fandom participation in the 2007 wga strike: some notes
Tumblr media
fans4writers.com (a website that is still live, though most links are broken!) was a fandom grassroots organization, originating primarily in Firefly/Whedonverse fandom
fans4writers emphasizes cross-fandom solidarity (all fans of all writers) with the very catchy logo "don't write until it's right"!
that group was responsible for pizza deliveries to picket lines, joining in picketing efforts, mass mailing pencils to studios, and sky writing in support of the wga during the tournament of roses parade. (reportedly, universal studios called the cops on a pencil delivery.)
the website had these (honestly still very good) FAQ for joining in picketing. [I'm currently aware (may 5) that the WGA is open to non-members picketing as well, and some "pre-WGA" (aka aspiring writers) are even organizing carpools on Twitter!]
fans4writers also had forums for organizing purposes (that are now dead, that I wish I could view and archive) and a still-existing but unused Twitter account with updates.
I ask again: who in the 2023 fandom landscape has the balls to organize fandom in support of the WGA?? Whedonverse and Battlestar Galactica fans were crowdsourcing pizza funds, creating auctions, putting together this website and all its outreaches and mf'ing official press releases... where can we find that energy now?
note: I was 10 years old when the 2007 strike happened; I just like digging on the Internet and may have gotten things wrong about these organizations and am open to corrections from anyone who was present and in the trenches. In fact, if you were a part of the aforementioned organizing efforts, I would LOVE to chat with you!
[read the WGA's official statement on the strike here and always get your strike news from official WGA sources. Don't trust the biased trade sources or social media.]

Magireco Media Masterlink
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Km-seD0w6MuR5Feyu3BjbAGijp1Qodnc33zFH0YE_RM/edit#gid=1590573897
This link is a collection of links to various non-game Magia Record works:
Main Story Manga (including English)
Another Story Manga (including English)
Comic Anthology
Anime Guidebooks
Magia Archive
Magirepo (book release with extra commentary and illustrations)
Posters from the Megami Magazine
The Stage Play
Anime (including bonus material like promos and creditless OPs)
Music (Music Collection vol.1&2, anime OSTs, single releases like Ennsou)
F4 FanFes 2021′s Magia Record segment
Twitter promos
Most of those links are from Nyaa, though a decent amount offers direct links as well.
I also made a back-up MediaFire folder with most of those (skipping the anime and music for storage/copyright flagging reasons). However, I would prefer its usage to be limited to situations like original links expiring or a lack of seeds on Nyaa. People who originally uploaded these often put a lot of money and time into those, and I do not wish to take away from them.
EDIT: The folder was moved to Google Drive instead due to its superior download speeds, storage capabilities and free full-folder downloads (MediaFire requires a premium account for the second). The MediaFire link will continue to work, however it will likely *not* be updated. The Google Drive resource has already been expanded with F4 Fanfes 2021, anime season 1 booklet/box scans and music.
For other sources, make sure to also check out this earlier Tumblr post of mine, which also links more general PMMM resources and Magia Record game asset mirrors, though it is significantly more chaotic.
Currently missing positions:
NewType magazine scans
Febri vol. 44 scans
Booklet/box scans for anime seasons 2&3
10th Anniversary Book volumes 1-3 (they are PMMM-centric, though they contain *some* Magia Record content)
The transformation artbooks

My solution to absolutely everything that troubles me late at night is to yell to the rooftops about whatever has my interest, be it yapping off in my brain or reaching out to my bros. But tonight I decided “here we go I’m giving up my wack ass AU to Tumblr” as my coping skill.
It’s an age swap au mostly centered around DazAtsu (this is your cue to leave if your not here for that) and the 18 Dazai navigating through grief and life in the agency, along side his strange growing feelings towards Atsushi that he just can’t seem to name. the way I see it is that since him and Atsushi have swapped ages, it’s either his past would have taken place much earlier or he would have just skipped the years in hiding and gone straight to the other side like Oda had wished of him.
I’ve actually had two fanfictions written for it so far that have almost NOTHING to do with adjusting to his life because of inconsistency but I will still post the first one as well as the second one hoping I didn’t just copy paste the same exact link twice. Funny story I actually came up with this thanks to taking part in the 2023 DazAtsu week over on twitter before I deleted the app and account, it came with a art piece I’ve featured previously on here, those are (kind of) their designs but those aren’t the updated ones. God now that I’m thinking about it I’ve been cooking this up for MONTHS and haven’t said or done much of anything on it publicly.
Actually while I’m on my tangent here is the doodles, showcasing them mostly
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The next one is an unfinished piece I made for them
Tumblr media
I leave a lot of things unfinished in terms of both art and writing. But, without further adeiu here’s some little facts I managed to keep bouncing in my pinball machine of a brain:
• Dazai had been in contact with Ranpo after Oda’s death and received an offer to become a detective. While waiting by the iconic river for who he thought was Ranpo intrusive thoughts struck him and he jumped into the water. Atsushi fished him out and gave him his coat.
• he’s been stealing that damn huge coat any chance he gets ever since
• Dazai had one of Oda’s shirts, it became a source of comfort after his friend’s death to the point he just hardly took it off.
• Atsushi’s attire, though hardly professional is actually acceptable considering what his ability does to clothes.
• Yosano, Dazai, and Kyouka all share a close somewhat familial bond over their dealings with the port mafia and Mori. Yosano also has a spare key to Dazai’s dorm incase he relapses.
• Dazai still cannot cook for shit no matter how people try to teach him, not even his mentor crush Atsushi is successful in doing so.
• Dazai always feels intimidated by Fukuzawa, and tries his hardest to avoid eye contact with him afraid he’ll disrespect him.
• the dynamics of skk and sskk are mostly unchanged other than sskk being both wiser between themselves, and skk being two feral little shits that need to be put in cages.
not sure if I mentioned Chuuya and Akutagawa being swapped like Dazai and Atsushi. Oops.
