I should draw rouge the bat. But in what circumstance

“Appeal to a wider audience” is corporate lingo for “strip more themes from a piece of media so it’s safer and more sanitized for investors”

My friend sent me this with a "this made me think of you."

I feel so seen.

i love filtering tags like. no. i do not want to see it. goodbye.

and then it is gone forever except for the fact that I am now presented with the most enticing button in the world

I really like this website because somebody will be like “there’s nothing wrong with darting out from behind a parked car into traffic, bootlicker” and you can be like okay this clearly evolved from a valid point about how the US is too car-centric. But something happened to it.

Before the session 0 for your next in-person game, everyone goes to the local game store together and each picks out a set of dice. The more unique, the better! Afterwards, exchange the dice with each other Secret Santa style. Each person must then base their new character on the dice that they received!

I like to pretend they're girlfriends

if a parent hears me swear in front of their kid they should actually not be mad at me they should thank me for giving them an excuse to teach their kid whatever lesson they want about swearing. how is little jimmy gonna ask you what a fuckass bitchwad is unless he hears it from me first

Help wanted

This could be another false alarm or another crisis averted, but if ex-staff are sounding the alarm, I should probably take it seriously. My mind hasn't even been on my personal blogs because I'm currently getting help and step-by-step tutorials for backing up utmvarchive.

I'd said before that if I were code-literate or could afford to hire someone who is, I'd've already cloned the archive off-site. But I'm not code-literate, and I can't afford to hire a web-builder, and that'd be too much to ask someone to do for free.

So what I'm asking for instead is this: if you can, I want help from the utdr community to collect/make docs saving all available credits, dates, lore and references of as many Undertale alternates as possible. If you have the time, please save as many posts and early versions by the original creators as you can.

If you're on pc, you can view the sidepages utmvarchive.tumblr.com/progress to see which alternates I've already covered (reblogged all og posts I could find, linked backups of abandoned/deleted works to docs/wikis/etc and summarized) and which ones I haven't yet. If you're on mobile, you can dm me for a link to the Google doc where I've copied over the indexes, the sidepages and all of tagged/txt (story mode).

The alternates I have links to docs saved are, according to the list at the bottom of citations, Abysstale, Birdtale (pending translation from hangul), Dusttale, Fatal_Error, Fluffytale, Inktale, Killer/Something New, Othertale, Storyshift, Ultratale/Vitaltale, Underfell, Underfresh, Underpray and Underswap. I've lost the link, but there was also a Korean wiki page I'd found with all the details about Negativetale, and my next task will be saving all the links I can to preexisting backups of other saved AU fanworks, such as Underplayer. I already put the doc in its own drive folder, and the utmvarchive doc already has a lot of tabs, so I'm thinking I'll save all those links in another doc.

I made utmvarchive last year because I didn't want the first Undertale AUs to become lost media or else simply forgotten, and I'm very grateful already for the help I'd gotten from @apyrisol, @rainbowut, @what-have-i-unleashed, @wickjump, @xxtha and all the attendees of @thevioletbanquetutmvrp, in sharing lore or sending works that I thought were scrubbed or lost to time; but I was working under the assumption I could take my time and treat this as a hobby. But if I may need to hurry, this is just too much for one user to do by myself. It's just me running the blog, hence why it's had pauses according to my own availability.

UTMV may be more niche, but I want to continue doing my part in media conservation even if my blog's future has become uncertain in recent days. Any help at all would be appreciated.
