Please also be (more) vocal about not engaging with people/companies who use it. "I was going to try [Restaurant/Product/Store/Game] but saw you were using AI for your [menu/ads/development]." Put it in reviews. Put it on socmed. Email them. Let them know it's affecting their bottom line.

Please be vocal about not using AI. We have to normalize it. No "I'm not going to say that because it should be assumed. I'm not going to give them this". We don't have time for that shit ideological shit right now. NOW is the time to capitalize on waning favorability. Ppl want human made

Finally, finally cleared out the last dregs from Google docs. @ellipsus.com has been an amazing alternative. Their stance against gAI, the constant stream of improvements and how much they've listened to the community wrt their roadmap. For offline backup, I'm looking at LibreOffice 26.8 maybe?

It’s the weekend! Let’s stretch a little with these cats. Cats seem to know better than we do how to truly relax. Stretch your legs, loosen up, and let go of the week’s tiredness. I hope these little cats bring a bit of ease and a good mood to your weekend😊 #shouxinsketch #cat #sketch #sketchdaily

I'd like to regain my confidence as a writer.

It's another fun Mihoyo x AI update This coming September Mihoyo is hosting a special event revolving around "Games x AI"! Guest lineup includes the person who came up with the upcoming Petit Planet game's AI agent. Depressing stuff!

Anyway here's Mihoyo promoting AI assisted game production including: "Efficiency in Image and Material Generation With very few materials, they can generate character model sheets + 3D models, allowing for the testing of multiple designs and their artistic outcomes." Something to keep an eye on.

Also, lets not forget he also lent his voice to the hardest promo in American history

“Be Strong enough to be gentle.” Peter Cullen tells the story of how his brother inspired the voice he would use to play Optimus Prime. It’s a simple yet poignant quote that sums up why Optimus and Peter are so beloved. Til All Are One. 💔

Saw someone at the farmers market who was simultaneously Very Gender and None Gender and uh yes thanks please thanks. So anyway, I have an appointment to talk to my doctor about T and DHT blockers.

Everyone point at my abdomen and say no. Something on the right side hurts and I have too much going on for it to get dramatic.

rest in peace, tim curry. sail for adventure on the big blue wet thing

digital painting study from like ~15 seconds of the RHPC movie i did last year RIP Tim Curry what a guy

Reminded once again that Tim Curry did the audio books for Sabriel, Lirael, and Abhorsen.

We’re going to hear about how everyone loved Dolly, and that feels true. But it’s good to remember, and to her credit, that she was attacked for her AIDS activism, her vaccine advocacy, her LGBTQ+ support and even, more recently, for her reading initiatives. She ALWAYS stood firm when it mattered.

I really cannot think of a greater honor than to have the Muppets say this about you upon your passing

it is absolutely true that the dynamics of fandom have drastically changed in the last 10 years as it has become more mainstream but occasionally people will suggest that fandom wasn’t also crazy before and that’s a revisionism i cannot stand for. i was there, gandalf…i was there 3000 discourses ago

GOOD NEWS! A new cancer treatment has demonstrated unprecedented results in a large trial for cancer patients whose disease has become resistant to chemotherapy AND immunotherapy. Tumors shrank in OVER a third of participants, with 15 patients experiencing COMPLETE eradication of their tumors.

Moon! (hoping it's orange because it's lowish, but I think it might be fires.)

the charm that will be included in the haurche plushie preorders has arrived today 🤭

Les Nuz(locke) I dreamed a dream in gens gone by When health was high and life worth living I dreamed my ‘mon would never die I dreamed RNG would be forgiving Then I was young and so naive And mon were caught and fought and wasted There was no chance to use revive No death undone, no loss untasted

Clearing out old docs and I feel like this is somehow stream related but Past Grey... what??? WHAT???

One of the funniest whataboutisms for me is "what if your mom had aborted *you*?". So, actually, she would have! My birth mom'd had abortions before me, and went to the hospital unaware she was pregnant. I was a stealth baby. And I will still fight for the mom's choice and autonomy every time.

I'm very tired of anxiety. It triggers my fight or flight (too often fight) and it makes it so hard for me to tend to my friendships, or pursue new ones. I have so many moots I'd love to talk with more, but I get very in my head about being a Bother. Or simply suffered.