Look at that you got to the end, feels good? Bad? Well you got here anyways. I quite enjoyed rambling to the walls of my enclosure hoping to be given a piece of cheese, I actually forgot about my stresses for a moment whilst i ran to go grab my sketches. ‘Twas nice, happy holidays you crazy people who decided to read this post.

On this blog, I repost the same very popular Tweets dozens of other users have also reposted. My goal is to exclusively embed those Tweets, which automatically adds the accessibility feature that is alt text + a link to the original (with few exceptions in which I write the alt text myself, if I feel like a Tweet is notable enough but has apparently been deleted.)
By doing this, I would like to make those popular posts and memes accessible to more people. I would also like to show to more people that Tweet embeds are an option, to hopefully encourage them to use them in the future.
As a reminder, in order to embed a Tweet, all you have to do is paste its link onto your post.
You can easily copy the link of Tweets on either desktop or the app. (The placement can sometimes change on mobile from update to update, but the option should always be accessible via one of the buttons around your Tweet.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then open your fresh tumblr post and paste the link.
Tumblr media
(Link to my post with only this Tweet, in case you like it and want to reblog it.)
If you're sourcing your own brand new Tweet to share to tumblr for any reason, this is arguably quicker and easier to do than taking a screenshot and re-uploading it to tumblr. Please consider this option whenever possible - it's very convenient.
In my case, since my goal is to repost Tweets that are already popular on tumblr, I use Twitter's search function, which works very well (contrary to tumblr's).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you already have a screenshot with the person's username, unless they deleted their account or changed their username, you're certain to find the original. Of course, this is only needed if you're looking for a Tweet to repost, and you won't need to do this if you just happen into a new Tweet you want to share to tumblr.
I encourage anyone to use this instead of screenshots whenever possible, because it's more convenient than having to type the alt text yourself! Even if you don't usually provide alt text, there's no reason not to let it be automatically written for you when it can be. Plus, it leaves a link to the original Tweet, which I feel like makes it more respectful to the user who wrote the funny joke.
Alt text is an accessibility feature that mostly benefits people who use screen-readers because they, for one reason or another, can't read the words on their screen. Especially when the image is the right size - so the "alt" button doesn't come in the way - as it is automatically generated by pasting the Twitter link, there's no harm in having it there whatsoever. All it does is include more people.
Accessibility isn't a one-size-fits-all. Some users may benefit more from Image descriptions that are written in the body of the post. However, alt text is a commonly accepted and convenient accessibility feature. On top of that, accessibility for the disabled can oftentimes wind up benefiting everyone - for example, being able to click the "alt" button allows people to see the contents of the image even if they have a poor connection and the image won't load. Having a text description of any image also makes it easier to find in the future, even with tumblr's terrible search function.
I hope this post can encourage more people to include alt text and/or image descriptions more often. Even if you don't have time to include alt text all the time, you should take advantage of these embeds, which do it for you. A funny Tweet repost is the type of post to become very popular, so it's sure to land on someone's feed who wishes they could know what it says but can't when it's just an undescribed image.
(PS: as of currently, there is a slight issue in that the contents of described images included in the Tweet, or Tweets being quoted, aren't copied. Now that you know about the Twitter embed option, consider contacting support in one way or another to let them know you'd like these contents to be added to Twitter embeds. It's a really great option for simple text Tweets, and it could easily include even more Tweets. I know you just found out about it, so if you just want to use the function for those text Tweets for now, it's okay - please just consider it!)

Welcome to the Library of Taennie
Hello,
Tumblr media
This is an archive for all Taennie (relationship), Taehyung (individual) and Jennie (individual) content I come across and want to archive.
This will include content from: tiktok, twitter, instagram, youtube, wattpad such as edits, tweets, posts/stories, videos and fics. As said in the name it is a library. Meaning the focus is not on creating new content, but instead to document and store already existing Taennie content. I am a lover of the tagging system on tumblr (the reason why I am using this hellsite (affectionate)) so I will use it to my hearts content to properly tag all content.
I will always (or at least try my best to) give credit and provide the link of the original source. And I encourage all to please give love and support to the original content creators.
This is not a constant update account, but one where I want to keep record of Taennie content I love. I will update this account whenever I wish as my activeness will fluctuate.
If you would like to submit any Taennie content you come across or talk about them, kindly send me an ask or a message!
To add, hate will not be tolerated or entertained. The block button is right there, kindly use it. (I won't discuss ship wars and won't invite that stuff into this space. This is a Taehyung and Jennie centred blog).
A little about me: I'm an armyblink. A proud OT7 and OT4 fan. I became an army in The most beautiful moment in life pt. 1 era. And was a blink since debut. Of course the past years as I've grown I haven't been as involved in either of their content and have become more music focused. But those are my boys and my girls and I will love and support all of them always. And that's all you really need to know about me.
I am so happy for Jennie and Taehyung and I am rooting for them hard! They deserve all the happiness in the world! Oh to love and be loved 🥺!
Please enjoy the contents of this blog. And let us support Taehyung and Jennie, both individually and together!
note: It's kind of hard to track down the gif above as I found it on twitter and there's no watermark. I believe it was made by: THV_JENNIE_MY_LOVE on tenor.com. (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong)

Twitter Advertising In 2021
This is the first venture of mine where I will really be attempting to drive good free traffic. It actually HAS to work if I can get enough quality, targeted site visitors to it, and this web site may make BILLIONS.

In many ways, the aesthetic of the photographs and movies are much more necessary. You can then pick and choose which of those hashtags to add you to your publish. All you want to do is click on “Insert Hashtags” and they’ll be added to the top of your caption. The reality is that influencer advertising rates still differ extensively among influencers. One of one of the best ways to boost your viewership is is to promise limited-time-only promotions that you’re solely going to offer through the broadcast.

