Always late, as always...

Just a small anthro pygmy carabao grazing by ( posting WiPs, works, and catching interesting articles )

[unpretty]

i’m just gonna post all the ways i’ve found so far to get RSS Links They Don’t Want You To Know About from social media sites, because people keep Leaving Tumblr Forever in favor of sites that i’m not going to use

(if you don’t have an rss reader yet just make a feedly account, it takes about one whole minute, if you decide to use a different reader later you can export your whole list, it’s fine)

i’m gonna use strikethrough to indicate the text you need to replace and also include examples of feeds that seem to work

A General Rule

on almost any website look for the icon that looks like this

that’s the button that means ‘the rss feed is here’

Tumblr

just add /rss to the end of literally any blog’s url, including tags

i.e. unpretty.tumblr.com/rss or unpretty.tumblr.com/tagged/original/rss

now you can Leave Tumblr Forever and still follow blogs until such a time as tumblr implodes in earnest

Dreamwidth

use username.dreamwidth.org/data/rss

i.e. gallusrostromegalus.dreamwidth.org/data/rss

WordPress

if it’s hosted on WordPress.com, just add /feed to the end of the url

if it’s self-hosted (i think around 20% of people who have their own website use wordpress to host it, i know i do bc it’s easy as sin) also just add /feed to the end the url

i.e. en.blog.wordpress.com/feed or kittyunpretty.com/feed

ArtStation

use username.artstation.com/rss

i.e. beccahallstedt.artstation.com/rss

Mastodon

just add .rss to the end of someone’s profile url

i.e. cybre.space/@kittyunpretty.rss

deviantART

use backend.deviantart.com/rss.xml?q=gallery%3Ausername

i.e. backend.deviantart.com/rss.xml?q=gallery%3Aarvalis

YouTube

this one’s a goddamn pain in the dick because you need to find the channel id first

in general youtube channels have a nonsense url like youtube.com/channel/abunchofbullshit

you have to take that last bit and plug it into youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=abunchofbullshit

i.e. youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCbpMy0Fg74eXXkvxJrtEn3w

Tapas

this is mostly handy for webcomics that were hosting on tumblr and crossposting, i think? i don’t know how tapas works for creators tbqh. anyway they’ve actually got a button at the top when you go to the comic page.

the one between ‘add to library’ and the paper airplane will give you the rss feed

LINE Webtoons

ditto wrt tumblr-hosted webcomics, and also having a button

the button to the left of the one that says +subscribe will get you the rss feed

Twitter & Instagram

these are the only two sites i’m including that don’t have native rss support, just because so goddamn many people have literally no other web presence at all for some reason

twitter used to have rss feeds but killed them, and i don’t think instagram ever had them. you have to use workarounds for these, and a lot of them end up getting killed, like TwitRSS.me. fetchrss seems to work okay but it costs money. if you pay for inoreader they’ve got built-in support for following twitter accounts but that’s not a practical solution for most people.

right now i use rsshub.app/platform/user/username

i.e. rsshub.app/twitter/user/dasharez0ne

… but the instagram one doesn’t actually seem to work, like, most of the time. i don’t know if i’ve found one that works ever. if you’re jumping ship there please consider doing the world the enormous goddamn favor of just making a free wordpress.com account and cross-posting all your instas with ifttt or something, rather than being totally at the mercy of mark zuckerberg

Small FAQ ‘cause of the tumblr thing.

Was planning on just leaving KHA as an archive since I can’t access it either way. Well that plan is fucked now.

I’ll try to save what I can and start posting new content on a nsfw twitter I’m working on atm. I’ll like it later.

I don’t think I will be posting every drawing I’ve ever made there though so I’ll try to save as much as I can for an archive or something in the future but I would still recommend you start saving any pics you liked there.

I believe this blog will remain fine since it’s not flagged as nsfw but at this point I don’t want to trust tumblr anymore.  I’ll make a better post linking all my twitter blogs a bit later.

I’m trying to avoid Newgrounds for now ‘cause I rather stick to just one social media site but we will see how that goes.

[momoo-gyuunyuu]

my tumblr is terminated

hello, been a while i haven’t posted anything huh?

let me explain why i turned off my tumblr:

first, it’s been a while i’m working on a video game that will feature my character momoo which i had not enough time to make a new version of my mlp version of momoo.

secondly, it’s also been a while that Tumblr are trying to kill the adult contents, of course i’m often disgusted by those weird contents which it’s not the right content to share…

third: all my arts related to my oc will be set as private and will not longer be visible. sorry but i absolutely don’t want my stuffs get locked up.

where to find me? here a good list of were to find me:

https://www.deviantart.com/allaze-eroler

https://www.furaffinity.net/user/allaze-eroler/

https://twitter.com/allazeeroler/

i will update it once i created a new blog specifically for my characters and my worldbuilding, it will not be on tumblr considering how bad that situation is.

[aero-replies]

Just so it’s clear, I will continue to post updates on this blog for as long as tumblr is useable and will allow me to me. BUT in case you’re one of those people who are leaving here's where you can find me.

Twitter : Art stuff!

Pillowfort: Will post aero updates here as well!

Discord: chat with me and others!

Patreon: get sneak peeks and updates for $3!

