Got reached out and I'm going to cry. You have no idea how much this means to hear. Him and Jim Davis are the reasons why I'm a cartoonist today. My heart is so full.

🚨 The archived version of the suppressed Amnesty report into the anti-trans network operating to dismantle human rights in the UK has been "excluded" from the Wayback Machine. JKR is working very hard to scrub its existence from the eyes of the public. Thankfully, I kept screenshots.
That’s always how it is with AI. Either it’s just there and mandatory, or something you have to turn off. They have to force it on us because they know it’s increasingly unpopular yet they’re desperate to keep that bubble inflated.
Twitch isn't making Gen AI training *opt-in* because no one would voluntarily choose to opt in. Instead, they are offering an opt-out option.
Thinking, as I often do, about this tumblr post
watching cis people repeatedly fail to find a way to counter the conservatives' emphasis on sex and thus watch them hopelessly struggle as conservatives bring back extremely invasive "sex testing" and defund or destroy women's organizations and social spaces is so. wow lol
Twitch's "Allow your channel content to train generative AI models" setting is here and on by default. Go turn that shit off, streamer!! The toggle is under your Settings, then 'Security and Privacy'
Every Bluesky interaction about money summarized “I had a cappuccino today.” “Most people in America can’t afford running water!!! What about them, plutocrat?” Will Stancil comes by. “Actually the average US household has a net worth of over a million dollars.”
If artists learn anything from the darkness that is genAI i hope it’s that it’s very easy to credit those that inspire you and not strip away information from what inspires you and celebrate it. Your better then a prompter after all.
Mood swings Commission for @wcpsycho.bsky.social A very intricate design that was super fun to render. Thank you for commissioning!
The results of the video I posted earlier was this iconic shot 👏 Danny León and his crew smashed it.

We've gone ahead and hidden the Game Jolt and itchio download links for DELTATRAVELER Classic, as we've recently seen an uptick in people calling DELTATRAVELER gameplay "DELTARUNE INTERDREAM". If you want to play the original game, that can still be found on our website in "Other Downloads".

Not just an evil decision, but a baffling one too - the only people who will even notice this are people who will be pissed off by it, and it does nothing to stop people from talking about trans rights on the platform
oh twitch you sure are making a CHOICE today this on top of everything else? disgusting.
Friendly reminder to aspiring artists to develop your OWN style. Studying anatomy, detailing, "how to do it" is fine in doses. But the art styles that became iconic from yesteryear look nothing like anything else. Parappa the rapper, Garfield, anything from Matt Groening, powerpuff girls etc
Got blocked by an editor at the economist because I got him to admit that he doesn’t think that the UK should accept asylum seekers from anywhere else but the European continent because of racial reasons and I think that’s both very funny and also explains a lot about the economist.
Yeah honestly if you considered doing this, it’s scab behavior. If we ALL aren’t against it, shit like this will continue to happen. We need to slam this door closed.
Netflix is facing backlash after seeking storyboard artists who use generative AI tools for upcoming animated projects.
The TOS being so strict that they control you offsite is the problem; sites like Patreon and Kofi have offsite clauses too. The social criminalization of the suggestion that somewhere you might be doing nsfw is a problem. It's branding a person as obscene and we need consumers to stand up for us
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...
LinkedIn added an "AI slop" button. The U-Turn is happening, expect to see a lot more of this from other tech companies.
I and many of my friends stream on Twitch. I say, *absolutely the fuck not*. Friends who stream on Twitch, there is a comment thread here where you can make your voices heard: twitch.uservoice.com/forums/92338... This is the *least* they can do.

Twitch and Amazon are apparently planning to use streams to train Generative AI. Multiple sources tell me it will be announced in the coming months, despite some internal friction against it. Creators may be able to opt out of some training data.
It's really cool that I detox from social media for around 2 years at this point just because harrasment and wanting to focus on my project. I've been having more time to do stuff instead of loosing myself in scrolling for hours
It's kinda sad in a way cuz I follow a lot of artists and people I like. It's fun interacting, looking at stuff or getting inspiration, but the amount of time it eats sucks. It also was fun when it wasn't that serious.
