ULTRAMagic Alternate is a science fantasy adventure book series about Blood-Wraith & his adventures with the ULTRAMagic Guild in the mysterious Unlight, following their quest to defeat the vile Sepulcher God!
Read it now at 8 books strong with more to come.

Anyways, the fixes for the older ULTRAMagic Alternate books are going fine. And before anyone opens their mouths, yes, these fixes were necessary. ULTRAMagic Chaos definitely needed it's first chapter fixed up.
Still busy, but I'm making good progress.
Hilarious that they think the regime won't eventually turn on them. The regime favors them now, but when things change and the tables turn, these journalists will come screaming and crying to us to save them.
And to that I say no–you made your bed, now lay in it.
Mainstream British journalists have shown zero outrage as Starmer pushes government-mandated on-device scanning of phones.
This is the same government that secretly demanded encryption backdoors from Apple.
No fury, no scrutiny, no defense of press freedom. Even as spyware heads into every pocket, including their own and their sources’.
I'm a bit preoccupied with fixing up the older ULTRAMagic Alternate books at the moment. I got some big plans and I need the books to be the best they can be. Also there are some errors I need to fix.
Regardless I will still find time to call out digital ID and age verification.
You people are advocating for the government to harvest data en masse on children & citizens, which will be stored in centralized databases indefinitely, & will inevitably be leaked on the dark web through data breaches.
OH YEAH, YOU'RE REALLY PUTTING PARENTS BACK IN CONTROL.
Children should not navigate the digital world alone.
The App Store Accountability Act restores parental control by requiring age verification, ensuring parental consent for app downloads, and reinforcing a parent’s role in guiding their child’s digital experience.

Lol, that's one way to get rid of AI–just ID gate the whole damn thing. People will want to take the path of least resistance and leave.
And before people start screaming at me: NO, I do NOT support age verification, I'm just being facetious.
Florida is suing to force OpenAI to verify your age before ChatGPT will talk to you. The catch: there's no way to prove you're an adult without handing over your ID, your face, or being subject to constant surveillance and profiling.
The older books are getting fixes at the moment, and you can check out the posts I made on Patreon to learn more.

April 8th was the birthday of the main character of ULTRAMagic Alternate, so I drew some birthday art for Blood-Wraith. And this time I remembered to do so.

@Fenrirtheicewo1 As long as the filler in question doesn't interrupt an important battle (like actually coming in in the middle of it and saying the battle will be back soon), I have no problem with filler. Shoot, some of the books from my novel series have filler moments.
@GiveMeBanHammer It's a bit annoying when my posts for my art and books don't get any momentum in the algorithm, yet a post where I call out age verification as unconstitutional is picked up immediately.
So my novels and art aren't "high quality posts" I guess? That's kind of hurtful...
@hattree_fork Honestly I think part of the problem is that all these website algorithms keep showing our novels and stories to the wrong people.
No, my science-fantasy, cosmic horror, lore driven novel series is not intended for the YA novel crowd, you know what I mean?
Well, at least I can make ULTRAMagic Alternate announcements easier thanks to the Patreon updates I guess...
I'm fixing up the books again. Check out the post linked below for more details because posting it here would require a thread.

I don't feel like posting art just to appease the algorithm today.
I got stuff to do, like working on ULTRAMagic Alternate and getting newest chapters posted, and I'm not some machine that can just churn out art, especially with personal responsibilities outside of UMAE.
I ended up arguably working on too much yesterday because I needed to get a moment I had been wanting to write for a while out of my head. It was an interaction between two characters that had been set up in ULTRAMagic Interval and further expanded upon in ULTRAMagic Eon 1.
I was working on the next chapter for ULTRAMagic Haze & Chaos yesterday and ended up getting two chapters done with the start of a third chapter because the dialogue between the characters following what just happened in the story ended up being longer than I thought it would.
I love this propaganda being spread that people like me are being paid off...
I'm being paid? I'M BEING PAID!? Well shit, who's paying me then!? I want to know so I can demand a raise, because I'm being paid jack shit.
Good lord, what is this clown world coming to?
Kevin O’Leary says the growing backlash against AI data centers may not be entirely organic.
“Someone is paying for this. They’re organizing it. They’re funding it. They’re spreading the message,” he said, suggesting outside interests could be driving the opposition.
O’Leary has pointed the finger at China, arguing it would benefit from slowing the buildout of infrastructure needed to power America’s AI industry.
“Why wouldn’t China want to stop us from building the infrastructure needed to win the AI race?” he said.
At the same time, many people living near proposed data centers say their concerns have nothing to do with politics or foreign influence.
They only worry about higher energy use, water consumption, environmental impacts, and how these facilities could affect their communities and their bills of course
Well, I didn't expect that last post calling out age verification as unconstitutional to blow up.
I wish my ULTRAMagic Alternate posts would also get that much attention, but hey, I'm glad that post got the attention it did, as obviously free speech and privacy are important.
There is nothing constitutional about age verification. It is a gross violation of the first amendment because it turns free speech into speech with extra steps.
Forcing me to upload my id to"verify my age" so I can speak at all is NOT free speech in any senses of the concept.
Also I was considering doing art commissions to make some money on the side, help my financial situation a bit, but ultimately I've decided against that for a myriad of factors.
I detailed them in an article on my main blogger blog.
