I like small critters (ori-brand spirits, slugcats, pokemon). I also draw sometimes. Not very good yet

This is Chillager's archive of pre-bluesky drawings. Everything I made before moving over here should be in the comments of this post, arranged by month.

Oh yeah btw the reason why Vine is being relaunched with great fanfare and no Al is because it's jointly operated with an Al company and they probably don;t want to pollute their scrap pile with stuff they've already shat out.

they are relying on cis people to look the other way while this happens. they are relying on you thinking "Well, it could never happen to me." they are relying on the idea that people will not care or help and YOU - non-trans people - MUST prove them wrong. anything less leads to extermination.

There's already a draft policy to create a category of "transgender domestic terrorism" within the Trump administration. They could potentially classify all trans people as domestic extremists and terrorists just as Russia did.
"Text excerpt quoting Sebastian Gorka, deputy assistant to President Donald Trump and senior director for counterterrorism, stating that a new draft U.S. Counterterrorism plan addresses questions about a transgender domestic terrorism classification. The passage notes that the plan, referred to as Trump 2.0’s domestic counterterrorism plan, is being reviewed by cabinet members and principals, including Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, intelligence officials Tulsi Gabbard, John Radcliffe, Kash Patel, and Trump adviser Stephen Miller."

Very interesting algorithm analysis, which explains the repeated problems with content moderation getting in the way of social justice

tldr: it's always good to block a TERF or a white supremacist or any other type of fascist

original post: www.tumblr.com/chiptrillino...
Screenshot of the Advocate article headline showing an image of bluesky's logo and JKR, with the title "Outcry grows after multiple trans uers were targeted for mild criticisms of the anti-trans billionaire" Screenshot of tumblr text post by fourohfourlifenotfound August 24 part 1/3: "If we are ever going to stop this, then you guys need to start learning why this happens. And it's not always because some executive made a decision to favor a TERF. It's because the technology is broken in a way TERFs have learned to use to their advantage. So content moderation is a HUGE task. It is incredibly inefficient to manually monitor all user reports-- when you "flag" something as spam or inappropriate or 'inciting harm' (what Blueskye is saying the banned users had in their posts). So what actually happens is that the bulk of it is reviewed by machine. The precise "how" is a bit of a black box (if you say exactly, it makes it more vulnerable to being bypasses), but we generally know it's a bit of machine learning ("ai", but not he chatgpt kind) and a bit of automation. Generically this gets referred to as an "algorithm" (which is a meaningless word I don't have time to unpack here). The TERFs have a formula. A battle plan, if you will. I've been watching them use it for almost a decade. And they play social media sites like a fiddle every single time." Text post part 2/3: "The way it works is that they coordinate attacks on targets they dislike. (Usually trans people, but ace discourse is a notable example of targets not necessarily fitting that demographic.) They send links to each other of posts to report. They'll flag it for whatever the nearest thing they can is. The blueskye users were wishing ill to JK Rowling, so "inciting harm" was the excuse selected. "Inappropriate or sexually explicit content" is a common selection for other trans content. Then what happens is the content moderation "algorithm" sees a huge influx of reports for a certain post or user. And instead of making a human manually review all of that, it automatically initiates a ban or takedown. And if the "algorithm" has word censorship built in, it will begin to auto-flag for things containing words in posts frequently flagged, so it begins to auto-flag the word trans itself. This has been happening for almost a decade. There was a trans youtuber who proved TERF hater group chats flagged his videos so much that it started auto-demonitizing identical videos with the word trans in the title, but leaving ones without the word alone. I strongly suspect this is why we see huge amounts of trans women banned for no reason on tumblr. And this is clearly what is happening now." Text post part 3/3: "How do we fix it? There's no easy solution. All the things about the "algorithm" that make moderation easier for the social media platforms are the exact reasons it's so difficult to defeat. It's hard to teach a machine what's a genuine flag and a malicious one. Again, it's been almost a decade since the issue was raised with youtube, and there has yet to be a solution for rooting out malicious coordinated flagging. But here's one thing that can help: get TERFs off of social media. Stop letting them bait you into petty fights. Learn how to identify them. Block and report them. " Response by drtanner: "Blocking TERFs and other assorted bigots is especially effective on bsky, because the block function there is nuclear. In short, if you block someone, not only can they not view your account or any of your posts, but any replies they made on your posts will no longer be viewable by others, even if they haven't personally blocked that user themselves. If they quote you, you can even decouple your post from their quote. In short, blocking someone on bsky produces mutual hiding of content, and it's extremely effective at starving these cunts of oxygen. Bigots who can't convince people to fight with them and whose posts don't gain any traction because they're blocked by everyone and their dog leave the platform, i.e. Jesse Singal. It works, people just need to remember to do it more. Preemptive blocking of dickheads before they start shit with you is the best way to prevent things like this from happening. "

Type Chart Silliness, featuring Umbreon and Espeon

I've had this idea for maybe eleven months now, and what better time to finally draw it than Espeon & Umbreon Day?

#pokemon #pokemonart #pokemonfanart #pkmnart #espeon #umbreon #eeveelution #eeveelutions #エフィブラの日
Traditional art of Pokémon - three-panel comic, depicting strengths and weaknesses of Pokémon types. First panel: Umbreon protecting a scared Espeon from a Banette, taking an agressive stance and saying "Back off." References Ghost being super effective against Psychic, and Dark being super effective against Ghost. Second panel: Espeon protecting a scared Umbreon from a Poliwrath, with eyes glowing blue as if about to use psychic powers, and saying "Leave him alone." References Fighting being super effective against Dark, and Psychic being super effective against Fighting. Third panel: Umbreon and Espeon embracing and screaming in fear over a tiny Caterpie, who looks up at them in confusion. References Bug being super effective against both Dark and Psychic.

Want to draw. Nothing is sticking. Doing stuff for others changes my approach. Guess it's time for a giveaway.

Send an oc or idea, and I might draw them. probably as a way to practice fundamentals.

Keep it sfw. Also tell me your favorite color, i'd rather not draw for bots.
"Send OCs Send ideas Might draw them Follow rules tho" In the corner is a sketch of an ori-verse spirit dropping its face into a desk.

before i get back into this drawing thing i wanted to put a thought out there

i've really only seen protogens drawn as critters in techwear. i kinda wonder if anyone has explored them being full-body augments like ruina's brotherhood of iron or warframe's solaris
fake head featuring gun in the "mouth?" idk

How do you design characters like seriously

Minecraft. I color pick stuff from minecraft of all places. Which is great for getting natural tones down but it has been sabotaging my color theory mojo for all of history
