#heroofthreefaces

[strawberrypatty]

For AO3 Wrapped: 3, 5

3. What work are you most proud of (regardless of kudos/hits)?

"A Better Daughter or Son", because it is such an epic and complex story.

5. What work of yours got more feedback than you expected?

"Now I Rule You Too". It's a completely new fandom for me and I've only posted one chapter of it, but the reception has been very good.

[paulgadzikowski]

Anyone reading this will almost certainly remember that I was @heroofthreefaces for ten and a half years. Then that blog got terminated 2/19/23 with no notice or explanation, and three days later I started this one. Then on 3/27/23 the first one got reinstated, with no explanation for the termination except a vague, snide remark that portrayal of sexual acts (which had never appeared at heroofthreefaces because I'd had a sideblog for that till 12/17/18) are against the community guidelines adopted 12/17/18. I decided to keep this account for active posting and the original one as an archive.

What you may or may not remember is that, during the three days between the termination of my original blog and the creation of my current blog, I had had a first replacement account which was also terminated, after three days, with no notice or explanation. I also complained to Tumblr about that one as I had about the original one, but I never got any response to the complaints about the termination of the first replacement blog.

Well, I just looked to see who has the URL @d0ct0rwh0 now and my three-day replacement blog from February 2023 is there. Then I successfully logged into it.

I don't know what I'm going to do about this.

A signal boost from Pillowfort for those who follow @heroofthreefaces:

[nosuchthingasaburdenonsociety]

There is no such thing as a burden on society. Society was invented to provide for everyone so that everyone may not just survive but thrive. Science tells us this, anthropology tells us this, biology tells us this, religion tells us this. It's in the sales pitch for every political ideology (except fascism which requires a scapegoat, for fearmongering). The Declaration of Independence highlighted this when it started off by stating that our inalienable rights include (but are not limited to!) life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. If someone is being called a burden on society

the person speaking is a bigot

the person(s) they're speaking of have been failed by society

This is a sideblog for @paulgadzikowski, FAQ for which here.

Because these blogs were created after the implementation of the 2023 Tumblr text editor which operates in some ways very differently than the text editor I used for ten years at @heroofthreefaces, in a manner described on the FAQ for my main blog, posts and reblogs intended for my main often get posted here accidentally. These when discovered are tagged wrong blog, and are then reblogged to my main where they are also tagged wrong blog; or, if they're very freshly reblogged, they're just deleted and the post is re-reblogged over there.

EDIT From the notes on this post: My "fake felon" tag is an evolution starting from the tag I used 2017-2021 which was "fake president". After that for awhile I used "former fake president". Then when the run-up to the 2024 election started picking up steam, what with the man began making known his intent to seize totalitarian power on reelection and what with Project 2025, I switched to "fake tyrant"; and then with the conviction in New York to "fake felon". Though it is a misnomer because he wouldn't be a fake tyrant at all and is hardly a fake felon. I suppose there may be people who think I mean it that way but I don't think I'll change it

EDIT After the trial in New York and the GOP convention I changed it to "sleepy don"

EDIT After the debate with Harris I decided using a nickname is kicking a man when he's down and now I'll just use "donald trump" even though I originally started using a nickname tag because I wanted his name on my blogs as little as possible

[not-caused-by-those-who-love]

Hey— trans!AKOTAS-fan here. It says that there’s nothing at your main blog! What happened?? Are you okay?

A couple of days before the timestamp on this ask on my ask page, @heroofthreefaces was terminated with no notice or explanation. My sideblogs were still here but I couldn't access them because I couldn't log on to my main. I sent a Support request complaining and thirty six days later, about three weeks ago around the end of March, they reinstated heroofthreefaces with no real explanation except a vague reminder that the community rules still prohibit explicit depiction of sex acts. I emailed back asking why that was relevant because I'm pretty sure heroofthreefaces has never had those. It'll probably be another thirty six days before I get an answer if any.

