(* Since tumblr is going absolutely insane , i figured iād share where else to find me and the comic incase this blog gets hit. several blogs I know have already been slammed over the past few weeks)
(* This comic involves gore/violence/death/dark topics involving minors, and many other accounts have gotten taken down for far less.) (* Please, if you havenāt checked out the alternate site/twitter, I advise you do it sooner rather than later.) (* I will continue to post here while iām able, but tumblr doesnāt seem long for this world now that itās cutting off a majority of its adult creators.)
Hey guys!! While I was working on the wholesome kustard comic my tablet broke! Like the little usb is slanted to the side, I donāt even know when or how that happened but I literally just noticed it, so I called support and they said they could fix it for what was basically the same price I paid for the whole tablet! Which I cannot afford right now.Ā
Iām opening up ko-fi commissions for this (traditional sketches). 1 full character starts at $6 and 2 characters for $9. nsfw will cost $3 extra dollars.Ā
Guys please I really need a tablet to continue drawing both for fun and for school and Iām still just gonna get a cheap one until I can afford a nicer one. If you can afford a commission I would be so grateful for your help! If you canāt, please reblog! ;u;
Edit: Super sorry!! Forgot to mention that I cannot take furry or animal commissions because Iām not good at them! At the very least Iām not good at making them look cute! Iām super sorry for anyone who wanted something like that but I canāt take on those commissions. ;n; I can only draw realistic animals.
This whole ātrust Tumblr blindlyā thing is eventually going to kill someone, as I became pointedly aware of on one occasion I was making fun of how poorly a particular bleach-based drain declogger was working on my sink and got a chorus of really dangerously misinformed people telling me to pour vinegar in after it because all cute little cool kid diy home care blogs theyāre following talk about vinegar like it itās the big secret the cleaning companies donāt want you to know.
And I cringed knowing that someday, some Well Actually expert who read a blog article once is going to give that advice to someone who unfortunately didnāt take high school chemistry and isnāt aware that MIXING VINEGAR AND BLEACH MAKES CHLORINE GAS.
Summarized : Ana is a competitive dancer and a dance teacher. She was brutally assaulted on her way home. She was raped, stabbed and beaten. Ana suffered physical trauma as well as deep psychological trauma. She will be spending another month in a hospital, which leaves her with no income. Her friends and family are hoping Ana will be able to fullfil one of her biggest dream – to compete in a Latin dance competition abroad in Vienna in 6 months. She also needs to cover her medical bills, therapies and basic necessities.
This is Ana, my best friend of 12 years. She is an amazing competitive Latin and Ballroom dancer who won numerous competitions and awards. She is also one of the kindest, most caring people I know. When we first met, 12 years ago, I didnāt speak a word of English as I am a daughter of Czech immigrants who moved to New York a month before Ana and I met. She was the first person in this strange new place who made me feel like I belonged. Every day she would help me with homework and practise English with me. After 3 months of her constant help, I became nearly fluent.
A week ago, something unthinkable happened to Ana.
theres a new product by verzion called āhumā that allows your parents to track your car and places you go, if your parents are controlling like mine please check under your steering wheel to make sure that they havent installed this
here is what it looks like installed:
you can read more about it here, and here–Ā this excerpt sums up what information Hum will send:Ā
āa carās owner will be able to get notified on their phone when the vehicle leaves a pre-determined area or drives faster than a set speedā¦ [Hum] will enable location tracking and a driving log, which measures travel times, engine idle times, and average speeds.āĀ
People in abusive relationships, please check your cars.
DO NOT TRY TO UNPLUG IT BY YOURSELF!
To add to this nightmare, Iāve just heard of a thing called ForceField where people get to monitor and block internet sites that youāre going on if they donāt approve.
It tells the user what sites/apps youāre going on, for how long youāre on them, and WHERE YOU ARE ON AN UPDATING MAP.
So you know if youāre in an abusive household and use sites like tumblr to escape and talk to friends, you could be cut off from that.
