posted about this on my personal blog but realised I should probably say something here too:

I’m currently working on setting up a free and easy to use system for self hosting a static blog, which with the help of bridgyfed will be able to be followed from the fediverse and from bluesky.

The plan is to convert and re-host my tumblr posts on my own website, and I will be making a post about how you can do the same when I’ve got it all set up. Post conversion is based on the json files gotten from a backup created with tumblr-utils, so you’ll need to back up your blog with the json flag (e.g. “tumblr-backup -j diosmaden”).

But with tumblr being maintained by roughly 25 people at the moment and today’s issues with blogs getting flagged, which seems to be some new kind of bug of which there basically no team at all to fix, I’m a mite concerned as to whether or not I’ll get this done before tumblr gets unusable.

So I will be posting an update about it on bluesky, mastodon, toyhouse, and on my own website when I’m done. I recommend you check the last link out especially as it includes an explanation of RSS and some recommendations on feed readers you can check out. Getting familiar with RSS is by far the best way you have of keeping connected with people and their websites as they scatter across the internet!

havent had time to draw w any regularity since december so to try shake off the dust i drew the girlies at various different angles! i was going to do the same number of angles for both but i got a bit #tired if i am honest with u so i am not going to finish them all and tempest just doesnt get to be as rotated as callie. sorry girl

I don’t believe I ever made a proper post announcing this but seeing as I’m done with my programming course and getting back into the swing of commissions now is as good a time as any—if you like my animations, I do take commissions! They start at £100/second (complexity depending), and these animations are all 2.75 - 3 seconds long, so around £300ish.

If you can’t commission me but like my work, boosts would be appreciated! Thank you 😊

So when I originally finished this animation I exported the low res gif and then when I hit save 😔 CSP crashed 😔 n i lost the entire hair animation id done bc the auto saves failed for some reason…

but I finally had time to sit down and redo what I lost today, as well as fix and rework some stuff that was bugging me, so woe Callie be upon ye again :)
