Just a reminder, I have moved (mostly) away from here. I still check in on occasion, but you can find me on In*ta, t*mblr and Bl*eSky under the same username!
(also, I have an invite to the blue place for any mutual that needs a ticket out of here)

My furball Neva needs urgent specialist medical care and I’d appreciate if you can help in any small way. I’m not one to ask for help, but I’ll never forgive myself if I give up now for pride or lack of funds. Thank you. 🐾 #CatsOfTwitter 🐾 @gofundme

Been struggling back into the art headspace. It is pure self-indulgence, but #Gargoyles had a huge impact of my writing & art. Revisiting it has helped me a lot in getting back to the right state. It ain't perfect, but I am actually feeling pretty good about this.

⚠️ DISCORD PSA
Be extremely careful when clicking on links in Discord from now on.
The Markdown Syntax allows you to hide what links are at first glance. The only way you'd be able to tell the difference is by hovering over the link and seeing if both URLs match.

Wealthy/Well established people being okay with Ai Scraping, Once again, DO NOT speak for all of us. YET, Pro Scrapers LOVE to rally around them as if their voice over shadows the literal THOUSANDS of people that have been objecting to Non-Consensual scraping/GenAi Training 1/n

I'll make a deal... I'll call it X when he stops deadnaming his daughter.
Till then, I'll be over on other social media sites. The ones it has been proven he has been throttling links to, cuz nothing says free media like choking off interaction to other views.

Going to reiterate that using a harmful exploitative tech even "just for fun" is normalizing the use of something harmful and exploitative. Which is, still harmful and exploitative even if you aren't profiting from it.

A fun thing about generative AI discourse is when ai advocates claim aggrieved artists don’t know how the tech works. But when you ask ai advocates how it works, some anthropomorphized nonsense like “It LEaRnS aNd Is InSpIrEd JuSt LiKe YoU” always creeps up. It’s embarrassing.

The biggest fallacy of GenML proponents is that they don't understand that creatives LIKE BEING CREATIVE.
"You'll write your books much faster!" "You don't have to struggle drawing this!"
THE WHOLE POINT IS TO WRITE! TO DRAW! That's the fun part!
The result is just a bonus!!!

Can I just say that at a minimum, we shouldn't have maijin in our space because he's shown himself to be a danger to women in general? Like, we have multiple women sharing the same red flags.

I'm tired of comments claiming artist are priviledged & have a luxury of time, freedom & money to learn, practice & be creative. Majority of artists create & improved by sacrificing leisure time & sleep while working non art jobs. They have diligence, self-discipline & passion.
