories to be important and helpful and I don't have any labor left to donate, so I have been reserving comment on complaint. If this is a thing that matters to you, congratulations! Public pressure is only useful insofar as it can be used to make the org let you help. It's up to you to actually help.
