Who Cares?

Fandom girl. Somehow ended up scanlating AoKuro doujin. Updates once every three months if you don't count scanlation updates. + My ask box + My scans

Well, well, well... how do you like them comments?

it’s true!! you can now like comments on Tumblr posts. you know those little replies under posts? you can heart them now.

why did it take us so long? well, we’ve been busy letting Instagram catch up on reblogs (sorry—reposts). now they’re finally up to speed, we figured we could borrow one of their features 😏

it works exactly how you think: see a comment you love → tap the heart → bask in the mutual validation. check out the comments section of this post to try it out. 

go forth and like those comments responsibly!!! or, yk, generously, abundantly, and with all your heart. you know how this goes.

I am deeply appreciative of whoever in FFVII Ever Crisis’ team is vicariously living their Suave Vampire Boyfriend fantasy through Vincent. Really brings me back to my teenage years.

It's legit. Section 11.G "Opt out" explains how.

I just did this, and Etsy doesn’t actually tell you anywhere on the site how to find your username (it’s randomly generated), which you need to opt out, so here’s how to do that:

https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/115015653248-Your-Username the main point is “The URL of your profile page contains your username. It looks like this: etsy.com/people/[your username]”

Tumblr Community Labels PSA

hey guys, just a quick PSA message to let you all know… tumblr has released a new feature called “community labels” where you can label your posts as mature so that people can voluntarily filter or blur posts that contain certain subjects… however while your first encounter with it will likely be while posting, it’s also Already affecting your settings. if you go into your dashboard settings you’ll see a new section that looks like this…

THESE ARE ALL SET TO “HIDE” BY DEFAULT.

tumblr is currently hiding all flagged mature content from you unless you manually turn it on lmao. just thought i’d let you all know!

[mikealys-reblog]

On PC, you do actually have a little cryptic words about it─

[olderthannetfic]

So, there's a decent chance Russia will disconnect from the global web in the next few days. Any tips for fans who want to preserve as much of LiveJournal as possible - not just on their own PCs, but for everyone else?

--

Import shit to DW if you can. Document what it was like. Talk about it on other platforms.

[lizarin]

holy fuck I didn’t even think about that!

better go back up my lj.....

oh no! WHAT ABOUT THE KINKMEMES D=

[olderthannetfic]

Some people have spent years waybacking and making links lists to kink memes (often hosting the bookmarks as an AO3 collection).

We’ve known for a decade that we needed to back up LJ or lose it.

I do a lot of fandom history preservation, often of older things it’s impossible to motivate people to care about. LJ is still beloved and many of those fans are still around, and yet...

[hjbender]

I've heard through the grapevine (read: unverified chatter) that there's a long queue to get journals backed up/imported to DW, so does anyone know if there's a Python utility to backup LJ accounts, like what a lot of users did here on Tumblr in December 2018? Especially since this seems to be a pretty time-sensitive "save it while you still can" situation?

[olderthannetfic]

I assume this has to be the case whether I hear about it or not, yeah.

That’s an excellent question, and I have no idea.

Anybody?

[shinelikethunder]

For your own journal and communities that you mod, both LiveJournal and Dreamwidth have an agèd and hoary API that will let you export entries and comments in XML. This is obviously not ideal, but it's extremely portable and pluggable into third-party tools for later use, and most browsers will display it for you in prettified human-readable formatting.

User-friendly guide: https://discursivescript.tumblr.com/post/177012433992/laymans-guide-to-mass-exporting-comments-from

Please feel free to spread this far and wide, since it's not just fandom affected - a LOT of the initial internet explosion in Russia took place on LJ, and any parts of it that are still hanging on are worth preserving by anyone who's still got access.

I think this is overdue a proper announcement!

If you're unaware, I'm one of the members of the New XKit team. It's no secret though that New XKit is kinda dead in the water, thanks to Tumblr's overhaul of its interface which broke almost every feature we had. Oh, and everyone else on the team has a day job now, so I decided to take matters into my own hands:

XKit Rewritten is the result of my work of over a year, now available for Firefox and Chrome (and by extension, Edge and Opera too). There are still features to be added, but the featureset has now mostly overtaken the current working featureset of XKit 7.

If you're already an XKit user, I heartily recommend trying the new experience - even if it means configuring everything again - for its improved performance and increased compatibility.

If you're not already an XKit user, I invite you to give it a go! There's probably some option you'll enjoy. Even if you're on your phone all the time, there's a janky way to set it up on Firefox for Android (sorry, iOS users; blame Apple, not me) which I've also detailed on the wiki.

Have fun with it!

CLAMP's Tokyo Babylon Manga Gets TV Anime in 2021 by GoHands

King Amusement Creative announced on its official YouTube channel on Monday that CLAMP's Tokyo Babylon manga is inspiring the Tokyo Babylon 2021 television...

[nelelen]

THERE WAS A FUCKING AOMINE REFERENCE IN FGO.

[nelelen]

So I managed to get a Pillowfort account via the new invite thread, and I’m considering posting the doujins that don’t respect tumblr’s current ToS there by making my post mutuals-only. I understand that all Pillowfort users get three invites per week, and I snagged two accounts, so I could provide 6 people who follow me still with invites on request.

[nelelen]

I had a crappy version of this doujin on the back burner forever, so it’s nice that someone else got to it!

[nelelen]

Happy AoKuro Day! It’s been a while, but you can find two short doujins on the blog.

[lanonima]

updated version including Shen Qingqiu for @hqfeels hopefully this is what you wanted LOL

I’m done making this joke now I promise

AO3 won the 2019 Hugo Award for Best Related Work!

Here’s the speech given by Naomi Novik when the award was accepted:

All fanwork, from fanfic to vids to fanart to podfic, centers the idea that art happens not in isolation but in community. And that is true of the AO3 itself. We’re up here accepting, but only on behalf of literally thousands of volunteers and millions of users, all of whom have come together and built this thriving home for fandom, a nonprofit and non-commercial community space built entirely by volunteer labor and user donations, on the principle that we needed a place of our own that was not out to exploit its users but to serve them.

Even if I listed every founder, every builder, every tireless support staff member and translator and tag wrangler, if I named every last donor, all our hard work and contributions would mean nothing without the work of the fan creators who share their work freely with other fans, and the fans who read their stories and view their art and comment and share bookmarks and give kudos to encourage them and nourish the community in their turn.

This Hugo will be joining the traveling exhibition that goes to each Worldcon, because it belongs to all of us. I would like to ask that we raise the lights and for all of you who feel a part of our community stand up for a moment and share in this with us.

Help out an Aokuro girl

Can y'all please recommend for me some good AoKuro (aomine × Kuroko) fanfics? I'm feeling very deprived of this glorious underrated ship.