In the meanwhile I created a replacement blog @paulgadzikowski which is what I now consider my primary blog, and am keeping heroofthreefaces and its sideblogs as an archive. I log in here rarely and this is the first time I've seen the notification that there was an ask on it since reinstatement even though the ask was timestamped February 21. I hope you've already caught up with me before you see this.

EDIT 8/27/23 My replacement main blog @paulgadzikowski also has a replacement sideblog @nosuchthingasaburdenonsociety for this sideblog. Aside from this edit I don't expect to update here any more, and I probably ought to have said that in this entry last April because I'm seeing new follower notifications.

[believerindaydreams]

@heroofthreefaces it occurs to me that your cartoons usually show interplane travel as a force for harmony, and while that definitely makes sense, it would also be funny if the Doctor was running around off screen in "Stranger in a Strange Land" trying to help UNIT fend off what appears to be a Martian invasion.

Buffy : Want me to help make it quicker? Spike : Invite me in. Giles : No. It's fairly unlikely. Spike : Oh, damn it! Look, I'm safe. I can't bite anyone. Willow, tell' em what I did. Willow : You said you were gonna kill me, then Buffy. Spike : Yes, bad, but let's skip that part and get to the part where I couldn't bite you.

@heroofthreefaces told me how to use the archive desktop thingy to find out when I actually rejoined tumblr (I was here for a couple of years in the early 10s under another guise) and it turns out it was exactly the same month four and a half years ago that I bailed out of a buddhist cult and I find this satisfying and hilarious

told a friend and they said "if you're going to be involved in a cult it has to be your own" and I replied "yes my oc cult" this url is my occult presence tremble before our eldritch puns

[image description: a handwritten chart of various characters from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, with lines describing the relationships between. The graph is centered on Kira. Starting from the top and going clockwise, they go: Kira and Jadzia are friends with benefits, Jadzia and Worf are married. Kira is in love with Ben, and Ben is married to Kassidy. Kira used to date Bareil. Kira used to date Shakaar. Kira is dating Odo, and Odo is in love with Quark (Odo refuses to admit it). Kira is in love with Keiko and Miles, who are married. Miles has “(elipsis) something” with Julian, who is in love with Garak. Julian used to date Leeta, who is married to Rom. Julian and Ezri are connected with a line that reads “(note 1)”. Note one is at the bottom of the image and reads “Note 1: canonically dated, but I think that Ezri confused platonic & sexual feelings for Julian w/ romantic ones”. Ezri and Worf’s relationship is labeled “complex”. Off to the side, Jake and Nog’s relationship is labeled as QPR. End description].

For the @polyshipweek​ prompt “Mapping the polycule”, my version of the DS9 polycule! I’ll probably re-do it later when I have better access to chart-making software than Markup on my iPad but otherwise I’m fairly satisfied. Otherwise the only other note I have is that apparently between canon and the people I ship Kira with she has a LOT (“lot” in all caps”) of partners.

I will be traveling and with limited internet access from the 13th through the 23rd. During that time I will be unable to respond to any messages or asks that you send me. I’ll still be posting via the queue, but possibly at a lower rate than normal. Also, descriptions for stuff that I post during them are likely to be less detailed.

Here’s a link to my about and DNI, as this post will replace that as my pinned while I’m traveling:

[see-arcane]

Someone I follow and I think you may too @heroofthreefaces got terminated :( When you got terminated I remember it took a few weeks to restore your account. How many emails do you recommend sending for Tumblr to notice them? Would us @-ing @/staff help, if your friends did that?

Technically it was my first email they responded to--it just took a long while. But I know I sent a handful of messages and spaced them out in the interim while I waited with my placeholder(s). Each time (because I had two accounts eaten and now keep the third in place as a backup) I made sure to include all the info about the timeline of events as it went from bad to worse.

If nothing else, it works like a reminder so you don't get buried under the mountain of other things that staff might be slogging through. And yeah, having others tap staff's shoulder and point out, 'Hey our friend just got eaten, can you spit them back up?' shows that it isn't just a thing that can get brushed over and ignored. Knowing that other folks know this has happened and are reaching out helps.