[NEWS] Fire Force: Two Performances for the "Enn Enn no Shouboutai Stage -Hakai no Hana, Souzou no Oto-" have been Cancelled
Yesterday (January 27, 2022), cancellations of the first and second "Fire Force Stage -Hakai no Hana, Souzou no Oto-" performance in Osaka (scheduled for January 27, 2022 and January 28, 2022) were announced because someone on the cast and crew had fallen sick. Thus far, no information has been released about the identity of the company member who has fallen sick and about what the illness is.
The status of the remaining performances remains unconfirmed.
I apologise for the personal tone of this update because I would also like to raise an awareness of the current COVID-19 situation in Japan, and how it's still affecting the 2.5D industry. Japan has seen a sharp increase in their number of COVID-19 infections since the start of this year, jumping from approximately 500 daily cases nationwide in December 2021 to approximately 78,000 daily cases nationwide in January 2022. In Osaka alone (where the Fire Force Stage is having their performances), approximately 9,000 daily cases have been recorded.
Due to the worsening COVID-19 situation, many stageplays and events have been cancelled (and are still facing the risk of cancellation) with company members falling ill and testing positive for COVID-19. This comes directly after the complete lockdown of the 2.5D industry and entertainment industry in 2020 and the many cancellations in 2021.
For anyone who is able and would like to show some financial support, the Blu-ray/DVD and goods for the "Fire Force Stage -Hakai no Hana, Souzou no Oto-" are available for pre-order/sale.
To pre-order the Blu-ray/DVD, please refer to this link: HERE
To purchase the goods, please refer to this link: HERE
The live and archive streams for the final performance (scheduled for January 30, 2022) is also currently available for sale. To purchase the streams, please refer to this link: HERE
NOTE:
[1] VPN may be required to access the sites.
[2] For more information about proxy services available in Japan that you can use to purchase the Blu-ray/DVD, goods and streams, please refer to this link: HERE
I would, however, like to reiterate that these are challenging circumstances for all of us, not just the 2.5D industry in Japan, so for those who can’t afford it, please don’t feel pressured by this post, and I hope that everyone will continue to do their best in hanging in there until we have overcome this *HUGGLES*
Instead, if anyone would like to show the cast and crew some support and love, listed below are the official social media accounts for Sato Ryuji and the production.

How Safe is your Fitness Tech? - Allison Puglisi
In one of this week’s tweets, I discussed the new children’s smartwatch that predators use to target children. While I don’t have a child to worry about, this got me thinking: I may not be using this specific technology, but who’s to say that a stalker couldn’t just as easily find me through my wearable tech or the apps I use every day? One of the main privacy concerns for those using smartphones is the common location tracking feature. This can be utilized through exercise apps which use GPS to track your running route. 
Why Use Run Tracking Apps?
A quick search in the Apple App Store for “running app” returns hundreds of results that boast their ability to track your distance and specific route for you to fully comprehend and analyze the results of your run. Over the years of my running journey (which looks something like this: start running, lose motivation, start again, and so on and so on) I’ve tried tons of these apps to chart my route around the neighborhood to check my pace and see what distance I can add by going into little cul-de-sacs and venturing into different neighborhoods. One recent social media trend has been to post your running routes after completion to celebrate the distance, pace, or new route tried out to share with your following. By all accounts, one might think that if you have a smartphone that can track that data and are making admirable progress, why not post about it? 
Tumblr media
What’s the Risk?
A Twitter thread from August 2020 first noted the dangers of posting your running route online, and within hours of the Tweet’s publication, hundreds of women were sharing horror stories of stalkers tracking women via these public profiles. Many running apps will save and share your route history for you to track your progress. The popular MapMyRun (link) stores the information on your run history in its “Explore” tab, making it easy for anybody on the app to see all of your previous runs and map out where you could plausibly be. Other apps may not publicize the data, but users will post pictures of their routes online because they are proud of their physical accomplishment. While celebrating achievements is healthy, for some people the publication of running routes may open the door for stalkers or other malicious individuals to learn your constant whereabouts or home address. 
In one such instance documented by a British blogger, author Rosie Spinks describes her struggle with a stalker on a run-tracking app, even despite her heightened privacy security on the app. The logistics of the app meant that even though some of her statistics would not be publicized, her running route and other information was published on the main app “leaderboard” where anybody could like or observe her workouts. This lack of privacy is just one of the main things women and other victims have to contend with.
Tumblr media
What to Do About It?
Fantastic question. I wish I was the be-all, end-all genius who could solve the ever-present problem of womens’ safety in the age of technology. However, there are some things everyone can do right now to ensure your safety moving forward.
Update your privacy settings. No, really-- go double check them. You might just find that what you think is hiding your data from public view is actually only protecting a small portion of your information. If it says anything about sharing on leaderboards, community forums, or with your followers, think twice. Better to err on the side of caution.
Stop posting your routes on Facebook! We’re all so proud that you’ve reached your new highest distance/lowest mile time/saw a beautiful building on the back half of your run. Keep killing it! Just STOP. POSTING. PICTURES. ONLINE. If you truly think that your status update isn’t the same without adding an image, be sure to crop the route you ran out of the picture. You never know which friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend is going to see that at the end of the day.
Always stay alert. You can’t control everything that’s happening around you on a run. Even if you take every possible precaution, there are always external variables that may throw you for a loop. Make sure someone you trust knows where you are (Now’s the perfect opportunity for your smartphone! Drop your location!) and keep an eye out for anything that may seem amiss during your run.
It’s a sad truth that many of us, particularly women, have to stay on top of our surroundings while we’re out and about. However, that shouldn’t mean you can’t enjoy your run-- just protect yourself as best you can while doing it, and then go out and kill it!