They say āitās not spywareā but it sure sounds controlling and creepy to me.
signalboost
God. Fuck. Thatās scary.
Life 360 is another tracker. My parents have used it on me, not allowing me to delete it from my phone, and sometimes even demanding selfies to prove I was where the map said. (As if Iād go anywhere without my phone)
SpectorPro is another one. Afaik it canāt track location, but it takes screenshots roughly every 20sec to allow the installer to watch a video of your computer activity. It also tracks all keystrokes, so passwords arenāt safe, and records any website you visit + the duration. Itās incredibly creepy and a huge violation of privacy, and was one of the cornerstones of my abuse as a kid.
even if youāre not in an abusive relationship/family, please spread this because you might have just saved someoneās life
my parents use life360 and while weāre on the subject of tracking internet, Xfinityās wifi allows the installer to have certain modes on a phone such asĀ ābedtime modeā which pauses the wifi from the IP so theres no way to disable it unless you get rid of the serial number on the installerās device, i think it also has a way to block certain youtube videos and websites, again, from the ip, the world is fucked, so beware and DONāT GET XFINITYWIFI!!!!
As I asked you last time for @cursetaleā, I count on you for spreading the word, guys! QuQ (Like, I always appreciate a like ā„ , but here a reblog would actually help me spreading the informations, giving you my eternal thanks for that!)
š±BIG MOOD! š±
Ā Taking a page from Blessās book! Come check us out on other platforms, we work closely together!
Does anyone else have the issue where The-Game-That-Must-Not-Be-Named won’t download? Instead when you click on the link it takes ya to a page that says “Error”? Anyone know if this is on purpose or it’s probably something else? Idk the only reason I’m asking is because I’ve been SUPER HYPED over this and now really sad because I currently can’t play it for myself ;-;
LGBT BRAZILIANS TAKE CARE WITH DATING APPS AND GRINDR, THEY WILL BE USED TO TARGET VICTIMS PLEASE SIGNAL BOOST
ALSO!!!!!!!!!!!!
In Whatsapp (the most used messaging app in Brazil), if you receive a contact from a ājuridical support group for LGBT+ people who are being harassedā called āREAJAā, DO NOT INTERACT!!!!!!! Apparently, this is not a real support group but itās a trap that are targeting LGBT+ people to physically harm them. They people behind āREAJAā have very malicious intentions.
A couple weeks ago, one of my best and closest friends Suu akaĀ hyukmisĀ on tumblrĀ had a horrible oil burn accident happen to her which has caused her chest to receive 3rd degree burns and her arms 2nd degree burns.Ā As of now, her left hand is free from bandages but the road to recovery is still a long one.Ā Her mother who was also present during the accident had gotten a little burned on one of her arms as well and is also recovering.Ā Because of where we live and what her insurance is (or isnāt) able to cover, she had to be flown down to Las Vegas to be given the proper treatment.Ā
Even if you just gave this a reblog, it would mean everything to me.Ā Donations are also of course greatly appreciated.
I was thinking hard about if I could make any kind of incentives, but Iāve also been so busy.Ā I donāt think I could make a request for everyone who donates, but I could possibly make some kind of incentives via notes;
If this post gets 500 notes, I will make a thank you art piece of some kind;
If this post can reach 1,000 notes, I will update The Universe Will Die Without YouĀ with chapter 30!Ā
If this post reaches 2,500 notes, Iāll update The Universe Will Die Without YouĀ again.
If this somehow reaches like 5,000+Ā Iāll do some kind of giveaway and update TUWDWY again???Ā (I donāt know ;v;)
I apologize for being away from social media for some time.Ā I havenāt been myself lately, and itās been really hard to get back into the groove of things.Ā That being said, thereās no way I can completely abandon artwork completely.Ā
Thank you all for understanding again any sharing/donations for her gofundme fundraiser is greately appreciated.
Thank you all so much to everyone whoās stuck by these past yearsĀ
