Where Oturi Ship Hate Goes To Die @nonsensefreeoturi - Tumblr Blog

that’s all folks ❤️

I’m having the hardest time here in Japan, but I’m so glad I decided to join @otayuribigbang this year ;;; I already joined some fanzines doing a single drawing with my own idea, but having the chance to illustrate someone’s story was really nice ~ Thank you for giving me the change to draw your fic @thelamestfad ! Once I’m back on my feet I hope I can join this kind of project again ヾ(｡･ω･)ｼ *I’ll edit the post later to add the link to the fic and a few more information! also right now my most active platform is twitter: weruwerutaiga or tsukicos

A buddy commissioned me to design a couple of noteboks they’ll be giving away at a Yuuri on Ice themed Christmas party. This is obviously not the actul design that’s going into print, but I wanted to share the drawings.

Man. Chibis and semi-chibis are so hard ; ___ ; I want to die.

I also want to apologize for my lack of cultural accuracy in their dances.

with the staff’s latest announcement I’ve made a decision that I’ve been putting off for a long while, I’m going to start using twitter, before this I did have a twitter but never really used it since I’ve always preferred tumblr’s layout and functions, but now I’ve remade it and plan to actually use it, mostly replacing tumblr with it.

I’ll still be using tumblr, lurking as I always have, because hellsite or not I still have a lot of people I enjoy following here and whose content I love seeing so I’m gonna be here until either they leave or until the staff nukes my account, but that brings me to my next point: the influx of Otayuri content has been rather slow so I haven’t been very active on this blog, though I do try to have a day of posts every now and then when I can, but from now on I won’t be active at all, basically..

starting tomorrow, december 4th, I’ll no longer be using this blog.

I still love Otayuri and I still love this fandom and I still love you guys, but this site gets worse every goddamn year and it’s time for me to start distancing myself from it, starting with this blog, I have 4 reblogs ready for tomorrow and they’ll be the last things I post on this blog.

take care you guys ❤️

#I'm just done with the staff on this site #I won't be deleting this blog so y'all can still go through it and get your otayuri fixes #provided the staff doesn't delete it for whatever reason lol

From someone who’s survived MySpace, livejournal, deviantart, and fanfiction.nets’ content purges and bad policy updates, here’s some advice on how to get through tumblr’s recent bullshit:

- don’t knee jerk delete. I know it’s tempting to peace out immediately but hang on and do the other steps first. Out right ghosting and erasing everything is how fandoms die.

- archive everything on your blog you want to keep

- tell your followers how they can archive and keep your work too. A lot of fic and art were only saved from ff.net and lj because other people saved it first. If you’re cool with other people saving your work for them to personally keep, let them know this. You can absolutely discourage reposting but I really do highly recommend you allow people to personally save fic and art they like and are worried will disappear forever. Digital Dark Ages are a real thing.

- tell people where you’re jumping ship to. Give links. Keep that info up, even if you’ve left the site.

- go through who you follow and find out where else you can follow them. Save their work if they’ll allow it. It’s tedious as hell but if you want to keep up with people on here clicking on their page to check in is the best way to do it.

- support places like ao3. This is exactly why ao3 asks for donations a few times a year. They are a 100% anti-purging, judgement free, ad free non profit run by an elected board and protected by lawyers. Places like ao3 literally save fandom so please continue to support them and other similar archives. This is exactly why ao3 is so important.

For example, here’s a post that explains and links for how to back up your blog

Also, go read the source policies and official Tumblr statements in addition to user analyses and reactions. It’s important to keep abreast of developments over time; staying informed is your power in this situation. Memes and reaction posts are funny and are a useful way to vent / provide commentary, but some of them create an inaccurate picture of what’s happening and should not be taken as evidence on their own of what developments have happened.