Thurs 8 Aug
The first copies of the Louis 1883 reached fans! So to get it out of the way, yeah, there's only one really unseen picture, the others are very close versions of the ones we saw, and all of it, interview and pictures, are from TOU promo, not current or even edited to hide the fact that it's outdated info, with the exception (it seems) of three questions tacked on at the end to update. Getting it so late when it was teased as the new content the fandom is so eager for, it's a letdown, though I continue to appreciate the ways they've found to keep him in the news without him having to do more than he's perhaps ready for. That said! It does have a lot of good stuff! The old: he talks about the way he writes, that it's less structured than, as he describes it, more experienced songwriters, he says many times how much fan support drives him and tidily deflects an effort to get him to talk about 'crazy groupies,' saying that seeing familiar faces is comforting to him, he refers to his Sony imprint label in the present tense and says he finds new music via BBC Introducing, SoundCloud, and YouTube, talks about his love for guitar-driven pop, says it would be amazing to be on a festival bill at some point (awwww yay), and that his LA house was robbed and he doesn't like LA. And a lot more. Read it! The new: he's grateful for the fans' support the last few months, and, in the only actual news in the piece, he says LT1 will be out early next year.
An extremely cranky vacationer from Liverpool, feeling that his Scottish sojourn was being ruined by Harry shooting his video in the seaside town of St Abbs, tweeted out the location to all the major tabloids and told us that Harry was filming on a boat (everyone: nAuTIcaL tHeME???) in a white jumpsuit with drones, and then promptly had their account suspended. Other vacationers chimed in that it was annoying that they were being prevented from getting crab rolls, fans headed over and got things signed and took video, but only of Harry leaving: hopefully they were done anyway. Where will Carmen Sandiego Styles pop up next?? Can't wait to find out! He also followed photographer Collier Schorr on ig; she does both fashion and fine art photography and is known for being GAY AF and for playing with gender and sexuality, and twitter is circulating an extremely specific rumored leak about his plans, with no discernable source. Take it as you will (like, is it made up? PROBABLY SO) but it goes like this: "lead single drop the 16th, announcement the 23rd, VMA performance the 27th, Rolling Stone cover Sept, album late Sept/Oct."
Niall had a good good day yesterday (to quote: "yesterday was a good day") getting to share his news and new music, and the excited feedback is still rolling in, as are pictures and pictures and more pictures of him out there glowing and enjoying his moment, love that for him. He also engaged on twitter with a fan who condescendingly tried to get him to denounce Modest (his management and who he runs his golf management company through) which just.... Why. All of it. Why. Do not love that for him. I feel like Niall has really been using his twitter to push and let people know they need to Back Off, and good for him, but unfortunately it is Not Working. ANYWAY he also followed an account called kingofstyle which, no, isn't just another account of Niall's own, it's a page that just posts pics of dapper well dressed men (including Harry!), and today he wishes "our boy Shawn Mendes" a happy birthday and says, "what a great man you're turning into."
Meanwhile, Liam just keeps on liking intensely sexy naked man pics on ig like babe I know they're your friends or whatever but OMG my eyes! He himself is also shirtless on ig today but he's not pouring water sensually into his own mouth and all over his face and over his naked sunlit torso unlike some photos he liked; he is climbing a rope though.
Gigi Hadid is officially publicly linked to someone who is Not Zayn and (in further cringey fan behaviors) Zayn's sister snapped on people harassing her for his whereabouts and status updates.

I just read their "FAQ" and the explanation they give there is just aldlajadka. They even link to another explanation, but it's a suspended twitter account? Like? Weak arguments and a shady source? Pls. I wish more fans would pay attention to stuff like this.
yeah their explanation could do w an update.... esp the link to that suspended twitter acct;; and i mean..... ive seen many a fansites be called sasaeng (and have proof that they are sasaengs) and there is little to no hit to their follower count or wallet, so........ (the greatest hit to a fansite that ive seen in my time is when a stray kids fansite pretended to not b good at english n everyone thot they were so cute for it but then it turned out they were and the whole fandom felt betrayed and unfollowed and im p sure they might have deactivated lmao)
going back to the original point even if theyre not a full-blown sasaeng/stalker, i dont think anyone who has engaged in sasaeng behavior should be supported (are there cases of fansites that have become aware of what theyre doing is bad and stopped doing it? im sure. should they be supported? idk thats up to the individual person to decide ig, i can see either side there) and im aware that’s my personal opinion!! some people may only think that full blown delulu stalkers should be blacklisted and that the occasional ‘oopsie! we’re on the same plane so i took pictures of them!’ or ‘oopsie! we ended up at the same mall and so i took pictures of them!’ is excusable.....

Of course, there’s a giant distinction between ordinary work uneasiness and a serious drawback. “Ask yourself if your frustration is because of the tasks you perform or to workplace politics and social stuff,” says David Blustein, a faculty member of counsel psychological science and a career-development scholar at the capital of Massachusetts College’s kill faculty of Education. If you’re uninterested in the trivialities, take into account a little change between firms inside your trade. If you’re dreading the basics, however, it’s most likely time for bolder measures. from The How To's Site : Https://WWW.ToHowTo.Com/ 2- opt for a brand new Direction
A smart career switch begins with what Blustein describes as “a serious method of introspection.” acknowledge that sure temperament sorts thrive in sure industries. Extroverts and risk-takers typically move as entrepreneurs. Introverts ought to take into account gigs requiring less self-promotion (see: a man of science, engineer, project manager). the foremost vital question? raise yourself that a part of your current job—or your favorite hobby—fulfills you most. Now: however are you able to legitimize that skill? “You need to spot the place wherever your passion meets different people’s wants,” says economic expert Adam Davidson, beginner of NPR’s Planet cash, United Nations agency is writing a book on a way to thrive within the 21st-century economy. “This doesn’t incorporate cold-hearted pragmatism, however, it doesn’t incorporate self-indulgence, either. decision it pragmatic passion”
Adam Fetcher, United Nations agency worked on Barack Obama’s 2 presidential campaigns and for the Department of the inside before ever-changing gears to become Patagonia’s director of world PR and communications, cautions against jumping at the primary new chance that comes to your manner. “Spend time thinking deeply concerning wherever you wish to figure, what kind of organization can offer you the type of life you wish to own,” he says. “If that’s outdoors, with family—whatever it’s that produces you cheerful”
from The How To's Site : Https://WWW.ToHowTo.Com/
In some cases, it’s attainable to create a fast lateral pivot to a brand new trade wherever your talent set has price. If you’re a sales rep who’s uninterested in the company grind however inquisitive about the atmosphere, you’ll target a giant organization just like the Nature Conservancy, that crammed many jobs on its company partnership team last year. Similarly, if you’re attractive, well connected, and a good author, you’re ready for a future public relations, that is presently booming as firms pay less on advertising and a lot of on image. With a small amount of good analysis and artistic thinking, it’s even attainable to game your leisure interests into a dream job. Say you like riding mountain bikes and drinking brewage. that may not seem to be a career, however, careful investigation may lead you to the New Kingdom of Belgium still, primarily based in Fort Collins, Colorado.
