it really is shocking how much self deprecation is seen as a cultural requirement for 'serious art.' 'real' artists are not allowed to exalt their work and must present it publicly as a sort of 'i dont think this is very good but maybe you will get around to it.' HECK THAT. love yourself

Ozempic is a lifesaving drug for diabetics type 2 (and potentially helpful for T1 in some instances), and health influencers using it for cosmetic purposes are putting lives at risk. This shit makes me ✨so fucking angry✨ Thanks
@agramuglia.bsky.social
for calling this shit out.
This vid argues that the entire world should just be on Ozempic, and this feels EXTREMELY irresponsible.

This drug can cause some serious body problems if your body does not properly digest nutrients. And just saying everyone should be on it is IMMENSELY irresponsible.

You know the people doing this type of videos and takes aren't health profesionals. This are irresponsable people trying to sell a magical solution to a problem ignoring all the consequences.
Specially this one, because it's based on fatphobia.

For those panicking with discord fucking out (believe me, I was too)- Go to system settings and tap 'Family Centre' it'll ask for your date of birth (you know, normally), and it'll fix what the site's set you to.

AI-Gen is dying, repost to make it die faster :)
Sora 2 apparently cost something like $5 billion to run every year and so far made OpenAI around $1.4 million.

The vid literally goes "There are small side effects but I mean, being fat is clearly bad and the worst thing you can be ever, so it's totally worth it."

And then you look and see side effects include organ failure. I think that's worse than being 30 pounds overweight.

if you're building software without AI, you need to be as loud and obnoxious about it as the people who use it are.

Hey you

You’re doing a great job. Even if you feel like you’ve accomplished nothing recently. Slow progress is still progress. Giving yourself rest is still very important ❤️

These were really good posts explaining Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria I had to pull over

On a personal level, this is one of my hardest things to deal with. Thankfully its not constant, and I've learned outward reactive regulation, but inside its still this, and sometimes the sad slips out >> 1/2

I feel like I always have to thank people for their patience with us. As a studio we don't want to rush things, or rush into projects or just do anything we don't feel confident in, so we take our time. Between making the shows or making choices- I can't thank you all enough for understanding ❤️

This is the type of shit I’m taking about.

So I wanna know what’s more important: going after people who are strange but harmless? Or going after people who prey on individuals and take advantage of them?
The older I get, the more sympathy I have for people who got hated for making weird but ultimately harmless art or acted cringe when put under pressure...

... and less sympathetic to people who were predatory or manipulative online.

That's what made Twitter a living nightmare, even *before* Elon Musk bought the site (and somehow made it worse).

Having a silly, yet innocuous, take on a movie or showing some vulnerability could make you a target for a mob of petty dickheads rationalizing such cruelty as being "deserved."

This is one of the main reasons I don't take callouts seriously at first nowadays and tend to make my own judgements.
When you take a moment and step back, the majority of online drama are actually nothing burgers. Yes, there are times when behaviors can be off by those called out, but the standard of what geting public scrutiny on social media is much lower than what should be considered acceptable.

My general rule of thumb for most internet drama these days is "is this person doing direct harm? cause if not, i really have more important things to spend my limited mental stamina on"

Most drama I see on social media, are such nothingburgers that would better be resolved by just quietly blocking

Artists, if you ever feel down about the GenAI shit; just remember you’re activity using your brain when drawing unlike AI bros

When creating things yourself, you’re actively working your brain to boost up memory & processing new info; AI bros doesn’t obtain any info when relying only on AI

ever noticed how many cartoons usually portray anime styles as the same "pseudo-shonen" Pokemon-Yugioh-Sailor Moon esque hybrid styles? Still happens recently, and I made a Ren and Stimpy drawing parodying that. All in good fun.
