i will not be fucking with you if you have any variation of “no politics” “im staying out of this” etc beliefs. EVERYTHING is POLITICAL. You aren’t serious to me.

Some ppl aren't understanding that whitewashing isn't just about skin color. If you're intentionally drawing fanart of a character who has ethnic features and give them eurocentric ones that also counts as whitewashing.

Yoshitaka Amano x GAF festival poster (Illustration Art Fair / China).

It’s funny when someone is so deep in the sauce with a ship that their fanart has become abstracted to the point that it’s barely even the original IP anymore. Those are *your* old men now

I want to remind people that they receive a total of 20 calls per year. If they receive 200 in a single day, they will poop their pants. Call all of them Email all of them Do this every Hour until they understand that your rights are not negotiable

Kinda like The Kiss by Gustav Klimt but Dorohedoro

Made a version of this meme I wanted to see.

Reminder that defending porn is an absolute requirement for the right to free speech. you will lose all autonomy trying to scrub uncomfortable content.

I've seen some vocally anti-AI people recently make an anti-AI post and be surprised there are still pro-AI people following them, and I can explain this; most pro-AI people think they are somehow the exception. the way THEY are using it, SURELY you would take no issue! well, we do. so fuck off.

On Mass Effect, our love scenes -- soft-lit gentle scenes players got after getting to know their love interest for two-thirds of the game -- got called "virtual orgasmic rape" by Fox News. Nothing is respectable enough. They aren't attacking porn. They're attacking intimacy and openness.

Also reminder to romance authors that we only shoot ourselves in the foot if we try to play the "but we're not porn" game. Those of us who write hot/queer already get clipped on a regular basis, but nothing is "respectable" enough. Your turn WILL come.

They officially did it!!!

"weirdos and freaks are ruining fandom spaces" i hate to break it to you but said weirdos and freaks are the reason you have fandom spaces to begin with

Yeeeeeah, no, if you use AI to generate images for you to use as reference for landscape paintings, then you are just an idiot of indescribable proportions. The sheer amount of options available to you and you went with the dumbest one, that kills the planet...

your regular reminder that buying Harry Potter stuff gives money to Rowling and she uses that money directly and in large quantities to fund attacks on trans people no ethical consumption under capitalism and all but “don’t buy Potter stuff” is an extremely easy baseline to follow

While seeing the cancellations on the Patron gives me an unnerving level of anxiety 💀 I'm excited to see our own site become the proper host for everything! Some people on the Patreon didn't even know Trueref.io existed. lol

Each time you ask an AI chatbot a question, it sends a request to a data center and strains an increasingly scarce resource: water. A 🧵on our investigation into how the data centers that power AI are increasingly being built in highly water-stressed places: www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...

A reminder that the UK just passed a transphobic law recently with the help of JK Rowling. A reminder that even though Rowling wasn't a part of making this game, she still gets money from it because it's her series. Don't support this at all, you're just giving her more money to harm trans people.

an ill omen

If you don't enjoy writing, maybe being a writer isn't for you. That's okay! Most people are not writers. People become writers because they like to write. Otherwise they do other things with their time. AI will never solve the fact that you do not like to write.

Did you know I’m not just an author but a sensitivity reader too? I read for a lot of lived experiences but I also have a lot of knowledge about monsters (special interest). You can check out what I read for here: www.azaleacrowley.com/sensitivity-... #diversebooks #sensitivityreading

This is also why people got obsessive over GOT I think. And why ANDOR feels like such good Star Wars. But 99% of exec notes ESPECIALLY for world buildy stuff demand that everything be airtight, explained, bulletproof before a greenlight is even a whisp of a percentage of a possibility

Yall…delete your twitter accounts. Especially my artist buds that are still on the platform.

One of the jarring parts of growing up is realizing many of the things you “just knew” about the world was made up. Some people respond to this revelation by learning to question things carefully. Many just take their distrust, double down, and become lazy contrarians with a grudge against reality.

There’s something really touching about how someone from over 120 years ago took the time to take a photo of their cat and go “look at my cat” and 120 years later people are still going “hell yeah that is a great cat”

Hey all, I'm partially re-opening commissions. I have portraits, emojis, and PWYW sketch commissions available on my ko-fi. ko-fi.com/miscellennyo...

If you wait until you're ready to start, you never will.

I can't really want to put into words how dire things are for me as I'm typing this, so any help really would be appreciated

Cancel your Netflix.

Hey friends! I'm again struggling and looking to fill some emergency comm slots. I also have a shop with tons of goodies, with freebies sent with every order! Your support and help in these times would be most appreciated. Shares even more so! www.etsy.com/shop/Meggles...

last thing for the day before I log OFF but i keep thinking about the (bad) argument that genAI is good for disabled people, but ime true accommodations for disability are external. I don't need a tool to make me go faster; I need a society that gives me space to go slower.

I don't know how 'normal' people feel about this, but if a book has an AI cover, then there's absolutely NO chance in hell that I'm reading it. "Don't judge a book by its cover-" I will actually. In this case, I absolutely will.