from The How To's Site : Https://WWW.ToHowTo.Com/ 3- Get Real
New technologies have resulted in job-market upheaval, substitution unskilled positions with computers and international labor. The upshot: onerous skills and experience area unit as valuable as ever. “The old school stuff like expertise is what very counts,” says Brian Lam, founding the father of product-review web site the Wirecutter, that has employed eight editors and researchers within the past 2 years. “If you wish to induce into a brand new field, you would like to work for many years and become specific at what you are doing”
Start by researching the talents and knowledge needed to land the type of job you’ve got in mind. One straightforward technique is to review abreast of trade trends through trade sources like out of doors distributor (for gigs at gearmakers) and also the Journey Travel Trade Association (for travel gigs). “Seventy p.c of our candidates say they’re avid climbers or outdoors folks,” says Anson Fogel, co-owner of the Salt Lake town production company Camp Four Collective. “That’s nice, however, it doesn’t matter. We’re searching for proficient those who have a body of labor”
Sometimes the most effective route is to travel back to high school. In 2011, Kit Hickey was a self-made underwriter in Boulder, Colorado, however she was a touch enlightened and had a vision for a line of business apparel that used the performance technologies found in out of doors attire. She listed in AN entrepreneurial program at MIT and partnered with another student United Nations agency was a gear designer to launch Ministry of provide. She uses her banking expertise, specializing in the company’s thriving business model, whereas her partner geeks out on materials and construction ways;
Alternatively, you may search out entry-level positions that assist you to develop expertise and connections. as an example, if you’ve got a passion for journey filmmaking however not the résumé to induce employed as a lensman or producer, you may apply to GoPro, that relies in San Mateo, California, and has been hiring content producers to scour the net for footage created with its cameras in specific classes like music, hunting, and fishing;
If your monetary state of affairs won’t enable you to travel back to high school or take a low-paying post, hunt for opportunities at your current job to broaden your skills. “When friends admit applying for jobs they assume area unit out of reach,” says NPR’s Davidson, “I tell them to contemplate what skills they require to own that they don’t have currently. typically it doesn’t take abundant” from The How To's Site : Https://WWW.ToHowTo.Com/ 4- Hunt showing intelligence
Knowing wherever to appear is [*fr1] the battle. One common pitfall of job seekers is to pay all their time troll umbrella job sites like Craigslist and CareerBuilder. recently most firms list openings on their own websites and social-media channels,
Another economical strategy is to concentrate on industry-specific career websites. Gear and attire manufacturers list positions on the out of doors trade Association web site, the action-sports jobs board Malakye.com, and SportsOneSource.com, the web site of the sports equipment Business association. Environmental nonprofits and NGOs like Conservation International and also the Nature Conservancy post on the websites of the Society for Conservation Biology and also the Chronicle of financial aid; from The How To's Site : Https://WWW.ToHowTo.Com/ 5- produce Your on-line Persona
“One of the primary things we tend to do once we get a résumé is looking into that person’s LinkedIn profile and Facebook page,” says Steve Sullivan, former business executive of mountain life-style complete Cloudveil and founding father of Jackson, Wyoming, attire company Stio. “With those tools, you get to grasp the person—their contacts, however well connected they’re, however mature they’re. folks ought to be cognizant of public profiles”
Crafting an expert on-line presence needs over simply deleting and untagging party shots. (Though you must try this, too.) For starters produce a LinkedIn page and place some love into it. “Over the course of your operating life, thousands a lot of folks area unit getting to see your LinkedIn résumé than your real résumé,” says Sree Sreenivasan, a former faculty member of social media at the Columbia Journalism faculty who’s currently a chief digital officer for the Metropolitan depository of Art. pay additional time on the outline section—“It ought to be deep,” says Sreenivasan—and update everything, particularly the recommendations, even once you’re not actively following a brand new job. “Potential employers have confidence in the recommendations,” notes Sreenivasan. “Get them in a very good, considered manner from those who supervise your work after you don’t would like it—like right when you’ve completed a decent project”
You should even have a Twitter account and embrace links in your bio to your home page (or your current employer’s home page) and your LinkedIn account. Follow trade leaders you hope to network with. “Before you reach bent somebody for AN introduction, a referral, or letter of invitation for an affiliation, check that you’re already following that person,” suggests Sreenivasan. Your own tweets ought to contain links to stories concerning the fields you wish to figure in and comments concerning them;
Finally, keep photos for your social media accounts simple—“a close-up, skilled headshot,” says Sreenivasan—unless you’re fishing for a gig with a production company; from The How To's Site : Https://WWW.ToHowTo.Com/ 6- Don’t Toss Your CV
When we asked the executives at leading brands within the out of doors and adventure-sports industries however hiring has modified within the social-media age, all of them gave an equivalent answer: it largely hasn’t. “Don’t go hiring an internet site designer,” says Sreenivasan, “when you must be cleansing up your LinkedIn profile”
7- Stretch Your Network—in Person
The fact that it’s currently really easy to attach with folks digitally truly implies that in-person conferences and private referrals carry a lot of weight than ever. “We crammed thirty p.c of our hires last year through referrals,” says Christina Gee, recruiting manager at Clif Bar in Emeryville, California. GoPro, meanwhile, makes thirty-five p.c of its hires through referrals. Don’t have a private affiliation with a company? create one. “Find out United Nations agency you would like to grasp,” says Shawn Heinrichs, creative person, videographer, and founding father of Blue Sphere Media. “Then work backward till you’ve got one degree of separation thereupon person—someone United Nations agency will get you a gathering.” For Heinrich, a former executive director, this meant sitting down with Peter Knights, founding the father of the non-commercial WildAid, one in all the conservation teams Heinrichs currently produces films for;
