hello sealsdaily, I just wanted to say something about the silly seal misinfo which was going on yesterday. I noticed a lot of people in the notes were concerned about humans getting close to seals and touching them, and the seal in the image getting vandalized by humans regardless of what it was. I also saw people wondering if maybe the heart was the edit all along and not being sure what to believe. The seal in the vid (Kyoro :) ) is from a seal sanctuary and just had a silly heart drawn on her by her caretakers who spend a lot of time with the seals and care for them, so though people are well intentioned and you should NOT EVER touch wild seals I want them to know there is nothing to be concerned about in this case.
I wanted to share the vid I saw of the heart being drawn as both proof she’s in a safe environment and also that it was actually just a heart lol, in case you guys would be interested in posting the vid/sharing the tweet :) 🦭
https://x.com/kyorofan1/status/1769083367553663240?s=20 (also big apologies if I’m phrasing this weird or not clearly, I’m very tired so I’m a bit worried I’m not making sense lol!)
Yeah, good call! Here's the video if you can't see it on twitter.

Hi, an “endogenic” refresher course, right here!
1. We introduced the term “endogenic” into the community August 2014, along with some other terms! It was in response to exclusionists (wrongly) complaining about “systems without DID” using “their words”. It was an attempt at creating nonmedicalized terms that any plural system could use. 
2. It was also a way to do away with terms that had fallen into disfavor— specifically “natural systems”, a term that had been in use possibly as early as 1994. It was disliked because people felt it implied that trauma-caused systems were unnatural. “Endogenic” fixed that. 
3. The word “endogenic” was lovingly created to help systems put their experience into words. All it means is “a system not formed by trauma”; it doesn’t imply any other cause, set of beliefs, or experiences. It doesn’t imply the system is nondisordered or doesn’t have trauma. It doesn’t mean any other system’s origins in trauma or dx status is “invalid” or whatever.
4. Though the terms were eventually posted to tumblr, the idea didn’t start there. Tumblr was created in 2007; the concept of systems not caused by trauma has, again, been online since the 90s. Nor was the term created by singlets! We’re a trauma-caused system with DID. 
5. “Endogenic” wasn’t created as an insult or to exclude anyone. We have loved ones who are endogenic. Many of the terms in use now were created by endogenics. They have helped preserve plural history, and defended the community. They are good people, and real systems. The hate they get is completely senseless.
Thanks for coming to our talk. Please stop insulting endogenic systems, and educate yourselves instead, thanks. (Unless it’s just pure malice at this point in which case, fuck off I guess.)
https://endogenichub.weebly.com/ is a decent site to learn more.

I'm not altogether knowledgeable on how to bea mod but I want to help in some way. Is there anything I can do?
Tumblr media
Hello! First off, thank you so much for your interest and for reaching out to us! Both our mod and contributor applications are currently closed, but there are still other ways you can help, both with this charity and with the situation in general!
The first is by submitting fanart and fic requests (once those forms are open) here with us (@twst-charity) by sending a screenshot/receipt of a donation made to one of three charities (Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, Medical Aid for Palestine, or Anera).
A very quick, easy, and free way to help is also by visiting this site and clicking the big, red, help button. If you’ve ever wanted to hit a big red button, now is the time to do so. This generates a donation to UNRWA to help Palestine.
Unfortunately, as many have heard by now, even these charities have been struggling to deliver resources to the people of Palestine due to blockades and frozen accounts, etc. Anera seems to continue to be successful in still getting resources where they are most needed, but the situation is constantly changing. We will be continuing to help raise donations in hopes that, as soon as there is an opportunity to do so, those charities will have the means and funds to make a difference.
However! There are still other ways to help Palestine and show your support. The first – and most important - is spreading awareness. Learn what is going on now and has been for the past 75 years. Be aware of propaganda and misinformation, whether purposeful or accidental. Archive tweets and posts and videos so that they cannot be scrubbed from the internet by those hoping to erase evidence of the genocide in Gaza. The importance of spreading the truth cannot be underestimated, especially with Netanyahu and the IOF increasing propaganda. Popular tags to do this include: #CeaseFireInGaza #CeasefireNOW and #FreePalestine!
Signing petitions and contacting representatives is also a good way to show your stance. Unfortunately, this does have some risk, due to organizations like c4n4ry mlssl@n (censored for safety) doxxing people who support Palestine.
Boycotting is another method that has been showing signs of success! The boycotting effort is being directed by the Palestinian BDS National Committee (BNC), which is the Palestinian leaderships of the global Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) Movement. Frankly, far too many brands and celebrities have shown support for Palestine for the average person to avoid all of them. So, a certain few have been picked to have the most impact.
Boycott: Starbucks, McDonalds, Disney+ (which means no TWST microtransactions, y’all!), Domino’s Pizza, Papa John’s, Pizza Hut, Burger King, AXA, Puma, Carrefour, hp, Siemens, Ahava, sodastream, and Israeli businesses. (Note from Mod Ryuu: This does NOT mean a general boycott on all Jewish businesses! Don’t be that person. You’re not helping.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you want to proudly show your support of Palestine IRL – and are safe to do so – a popular method is by wearing a Kufiya, the iconic scarf of Palestine. You can order an authentic Kufiya from Hirbawi at kufiya.org or from Kufiyas Australia at kufiyas.org.au If you’re not in a position where that’s possible, there are two other popular methods. The first is simply by wearing the colors of Palestine: Red, Green, White, and Black. The second ties into those colors and the history of colonialism in Palestine, where once it was illegal to fly the Palestine flag. Instead, people used the watermelon as a symbol to represent the flag. If you need a subtle means of showing support, the watermelon is the way to go.

