Yong's Magical Candlenights Adventure
Chapter 4: As The Dust Settles
The festivities of Candlenights are interrupted by of horrific surprise. Who could be responsible for this? Yong is about to find out he may just be in over his head.

WE'RE SO BACK!!!!!!!!
sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four
now for all your bodily perception needs
People often say to me: “You draw like some kind of inhuman machine. If I eat your brain, will I gain your power?” The answer is yes, but there is another way. The key to precise drawing is building up muscle memory so that your arm/hand/fingers do the things you want them to do when you want them to do them. Teaching yourself to draw a straight line or to make sweet curves is just a matter of practice and there are some exercises you can do to help improve. If you’re going to be doodling in class or during meetings anyway, why not put that time to good use?
So Pope Francis met with JD Vance on Easter Sunday, giving another go at explaining compassion to him, then dies the following day
Im not saying these two things are connected, but if I was writing this book people would be criticizing me for hitting them over the head with obvious symbolism.
A Treasure Plant AU Ive been working on!
In this AU, Varian finds his mother’s map after their home is ransacked. Eugene and Lance take on the role of Dr Doppler and accompany Varian to protect him. They board Captain Rapunzel’s ship and meet her Navigation Officer Nuru. Here Donella is the ship’s Surgeon and Hugo the recently promoted Cook.
Now Varian is taking his place as cabin boy, Hugo is annoyed and frustrated as he is left out of Donella’s Plans to show Varian the ropes and keep him from learning any of their secrets.
to celebrate this precious bby boy's recent mini spin off by the lovely i-found-you-justine-time and theartistswings, here's a yong headcanon track ✨

Varian's Tangled Trials- THE SEQUEL!
A SEQUEL?! I hear you ask. Why yes. Because while we may have wrapped up the story so wonderfully created by Kay and Anne, Co-Ladies-In-Waiting... I mean, Co-Writers Lauren and I have been wanting to dip our toes back into this world and take these characters for at least one more spin. This new story came from Lauren's most brilliant mind and is both a continuation of the VTT story and a bit of a holiday celebration! If you loved Varian's Tangled Trials in the past I beg you to come join us for one more little adventure! Yong's Magical Candlenights Adventure
Seven months after discovering the Eternal Library Varian, Hugo, Nuru, and Yong are back! Tis the season of Candlenights- a holiday that celebrates the founding of the Alliance of the Seven Kingdoms! It's Yong's first ever Candlenights and he couldn't be more excited! But as the festivities go on, Yong realizes something more is happening behind the scenes. Will he be able to save the day alone?
Please find the first chapter here!
Don't know what Varian's Tangled Trials is? A fan of the Tangled Animated Disney Show? Come see what all the fuss is about here!
Its trueee
Next chapters coming sooner than you think 😘
My fandoms and my fandom neighbors!
TODAY, August 12, 2024, The Animation Guild begins negotiations with the AMPTP to win a new contract for animation. This is a huge fight with severe stakes for the future of the Animation Industry in the US, and the guild needs your support!
TAG is fighting, Right Now, to stop exploitative practices that are weaponized against animation professionals across the globe, and working hard to ensure this industry has a future here in the states.
If you are a fan of animation, whether it's major or independent studios, eastern or western, tv or movies, we need you to get LOUD in support of The Animation Guild. The crews who work so hard to bring these works to life are struggling to pay their bills, if they can find work at all, while studio CEOs are getting multi-million dollar raises to cancel projects and gut streaming libraries.
We can win this fight, but we need public outcry and support. If you work in animation, if you've ever dreamed of working in animation, or if you just love animation, please stand with TAG and support the union effort to keep animation a viable career and a valuable medium!

What is this about the tumblr staff wanting to sell art data to midjourney?
An ex-colleague of mine mentioned yesterday that there may be contacts between Automattic and midjourney in that direction, but nothing is public yet and I don't have any more info. They probably won't have anything specific to share either, since they left the company weeks ago too. That being said:
I have no reason to doubt my ex-coworker word, they are a trustworthy person.
Tumblr's CEO has been absurdly enthusiastic (comically, even) about AI, and is a big fan of LLMs and 'AI' companies.
A deal with midjourney could solve tumblr financial issues (not the same company, but openAi is paying up to 5 million/year to news companies to use their content as training data... tumblr generates several orders of magnitude more content than any newspaper or any media company and it only would need a 20 to 30 million per year deal to be profitable)
So I don't have any extra info yet, but I'm keeping my ears open.
And I just got confirmation from a second ex-colleague that a deal with midjourney has been brewing since months ago. Not any extra details, just that's a real thing.
Shit, I don't see any way for this to happen that doesn't make it an apocalyptic event the size of the porn ban. Fuck.
Shit. This may be pure chance and coincidence, and it's not he is in a position to be able to talk about anything, but seeing prominent staff members announcing they are moving their original photography out of tumblr just two weeks ago seems a pretty significant cue of shit to be about to hit the fan.
Just tested. It’s possible to swap out pictures on already-published posts. So in that case, a solution:
Nightshade your photo posts now.
Even if you don’t post your own art anymore, go back to your old stuff and watermark it.
Do it ASAP, before the deal goes through and the scraping begins.
This will not only protect your art, but has the opportunity to fuck over this deal on a pretty large scale. The more of these posts that are glazed or poisoned, the less valuable this deal becomes for tumblr and midjourney.
Share this with everyone. And i do mean everyone.
Have you flipped the tumblr switch to not get scraped for AI-theft today?
It’s in the account settings. If in the app do the following:
1. Go to your blog (tiny human symbol)
2. Go to account settings (tiny cogwheel on the top right).
3. Scroll down to and hit Visibility (the second option from the end)
4. Activate the last oft the three switches (depending on your previous settings it may already be activated (symbol sky blue with switch to the right)
If you have several blogs you need to do it for each one.
Done.
They can deny it all they want. The world finally sees them for the monsters they truly are.

you may walk out of the underworld but you have to trust that she is behind you. do not look back to check.
i trust that she is there
i trust that she is there (i think)
i trust that she is there (please?)
i trust that she is there (can you hear me?)
i trust that she is there (say something so i can hear you)
i trust that she is there (what if it’s a lie?)
i trust that she is there (i can’t even see her shadow on the wall)
i trust that she is there (SAY SOMETHING)
SAY SOMETHING.
look behind.
#jesus.#orpheus and eurydice#as a poem#using a poll#this is probably the greatest exploitation of mediums i have ever seen op#every reader has the chance to become part of the text by voting#not the subtext#the TEXT#and i love me some ephemeral works in concept#you had to be here for this one week#and then the text is locked#(barring any edits to the original post of course)#and i just think that's so beautiful#beauty springs from the simplest things viewed askew#and all you need is a poll that accepts long enough strings (via couchcrusader)
and then THE FINAL RESULT. where “look behind” came so so so close to winning, but “i trust that she is there” came out ahead by 0.1%. so maybe, maybe, we did it right this time. maybe this time we were able to save her.
Thinking about how 140 people made all the difference…
