By the way it's like. Really fucked how society's thoughts on epilepsy is just "get over it." Seizures can cause permanent brain damage. Seizures can kill people. Seizures hurt like hell. Allow me to reiterate that seizures can kill people. And you're just gonna casually put flashing lights, a common trigger for seizures in your advertisement, in your animation meme, in your edit, on your billboards, without even thinking about putting a simple disclaimer? That's unbelievable. Your little anime edit could deadass cost a life and you're not gonna put a warning because it's "inconvenient" or "people like that shouldn't be on the internet" (ableist) (the problem exists outside the internet also). Or you'll give insufficient ones like putting it in the captions or only giving like one second before the flashing lights appear, meaning that the trigger's already in motion before anyone who needs the warning can read it and save themselves from literal physical danger.

We need to start commenting under other people's posts about how to properly warn for flashing lights and eyestrain. We need to be emailing and calling companies about their possibly triggering advertisements that could induce seizures. We need to stop tolerating ableism and start speaking up for the more vulnerable.

Also, stop putting epilepsy warnings. That's like saying "warning: schizophrenia" on a post including unreality or "warning: dyslexia" on a post with a typing quirk. First off, the disability mentioned isn't the only group of people that this could trigger. Second, it doesn't truly get the message across and instead makes it worse for those with the disability-- scrolling through the epilepsy tag on Tumblr should get you to view the content of other epileptic people, but no, you just get a bunch of flashing lights and eyestrain, even though you could instead tag for, oh I dunno, flashing lights and eyestrain.

Anyways this Disability Pride, and for every month that comes after, think about epileptic people and others who are triggered by flashing lights/eyestrain. Happy pride to those who experience seizures too frequently due to the unaccommodating and ableist societies we live in!

Info-post

Okay, guys, i made this post because i'm honestly tired of the lack of information about Ukraine. The war isn't over and genocide of Ukrainians became normalized. Plus there are a lot of people who truly believe there's no more war because they rarely see any news! So here are a few sources you can share. Donations are optional LIVE MAPS: -Air Raid Alert Map (interactive map where you can see where air raid sirens are on, which cities are under attack, explosions etc) -DeepState map (also an interactive map with areas that were liberated or are currently occupied by russians; is updated every day) NEWS SOURCES: -GRUNT MEDIA (tweet in Ukrainian, but if you use twitter, you can always click a translation button) -United 24 Media (tweet in English!). Their official website is -> HERE -Bring Kids UA. They help locate and bring home children who were kidnapped by russians. Their official website -> HERE; their twitter -> HERE; useful links (including a petition) are HERE -Save Ukraine. Its a registered charitable organization established in 2014 that coordinates dozens of organizations, volunteers, individuals and legal entities to help those affected by war, with a special emphasis on children. Their websire -> HERE; their twitter -> HERE -TV Toronto -Kyiv Independent + their twitter -Ostap Yarysh. Covers US-Ukraine relations, tweets in ENG. His twitter -> HERE -Ukraine World. Multilingual media about Ukraine. Their website -> HERE. Their twitter -> HERE -Zarina Zabrisky. US journalist who reports from Ukraine. Tweets a lot about Kherson city, a city in the south of Ukraine that get shelled and attacked by russian drones DAILY. Recently released a film called "Human Safari" that shows you reality of the town. You can watch her film -> HERE. Her twitter is -> HERE Charities/volunteers who help AFU: -COME BACK ALIVE (a non-governmental organisation that helps strengthen Ukraine’s security and defence sector. Has been operational since 2014, when the war has started!) This organization is VERY TRANSPARENT! Their website is -> HERE. Their twitter -> HERE -Serhiy Prytula charity foundation. He also helps Armed Forces of Ukraine with trucks, drones etc. -Sternenko Foundation. Serhii Sternenko is a famous Ukrainian volunteer. He helps UA soldiers with FPV drones. Drones have been crucial weapons/helping tools in this war. They are useful not only for observing, repelling the attacks of the enemies, but also bringing food/water/medicine to wounded soldiers. His twitter -> HERE -Leleka Foundation. Medicine, tactical medicine! Lots of lives on the battlefiled are saved with the help of proper tourniquetes and equipment. This org provides it. Their twitter -> HERE -Wild Hornets. Drones-drones-drones. They make drones that are crucial for this war. Their twitter -> HERE -Project Konstantin. They deliver aid, vehicles, communications tools, and tactical equipment. Their twitter -> HERE -NAFO 69th Sniffling Brigade. They bring trucks for Ukrainian defenders. Those who read the news at least a little bit, are aware how important 4x4 trucks are. Especially for evacuation. Their twitter -> HERE -World Central Kitchen. International organization who provides meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises. They work with locals and really there for those who are affected. A soon as territories in Ukraine were liberated, they were there to help. Unlike OSCE, the UN, Red Cross etc, WCK truly help people. They keep working in Ukraine despite the shelling. By the way, they work all over the world and helped people in Gaza too! Their twitter -> HERE THANK YOU to everyone who shares this! Please amplify Ukrainian voices, talk about Ukraine, support those who were affected by war... unfortunately it's closer than you think.

