🔗 ；⸺ at.tumblr.com links remover

[image description: a screenshot of an online tool that says “tumblr - remove at.tumblr.com on link shares”. The prompt label says “Paste in the Tumblr link you copied”, and includes two examples of such links. It finishes with a button that says “Do the thing please”, with all the words capitalized, and a click icon. end ID ]

📢 As of 2023/03/24, Tumblr are no longer enforcing at.tumblr.com links when you copy a link from the mobile/app. [Read More]

When a post link is copied via mobile, it can appear as the following variants:

𝟙 �� at.tumblr.com / {𝚞𝚜𝚎𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚖𝚎} / {𝚌𝚊𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗_𝚝𝚎𝚡𝚝} / {𝚝𝚛𝚊𝚌𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐_𝚒𝚍} 𝟚 〜 at.tumblr.com / {𝚞𝚜𝚎𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚖𝚎} / {𝚙𝚘𝚜𝚝_𝚒𝚍} / {𝚝𝚛𝚊𝚌𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐_𝚒𝚍} 𝟛 〜 tumblr.com / {𝚞𝚜𝚎𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚖𝚎} / post / {𝚙𝚘𝚜𝚝_𝚒𝚍}

I made a tool that converts them back to their original permalinks so when they’re shared on social media, the previews should show again.

👉🏼 at-tumblr-links.glitch.me

You can bookmark this on your phone or your desktop browser so you can quickly access it when you need it!

Currently, it’s not known which at.tumblr.com link format will proc under what circumstances. If it has a 𝚙𝚘𝚜𝚝_𝚒𝚍 in it, that’s good news. If it doesn’t, we need to ask a URL un-shortener service to follow the redirects for us. But this tool should accommodate any format regardless. It’s not perfect, but I hope it helps.

If you run into any issues, you can report them to me via Discord or Tumblr ask.

Renault Rodeo 6, 1972. A utilitarian vehicle based on the platform of the Renault 4 using the 1108cc engine from the Renault 6. It was built for Renault by ACL (Ateliers de Construction du Livradois) and was available with 4 wheel drive courtesy of engineering company Sinpar. The canvas roof structure made it was configurable completely closed, semi-open, as a pick-up or fully open. It remained in production until 1981.

What I find really interesting about Dungeon Meshi is how it explores the role of humans/humanoids in an ecosystem and what is okay to consume.

Take the kelpie for example. Senshi is attached to the kelpie that frequently joins him while he's fishing, even naming her. Marcille also thinks it's cute and supports the idea of Senshi riding it. After that doesn't turn out well Senshi apologises while delivering the killing blow, appearing remorseful. Nevertheless, he himself sets out to salvage usable ingredients from the now deceased kelpie and even Marcille uses some of its fat for soap.

That is an example of exactly the type of relationship I think humans should have with livestock animals. I'm mostly vegan (occasional exceptions made for fish and eggs) both because of the environmental and animal rights issues with large scale livestock farming/the meat industry. However, I very much support a harmonious approach shown by indigenous peoples and small scale farming for example. Where, similar to Senshi and the kelpie, the animal lives a good life and is loved by its keepers until it is killed and all its parts are utilised.

There is also something to be said about people's involvement in the slaughter of animals so they respect the origin of their favourite products, like Marcille with the soap, since that is likely one of the reasons people currently consume animal products in such copious amounts. I regrettably didn't save the post in my drafts, but I saw someone on here talk about how far removed we are in the west from the origin of our meat products and how absurd it is that people are disgusted by a fish served with its head for example.

Meanwhile, Laios and Chilchuck are arguing over whether it's okay to eat a fish-man since it resembles a humanoid. Laios naturally wants to eat everything but Chilchuck has reservations when it comes to humanoids. This comes up in later episodes as well, where the rest of the crew appears to have fewer reservations since the creatures are being killed in self-defense and they're now seeing the utility of not letting resources go to waste.

Now I wonder if they'll take it as far as cannibalism, but humanoids are already a close metaphor. In any case, it is a great way to showcase how the arbitrary values we attribute to different species influences what we consider to be acceptable food, even though it's all just meat. I mean, I could never slaughter a cat for example but somehow would be fine with eating human flesh...

