Hey all! My pal Wazaga has just started a Patreon tip jar! It's a great way to support her and see what she's up to. If you've enjoyed any of the Dino Might Gals comic book covers, you have Wazzy to thank for them. Check out the Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/c/Wazaga She is also doing a cheap sketch sale too! $20 for a knees-up sketch on A5 bristol: https://www.deviantart.com/wazaga/art/Sketch-tober-Sale-1248982703

Many thanks to everyone who reached out to offer advice on my last post. I've got a solution (well, two solutions) that are working for me right now, and I thought I'd share them: 1. Scripts This Github site has scripts you can use to get around IP-based bans. They have been updated as the situation evolves, and may not work forever, but they work for now: https://gist.github.com/mary-ext/6e27b24a83838202908808ad528b3318 2. Bluesky Forks Several forks of Bluesky exist that are unaffected by the IP-based bans. However, they lack any and all updates that have been made since the fork, and the only ones I have been able to get working have some pretty bugged notifications. Better than nothing, but best for folks who primarily lurk: https://deer.social/ 3. VPNs A lot of folks mentioned VPNs, which are not an ideal solution for me for a variety of personal reasons I'd rather not get into. But it seems like ProtonVPN has a free option one could use, and several current users have

Thanks to a stupid and unconstitutional law made by my state, my IP is now blocked from BlueSky. B'sky had been my social media platform of choice due to its lack of Nazis, and I had been steadily transferring most of my online activity over there, so to say that this is an unwelcome development would be an understatement. It's my hope that, either through the law being declared unconstitutional or me managing to get a VPN set up, that I will eventually get back on the site. But for now I'm blocked, and I can't even put up a post explaining the situation. I've really tried to be a force for positivity over there, and tried to boost folks who my reach could help. This is why I urged you all to vote blue 10 months ago, folks. The censorship is coming for us all, and you can't even be sure where you stand from one moment to the next.
