A collection I've been meaning to start. More will be added later.

[PT: MOQAIers, stop using closed symbols as "aesthetics" in your posts. End PT]

Since racism in MOQAI has been a topic more recently, I want to add this. This is not the first time this has been brought up[?] in this community, but I feel it is relevant now so I'm bringing up again. These symbols are not just aesthetics for you to use, and treating it as such is really disrespectful to those that belong to those cultures. You are not a horrible person f you've used these symbols before and didn't know, of course not. However, if you've accidentally done something racist, then you should better yourself and learn to not make that mistake again.

In fact, our own host has been guilty of this when making discord servers. Fae's used closed symbols in channel names, but it was pointed out by someone that these were closed and our host was given resources to check the unicode of a symbol to see where it comes from. Our host didn't question it, and immediately corrected fae's mistake by changing the symbols used in the channel names.

This problem does not apply to just this community, and is all across Tumblr. Especially in "aesthetic" communities like the editblr community. If you use symbols as part of your layout for posting and you have not checked them, please do. It is likely that closed symbols are present in it, and you can very easily correct it. Especially if you got the symbols from a site like This One (a common one we see), which seems to not have much regard for this problem.

To check the unicode of a symbol, you can use This Website, which seems to be the go-to for a lot of people. You simply copy and paste your symbol into the text box and press 'inspect', it tells you stuff such as the code, the name of the symbol, and what unicode block it comes from [the unicode block is important as it easily tells you if it comes from a specific culture.]

There's also a list of some carrds and such that contain non-closed symbols. I'd still check these beforehand with the unicode checker though, as sometimes people can make mistakes.

This Carrd in particular states what closed language symbols are, the issue, some commonly used ones, etc.

Non-Closed Symbols Carrd #1

Open Symbols Carrd

Non-Closed Symbols Carrd #2

Again, check anything with the unicode checker first, the symbols in the Carrds above are not 100% guaranteed to be open.

Feel free to add any more resources if you know of them!!

Using these symbols may seem as "not a big deal" to some people, but it can really water down and disrespect a culture. Especially as language can be a big part of them, a lot of these symbols may have significant cultural and / or religious meanings.

If anyone is part of a culture that often has their symbols used for aesthetics, feel free to add your own input. We are personally not, and would love to hear some insight!

This may not be the most coherent, we are slightly blurry, so excuse that.

Hey everybody, long time no see!

Unfortunately I have been very, very busy these past few months, with work and college, and so I had to make the decision to prioritize work over making silly drawings. :(

But, as a apology for my absence, I come bearing a gift; a brand, spanking new Thunderclan family tree, rewritten from the ground up!

Yes I know I already did this two years ago, but there has been a lot of additional warrior cats content written in those two years, and with it comes many new cats to try in work in (thank you Stormclan's Folly!).

My general mindset on how I make family trees has changed as well! I realized that a lot of my old ones could be... incomprehensible at times, and my old Thunderclan tree was very much guilty of this. I now realize that most people won't be able to recognize characters based off of design alone, especially since many designs were changed, and I should have originally included the characters names too. And so, I decided to fix all of that with the new tree!

I'm very proud of this one, it took about 2 months of work to complete and a lot of scrounging around for characters, so much so that I resorted to the method of; "Well if this character isn't actually named but mentioned in the story, then technically that makes them a separate character..." Which is what happened with characters like Cicadaleap, Snifflekit, and Wiltkit (all of whom are some of the unnamed kittens present in Into the Wild).

Like the last tree: this is a free community resource anyone can use!!! While it does include many of my headcannons and changes, it's also free to change and build upon! Go nuts!!

Also; something that I forgot to add in the key is that if a cat has an * next to their name, it means they appear more than once on the family tree!

With the roleplay community being massive at the moment, this is a sideblog created with the purpose of tracking/compiling every blog dedicated to roleplaying within the Bully fandom, and will be updated as consistently as possible to keep everything up to date.

This shall hopefully enable users to find other roleplay blogs easier!

Canon Character Roleplay Blogs - CLICK HERE OC Roleplay Blogs - CLICK HERE

- Send a ask including the Characters/OC's blogname, full name and clique and it'll be added to the one of the lists linked above.

- Multiple blogs of the same Canon Character will be allowed and advertised here, entitlement/general negative behaviour towards being the only roleplay blog for a certain character is not at all endorsed.

- Similarly, this isn't a place for arguments/negativity or any actual bullying, and I might not always be informed of everything occurring within this space. Please contact this blog privately if there are concerns regarding any blogs/roleplayers that it is promoting.

