Guys, this is really important. Until now, Google collected your data, but did not attach your name to it. Now, they can, and will. This new thing they’re doing will allow them to collect your data across searches, your email, Youtube, Maps, Google+, and all their affiliates, and build a complete profile of YOU.
If that doesn’t bother you, maybe this will: they own and can sell all that data, including anything you create and send (artists and writers, take note).
There is a way you can opt out of this ridiculousness. It’s described in the link, but if you’re still not sure about it, please ask me and I’ll guide you through how to turn all this off.
This is my wake-up call. I’ll be locking down my devices and scaling back what I put through the big Google machine, which means you may see less of me across social media. I’m going to keep researching this, but it may mean in order to keep the rights to my creative work, I’ll have to keep it out of Google’s hands. And that may take some doing.
Duckduckgo is a nontracking search engine….may be worth a try.
So according to the article there is an opt out for this. Instructions are I the last paragraph. I’m on mobile so I’ll edit this more later. EDITED TO INCLUDE OPT OUT INSTRUCTIONS
To opt-out of Google’s identified tracking, visit the Activity controls on Google’s My Account page, and uncheck the box next to “Include Chrome browsing history and activity from websites and apps that use Google services.“ You can also delete past activity from your account.
this post got way longer than i expected but yEAH ANON HOLY SHIT I LOVE LANGUAGE SHENANIGANS WITH A PASSION
Update!!! @rainbowmurderfuckyeah and @faezerdoesntdraw were really kind and offered corrections for the inaccurate japanese!! thank u both so much ( ˘ ³˘)ᕤ✧
@justcecil and i were!!! talking about mchanzo language shenanigans & how hanzo and mccree would teach each other some stuff in their native tongue a nd the two of them would hav,e,,,, very different formal levels
I’ve wanted to illustrate this scene/dialogue from the Borderlands au ever since @aerihead and i talked about it in the au’s beginnings; Hanzo & McCree realizing they care about each other way more than they believed the other did is a fav of mine and so here we are :’))
finally some more characters for my overwatch avatar au! i really wanted to draw genji and hanzo doing the dragon dance from the atla episode ‘the firebending masters’ (of which i used screenshots). hanzo and genji both experienced issues with firebending after their agni kai (which left genji mortally wounded) and they visit the sun warriors together to learn the true meaning of firebending, which i think would really help their relationship.
i struggled with a design for genji. in the end, i combined elements from his young skins and his normal skin (his body is mostly composed of robot parts but covered up with a more ‘avatar’ style of clothing. i also added a combustion bending symbol on his helmet thing because i thought it was cool.
(also don’t fucking touch this post if you like shi///mada//cest, i will know and i will block you)
