As you might know, my country, Belarus, is going through hell right now. We are trying to peacefully defend our votes and get rid of the dictator who shamelessly lied about the election results. And as we do that, we are faced with beating and torture at the hands of police and complete lawlessness from every government institution in the country.

But the Lukashenko regime brought not only political and democratic crisis, but economical one as well. Many people are losing their jobs, and our currency is facing massive devaluation compared to EUR and USD. As a result, our very low salaries got even lower. Within a few months my salary went from 450 USD a month to 330 and it is decreasing every day, but my rent is fixed in dollars (250 USD + bills), and I fear that by next month, I might not be able to cover it. Or pay for food, bills, commute etc.

I have been making gifs for almost 8 years in here, and tumblr has always been the place I could turn to in times of (emotional or otherwise) turmoil. I feel very conflicted about it, but if you enjoy what I do, or just want to help a struggling Belarusian out, please support me on ko-fi or send any money you can directly to my paypal account.

Even 5 dollars will make a huge difference! I would be very grateful for any help (even a reblog), and can repay you with gifsets if you would like that. Thank you so much!

Quick update: thank you so much for all your help and support!

I‘ve decided that I will give half of what I receive to the following Belarus charities (you can donate to them directly if you want!):

- Support for Belarus. This is a fundraiser to help those affected by the violent repressions in Belarus. That includes paying legal fees for people who have been detained at the protests and medical bills for the many people who have been beaten at the detainee’s centre.

- Belarus Solidarity Foundation This is a fundraiser to help people who have lost their jobs because of the political repressions. They also support the workers who went on a strike.

If you’re cold they’re cold! Bring your archaeologists inside in the winter.

How can we fulfill an archaeologist's need to dig indoors? Can we get an enrichment thread going?

Fill a kiddy pool with sand and dirt and hide some broken plant pots or plates in there! That will keep your archaeologist occupied and provide much-needed enrichment in the winter months!

Alright listen up fellow late 90′s and early 2000′s kids. Grew up with flash/shockwave browser games? 

Well Adobe is retiring flash in 2020 (rip) and this dude BlueMaxima has created a project to save online flash/shock/java/etc games and animation though a launcher software. HERE

There’s literally thousands of games that have been found and saved.

The internet is truly beautiful at times. 

A REMINDER AND A GODSEND

I was just wondering if anyone had done this!!

Your blog was hacked: what to do?

If you see weird pics of ladies with dubious links posted on your blog out of the blue, here’s a step by step way of stopping this and preventing it from happening again that I think might work.

Important : this only works if you can still access your blog!

Changing your password is important, but it won’t do you any good if your hacker still has an opened session on your blog and can still access it. So the first thing you wanna do is close your hacker’s session.

For that you need to go in your blog’s settings:

image

On the new page opened, scroll all the way down. There, you can see something called “Active Sessions“. The first and oldest one (”current session” in green) should be yours, the new one should be the hacker’s session. To close your hacker’s session, click the gray X next to it.

Now that their session is closed, they can’t access your blog anymore unless they enter the password again.

So don’t lose time, go all the way back up and change your password immediately. Make also sure your hacker didn’t change your email address.

Now you should be safe from your hacker. But it won’t prevent you from getting hacked again.

If you really want to be safe from hackers, you should turn on the “Two-factor authentification” option (on the same page).

It requires you to enter your phone number, which is a bummer. But if it’s turned on, everytime you wanna log on (so not if your session is already opened, but only if you log off and try to log on again), it will send a code on your phone that you’ll have to enter (in addition to having a password).

That way if someone tries to hack you again, even if they get your password right, they won’t be able to enter your blog without having that code.

There it is. I hope it will help some of you, since I see more and more people noticing blogs being hacked

with light about the massive wave of bot-hacking i’m seeing, please do this and keep your blog and all of your personal information secure!

Read this and save a life - YOUR OWN

From a surgical nurse and certified CPR teacher:

Please pause for 2 minutes and read this:

1. Let’s say it’s 7.25pm and you’re going home (alone of course) after an unusually hard day on the job.

2. You’re really tired, upset and frustrated.

3 Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw. You are only about five km from the hospital nearest your home.

4. Unfortunately you don’t know if you’ll be able to make it that far.

5. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy who taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.

6. HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.

7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.

8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.

9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!

10. A cardiologist says If everyone who gets this mail kindly sends it to 10 people, you can bet that we’ll save at least one life.

11. Rather than sending jokes, please... contribute by forwarding this mail which can save a person’s life.

12. If this message comes around you... more than once… please don’t get irritated... You should instead, be happy that you have many friends who care about you & keeps reminding you how to deal with a Heart attack.

please take the time and boost this post by reposting it and sending it to those you love because we all need to understand how to quickly deal with heart attacks

The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) dir. Henry Selick

here’s the comic I made for the ffxv celebration zine!!! I had been wanting to draw this premise since I finished the game, so I’m really grateful for the opportunity to have it in the zine 💖

I spend a lot of time thinking about chapter 15 🌄

I didn’t need these feels right now. I’m sitting over here bawling. I absolutely love this so much <3 <3 <3 

I’m sorry I draw a bunch of sad ffxv fanart so here’s an unnecessary comic about kissing frogs as an apology

bonus:

everyone who reads this post will get some big spicy joy within 24 large minutes (hours)

Ok y'all but like I’m not even kidding about this I read this post yesterday and today I got an email from the peeps at hamilton and I won the lotto gor $10 tickets and I would like to give all my thanks to the internet’s favorite fish, Goldie Gurston, for making this possible because I totally believe they did this with their amazing gay powers

So I know this is likely a coincidence…but I reblogged this and just now discovered I’ve been given a $150 amazon gift card as a bonus at work. So thank you, fish!

If it worked for them I hope it works for everyone else