Blog FAQ. Backdated to 2/22/23 from 2/25/23, mostly to see whether it'd work.

I was @heroofthreefaces for ten years. 2/19/23 that blog was terminated without notice or explanation and, at this writing, with no response to the resultant Support contact form sent. Then I was @d0ct0rwh0 for three days. 2/22/23 that blog was deactivated without notice or explanation. EDIT 3/27/23 heroofthreefaces was reinstated without apology or explanation; I elected to retain paulgadzikowski as my primary.

I'll write a proper FAQ here if this blog lasts long enough that the lack bothers me. Otherwise, I'm scarfman at Pillowfort and at Dreamwidth and heroof3faces at Twitter; and my webcomics are Arthur, King of Time and Space and The Hero of Three Faces.

EDIT 3/9/23 Okay, one thing I should probably mention even before I get around to creating a real FAQ is that I now have a sideblog for separating off all the activism and heavy matters reblogs, called @nosuchthingasaburdenonsociety, so that my main is safe for those who come to Tumblr to forget about life for awhile. Except the new text editor has this funny new quirk so posts end up on the wrong blog sometimes. These posts get tagged wrong blog and usually get reblogged onto the correct one where they are also tagged wrong blog.

FAQ: What do you think of the new text editor? I hate it so, so much

EDIT 3/23/23 Well this blog's survived a month. Time for a FAQ I guess. This entry and every entry on this blog are at all times subject to editing for updates, corrections, and simple clarity.

My name's Paul Gadzikowski and I draw the webcomic The Hero of Three Faces, fanfiction crossovers but it's comic strips with stick figures but they're triangles. For nine-plus years I also drew Arthur, King of Time and Space which functionally was, among other things, King Arthur mashed up with my fanfiction.

Every day that there's an update at Three Faces, the next morning at or about 10:00 (all times US Central) I post a link here to it, which gets pinned to the top of the blog. Every evening at 22:00 I post a link to a "rerun", a cartoon in the archives; the rerun only gets pinned during annual summer hiatus of new updates.

Also I post and reblog fannish things. Doctor Who is my favorite and the Doctor is the primary character in Three Faces, because I've always loved crossovers and there's no better literary and literal device to facilite crossovers than a time machine. The top tier in my pantheon of fandoms consists of all Star Treks, Superman and superheroes (these days more screen than print versions), M*A*S*H, Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel, Star Wars, and Dracula Daily; but anything I watch and read may show up in Three Faces or here, and lots of what my Tumblr mutuals watch and read too.

As noted above I have the side blog @nosuchthingasaburdenonsociety. I can be inconsistent about parsing which posts go on which blog, especially now that the nusternucking new text editor defaults to whichever one where you last posted, instead of defaulting to your main like the old text editor did. And there are some serious topics which never did migrate to the sideblog, like racism in fandom and the coronavirus. Most posts are queued, on both blogs, unless I want to respond to something conversationally, or I'm trying to be the first with the joke, or I feel like it. Barring unusual circumstances I'm posting (firing my queue) 24 hours a day and I probably seem most active the day after I've been most active.

This is a list of my most significant personal tags. As a rule I'll try to use the same ones here as I did there in the same way, though there are a few cases where I took advantage of the opportunity to revise.

I don't have a my art tag like some better-planning bloggers have. There's no one tag that'll show you everything. Fancomics, sketches, cartoon reply, cartoons, and lotrh3f daily ought to catch everything on this blog. At heroofthreefaces you'll want the heroofthreefaces art tag FAQ.

