A Twitter thread of mine that I think some of you may find useful here as well! Iâll update this periodically when I update the Twitter thread.
As you may know, October is fast approaching! For many people, this means effervescent preparations for the Inktober Challenge. For the past few years, thatâs what I didâŚ. but I donât know if I can tackle it this time. Iâve been battling with migraines, which are fairly counter-productive. :âD I would at least like to try, however, which is why I prepared my own list anyway, as usual! This time, I wrote an assortment of sea-themed spooky prompts! It is something I would genuinely love to explore further with my art. đŚ (if youâre curious, the prompt involving sirens refers to the Greek mythology half-bird creatures)Feel free to use this list of prompts if you would like to participate with me đ¤ And whatever you decide to do⌠Smooth sailing to you, my friend! ~~~~~~~~~~ Comme vous le savez tous, Octobre approche Ă grands-pas ! Pour un certain nombre de gens, c'est le moment d'entamer d'effervescentes prĂŠparations pour l'Inktober Challenge. Pour les dernières annĂŠes, c'est ce que j'ai fait⌠mais je ne sais pas si je pourrai m'y atteler cette fois. Pour l'instant je bataille avec des migraines, qui sont contre-productives :âD J'aimerais tout de mĂŞme essayer de faire quelque chose, et c'est pourquoi j'ai prĂŠparĂŠ ma propre liste, comme d'habitude. Cette fois, j'ai très envie d'explorer des thèmes creepy et marins. đŚ (petite prĂŠcision : notez que le thème âConniving Sirensâ fait rĂŠfĂŠrence aux sirènes grecques) Sentez-vous libres d'utiliser cette liste si ça vous tente de participer avec moi ! đ¤ Et quoi que vous dĂŠcidiez⌠que les mers vous soient clĂŠmentes !
Welcome fans of Silent Hill- new or old- to a less abstract Silent Hill prompt list for Inktober this year!
I couldnât find a single SH Inktober that was more or less subject oriented, rather than just edgy words⌠so I made one! This is of course to my tastes, positioned around my preferred games from the series.
Feel free to share and save if you want an fandom-based art challenge for Inktober.

Official 2019 Promp list is out!
ugh fine my personal blog is not cutting so Iâll post hereÂ
DO! NOT! DONATE! TO! AMAZON! CONSERVATION! NGOs! DO NOT!
they donât act on the root of the problem, they donât mitigate the effects of deforestation, they do have limited action and they donât help conserve the forest land outside their very small grounds besides doing little to nothing to help the people who actually live in the amazon and conserve it on a daily basis
DONATE TO THE INDIGENOUS MOVEMENTS INSTEAD
they are organized, they can keep woodcutting companies away from their land, they are getting murdered for it, they are the only reason there is any forest left at all
THISÂ is a a fund for indigenous peoples of the Amazon (Brasil only)
THISÂ is a link to donate from abroad to the indigenous womenâs march, it has already happened but you can still donate to support the cause
THIS is a link to support the free land camp, and you can email them at [email protected] if you really want to find ways to support them, donations will go to APIB (Brazilian Articulation of Indigenous Peoples) and you can keep up with their news here
(APIB is coordinated by, among others, Sonia Guajajara! so if you know her you know this means shit will get done)
How to help AmazĂ´nia:
You can donate to SOS AmazĂ´nia which is one among the 100 NGOs selected as âThe Largest NGOs in Brazilâ.
> > > ( ENGLISH: //doe.sosamazonia.org.br/en ) < < <
And remember: - 1 USD is 4,04 reais. - 1 EUR is 4,47 reais. If you donate only $2,50 USD (10 reais)Â youâre helping a lot.
If you donate only $2,30 EUR (10 reais) youâre helping a lot. About people saying âthe minimum value is $10â: Even if youâre not from Brazil you can donate in REAL instead of donating in USD or EUR via Paypal, so⌠YES, you can donate less than 10 dollars or euros. (Just donât change the currency to USD or EUR, Paypal converts your dollars/euros to reais.)
Please. Boost if possible, this is REALLY important.
yall look at this shit ad*be is tryna pull now on ppl who have outdated software:
(note for context: iâm all for piracy, but in this case my copy of CS6 was downloaded years ago when they were giving it away to students. i got it totally legally.)
so here is what NOT to do if youâre a loyal fan of adobe who has the cash to shell out for a newer and shittier version of the product you already paid for.