Resources on the history of Palestine:
Netflix films: Born in Gaza (2014) dir. Hernan Zin, Farha (2021) dir. Darin J. Sallam, A World Not Ours (2012) dir. Mahdi Fleifel
YouTube films (FREE!): Tantura, Killing Gaza, Roadmap to Apartheid, Gaza Fights for Freedom, Born in Gaza, & Killing of Shireen Abu Akleh
Other films: The Present (2020) dir. Farah Nabulsi, Tale of Three Jewels (1995) dir. Michel Khleifi, Chronicle of a Disappearance (1996) dir. Elia Suleiman, Omar (2013) dir. Hany Abu-Assad, The Time That Remains (2009) dir. Elia Suleiman, Ambulance/Gaza (2016) dir. Mohamed Jabaly, Five Broken Cameras (2011) dir. Emad Bumat, 200 Meters (2020), Salt of This Sea (2008) dir. Annemarie Jacir.
Twitter link with these and more for those who still use the bird app:
Other threads (largely from the bird app) with information on how to help and what is happening:
THINGS NOT TO DO:
-Break the boycott, including doing things like ordering a bunch of food and then ditching without paying. You are only making life harder for the minimum wage employees doing their best, not the billionaires behind them.
-Do not spam the tags with posts not related to Palestine, etc. Keep your fandoms in their fandom spaces and so on. Unless, of course, you are doing a charity drive or something similar through your fandom.
-Be antisemitic. DO NOT harass or accuse Jewish people of being responsible for this genocide. Jewish people across the world have been protesting in defense of the Palestinian people even before this latest war began. More than 2/3 of people in Israel disagree with Netanyahu and the IOF based on recent polling.

I don't have time to get into this right now and I'm happy to expand on it later when I have a minute to sit down, but: Do not give your money to zines runs by antis.
Do not participate in zines run by antis.
Do not trust people who have never participated in your fandom until they show up trying to make money off of you.
ZINE DRAMA is not ~fandom drama~. Zines are independent small businesses. Any time money is exchanged, you risk sharing your legal name. Any time physical media is purchased to be mailed, you share your home address.
Do not trust antis with your personal information. It is not safe.
I really try not to engage in drama and bullshit on here because I think it's irresponsible and wastes everyones time, but when this type of money and personal safety is involved I think it's absolutely crucial to be aware of it. This is not drama, it's very basic safety.
Especially in this fucking fandom, with its history. There is a reason we have not had zines, and they would know that if they actually spent time here before trying to monetize your work. I say this due to their handling of it and also in case fandom folks around here don't have zine experience and don't know what red flags to look for, since we haven't had any. There is a mature and responsible way to navigate this new territory and this is absolutely not it.

the en team has to be underpaid or something i can't think of any other reason for all of these translation shenanigans other than just incompetency
Tumblr media
I nicked this screenshot off my friend, apparently they made a typo in Kohane’s birthday announcement. Sorry, Birtyday announcement. For starters I don’t think they proofread anything. I don’t know what’s going on in the TLs team like I get the censorship is probably decided by a higher up but the genuinely bad translations at times and endless typos is just. Ridiculous at this point. I don’t know if they’re underpaid or really bad at their jobs or maybe it’s literally just one guy. Oh yeah and the fact they use the wiki. How is ensekai real.

