i understand that not everyone can donate rn even if they really wanted to. i myself am currently unemployed and cannot donate much more than i already have atm !! not donating is okay - pls don’t feel guilty if you do not have the means to do so.
if donating is not a possibility right now, ive found this 1 hour video you can watch on youtube where all proceeds from the ad revenue will go to an organization to help the cause (more info in the video’s description). op has compiled songs and art from Black artists to listen to. you can leave it on to play in the background or plug in earphones and go about your business as usual. it can’t get more simple than that.
as a fandom that’s known to mass stream, it would be amazing if you could channel that energy into watching this video !!!!!
My final Mermay for the time being, with Lotus Hana!
Week 3 - Momiji
Second Mermay - I challenged myself to drawing a darker mermaid, and I thought Higanbana fit the bill pretty well!
First Mermay of the year, featuring Shouzu!
Did a redraw of some of my Onmyoji Inktobers recently!
Portrait of a shared OC, Vanellope (an older version of her original concept).
Woodsign fanfic app on the App Store
Lots of people have been pinging me in posts about this company and their various apps (pictured above). I don’t own any Apple products, so I haven’t been able to see these apps myself, but my understanding is that they pull data from AO3 and present it in the app, sometimes for a fee.
If you’re wondering whether your own stories are being hosted on these apps, you’ll need to either check for yourself or find a friend who can check for you.
I emailed AO3 Support about the subject, and here’s what I got in response:
Thanks for asking about this app. We checked with the OTW Legal team and our coders, and have some information to pass on. “The OTW does not own the works posted on the Archive – they are all owned by their respective authors.
For that reason, although the OTW can (and does) rely on trademark law to make sure that people don’t make confusing apps that would make people think the OTW or AO3 is associated with them, there’s nothing we can do about apps or services that contain works owned by AO3 users. That is up to the authors themselves, who own the copyrights in their fanworks.
“Many sites have procedures (known as DMCA takedown procedures) that allow copyright owners such as fan-authors to request that their works be removed. The Fanfic Pocket Archive Library may have such procedures. Regardless of whether those procedures exist, copyright owners can always demand that their works be removed from places they are not authorized, and as a matter of copyright law, sites should comply with such demands.
“The Apple App store also has procedures for reporting apps that infringe copyright: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/appstorenotices/#?lang=en
“The Google Play store has similar: https://support.google.com/legal/troubleshooter/1114905
“To be clear, to the best of our knowledge, the app is not wholesale scraping and storing data - they’re displaying content from the Archive in a very heavily modified format. Because the app’s subscription fee can be explained as “to support the app’s code base” and not for the content itself, it is within legal bounds. Our only suggestions are for the creators of the works to issue DCMA takedowns to the app developer, and to the appropriate app store if they find the developer response unsatisfactory.
tldr; There’s nothing that AO3 can do in this situation. It’s up to individual authors to report the copyright infringement to protect their own work. Start with the app itself and then go to the app store if they don’t do as you requested.
If you could signal boost this post, I’m sure AO3 Support would appreciate it. I can only imagine how many emails they’re getting about this right now.
I really liked the uniform and theme for the new DLC, so I decided to draw my trainer practicing with her Pangoro~ Can’t wait for it to come out in a few months!
A little post for Lunar New Year! Wishing everyone good health and fortune~
Finished up with Pokemon Shield recently, so I drew up my final team! This is probably the first Pokemon game I’ve officially owned, and I think it was pretty fun, I liked the open-worldness of the maps, and cooking curry with my Pokemon was such a treat!
ComiCup’s collab with Onmyoji had such a pretty design for Arakawa, so I just had to draw it! <3
I changed plans a bit & would like to start the year with something different.
I have posted a thread on my Twitter to help our friends in Australia, humans & animals. Here’s the link: Twitter donation doodle thread If you donate $5 or more I will make a small doodle of your pet or Pokémon (ofc dressed up)! I will have to keep this to Twitter unfortunately, because DM’s would be hard for me to coordinate. The doodling starts on Sunday! Reblogs would be appreciated! Here’s only a couple of links to donate to (ofc there are more!):
> NSW Rural Fire Service > Help Thirsty Koalas Devastated by Recent Fires > Wires Wildlife Emergency Fund > Australian Red Cross
My entry for Onmyoji’s Halloween contest! Initially wanted to go for a Oz theme, but decided against it in the end. (Might do it for a future print idea though!)
quick rundown of guo changcheng’s cn bio page w/ some facts that might be useful in fic, i dunno:
- 23/24 in his first appearance (novel), drama never specifies his age
- guo can, in fact, drive
- raised by his second maternal uncle & his wife (ie. his aunt)
- uncle: guo ying / 郭英 (haixing department assistant minister -> minister)
- aunt: yu jinlan / 于金兰（妇联办公室主任 / women’s league office director)
— which is to say, go forth and write fic about guo changcheng’s politically active, feminist aunt who supports her gay nephew-son
Bruises, on both my knees for you Don’t say thank you or please I do what I want when I’m wanting to My soul? So cynical —- (Because he’s the bad guy, duh)
Happy to post this up after finishing recently! It’s a collab between me and an a friend, she drew the sketch (third pic in the set) and I finished with coloring+lineart. Very happy with how the coloring came out~
Finally got into Mo Da Zhu Shi after watching CQL, and I really love this ship??? Need more scenes of them taking care of the rabbits...
Some alternative clothing for Weilan/Chuguo ~ If they had other alternative outfits, what would they be?
Read this AU!fanfic about a young Changcheng meeting Chu Shuzhi, and honestly the idea was so good I just had to draw their meeting scene inspired by it! (Fanfic is Lead me out into the sunshine by bluewindfall on AO3)
I think Changcheng fits the coat-and-scarf vibe pretty well! Probably should have given him a longer coat but it still fits nicely~
Honestly wanted to see Changcheng in a long coat and scarf! And punk Shuzhi is fun to think about too.
Have some Brooklyn Nine Nine parody screenshots, featuring Chu Shuzhi and Guo Changcheng~ Inspired from chats from the Guardian Discord, cleaned up the last two.
Honestly wanted to see Changcheng in a long coat and scarf! And punk Shuzhi is fun to think about too.
Have some chuguo, but both Old Chu and Chang Cheng have accidentally been turned into animals by a rogue Dixingren...?
i’m living for that ‘soft bean coaxes grumpy dark one out of shell’ ship
