As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.
Included both flat and fully rendered bc I couldn't decide 😩 (Please don’t comment “I miss them”, “Fuck Mappa”, etc). From 2024 #eli's-art #art #procreate #illustration #fanart #yuri!!!-on-ice #yuri-on-ice #yoi #viktor-nikiforov #victor-nikiforov #yuuri-katsuki #viktuuri #victuuri

Finally heard back from the vet and his testing will cost about $700! If you can’t donate, please spread the link (in the following post) around and share this post.
I’m so angry this happened to Tim. He also talks about how happy he is to have his very first boyfriend 🥹
Jon Holmes@jonhholmes.bsky.social · 3mo agoNearly 700,000 #LGBTQ adults in the U.S. have received conversion therapy at some point in their lives. Olympic medalist Tim Koleto was one of them. In a new interview for @outsports.com, the retired figure skater tells me how the memory of that experience convinced him to come out publicly.
There's rumours we might be seeing a trailer for the sequel to "THAT" wizard game this week. To all of you who bought the last one, and said "I don't support her transphobia, but the story means so much to me", you've got a second chance to take a stand and not give her money this time.
*opens social media*: Oh, new official fanart for the anniversary of my favourite anime dropped! 😍 entitled™️ fans at the animation studio that doesn't even own the IP: 🤬💣‼💥☠ *goes back on hiatus*

Briefly returning from my hiatus to announce what I've just heard in the news: Minerva Hase and Nikita Volodin will continue competing as a team until 2030. They decided that they're not done yet. #figureskating #pairskating #miniki
REFORM THE ISU.... this is making me crazyyyy
A lot of long AO3 comments I get are either "I ✨LOVE✨ your fic, but™️... [criticism on an alleged flaw in my reseach]" at chapter 40, or are uplifting and look like this person indeed read the story but are actually scam. What happened to discussing the story and screaming together in the comments?
“Merely disliking this thing/person for personal reasons is inadequate, I must make my dislike a sign of moral superiority and a Righteous Cause” is one of the worst social things the internet has supercharged

i've read so many of the latter... the thing is, when smut writers say a "GOOD" sex scene, I think people assume we mean one where everyone is fulfilled, has great orgasms or sth, but we v much do not. a "good" sex scene is simply a subtype of action scene; it has a narrative and executes it well.
Spencer Koelle@spencerkoelle.bsky.social · 4mo agoPeople who disrespect Romance and smut writers fail to appreciate how hard it is to write a really GOOD sex scene. Bad, depressing "literary" sex scenes are comparatively easy to write.
remix reveals!! i wrote this weird little sci-fi au based on the work of a very dear friend of mine 💫 instead of resurrecting into a new body, wei ying has cybernetic enhancements after his near-death. it takes some adjusting. 💫 wangxian, 5k, rated e 💫 archiveofourown.org/works/83890916
勝つ丼だから... >"Winner, winner, katsu-dinner," as they say... it's either that or write a shameful footnote about ~cutlets~ (hork!) and "kanji characters" (a sliver of my soul sloughs off)
I don't know why this is, but printing a manuscript is like shining a black light on a draft: suddenly you can see all the mess and know exactly what crimes you committed. That shit DOES work.
Taco Bell Quarterly@tacobellquarterly.org · 4mo agoLearning this is a boomer take because some people do write on their phones, but wait until I tell you kids about printing the whole thing out and editing it by hand like you live in the 1800s because that shit works. Grab a candle and a quill if you want to do this right
100% this. AI is a deskilling project. To use it is to embrace your own uselessness.

If you’re queer and reading this, just know I and whoever put this on your timeline are rooting for you. We love and support you and your journey. Things have been difficult lately, but we are so proud of you. You matter. Your existence has touched countless people, even us strangers. Bless you 💖
Unplug Skate Canada, count to 10, and plug it back in
Did a gesture drawing session where I just kept pausing Alysa Liu's figure skating routine and it was really fun. Would recommend. Also first time doing gesture drawing with a brush pen. Also fun! I hope the traditional art practice stuff doesn't interrupt the weird Hazbin art too much lmao
I just learned such a great word for our times. An epiphany is sudden true understanding. An *apophany* is a false understanding based on seeing a relationship in data or perception that doesn't actually exist. Pareidolia (seeing faces in things) is a subtype of apophenia.
