I'll make a proper backstory for this annoying little dog man eventually (probably change up his design too just cus) right now he'll just be a failed experiment / Garmr runt that wasn't culled for some reason anyway updated wip of "A students dream" down below ~ (tw cadavers, benis)

A digital illustration of the fictional character Victor Gideon being yelled at through a phone. He looks bewildered as a little cat-dog thing sleeps on top of a manila folder titled "Elpis: TOP SECRET" 

Yelling voice: "I swear if you're late too this meeting I'm going too-" (text becomes obscured)

Victor thought bubble: "I need that file... but he looks so comfy...~"

Its a lib "bubble" because MAGA can't stick dick opinions in my face without a block. People like bluesky because unlike Twitter you can curate/filter out stupid bullshit. The only reason conservatives hate it is because they cant force you to pay attention to them. That better not fucking change.

Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

I feel a smarter person can flesh this out more, but I feel this is related to how sexualized women's feet have become. So much so that they feel uncomfortable showing them. Reaffirming that it is inherently sexual. Eventually leading to YT deleting channels based on "feet are boobs now."

a bunch of popular ASMR artists lost their channels forever this week, after YouTube cited them for violating terms against "sexually gratifying" content: www.404media.co/youtube-asmr...

Author friends, this is a site you should bookmark! #noai #humanartists It should go without saying, but I don't use AI. I didn't apply because I'm not looking to be hired. But many other artists are actively seeking projects and need your support in this growing hellscape. #supportartists

It's here, it's here! 🌟 V2 of Hire Human Artists is now live. We make it easier than ever to find artists who have pledged not to use generative AI in their workflow. HireHumanArtists.com Use the directory to find artists for your project type, that do a certain style, and more! Now with images!

I don’t “network,” I make friends. Other artists are not my competition, they’re my beloved peers and sources of inspiration. We all have the same goal; to share our art. I’m not gonna corporatize my human relationships with them. I am in my sandbox playing and I hope they join me.

So @why.bsky.team is no longer mass blocking via this list, probably as a kneejerk reaction to realizing he doesn't know how his own (likely vibe-coded) feeds work. He is instead spending his morning manually blocking trans people and furries

A screenshot of @why.bsky.team 's Clearsky.app "Lists Blocking" page.  He is no longer subscribed to the "AI Haters" blocklist, or any other blocklist.A screenshot of @why.bsky.team 's "Blocking" page on Clearsky.app.  He is manually blocking 220 accounts, all of which having been blocked within the past twelve hours.

If you wonder why the "Quiet Posters" feed doesn't work for you anymore, it is because the @why.bsky.team subscribed to an anti-anti-ai block list, rendering it useless for over 300 000 users. Good job bsky team!!

Quiet Posters feed not working

“GlobalComix’s AI translation copilot delivers 85–90% cost savings compared to industry-standard manual translation.” These AI tools will always rely on underpaid freelancers doing three jobs for a fraction of the wage of one. They’re merely a justification for not paying people.

So I was in that Global Comix Discord meeting awhile back where they said, checks notes, we won’t use AI for translating. Well… Sorry to repost a Substack article but here’s the full icky details 👇🏻 leadvc.substack.com/p/1b903618-4...