Megan Miller, founding father of teeny-weeny Foods, recommends cold calls. “I’m a large advocate of taking folks bent occasional,” she says. “They’re sometimes flattered after you say you wish their recommendation. I’m the foremost digital person within the world. I even have a large LinkedIn network. however there’s no substitute for face time”
from The How To's Site : Https://WWW.ToHowTo.Com/
One surefire thanks to gain access to non-public interactions is by attending trade shows and different events wherever managers area unit on the lookout for brand spanking new talent. “Actively recruiting at conferences is perhaps the most effective thanks to noticing the most effective folks,” says M. Sanjayan, govt VP of Conservation International. Gear firms converge at the time period out of doors distributor, whereas travel outfitters gather at the journey Travel World Summit. Conservation teams recruit at events just like the poplar Environmental Forum and also the International Congress for Conservation Biology;
But you don’t get to expect the large summit. whether or not you reside in the state capital or Anchorage, you’ll be able to notice gatherings of individuals with similar skilled interests victimization forums like MeetUp and FindSpark. “Going to entrepreneurial and startup conferences very helped ME,” says Ministry of Supply’s Kit Hickey, United Nations agency visited each gathering she may when moving to the capital of Massachusetts to attend grad school. “I saw folks creating similar changes. It created ME to feel less alone”
Finally, once networking, confine mind that you’re operating, not dating. “Don’t lay out all of your woes and troubles,” says Sanjayan. “I can’t tell you the way many of us come back to speak to ME and say most that I’m pretty certain I won’t be recommending them to anyone else. Remember: your goal is to induce into the interview space.” from The How To's Site : Https://WWW.ToHowTo.Com/ 8- Seal the Deal
Once you secure AN interview, prepare. got wind of a Google news alert for the corporate, check up on press coverage from the past 5 years and reach bent those who have worked there and rapt on. you wish to travel in knowing your stuff. “Not being ready a couple of company’s history—that wouldn’t foretell well here,” says Pearce of the North Face. Also, bring a bottle of water and a few energy bars. geographic area interviews last a full day. Potential GoPro media-team hires area unit brought sure a long test;
After your interview, send a thank-you e-mail—fast. “I’d even suggest drafting a rough follow-up before the interview,” says Emily Miethner, founding father of FindSpark. “Then quickly add in thoughts on specific stuff you mentioned to alter it.” Miethner additionally suggests making another touchpoint outside e-mail. “This can be adding the person you interviewed with on LinkedIn—send a custom message—or retweeting a tweet from the corporate,” she says.
If you aren’t offered the work, concentrate on the actual fact that stepping into the door was a large step. Acquit yourself professionally and likelihood is that you’ll get a re-evaluation down the road. “The 1st job I applied for out of school, I got AN interview however didn’t land the work,” says Sanjayan. “The second job I applied for, with the character Conservancy, I didn’t even create the interview cut.” however he unbroken in-tuned with the organization and was eventually brought on as a lead human.
If you are doing to get a suggestion, don’t take it right away: this can be the time to barter things like longer off or the flexibility to figure remotely. Once you’re employed, your leverage is gone;.

A social media marketing agency fires me while being sick without any notice or explanation.
I worked for a social media marketing company. I'd been there almost a year and hadn't used any of my 14 paid days off. I was the only contract worker, but I didn't complain. The money was ok, paid the bills, and my degree was not in business.
It's Saturday. I got from a whole day of running errands, it was raining and nasty, I was wet and cold, I felt sick. I emailed to my team and HR that I'm feeling sick and will be updating them. I felt it's important because there was a big pitch the whole agency was bending over. On Sunday, I felt it in my bones. I wrote another email. I didn't want anyone else to get sick before the pitch. Monday morning I was pouring gallons of shit water from my ass. I threw up twice, couldn't eat, couldn't swallow even water, couldn't sleep, couldn't move, no health insurance. I sent another email on Monday saying I feel worse, sent what I was able to finish to my manager and the team and wished luck with the pitch.
It was strange that this time I didn't get any, "get better," "sorry to hear that," etc. I was so sick I wasn't thinking too deeply about it though and decided to mindlessly binge on Netflix. Tuesday morning, I'm asking if all looks bueno. No response. I'm texting to my manager because this wasn't normal. No response. Then, I couldn't log in to my email. I got locked out from my work email. Doesn't take a genius to notice that something wacky has been going on. I got all my shit from Dropbox and whatever accounts I had on an external hard drive. I started making peace with the thought that I'm being fired. I just didn't know what for.
The next morning I see an email from HR with the subject "Effective Immediately" and saying, "Due to your repeated absences and your abuse of the paid time off, it was decided to terminate your employment." That's it. No further instructions, nothing. I tried to call my manager, but he didn't answer. He texted me later that day to give the address where my belongings should be delivered. I was still sick on Thursday. On Monday I got an email asking to sign it and send back. No instruction if I should do it by mail or email, just a lot of words reminding me what was in my contract: confidentiality blah blah blah, non-compete clauses blah blah blah, company's intellectual property blah blah blah. It looked like it was copied from an online template. I asked HR to send me a copy of my contract as everything was on my company's laptop. The contract was worded the way that working or even contacting with their clients could put me in legal trouble.
