Hi! I'm Aethyne. I live in a shack in the mosquito infested woods, and I draw stuff (mainly men) and yell at things. Not necessarily in that order.

This is incredibly painful for me. I have never asked for help like this before. But I have had people reach out to me asking if they can help, so I am sharing my story and finally asking for help.
I've been lucky to have a lovely group of followers here, please share if you can, anything helps <3

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.
Just fuck you. Fuck you all.
I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

to me
Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

Ah yes, combating the holiday depression. As one does.
Made worse by my stomach acting up AGAIN. I swear. The best gift of the season would be a body that mcfuckin' works properly. 😖

"people can still download your art from bsky and feed it into AI" if gamer behavior has taught me anything, just one extra button press is more than enough to annoy a MASSIVE amount of people into not making the effort

This is a double whammy story... Multiple entirely fake entries on this list published in multiple papers.
But the list itself is taken whole from a press release.
So it's a warning story about AI slop, but also a warning about unquestioning reproduction of press releases.

#4 sounds like a lovely book but I didn't write it. Have had whānau up and down the country send me clippings lol
Whoever put together this list that has been circulated to regional papers, didn't fact check.

LRP Okay, but like... even on Tumblr, getting anyone to interact at all w/ OC stuff is like pulling teeth, I stg.
It's rough. It takes a lot of stubborn willpower to stick out posting OC stuff, b/c ppl just don't seem to give a fuck unless it's blorbo from x property.

It's kinda heartbreaking to see so many artists being like "can I post about OCs and not just fanart?", "can I talk about other stuff?", "can I post often?" because the other hellsite literally punished you for doing...normal things you do as an artist - as a person, even.

Most people just don't understand how complicated even the most basic shit in a game is. This isn't going to fix that. Simply it. Anything.
Machine learning is one thing, but nobody's talking about that in these articles and that's so painfully evident. Generative stuff just... fuck.