fancomics Three Faces posts, new and archive reruns

fan art Three Faces posts (unless it's AKOTAS instead of one of my fandoms) and others' art that's fan art

other's art Fan art and other art, reblogged, not my art

other's stories Others' writing and fanfiction

my stories My writing and fanfiction

tumblr's stories Tumblr-culture stories, fiction and nonfiction

fanfiction Posts that are, or are about, fanfiction, mine or others'

art Professional or classic art

sketches My drawings just for Tumblr

sketching while scrolling My drawings while scrolling Tumblr (any of these will also be tagged sketches)

cartoon reply When I reblog with a comment but it's in the form of a cartoon

character reply When I reblog with a comment in the form of a cartoon where the character is making a direct comment on the post to my readers (any of these will also be tagged cartoon reply)

chat cartoon reply When I illustrate a chat posted by someone else in a reblog on their post (any of these will also be tagged cartoon reply)

cartoons When I post with a comment in the form of a cartoon reprinted from my old fanfiction site retired when I started Three Faces, or from AKOTAS, or that's just not a sketch or a reply

lotrh3f daily In the vein of Dracula Daily, a mashup of The Lord of the Rings and The Hero of Three Faces tracking Frodo's quest according to the calendar dates in Appendix B. See lotrh3f for commentary.

in my style Redraws of others' art in triangle style. Will also be tagged cartoon reply or one of the other tags listed in the catch-all paragraph above

arthur king of time and space, akotas Cartoons from Arthur, King of Time and Space or using AKOTAS characters, or general discussion of AKOTAS, or (obviously) reprints from AKOTAS

atumblr Discussion of AKOTAS surplus of discussion from the AKOTAS site, or cartoons new here not appearing at AKOTAS or Three Faces

hero of three faces Discussion of Three Faces

behind the scenes May be behind the scenes for my work or for screen franchises I watch

maintenance When I go back and change or fix something in multiple comic strips on the Three Faces site, like changing how I draw a given character's hair for every instance in which they appear

math I have a spreadsheet for tracking the chronological order of the comic strips at Three Faces, the chronology of the screen story cycles which appear there, and many other things about it. And one for AKOTAS

reader response My reblog comments on others' reblog comments on my posts and reblogs

friday night clearing out my drafts What it says on the tin

tags tag For tags I want to remember or keep from duplicating

llol "literally laughed out loud" I only ever tagged things "lol" if I literally laughed out loud before Tumblr so here it's a tag

tags later Something I didn't want to tag because it'd give the joke away, or that I put off deciding what to tag, or that I think I have a tag for that I can't find. Once a week I go back and tag any that are more'n a week old

spoilers I tag spoilers (or doctor who spoilers) (or better omens or best omens for season 2 or season 3 respectively of Good Omens, though that's also what I tag for those seasons generally) for the first week after air/publication/whatever. After the first week I don't trouble to remove the tags, if that matters. I also try to tag teasers (teasers and spoilers are different things, that's why there are different words for them) so if you also don't want to see teasers then you can block that too

tagging the crossover franchise would give the joke away What it says on the tin. Used when a Three Faces is first updated in the link post but generally not when it's later linked as a rerun.

wrong blog Here or on the sideblog this tag goes on a post or reblog that's ended up on the other blog than I meant, due to the conditions noted above in the edit dated 3/9/23. Sometimes when I discover the error I also reblog to the other blog, and sometimes when I do that I delete the original accidental reblog, and sometimes I just add the tag and let it go

I try to tag for others to find my posts but mostly I tag a post so hopefully I'll be able to find it again if I want.

Subject to further editing when I remember other things I wrote for the old blog's FAQ. Owait, now that it's back I can just link to it; check it out.

Thanks for reading.

Hey, that picture of the soldier with "UNinvolved in Peace" has a debunking link + two different links to the original creator who has their image stolen and reposted by the OP and others 10 years ago if you want to reblog the corrected version with artists credit and original message (which was UNinvolved with Africa )

gotcha, thanks for letting me know 👍

I was going to add this to a post about demisexuality but it read a lot like a derailment, so it gets its own post.

If someone tells you about an identity and your reaction is, “But everyone is like that!” you should consider two things. One, nothing is universal. Not everyone is like anything. Two, if you feel like that yourself maybe you’re one of the number who are like that.