I got another job almost 2 months later. With maxed out credit cards and a $3K loan, I felt little helpless. They treated me like a piece of trash. After winning the pitch the agency has been bragging on social media about how amazing and millennial they are. On the company's social accounts they were trying hard to turn every little thing into a huge win. For me, every day was harder because the new job sucked, I felt excluded and didn't feel I'm the part of the culture. So, I've been checking the old agency's social media like a maniac. It got so bad I had to delete the Facebook app from my phone and install some chrome extensions to prevent me from visiting their social media. I stopped going to the gym, was eating unhealthy, broke up with a girl who actually liked me over a stupid argument, was stressed, and felt like a loser.
One day they posted a blog with so much praise for themselves... I cringed. While scrolling through everything people were saying, I realized that their pride blinded them to anything but positive feedback.
After 3 months since I got fired, my bank offered me skip a pay or something like that for 2 next months and I used the $700 to buy as many fake likes, follows, views, etc., as it was possible. From 2K they went to almost 50K followers on Facebook. They were getting 300-500 likes on their Instagram posts, their Twitter also jumped high from only 200 followers. After a week the $700 got me, I decided to go full in for another week and added $500 to the revenge budget. I was more selective, knew more, had better sites for cheaper, I was posting comments everywhere praising the agency, I even created a fake site which was "featuring" the best social media campaigns and ads. I created fake 2 months worth of content in the form of "awards," "special features," and fake polls, and then featured this agency on the front page. Every comment was retweeted, shared, commented back, thanked. It seemed they enjoy the ride a lot. From 1-2 post a week before I got fired they jumped to 2-3 posts a day on every platform. They were so full of themselves they thought they got all of this with their hard work.
2014-2015 was the golden era of Facebook and social media for this type of activities. After over 2 weeks of the hype, suddenly, one of their most cocky posts of theirs got 0 likes. Null. These fools were so caught up in the chase of their 'hard-earned' success, they didn't even check who likes their shit, who follows them. Those were bot accounts, all of them probably in India, cheap as hell, from some scammy sites you don't want to associate your business or name with, or even your IP. The agency had almost 120K followers on Facebook at some point. Going from less than 2K followers to 120K, imagine how the engagement went down. All their organic posts were non-existent. The whole agency looked like idiots because it was apparent from the outside it's all weird and that the hype's fake.
They were trying to get that hype back they started writing useless blogs like more pointless and worthless content would fix anything. Their headlines were screaming "clickbait," their posts and the volume of images they were posting looked desperate. One day... Oops, their FB is "not available." They got blocked! Since there were hundreds of thousands of the same cases in review (blocked accounts for similar schemes, etc.) and they had $0 ad spend on that page, they would wait months to get their account back. They had to create a new FB page, a new Instagram account, and after they shared again the link with their "we're honored to be featured..." I replaced the URL to link to another business in San Francisco lol and removed their entry from the front page. I wasn't even aware at the time, but after these 2 weeks of imverybadass behaviour they lost a few crucial employees. I heard a rumor they left the agency in the mid-project and someone inexperienced, with no fucking clue and their own projects had to finish it. It had to be a shit show. The client refused to pay and eventually they lost every single client they had on a regular yearly contract. From 25 employees, in less than 1 year, they went to 9! I don't think they realize even now the ratios of likes to comments was suspicious. 2K likes on a photo post with only a single comment saying "Amazing!", posted by Rakesh Johnson from nowhere, with the profile pic of an anime character...? You need to be a true-born idiot to buy that, and they were "an agency."
They still have fewer FB followers than they started with before firing me. They gave up on Twitter. Instagram is also bad, no engagement, no regular posts. Overall, $1,200 bought me back my self-esteem, which I consider money wisely spent.
As of today, I've been talking to that girl I screwed up with and things are looking promising. I'm making more than my previous manager (according to Glassdoor), and he is still with the same company, not having any client on any sort of retainer fee. Only small projects, zero social media activity, almost a dead company, with no talent wanting to work there, and a bad reputation in the area Imagine, a social media marketing company gets kick out from Facebook... laughable. Bunch of egocentric people who got the taste of their own bitter piss. Sometimes I really want to add another nail in the coffin, but I'm a better man now. I moved on and don't consider them worthy of my time. This post is my final goodbye to this issue.
TL/DR: A social media marketing agency fired me for being sick. Got their ass kicked by their own ego and have been recovering ever since.

The Twitter Side!
As requested from the poll, HiNaegi Festival will be run on Twitter as well! Ill try to run it like I had last time, but I’ll make an attempt to update and look at the Twitter account more frequently!
The account, just like this blog, is @hinaegifestival.
Check under the cut for How I’m using it and Submission Guidelines!
How I’m using the Twitter!
I would like to tweet all fanwork from here to Twitter by sharing the link. I will never repost your work. The only thing that is seen is a small preview for art. If you should see your work reposted or used without permission, report the offender immediately! If you do NOT consent to me sharing the link to your work, I will respect your wishes. I’ll be asking everyone who submits an entry if they would mind me sharing a link to their work to the Hinaegi Festival’s Twitter before I do it!
Submission Guidelines for Twitter
These guidelines are a little more expanded than what was posted from this tweet, but remains mostly the same.
Tag all entries #hinaegifestival2019 . Unlike with Tumblr, I’m only looking at this one hashtag! If I end up missing it, feel free to DM me or tag @hinaegifestival in a reply of your post!
I would like to share all fanwork from Twitter by sharing the link to this blog. I will never repost your work. The only thing that is in the post is a link, and nothing more (no previews). If you should see your work reposted or used without permission, report the offender immediately! If you do NOT consent to me sharing the link to your work, I will not! I shall be asking everyone who submits an entry if they would mind me sharing a link to the HiNaegi Festival’s Tumblr before I do it!