G, 2k, Nie Mingjue & Jiang Yanli

Summary: Jiang Yanli and Nie Mingjue's wedding is a political one — a gesture of unity between their Sects. A way for her parents to finally get some use out of the plain-faced sham of a cultivator they call a daughter. “Jiang-guniang,” Nie Mingjue says, and the formality in such a setting as intimate as their wedding chambers startles her, “I don’t wish to bed you. Or any other woman, for that matter. It isn’t fair for you to live alone because of my own preferences.” She rests her hand on his arm, cool relief flooding her body like water on a summer afternoon. “If it helps, I don’t feel desire for men,” she whispers. Kay's comments: The lavender marriage between Nie Mingjue and Jiang Yanli I never knew I needed but thorougly enjoyed. Really enjoyed Jiang Yanli's POV and how she's making a home for herself in Qinghe. Excerpt: A wolf slips under the fortress walls. Jiang Yanli sidesteps the frantic servants as she examines the hole it left at the gate. She tracks its muddy pawprints through the Unclean Realm. Somewhere between the fortress’s entrance and its heart, Nie Huaisang appears at her side. Nie Mingjue, her husband of three weeks, finds her at the staircase. His saber is drawn and his face is wary. “Stay back,” he warns. “Starving animals get vicious when they’re desperate.” Jiang Yanli shakes her head with a smile. She thinks of A-Xian, six-years-old and flat against the ground at the mere mention of wild dogs. “I can’t fault them for that.” Her husband and her newest younger brother watch in silent awe as she coaxes it outside with nothing more than her gentle voice and a strip of smoked pork belly. “How were you not scared, saosao?” Nie Huaisang asks, once the wolf’s fluffy tail disappears under the gates. “It was so big!” Jiang Yanli smiles at him. “I’m bigger.”

I apologize if this is becoming boring but I am just thrilled over and over by how well our article discrimination is going. We did like 6 reps this evening, up to 4 cold articles, and she is nailing it every time, bringing it to me joyfully. I feel like this is such a great way to reinforce the work we have been doing on retrieves, and they're happily informing each other. She goes SLAMMING into the pile to search, is starting to search really intentionally...it's just like. Amazing. Especially because I've never been able to find any success with scent skills, this is blowing my mind.

Not me being worried that Aayla has been struggling more and more with obedience plus being worried about rally and making sure she is okay with trialing...

Aayla just went out to prove me wrong (after I spent last night crying about it).

Rally Masters - 200/200

Rally Excellent - 195/200 (she was wild and we had to repeat one sign and some anticipation issues that caused a slow down)

Then since she was fired and happy I decided to enter Utility B and then if we qualified Open B.

Aayla had an AMAZING utility run. The floor was slick and she slipped a bit when turning for one go out and didn't sit after. Then for Open she had one autofinish. Then also take off some points for whining and crooked finishes here or there, but she was confident and all of my other concerns were none issues. She sat for all of her heeling halts, she got her go out and correct glove.

Our order had directed retrieve with glove 1 right before out directed jumping. Which stresses me out because Aayla struggles with wanting to return to where she got the glove. Yet Aayla went to the middle stanchion after a slight bobble towards that corner. So our training has paid off! I'm so proud.

Utility B - 192.5

Open B - 193

So happy with her. The flooring with some random mats made things way less than ideal. We had a few weird moments because of that but overall she handled a weird ring picture very well!

Aayla walked away with her REMX and RTX titles, High Combined Rally, High Combined Obedience, and High in Trial for Rally. She is now only 8.5 points away from her ASCA OTCh.

The photo is of us with Aayla's breeder and one of her dogs that got his RM today!

Free 'Evergreen' Gym Bag pattern!

Hello Denizens of the internet!

I have made a thing very recently.

It's a gym bag pattern, and it's Free!

Is it perfect? No

Is it easy to follow on how to make it without instructions? Uh....maybe?

Is it free? YES!

Follow the link below to download and use it.

https://ko-fi.com/s/2b8aa626af

It is intended to be viewed, printed if needed, or even possibly printed in true scale at a 1:1 ratio on a plotter printer.

The pattern is also "as is" but I do intend on making a video eventually on how to make it yourself, along with instructions, that may be uploaded as part of the package in the future.

If you use it, please tag me on Instagram (@) kieraoona or go to my community tab on YouTube, and comment on the post I made about the pattern there, at the link below:

Why 'Evergreen' you ask? I wanted to name all my patterns after trees, and the person I made this pattern for, @astras-rambles named it!

Also note I don't have any working photos of the final project at the moment, but I intend to, when I have a chance.