- Feel free to contact this blog through any method if you desire a certain post of yours reblogged/shared. Whether it's a notable roleplay interaction, a boundary post, or anything you want more eyes on, we'll share it here!

I wanted to put together a post of resources and advice all collected into one spot, so here we go!

And remember, just because you think you live in an area where you are safe from wildfires because "it doesn't happen here" does not mean your risk is zero. Wildfires can happen anywhere in the United States, and their prevalence is increasing. Don't be afraid, just be aware and prepared.

Watch Duty

First and foremost, no matter where you live, I HIGHLY recommend getting the Watch Duty app and turning on alerts for the area you live. It is available on Apple, Android, and just as a website. It will allow you to get push notification updates for any wildfires that start in your area, what's happening with them, evacuation information, shelter information, and more all in one spot. It is now available in all fifty states.

The basic and important functions are all free, but you can also get a paid subscription to access some other neat stuff like a flight tracker to see what the firefighting aircraft are doing, fire progression prediction models, a list of links to local emergency services radio feeds you can listen to, etc.

Local Alerts

Signing up for local alerts is also something you need to do. EVEN IF YOU WERE SIGNED UP BEFORE 2026, RECHECK THAT YOU ARE SIGNED UP. Last year the Code Red system, which was one of the most popular local alert systems, was hacked and many places have since moved to other platforms. This means you may need to sign up again even if you were signed up before.

To find out what your local alert system is and how to sign up, search for your town's emergency management information, check government websites, check local fire department websites, or ask local officials.

Mitigate Mitigate Mitigate

Wildfires are going to happen. The best way to help protect your home and/or your business is to mitigate the impact when a fire starts. Things like defensible space, keeping your roof free of combustible debris, screening vents with metal mesh, and using fire safe plants can all be the difference between saving your home and losing it.

The FireWise program is a great place to get started with mitigation, especially if you are interested in community and neighborhood scale projects.

Another great resource if you want to look at mitigation on the community scale is the trainings offered by Coalitions & Collaboratives.

Be sure to also check what resources are available in your local community. You may be able to grants or other forms of support to help with your own mitigation projects.

Prevent the Fire Before it Starts

Put your campfire all the way out. Maintain your vehicle to prevent sparks. Don't park on or against dry plants. If you are towing, make sure your tow chains aren't dragging. If you have snow chains hung on the bottom of your vehicle anywhere, make sure those aren't dragging.

Obey Fire Restrictions

Fire restrictions are generally done on a city or county level, and can be found on the associated city or county websites. Some places are better about this than others. Most areas use the same general restrictions like no open burning, no fireworks, etc., but some may have more specific restrictions you should be familiar with.

And use common sense. If it is hot, dry, and/or windy, don't do things that could start a fire.

Know How to Report a Wildfire

Reporting a wildfire, or potential wildfire, can be tricky without an address. The BEST way is to provide a latitude/longitude, which can usually be obtained on your phone by opening a map app and dropping a pin where you think the fire is, or using other place finding apps like a compass.

If that's not an option, the closest cross streets and landmarks are good. Try to give the closest town as well, even if it is a good distance away, since there are many duplicate place names so having the closest town will help narrow things down considerably.

Understand Your Insurance

I wish I had a good link for this one, but it's going to vary heavily by state. Everyone is doing something different these days, pushing different legislation, enforcing different things. The best thing you can do for yourself is to read through your current policy(ies), talk to your insurance agent, and look up ongoing reforms in your state/area. But it is better to take the time to understand these things now, ahead of fire season.

Have an Evacuation Plan

Know multiple ways out of your neighborhood AND the area where you work AND anywhere else you spend an extensive amount of time. There is a very, very good chance that in a wildfire emergency your cellphone will lose signal and you will not be able to use a GPS app. Pre-planning your evacuation route--and actually driving it a few times--can be critical.

Keep up to date paper maps in your vehicle as well, and know how to read them, in case you lose cell signal for a more extensive amount of time.

Do not attempt to drive on roads that you and/or your vehicle is not capable of. If you get stuck, that creates a much bigger issue for you, other evacuees, and responders.

If you don't drive, for reasons of disability or otherwise, make a plan with friends or family for how you will get out. If you don't have a good support system, reach out to your local fire department to see if they know of any local services that can help, or if they can just take note of your address.

Have a Go Bag Ready

Last but not least, have a Go Bag ready along with your general preparedness measures. A Go Bag is something with JUST the basics. It is not meant to be everything you could ever need, or a full survival system. It is a backpack with the necessities to get you through the first 24-48 hours of an evacuation so you can get your feet under you and figure out the rest from there.