Each fanwork must clearly be either HiNaegi or Kamuegi (romantic or platonic). You can have other characters (and if you are going the platonic route, other pairings), but the focus must be on Makoto Naegi and Hajime Hinata/Izuru Kamukura.
You do not need to do an entry for every day, nor do you have to follow whatever prompt is assigned for that day! We may have a prompt list, but these prompts are completely optional. If you don’t want to do the prompt assigned for that day, or you are simply not inspired for it, make up your own prompt or take a look at other prompts people submitted for the event or have this generator pick a random one for you! Do however many you feel comfortable with, and take your time! If you can’t make it the week of the event, but still wish to participate, it is completely fine to submit your work early. Late uploads are also accepted, even if it is a month late or more. After the week is over, please Direct Message the hinaegifestival Twitter so that I can retweet
All forms of fanwork are accepted! (Fanart, fanfiction, cosplay, text chats, imagines/headcanons, memes, sprite edits, voice acting, animation, stim boards, etc.) However, the fanwork must be entirely yours, or have your sources clearly and correctly credited (ex: no weheartits, zerochans, or pinterests, and no “credit to the artists” or similar) I will block people who don’t credit the original creators, as reposting hurts the community more than it will ever help.
NSFW will be allowed, however please post only links to the full work. If it is fanart, you may put a SFW preview. Consider using sites like privatter to host these kinds of posts! Videos and audio must also be links, not uploaded directly to the Twitter post. If there are any possible triggers that are too much (gore, nudity, etc.) consider this method as well! For any questions on whether your fanwork needs to be linked, or not, or if you are confused on how to link your fanwork for Twitter and add previews, please contact me!
Be respectful to all participants and entries!
The most important rule: have fun! We are all here to celebrate HiNaegi and Kamuegi, and hopefully expand the ship a little more ^^ Level of experience doesn’t matter at all! What does is your participation and willingness to spread the HiNaegi/Kamuegi love :)
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this event, always feel free to send in an ask or message!

FAQ
q: why haven’t you responded to my request or general question?
a: i’m either busy, am actively looking for what you requested, or waiting for the right time to answer or post your question! hang tight. i read everything, i promise.
q: i submitted something i found, but you didn’t respond and/or posted the item without crediting me. why?
a: there are numerous reasons why this could’ve happened. 
i get a lot of submissions for things i’ve already found on my own and have queued up.
your source was incorrect. :(
someone else found the piece and submitted it before you. i credit whoever messages me first. (keep in mind that not everyone wishes to be credited, though.)
i will always respond and offer credit when someone tracks down a garment that i’m stumped on or haven’t gotten to yet. please don’t feel ignored or slighted if i post something that has already been found! i really do appreciate the help no matter what.
q: how do i know if my source is correct?
a: read this! sourcing is very important to me, so please take an extra few minutes to make sure you aren’t giving me the link to a wrong (and often stolen) design.
q: do you accept requests/submissions for guest stars or people like brian w. foster and dani carr?
a: absolutely! i ran an instagram poll and 95% of the 500 people who voted were interested in seeing more people within the critical role circle featured. i’m working on including them more in the feed, so stay tuned.
q: there’s something i remember seeing a cast member wearing, but i don’t know what episode it’s featured in. can i still make a request?
a: yes. i get that we’ve all seen a shirt we loved, but just can’t remember where or when we saw it. try to give me as much information as possible. who wore it, what the design was, etc. even if you don’t remember the episode number, telling me that it’s around the time vox machina visited the feywild at least gives ms a window. requests with little-to-no information usually fall to the bottom of my list, so the more specific you are, the better.
q: there’s something i want to find through the tags, but it’s a popular item the cast member has worn numerous times. how can i find it?
a: i plan on going back and editing posts to include the tags of each episode the garment is worn in. it’s kind of a tedious process, but hopefully this account will be around for a long time and i need some way of tracking popular items. please bear with me as i will be slowly add in these tags.
q: how do you choose what to post?
a: there are a number of things that go into how i queue things. switching it up between cast members is the most important, followed by the type of garment, style, price, and availability. i basically try to mix things up to keep it exciting and inclusive for everybody.
i’m also working backwards, mainly because the streaming quality has improved so much over time. i would rather screencap something worn in episode c1e100 quality than episode c1e10 quality, if that makes sense. it may be a while until i post things from super early episodes. 
q: why do you post things that are no longer available or out of stock?
a: things can always come back or be restocked, plus there are always outlets like poshmark and ebay where you can buy the items secondhand. i got a $40 shirt laura wore for $6 on poshmark! don’t feel discouraged if you see something that’s no longer on its main site, a little patience and digging on the internet go a long way.
q: is there anything you won’t post?
a: i will not post anything worn by orion acaba and this was decided by an overwhelming community vote. other than that, i am very open to anything.
q: will you ever post items that are similar but not exact to what the person is wearing? maybe cheaper versions as well?
a: at this time, i am pretty determined about being 100% accurate, but i have given a lot of thought into eventually including “dupes”. i get that not everyone can buy $180 overalls, so i might try to find a similar and more affordable version. we’ll see! i just need time to figure that all out. i’ve also ran polls to see if people would be interested in some non-related fun posts (ex: what the mighty nein would wear in real life) and everyone has seemed very open to it.
q: i designed something critical role related, can you share it for other critters to see?
a: i am all about supporting my fellow critters, but at this point, i will only share those things occasionally on twitter and instagram stories. i want the main account feed to stay consistent and focus on what the cast members have worn themselves. plus it’s kind of a “if i feature one person, i have to feature everyone” type of situation and the last thing i want to do is hurt people’s feelings.
q: what can i do to be more involved and helpful?
a: so many of you have reached out to me and i’m beyond grateful for it! i will occasionally post about items that i’m stumped on and need help from others to find. as always, submissions and requests are heavily encouraged.
If any of you still have questions, please let me know. This post will be consistently updated when needed.
