GUYS I NEED HELP

The internet could change next week, and not in a good way

You may have heard about the efforts in Europe to reform copyright law. The debate has been ongoing in the European Parliament for months. If approved next week, these new regulations would require us to automatically filter and block content that you upload without meaningful consideration of your right to free expression. 

We respect the copyrights and trademarks of others, and we take all reports seriously to ensure that your creative expression is protected. We make this clear in our Community Guidelines. There’s already a legal framework that works and is fair: Today we take down posts and media that contain allegedly infringing content when we receive a valid DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) takedown request. We also provide clear-cut ways for people to fight back if they believe their removed content was not a true violation. These instances are monitored and reported and live in our biannual transparency report. 

The suggestion to use automated filters for issues of copyright is short-sighted at best and harmful at worst. Automated filters are unable to determine whether a use should be considered “fair use” under the law and are unable to determine whether a use is authorized by a license agreement. They are unable to distinguish legitimate parody, satire, or even your own personal pictures that could be matched with similar photographs that have been protected by someone else. We don’t believe that technology should replace human judgment. Tumblr is and always has been a place for creative expression, and these new regulations would only make it harder for you to express yourself with the freedom and clarity you do so now. 

If you access Tumblr from Europe and want to act, you can find more information on saveyourinternet.eu.

This is when I’m hyped up and motivated about something and I aim to just get the idea out and not… focus on the quality that much so my apologies if some pages look like less quality.

This is just my own personal take on how the Pure Vessel lost their arm (or rather why). I have originally planned for this to have Pale King’s inner dialog but I feel like no text stays true to his seemingly stoic nature. (we all know that’s not the case otherwise wouldn’t have gems like path of pain…..)

I would like to mention that THIS ART AND THE COMIC THAT FOLLOWS IT UP were one of the many Hollow Knight comic inspirations that lead me to draw this, as well as @occasionally-pale-king interpretation (tho my art doesn’t really show it) and design for the Pale King so thank you very much for it~

Keep being an awesome, inspiring and especially fun community through upcoming Silksong too~

Chapter Five of a Fatal_Error has Occurred will start in a few weeks!

Hey folks! I’m really excited about how well Chapter Four came together and how well-received the ending to it was! It was purposely a very abstract chapter in terms of presentation and while I had a lot of fun creating it I know that kind of format isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, so I especially appreciated everyone’s patience and willingness to just see what happens next ^_^ Kind of just thinking forward I don’t think any future chapters will end up being quite as abstract as Chapter Four was. So that’s something to look forward to!

As excited as I am to rush into Chapter Five and keep the story rolling it’s going to take a few weeks to make sure I’m fully prepared for the next chunk of the story. I feel a little bad for leaving things on such a cliffhanger but I like to think that that just means I need to be extra certain that the delivery of the next chapter is extra worth the wait :)

But, some very good news! We’ve hit a point where I can start working on, releasing, and progressing quite a few side comics that I couldn’t before because either there’d be spoilers for things that hadn’t happened yet or things that wouldn’t make sense yet because we didn’t hit on it in the main comic. There’s also at least one side comic that, like File Not Found, needs to be completed before Chapter Five can end. I’ve also got a couple of smaller things I’d like to take care of that are blog related (such as a full reference for Patch) so rest assured, there’ll be stuff going on in the meantime.

Like always, I’m super duper grateful for your kindness, patience, and support, and for your excitement for wherever the story takes us next! We’re still some ways away but like…the end is in sight, ya’ll. Main comic-wise we’re half way through the story, which is phenomenal. And while I’d reaaaaalllly, realllllyyyyyy not like to take another four years to finish this story I’m committed to sticking the landing with this thing, no matter how long it takes.

Ya’ll will know Chapter Five is ready to go when I post the cover page for it :)

Have a great day! <3
