A little something.

Yep! I barely survived! 😮

But it was the most wondrous firework I had ever made!

But now Emi insists that if I post anything about fireworks, I have to put her PSA thing in as well! 🤷‍♀️

So, here it is...

Fireworks safety PSA!

Hey kids, and adults!

Don’t mess with fireworks!

You don’t want to end up like poor misguided Edric!

Or worse!

Remember…

Fireworks are explosives!

Explosives are DANGEROUS!

They are NOT toys…

Edric used his knowledge of potions and fireworks to manufacture fireworks far more powerful than those any self respecting witch could require!

Unfortunately, something went wrong, and he was lucky to survive. I was on hand to help with his healing.

A healer may not be near you!

DON’T TAKE RISKS WITH FIREWORKS!

Stay safe out there witches and witchlets!

Em.🧙🏻🙋🏼‍♀️

My work got stolen and plagerized on ao3 again.

The culprit turned out to be a creep who tried to write me down as a co-author on his fic despite me having never met or spoken to him before.

After the first incident, I just rejected the co-author link and went on with my life.

Then he gifted me a work. I just deleted the email because I didn't want to encourage anything.

Turns out this was a mistake because last night I received a warning from a commenter that someone had posted a fic that was a straight copy and paste of my fic, What Big Claws, as well as the work of others.

The 'author' in question goes by the handle Nick_Uzamaki and the Fic is The Eda Daughter, which, sounds about as Ai generated as you would expect from a cheap copy of someone else's work.

I've left him a comment telling him off, but I thought I would let others know because this person has reportedly not only stolen my work but the work of others as well.

Provided below is a link to the fic in question, feel free to look up the rest of this poster's work to see if you or anyone you know has also had their work copied without permission.

There is unfortunately a new art thief in our midsts.

Here is the original for the Glimmer haircut fan art (two pictures)

Please make sure to give love to the original!

Our wonderful fan creators work so hard to make us beautiful things for free, the least we can do is credit them for their hard work!

That’s it, that’s the announcement.

Important #PSA for those who may be sharing medieval owl memes for #Superb_Owl Sunday as these owls (especially #1) often show up in them, and unfortunately there are unfunny reasons why they look the way it do. :/

#DYK that some medieval bestiary owls carry antisemitic context that may not be obvious to the casual modern viewer? Sadly, these nocturnal owls were used to symbolize Jews living in darkness and rejecting the light of Christ.

Features to watch for include: anthropomorphized faces with beaks made to resemble hooked noses; owl "horns" drawn like devil horns (and the horned hats some Jews had to wear); and "mobbing" by other birds (a real-life behavior, but also used to symbolize attacking a sinner).

If Belos's human form still looks the same even after him being turned into Baja Blast by the Collector, I'm going to be pissed. I want proof that his " death" happened, I want to physically see its effects! I want him scarred and torn up and almost unfamiliar looking even to himself.

This is your daily reminder that ENGAGING YOUR MUTUALS is very important !

Send memes to the people who regularly show up in your ask box, so that they won't get discouraged or felt ignored !

Make sure to return the interest that you're shown (at the best of your possibilities of course) !

Don't forget to read your mutuals' abouts and headcanons (and if you like something in particular, let them know) !

Let's all contribute to the writing experience and make RPing a more collaborative and mutually engaging activity !

[gl1tched-g0th]

Hot take if u need to preface a fic/drawing/general piece of fanart of minors with "They're of age in My State/Country". Maybe making/posting that content isnt such a good idea

[sepublic]

Holy shit you guys… The fact that TOH is up there with evergreens like SpongeBob and Sesame Street is actually insane. Like every other entry here is one of the big mainstream ones that are everlasting and universal but then we got TOH and that’s how you know we’ve made it big to be on that same level. And these are official views no less, so not even counting pirated sites and the like! Damn where’s the bootleg TOH merch???

Harassment PSA

General advisory to be on the lookout for a user by the name "Winxbloomaisha."

They also go by Ecrin Su Coban and ElationWishes. Their current twitter handle is @SuCoban14.

This applies mainly to creators who produce Raeda content as this seems to be this user's primary focus.

Their harassment of me started first on Twitter mid-July this year (2022) under the account name Winxbloomaisha. They were very responsive to my Raeda art and started with simple, benign comments but very quickly devolved into insisting I draw very specific and detailed NSFW scenes. I politely asked them to keep from describing these scenes on my Twitter posts as I will only post full NSFW art on my patreon and did not wish to have such detailed on my posts without my consent. They continued to comment with their requested scenes, still describing them in detail, and then became agitated when I did not post pictures of what they had requested. A friend of mine jumped in at this point, reprimanding them for their behavior, after which they deleted several comments. After informing them that I would block them if they continued, they did back off for a while, but then started up again a short time later. I followed through with the block and deleted their remaining comments off my posts. I have a few screenshots saved from that encounter.

After I blocked them however, they followed me again under the name Ecrin Su Coban (after deleting the original account). I realized this was them because this person spoke in a similar manner to the previous account and also followed at least one Turkish Twitter account. The reason following a Turkish account matters is because the user Winxbloomaisha at one point forgot to run their text through a translator and posted a few comments on my posts in Turkish. They have since said nothing explicit from this account – on Twitter.

They messaged me on Instagram under the name Ecrin Su Coban earlier this month (November) on the same day they commented on my Ao3 fic under Winxbloomaisha. Saying simply they had a question, I responded and they immediately asked I draw Raeda art for them, which I've made fairly clear at this point I won't do. What followed was a comment string where they repeatedly tried to get me to interact with them, at which point my friend again stepped in to reprimand them for their behavior. I have since frozen the threads and turned on comment moderation for the fic, as it appears they enjoy having their comments visible to the public.

Below are the screenshots from the first encounter on Twitter and you can view the Ao3 comment threads I've left up at the bottom of this chapter. (Note: The heart on one comment was an accident, done before fully reading the comment because I tend to automatically heart comments people make to me.)

The reason I have made this post is they have now targeted another creator (screenshot below), specifically with the request to write Raeda fiction. Through asking around we've determined there is at least one other person who has had an encounter with this user as well.

It appears this user intends to continue their behavior, so please be aware of these names in your comment sections.

(Sidenote: Ecrin Su Coban is the name of a popular child actress in Turkey, however through investigation of her socials it is quite clear this girl is not the user of these accounts.)

Hey so just a heads up THIS blogger just got caught tracing and plagerizing a drawing belonging to talented artist @nyxseaa, whom I'm sure many of you already know and love for her awesome toh art.

For reference, THIS image down below is the original drawing by Nyx:

If you see any other posts by this blogger, @rainestorm2556, and you suspect it is another act of theft, please be sure to screenshot it and make sure the original artist is made aware.

I have tried to speak with this blogger about their actions, but they have since blocked me, and I have been told they took their post down. However I have also been told that their PFP is still the same stolen drawing.

This is just a PSA for the rest of the toh fanart community, please make sure others are made aware and be safe out there.

And also drink water (sideeyes you knowingly)