Karkat: FUCK YOU. A HYDRAULIC ELEVATOR USES A BIG ASS PISTON UNDERNEATH THE BUILDING TO LIFT THE WHOLE SHITTY ELEVATOR CAB, WHICH MEANS IT IS ONLY REALLY GOOD FOR A FEW SHITASS FLOORS. THE ADVANTAGE IS THAT YOU DONT NEED AN ELEVATOR CONTROL ROOM AT THE TOP OF THE FUCKING BUILDING, THOUGH YOU COULD JUST HAVE A WEAK ASS SMALL ONE ON THE ROOF ANYWAY. A TRACTION ELEVATOR, ON THE OTHER HAND, IS THE TYPICAL PULLEY LOOKING ASS ELEVATOR IN EVERY MOVIE EVER. THEY TYPICALLY HAVE 4-8 CABLES, EACH ABLE OF PULLING THE CABS MAXIMUM WEIGHT INDEPENDENTLY, JUST IN CASE SOME UNLUCKY FUCK GETS IN THE ELEVATOR AND THREE OF THE FOUR BITCHES SNAP. IN THE EVENT THAT A REALLY UNLUCKY FUCKER GETS IN THE FUCKING ELEVATOR AND ALL FOUR SNAP, THE ELEVATORS FALLING WILL PULL ON A CORD. NORMALLY WHEN THE ELEVATOR GOES DOWN, THE CORD IS FINE. BUT WHEN THE ELEVATOR STARTS GOING DOWN TOO FUCKING FAST, THE OVERSPEED SHITTER ENGAGES FUCK YOU MODE AND LOCKS SOME CLAMPS IN THE ELEVATOR TO STOP IT IN PLACE. THERES ALSO A COUNTERWEIGHT IN THE ELEVATOR SHAFT THAT WEIGHS A FUCKTON, BUT THE EXACT FUCKTON THE ELEVATOR WEIGHS AT HALF CAPACITY, CAUSE FUCKING PHYSICS THATS WHY. BITCH.

no offence but your blog is clogging up the shane tags
i hear ya and i'm sorry to the community affected. i've been worried about that happening for a long time now. i've mass deleted the fandom tags on every post on this blog, so it shouldn't be a problem anymore. i also will limit fandom-related tags per post so it’s not so crowded. if it helps, please block my blog or the associated tag # ask-shane 🐓

tips for transjapanese asian indv? we’re using subs but we’d love to do more than that!
got our many transjapanese headmates to help with this one ehehe.
this is our transjapanese advice
consume media from japan or ones popular in japan. anime and manga is the most widely known so you will have plenty of others to converse about it with. jdrama, jpop, japanese radio are also worth giving a try to. googling medias that are popular or have dedicated fanbases is also great.
watch things either in the japanese dub with english subs or even english dub with japanese subs.
eating/cooking japanese foods is probably one of the best ways to get into the culture. restaurants can be great if you can find any good ones locally, or traveling to find authentic japanese food places. but what we recommend is finding a local asian market. even if it isnt ran by a japanese person, most are very knowledgeable about japanese foods and can give recommendations and tips with making meals. plus its an amazing way to get involved with your local asian community.
speaking about community, connect with other japanese folks and asians. online is a good starting point for building your confidence around being perceived as cisjapanese. going out locally where you live is a big step to take but is worth is. local asian communities are generally kind and accepting of all asian people. side note that you could end up meeting other transjapanese people irl, since its one of more common transIDs.
participate in japanese holidays. you can do this in the privacy of your own home or go to any local events if you can find them.
take time to learn about japanese fashions and decide on some subcultures you might want to try out. also getting a kimono/yukata can be very helpful.
watch youtube videos about japan and its culture. like for example, the manors that they prioritize or things they like to do for fun.
learning to speak japanese can be hard but might be worth it if you have plans of moving to japan or just want a deeper connection to the culture. but dont feel bad if you cant! not all japanese people outside of japan know the language, and thats valid.
being out and proud about being japanese is great. some people may question it but just know that race is a spectrum and not all asians will look the same.
if you feel racial dysphoria relating to your body then you may consider cosmetic surgery. we dont have much to say about this one since its something we are still researching, but do look into it if its a goal that you have.
thank you for reading this and we hope yalls transition journey goes well! we did sprinkle some infodumping in here since we are also transjapanese and in the middle of our transition. but thats alright because this is an autism safe space so that means we get to info dump yay.

I am aware that Pups+ is currently broken due to the new QoL patch that was just released, many mods are.
I only ask that everyone be patient with modders as we work to update our mods, and if you don’t want to wait you can always downpatch to the last version of Rain World by:
First make a backup of your Rain World save file by navigating to your C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Appdata\LocalLow\Videocult\Rain World and copying your save files to a safe place
Then open the properties window of Rain World by right clicking the game in steam and selecting Properties
Navigate to the betas tab and choose Remix Legacy and opt into it
The game will update to the old version, and you should be able to use your mods again!
Switching back to the latest update is as simple as opting out of any betas by selecting None in the betas tab
We modders thank you for your patience!