1) DONâT use your search bar to find and open the Run app
2) DONâT type in services.msc
3) DONâT find Adobe Genuine Software Integrity Services and right-click to get a dropdown menu, and donât select âpropertiesâ
4) if you happen to click properties, DONâT use the startup type dropdown to locate the option to disable the program. be sure you DONâT click apply to finalize that change.Â
5) DO NOT do the same thing in order to also disable Adobe Genuine Software MonitorÂ
if you do all of these things, this WILL disable adobeâs ability to monitor the software, and you will be forced to continue using the same older software that you already paid for instead of having to sign up for a newer, shittier version and pay more for it. so if you have lots of cash to spare and are cool with putting it the pockets of racketeering capitalists, definitely donât do any of these things.Â
however, you SHOULD reblog this to spread the word, as we certainly want to make sure lots of people know what NOT to do :)
yeah theres no way to stop using amazon completely because they own so many things and many websites use them for hosting, but audible is something we really dont need. amazon is already trying to replace public libraries with âaudible amazon librariesâ and we cant let that happen. your libraries are already payed for with taxes ((though normally way underfunded because politicians normally dont care enough))Â
use libby or overdrive for audiobooks or ebooks, support libraries and buy from their used books sale (ive scored so many awesome books, and old books! as well as some great cds and movies) , and many libraries also mail out books!! theres so many options and libraries are always changing to make themselves more accessible for everyone, so support them! theyre such an important part of your community.
also you can just ask for your library to order a book if they dont have it, or they can borrow it from neighboring libraries in your county or even other counties depending on the place! libraries are the best and when i was homeless they were one of the best resources i could have asked for with free ac, wifi, good bathrooms, and books books books ad well as so many other resources, groups, clubs, events ⌠please support your local library!Â
HEY! YES! This is important! You can check out books from your local library (along with audiobooks and movies and music too!!) without ever having to leave your home. Hereâs some links if you donât know what OP was talking about: OverDrive, Hoopla
BUT ALSO!! Right now libraries are facing a problem with a new policy from very large publisher called Macmillan thatâs due to be enacted in November.Â
As Jessamyn West explains in her article on CNN:
For the first two months after a Macmillan book is published, a library can only buy one copy, at a discount. After eight weeks, they can purchase âexpiringâ e-book copies which need to be re-purchased after two years or 52 lends. As publishers struggle with the continuing shake-up of their business models, and work to find practical approaches to managing digital content in a marketplace overwhelmingly dominated by Amazon, libraries are being portrayed as a problem, not a solution. Libraries agree thereâs a problem â but we know itâs not us.
52 lends is nothing when it comes to popular books. In essence, this new policy would require libraries to re-purchase the same eBooks over and over just to continue to provide access to their readers.Â
Libraries already have to go through a lot of hoops and extra expense to provide digital content, and this policy will just make it even harder, more time consuming, and more expensive, thus making it more difficult for libraries to provide eBooks at a time when demand for eBook access at libraries is growing exponentially. Both the ALA and the PLA have come out strongly against thus policy, and it sets a TERRIBLE precedence for other publishing houses and future policies. Itâs a bad idea thatâs expensive and ultimately punishes the people who need libraries the most.
But YOU can do something about it, right now! Help us tell Macmillan publishing that their new policy is terrible and will adversely affect the people who need digital library access the most!Â
Check out the ALAâs action page for some great graphics and an auto-tweet form that will let you voice your displeasure to Macmillan directly.Â
Or you can just copy and paste it into Twitter from here, and add the graphic too if you want:Â
Limiting access to new titles for libraries means limiting access for readers who are most dependent on libraries. @MacmillanUSAâs new policy is unacceptable, John Sargent. Cancel the embargo. #eBooksForAll
Please help us keep library eBooks accessible for all! Not only will you help your libraries, but as OP explained, the more you use your libraries and other legal means of acquiring digital books and content, the more you take away from Amazonâs unconscionable domination of the eBook and digital content market. Itâs a win-win.Â
Claiming your $125 from Equifax is a "moral duty"
If you fill in this form, Equifax will send you $125 as part of its settlement with the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau, the FTC, and 48 out of 50 states.
Equifax doxed the nation and profited handsomely from it. $125 is a laughably small sum given how much damage the data they hemorrhaged all over the internet could cause you. Equifax should have faced the corporate death penalty, the execs who oversaw the disaster should have had their assets seized and diverted to anti-identity-theft measures and charities.
Instead, the FTC et al are hitting the company for a maximum of $700m (how much they pay depends in part on whether you fill in this form. Â Equifaxâs market cap stands today at $16.6B, and it posted $3.412B in earnings in 2018, up 1.48% increase from 2017.
As meaningless as the $125 is, as piddling as the $700m is, you should still do this. As Josephine Wolff writes for Slate, breaches should be as expensive as possible. Anything you can do to make them more expensive will help people inside companies who are arguing against data-collection and retention, making the world safer for everyone else. Anything you can do to make breaches more expensive will hit the share price of companies that overcollect our data.
Go on, do it.
