Three cast unlocks in and we are NOT slowing down 🎲🪦
🎲 GARY — the Game Master. award-winning fantasy author. 15 years of writer's block. He needs this quest more than anyone.
⚒️ MELANIE — the heart of the group. the actress who never quite made it. but as Melanor, Holy Knight of the Goddess Amal, she finally gets to be the star she always was.
🧪 KEVIN — the loud but lovable jerk. in-game Rogue known only as... BONER LORD. bankrupted his best friend's company and is pretty sure she's not still mad about it. (she is.)
Who's next?!
We genuinely cannot believe we get to make shows like this with all of you. every backer, every share, every "i told my friend about starkid". That's what makes shows like Tomb Quest possible!
Back the campaign and help us unlock the rest of the party 👇
Tomb Quest - A New Dungeon-Crawling Musical (on Kickstarter) TOMB QUEST is a new musical comedy written by Matt Lang & Eric Kahn Gale, with music by Clark Baxtresser and lyrics by Clark Baxtresser & Eric Kahn Gale. If funded, the show will premiere live this summer at the Colony Theatre in Los Angeles, CA, then hit YouTube a short time later. It will be directed by Nick Lang, produced by Becky Clark & Brian Holden, and star AJ Holmes, Kim Whalen, Curt Mega, Lauren Lopez, Joey Richter, and Corey Dorris.
Im gonna be so real can yall actually talk about ways we can support trans women in the UK instead of giving all the attention to fucking JKR. I already know that Harry Poter sucks, I wanna know how to actually HELP people. Something something you have to love the oppressed more than you hate the oppressor
trans actual uk - trans led and run advocacy, education and empowerment organisation
fiveforfive - collective fund for trans women and girls and transfem causes
gendered intelligence - trans led advocacy org
mermaids - supports trans youth
akt - lgbtq youth homelessness charity
loving me - domestic abuse service for trans people in england
not a phase - for trans adults
Here's some from Wales
Trans Aid Cymru - supporting trans people in wales
Queer Emporium - hub of queer businesses and events
And ones who operate in Wales but also across the UK
TIN Wadrobe - supplying clothes for trans and gnc people
G(end)er Swap - resources and events for trans style and gender expression
Adding some from Scotland I have experience with and afaik take donations, some are broader but with good trans inclusion:
Scottish Trans - Trans advocacy, information and social events. Run by the Equality Network, a broader Scottish LGBTQI advocacy group.
LEAP Sports Scotland - Sports charity that advocates for queer inclusion in sports, runs trans sports groups (Trans Active) in at least Glasgow and Edinburgh that I can absolutely recommend.
LGBT Health & Wellbeing - Not trans specific but includes trans specific, trans led and trans inclusive support and social events, and supports a variety of smaller community-run subgroups.
And another couple UK-wide:
Gender Identity Research & Education Society - Trans led charity supporting research on trans matters and education/training on trans inclusion. Does consultancy for public and private sector organisations.
Trans Kids Deserve Better - Trans advocacy and activist group led by and for trans kids. They do good work.
Did you miss the Indie Animation Black Magical Girl Live last night? Well fear not. The VOD is up and ready for your viewing pleasure. Get to hear from your favorite Indie Animation Black Magical Girl showrunners. 5 black queer folks/femmes and their black magical Girls! We talk about the importance of creating our stories in the times we're in, why Black Joy is important and the ups and downs of Indie Animation as a whole as Black creators. @fumichun (Wheels & Roses) @breanimator / @thethreetomes (The Three Tomes) @kianamaiart (Pretty Please I Don’t Want to Be A Magical Girl) @kenzyxart / @towardsgalaxysend (Towards Galaxy’s End) Shara Kirby (The Chaotic Misadventures of Arch & Reggie)
Reblogs in a chain now get their own notes
The reblog chain is one of the things that makes Tumblr unlike anywhere else. All the notes on reblogs are attributed to the original post, no matter which branch people actually liked or reblogged. We want to keep encouraging conversations, and give contributors the recognition they deserve.
Soon, you'll be able to like, reblog, or reply to any part of a reblog chain, and that note will go to that reblog's author. Each reblog will have its own counts, instead of one aggregated number from every version of the post. And yes, you’ll be able to like multiple posts in one chain.
If a reblog doesn't add anything, the love flows up to the last person in the chain who did. Your post doesn't lose notes just because people spread it quietly.
Past notes will stay on the original post — we're only changing what happens from here on out. Retroactively re-attributing all of them would be... a lot.
This is just the beginning. More changes are coming as we keep building this out – stay tuned!
It’s very clear that you all have strong feelings about Tumblr and about this change. We hear you. The passion people have for how Tumblr works is one of the things that makes this place special.
As this rolls out over the next few days and you explore it, we’ll keep reading your replies and reblogs, so please keep sharing your questions, concerns, and ideas.
Your creativity has always been the heart of Tumblr, whether you’re the original poster or adding something brilliant in the reblogs, and nothing about this change is meant to limit that.
If you’d like to talk directly beyond the comments, leave a reply and we’ll follow up with as many of you as we can. We want to work with you to make Tumblr better.
hey folks do we like this. reblog without commentary for reach
do we want this?
yes
no

What happens when you get 4 Black Animation Industry femmes/folks that love magical girls ? You get 4 BLACK magical girls with 4 different spins on the genre. Black girls belong in every genre, Black girls can go on adventures. Black girls can be loved. Black girls are silly, whimsical, witches , skaters , space vampires , and magical.
✨Black. Girl. Magic. ✨
(A celebration of the work of my friends/industry peers as we tell our stories the way we want because deserve to be seen in all ways)
Painting study of a frame from Wake Up Dead Man - 90ish minutes, Clip Studio Paint, mostly the default gouache brush with a little sweeteners at the end using the big blurry spraypaint brush! Loved this movie!

thank you SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!!! Glad he got to enjoy Christmas waffles 🤣🤣🤣
I'd so deeply like to believe every engineer around me is on the same wavelength understanding that building AI tooling is building (most of our) own career graves. Just with the pressure on our backs of "get fired now for not doing this or get fired later when the AI replaces us."
But then also I see an effusively pro-AI LinkedIn post from my boss and I just. You understand the never-subtly-stated goal is job elimination, yeah? You and so many other people across so many other sectors. "AI can do for $20/month what an expert would charge hundreds an hour for!" That's you! You're the expert!!! The only winners here are the company owners paying an AI subscription instead of paying employee packages, and the AI sellers laughing to the bank.
They're not being subtle! The company will work you to the grindstone and keep with this pattern of "unprecedented" ~10% annual layoffs, that started in 2023 and won't stop. The desk next to you is empty. Bob used to sit there. Theo used to sit in the next room. I'm not insane. They want you to make the AI and then they want you gone! Hello! Hello?
Finished a Sketchbook!
Bought a big sketchbook at the ren faire in april, and last week i finished totally filling it with figure/gesture drawing studies!!
Here are phone snapshots of my favorite drawings from my final session of the year, a Marcille reference video purchased from zeet sketch studios
If you shout FIYEROOOOOO as long and loud as you can, you’ll get the full effect. The movement isn’t perfect yet, but I’m very happy with this first draft!
I am re-listening to The Magnus Archives.

Had a lot of fun figuring out how Michael moves! Now that I've drawn his grand entrance, maybe someday I'll draw the scene where he...uh...leaves.