This is very very very useful

I have been in Kyiv for only two days so far, but I already feel like I should get heavily medicated because I can't get rid of that nasty feeling deep inside my chest. Every time you support a russian artist please think about the Ukrainians who are running to bomb shelters every night and the Ukrainian artists who are painting under the sound of explosions. I am so mad that we have to claw for the recognition and literally fight for our lives on a daily basis while russians get to live guilt and accountability free.

[budyak]

That same "magical" feeling when you just get ready for sleep and ballistics alarm goes off (whooping two minutes at maximum before it hits) and you realize that you won't have time to reach the underground (where it's deep and safe), so you run to the bombshelter next to your house that is not deep, won't save you from a direct hit to the building and is basically a trap with only one way out.

You run anywhere just to run and to fight for your life, at least somehow, at least irrationally, to gain some sense of security and control. Because you want to live and someone tries to rob you of it.

I don't know how after this the idea of Russia doesn't become frightening and disgusting for you.

[wordswithoutaworld]

Just saw a russian artist's commission info saying: payment only through Boosty due to the situation in my country.

The "situation" is your country committing genocide against Ukraine.

You can't even be honest on your own Tumblr page. And your clients might end up funding, through the taxes you pay with their money or through your own donations to your country's army (because some westerners quickly forget that a person can actually support their country's actions, especially when they phrase things like this), the continued killing of ukrainians.

For God's sake, at least ask about the political views of a russian artist before commissioning them. If you're from Europe or the US, you're literally paying someone whose country is at war with yours too.

💫: Hi, sorry to link offsite, but this person put it much better than i could and idk if copypasting it is a reasonable thing to do. Have you covered Gooseworx and her stance (or, lack of a clear one) on Ukraine here before?

What brands support Ukraine and what brands support Russia?

Here is a website version:

Over 1,000 Companies Have Curtailed Operations in Russia—But Some Remain

Here is a mobile app version, I personally perfer it because of the barcode scanner option, but the database used is the same:

Apply sanctions on your own with PushToLeave

Also thank you genuinely for still caring!

[garland-on-thy-brow]

I want to bring this back. Responsibly choosing who to buy from is a form of help. All it takes is a quick check.

The PushToLeave app (second link above) uses two databases that you can switch between; one may have more up-to-date information than another. It is easy to use.

Here is the site that is one of the sources for the app: https://leave-russia.org/. For example, their page for L'Oréal details how the company found a way around the sanctions and continued - even increased - selling in russia. The site also has links to the companies' social networks, should you want to tell them what you think of it.

ARE YOU THE GUY THAT DREW THOSE ‘how jammers be oike’ COMICS WITH LIKE THE PINK WOLF YELLING FIR A MATE AND SHIT

Unfortunately not, maybe the specific person you're thinking of is WingedSheWolf on DA (I had actually made them fanart lol, what a coincidence!), or maybe Shiniima (also on DA), but i loved those lmao

Thank you for reminding me, now ill go look at a bunch of those right now <3

[clawdiathetigress]

Comic i made back in 2018, originally posted it on DA based on a list mysteriouskey (also on DA, linked in the DA post) made. Thought it might be nice to repost it. Remember when this was what the fandom was like? I kinda miss the days where i met Greely's daughter roleplayers ngl, but the current art i see in the fandom is pretty darn fantastic too

[wingssomnia]

was thinking abt this painting a lot recently and russians bombed the museum where it was hanging
