Look. I don't remember making this one. And tbh? Not my finest work. So can we all just acknowledge it and move on because with one more preorder Opus passes Woodpusher for all-time preorders

Because it apparently bears repetition:

You do not make fun of people for things like their weight, height, voice, baldness, ancestry, etc.

Even if they are horrible people. That is not a get out of jail free card.

Pick something else. Preferably in the actions or thoughts zone.

Why can I only come up with edgelord answers, like "love feels like the bullets they're all dying to take for each other"?

Okay, real answer: love sounds like the distortion of someone's voice heard through their chest while you sob into it and they lie that it'll be okay #Lovember

What does love taste, smell, or feel like to your character(s)?

Interesting to me how closely the "uses ai" and "doesn't us alt text" circles overlap. So much so that I half-assume any art without alt text is ai at first glance

this.

also, if you care about disability justice, hope you’re also pro-fat liberation.

do you know how many people have gone to the doctor for troubling symptoms, been automatically dismissed and told to lose weight, and then developed late-stage/severe chronic and acute illnesses?
It also fucking sucks that so many people on the Left(s) refuse to understand anti-fatness as a system of oppression, and fat liberation as a legitimate anti-oppression movement.

It sucks, because it's all connected, and if you don't see this part, you don't have a clear understanding of the whole.

PayPal has rolled out a new "feature" that prompts you to leave feedback about an artist that you've commissioned via invoice.

Whatever you do, DO NOT fill this out! To quote Admiral Ackbar, "IT'S A TRAP!!!" It is meant to misguide you.

Your trauma conditioning will try to trick you into being cruel to yourself in the name of "realism." It's real good at disguising unfair, reflexive self-talk as "tough love."

Remind yourself it is not "coddling" to speak to yourself respectfully & kindly in your own head.

I alluded to this yesterday, but Leecie isn't the type to hug and kiss on everyone she meets. She generally likes it with her close friends, though. The classic paradox of touch-starved and touch-averse that so many of us autistics know well
Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

How does your character feel about physical touch?

Are they fans of a handshake, hug, pat on the back, etc?

Do they prefer to keep their distance?

Does it matter how close they are to the other person?

Others have said it before, but if 'AI' was any good, they'd be charging us for it and we'd be happy to pay. Shoehorning it into every single aspect of people's lives just reeks of desperation.

The reason you see AI pushed so hard in products, ads and promoted posts is that they know people don't WANT to use it but they are desperate to recoup on their millions in investments.

They wouldn't be over-saturating your feed with AI tools if people were buying these things on their own.

I appreciate everyone who has been discussing this issue. I haven't been adding much more to the public convo as (1) there isn't much more to add yet, and (2) as I've mentioned, I'm exploring potential legal options. If I learn more I'll add more, but for now... this is the most thorough overview
Paypros censorship 🧵

As you all know, I've faced significant stress this month from having various online accounts dinged in some shape or form. I discussed this on stream earlier this week, but would like to break down the full timeline in post form
