Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.

New banner :)
Banner image in black, white and grey tones of Maushold. It's a family of four. On each side is a small Mausling with wings, holding a long banner that has a star pattern. At the center are the big Maushold with wings, partially wrapped in the banner. The background is black with grey accents and white stars.

If AI could make the Lord of the Rings, I still would not care, not because it's "soulless" but because it cost people their job.

Labor rights trumps philosophy. Every day.

I don't care if you think it's not that bad because an artist went over it in the end.

Artists will keep being replaced and people will keep pretending to be outraged and then something will be released that makes them sad but In A Meaningful Way and they'll go "oh but it was only for" and it'll turn out it was only for a job that was previously done by a person.

Sorry I think using AI for placeholders is also bad
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I know you only care about finished art but placeholder art also needs to be made by a human being who also needs to be paid for that

But placeholder midjourney slop cuts that artist out

Every writer who generates a slop image for their work is a class traitor.

"I can't afford a visual artist"

So your solution is stabbing artists in the back? Stealing from them?

Furthermore, slop-generated imagery suggests slop-generated writing. That's how you're presenting yourself.

Promo image of a digital notepad page in DIN A6 format. The design is a pokemon fanart of Maushold in pastel-like tones and greenish hues. Maushold are gathering different gorceries and put them in a basket that is filled with tomatoes, fruits and a jar of milk. On the right, a big Maushold is holding a piece of cheese, holding it up to a small Maushold that is sitting in the basket. On the left another big Maushold is holding a long bread, and the second small Maushold is dragging a bag of candy that has ripped open, spilling some of the candies. Top left is a purple bar with white letters that says "full size".

Gathering the goods 🧀🥖🥬🍅
Digital sketch for a grocery list. Maushold are gathering different gorceries and put them in a basket that is placed at the center. On the right one Maushold is holding a piece of cheese. On the left another Maushold is holding a long bread, and another is dragging a bag of candy. Top right corner a Maushold is rolling a can of beans. The background is grey for now so looking at a screen is easier on my eyes.

Tip: Request 3 pictures from 3 different angles and all of them have to have a visible paper with specific text on it. If any of the damage changes even a LITTLE refuse the refund.

Just arrived in the mail! I've never built a diorama before but these adorable guys from @potoh.bsky.social really make me wanna make a single wall diorama just to put these up in a "gallery" 😂
A set of six stickers from potoh. They're all famous art pieces but instead of people or still life, they're cats.

Got a very important delivery yesterday ✨
Photo of two coin pouches made from minky fabric. The white pouch is of a cat head with 4 wings in a dark yellow, similiar to gold. Each wing has 5 eyes embroidered on it. The face of the cat has closed eyes and a bigger eye on the forehead that is open. The black pouch has the shape of the head of my wizard OC cat Tuffy. He is a black cat with big round eyes with black pupils and looks a bit cross-eyed. He wears a blue wizard hat with a star in its center and a yellow half moon at the tip. Close-up of the Tuffy pouch. Close-up of the white angel cat pouch. Photo of both pouches with zippers open, showing the inside. The Tuffy pouch has blue fabric lining, the angel cat has black fabric lining.