Kofi: times are tough

AKS Wordpress!

Just in the worst case scenario, I imported all of Ask King Somra onto a wordpress site.

https://askkingsombra.wordpress.com/

wow, such majesty. such lack of formatting.

I did go through and contest all the flagged content on AKS and it looks like they unflagged it, but I haven’t gone back through all 600 posts to double-check so WHO KNOWS. But eyy just in case, a wordpress to preserve a llllot of work.

YEET,

I’m still gonna be around on Tumblr even after the 17th! nothing will tear me away from this dumpsterfire of a site. WHERE ELSE CAN I POST PARAGRAPHS IN TAGS??? probably somewhere, but change is scary

[ask-glittershell]

A humble reminder to everyone, just because you think your blog is sfw doesnt protect you from Tumblr Staff’s stupendously incompetent algorithm.  

Please go through your art posts and double check your content hasn’t been falsely flagged.  Because I bet it has!

[pencilsponyforge]

Dear Tumblr CEO and relevant staff-

I know you don’t give a fuck. I know your seat on the apple money throne is too high to hear the voices of your users, but here I go, shouting into the great void between us, into your grand safe space.

You make this lofty post of making a more inclusive and safe Tumblr, but all you do is attack people. you send your mindless bots after their blogs, you put them through days of hell, fighting for their craft, their livelihood, while your bots do nothing but attack innocent people, mes their timelines, flag their posts, delete their blogs, drive a wall between artists and their audience. 

I do not feel your “safe space”, all I feel is the distress of those hundreds of people confused and worried over this event and their loss of ability to enjoy the content i have provided them for free.

I work hard every day because i believe in my craft, i want to offer people a little sliver of escape from their everyday troubles, maybe shed some faint light of hope into their lives, make the life those few moments it takes to read my comics a more tolerable experience. I have been through hell in my own life, comics have saved my life many times over, and here you are, making that altruistic effort to share my experience of hope and escapism substantially harder. Repeatedly flagging my art as offensive, making these mindless accusations on my character and my work. And I do not seem to understand your “idea” of more positive experience. How is it more positive and inclusive to attack people bringing joy and entertainment to others? How does that great lofty goal is in any way advanced by your discriminatory practices? 

You must take people to be complete idiots if you expect them not to see that this is all about you hungering some apple money. Greed, not inclusivity, Moral posturing, not safety. Safety is freedom to express yourself, safety is ability to share your artistic vision without fear of loss of your livelihood and audience because some guy somewhere decides on your behalf if you have right to be heard or seen.

Ideas, even bad ones need to be shared so they can be judged and evaluated on their own merit. Was it then breasts or pastries. Censorship is never the inclusive, safe, tolerant solution. Never.

All you are doing is paving way to another round of puritanical witch hunts. So do posture as some moral paragon, put on airs of inclusivity all you want, but don’t bet on people being dumb enough to buy it when with one hand you go stabbing people in the back, while with other you are shaking hands with the devil in plain sight.

tl;dr Fuck you Tumblr, you ain’t inclusive, you are literally driving away people and attacking them, that’s the opposite of inclusive.

[copyplays]

I’ve gotten some questions about ways you can support me, so I finally went and started a patreon.

Help me justify my output of a picture a day!

Any and all support is greatly appreciated.

[pencilsponyforge]

A friend of mine just made a patreon! Go toss her some coinage too. She’s a fine animator and a comic book artist! All around pleasant person and to top it all, a huge Star Wars nerd.

[vaard]

Tumblr flagged my latest Draecember so hopefully it gets resolved soon so safe mode people can see.

[sss-drake]

Id like to show you all something.

Yes indeed no nudity but you can find all the discriminatory and hate speech you want!

But wait, the icing on the cake…

…really? Do i need even say anything.

[ladycybercat]

Hello all!

Thanks for reading this.  I’ve been doing freelance art since the early 90’s. I love creating original art and doing commissions. In 2015 I started having incredibly painful joint issues. After seeing a bunch of doctors and specialists I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.

Without getting into the nitty gritty it has severely impacted my ability to be creative and draw. I’m no longer able to work at the pace I once could. It’s been exceptionally devastating emotionally and financially.  I don’t want to give up on art as a hobby or as a profession. I also do not want to ask for help without giving anything back. So in exchange for your support I’m going to be creating two special images for those who donate to this fund raiser. If we actually make it to the max funding, I’ll make the two images available for everyone on my web galleries at a smaller size. Folks who donate will get a copy at 300 dpi resolution suitable for printing without watermarks.

I’m looking at several models ranging from $500 (XP-PEN Artist22E Pro 19 inch) to a Wacom Cintiq 22 HD at $1,699.95 .  I’d be happy with the XP but it doesn’t play well with wacom drivers so it would be more complicated to use with my current set up. So I’m shooting for the moon as using the Cintiq would be easier. I am hoping using a pen display over my Intuos will make drawing easier and thus allow me to be more productive.

Thanks again to everyone who’s supported me over the years, and to those who  assist me in this endeavor.

If you’d like to donate to the cause here are the links:

If you do not wish to use Ko-Fi you can donate directly via paypal! Even just a dollar would help me achieve this goal!
