So I really need to get my butt moving and post some art on my own instead of just waiting to reply to others. Lol!
I'll start off with the minis I've finished so far for the Marvel United board game. I've got just shy of 200 of them, so I still have a way to go yet.

this film is going to be like 90% CGI... so don't forget that these "live action" adaptations are still animated movies, they're really just there to exploit non-unionized VFX animator labour, because 3d character animators are unionized and can't be taken advantage of so easily
welp, "live action" how to train your dragon made a lot of money, I'm sure this one will too, it's basically the same thing just more textures and occasionally people up close are visibly real actors

this is not "haptic" :P

Now more than ever you have to call and you have to be loud and annoying about paypro censorship
#savespeech #DONTFUCKWITHUS #stoppayprocensorship

This is their end game, between game deplatforming, paypro restrictions/censorship, age verification, and digital ID: blacklist and debank the dissenter.

We must not yield. We must grow louder. We must push EVERYONE to fight. Every person.

Ana's situation has gotten more severe. This is blatantly targetted debanking and [extremely unfortunate] proof that these call campaigns are getting under paypros skin

Keep calling Visa and MC and demanding they stop discriminating against adult content!

The full count as of today:

YouTube suspended
Twitch banned 3x
Patreon suspended (temporary)
Patreon 3x audio flags (one false posi)
Ko-fi suspended (indefinite?)
Buy Me a Coffee suspended
Vice reporting censored
Pornhub censored 3x times
Fansly censored 1x
Is it really a conspiracy to say Ana is being explicitly flagged by finance bros when she's now been banned (or censored) from Twitch, Patreon, Buy Me A Coffee, Ko-Fi, and *PornHub*??
My new Buy Me a Coffee account was suspended before my first payout was received, the site stating it is “required to deactivate accounts that contain or use adult content to generate revenue through Buy Me a Coffee”

Adult content was never referenced on my page nor used as a motivator to tip

There's been a lot of very sophisticated, compelling social commentary on declines in cultural literacy in recent years, but honestly it is very reasonable to just boil it down to "people no longer understand that things mean stuff"

I’m gonna disagree with this one.

What we’re calling “AI” doesn’t replace cognition. It replaces pattern matching, but on its own has no idea which patterns are important or why.

We are nowhere close to an actual thinking machine.
The plow, the steam engine, electricity — all replaced muscle. AI replaces cognition. If you spend your day “reading lots of stuff and turning it into straight English,” well… so does the machine. The goal now is to learn from history and cushion the blow better than last time.

Every time I hear a politician say that an issue is “dividing” this country they always then come down on the side of the right wing view of it. Just once I’d love to hear someone say “this issue is divisive, which is why I’m making the argument that kindness and compassion is important”

Last year, someone I considered a very close friend was arrested for CSEM possession. I didn't rationalize it or seek excuses. I immediately condemned him and severed all ties to him forever.

I could do that to a former close friend, but the MAGAs can't do it for a fucking politician.

And if more journalists + streamers + YouTubers keep ignoring this issue, what they are doing is throwing you — trans, gay, artist, smut customer — to the dogs
A lot of people really aren’t getting it. In less than a year we’ve seen it leap from the *most* objectionable content that I’m not even really comfortable talking about here to far more innocuous stuff, they’re not going to arbitrarily decide to stop here

I'm usually not 1 to fearmonger but this should scare LITERALLY everybody. Institutions used ai to target and debank a person BY NAME over PERFECTLY LEGAL CONTENT.

EVERYONE needs to join the fight, b/c it does not matter if your content is SFW, IF THEY DO NOT LIKE IT OR YOU, THEY WILL DEBANK YOU.
Friend tried to donate to my Throne, flagged by fraud detection at Bank of America — bank identified the transaction as specially for “giantess voretuber Ana Valens”

I suspect I faced those Patreon / Ko-fi dings b/c financial institutions have me, specifically, on record as a high risk recipient!

Okay i know i've been yapping about this and games stuff alot lately but seriously again this is why i keep saying DON'T make exceptions to "Fuck ai".

Don't give any leniency to any of these companies, hell not even to the smallest ones.
No exceptions, no excuses, fuck ai and anyone that uses it.

In other words, because my art can be considered anime, and I draw D&D characters, my financial information could get flagged by MasterCard's AI and I'll lose everything. PayPal, Ko-fi, my bank account- everything.

It's not about porn.
MasterCard is marketing its new MasterCard Threat Intelligence platform to issuers & acquirers. A source familiar w/ MasterCard’s internal operations told me MTI is flagging anime, VTubing, adult content, tabletop, video games as potentially “high fraud risk”

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
