I wish I could convey why I'm so frustrated about the RPhub thing (re: character of color with curves being seen as inherently sexual) without repeating what has already been said but it's like. It's deeply infuriating because it's so obvious what is happening because of who it is, and then

Sometimes I just gotta get a shitpost out of my system. This time featuring Shiny Pokemon shenaniganry. I love Froslass she should be able to make her horns pointier at will -

a slightly messy, colored sketch of a large Shiny Froslass holding a small Shiny Ralts. It's a redraw of a meme, and the second drawing of the Froslass has her look very intimidating.

Froslass: I've had Tiamat for fifteen minutes, and if ANYTHING happens to her ...

Froslass: THE HOTEL GROUNDS WILL START GAINING *STATUES*

Her trainer is not amused and sternly uses her name (Ajisai) to tell her 'Don't do that.'

Tiamat the ralts is initially delighted by the affection, but the threat of people getting murdered for hurting her seems to alarm her ...

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

Viewing art with skepticism because of AI is like having to wonder if something is poisoned before you eat any food ever. Which is why it is kind of imperative to treat those who use generative AI as though they are trying to poison you.

fun fact: one of the things that made me decide "no, I will get an actual diagnosis", rather than just assuming, was the subtitle of a thread about ADHD on the SomethingAwful forums because it hit so hard it hurt it was along the lines of "if you were lazy, you would be having fun"

i am so beyond thrilled to launch my new webcomic: PRAYERS TO THE FUTURE! it's a muslim-themed post-apocalyptic adventure about coming together to breathe life into a struggling world. the first update is now live at prayerstothefuture.com - the comic is free to read + updates every monday. ENJOY 🧿

an illustration for the launch of my (iasmin omar ata) new webcomic PRAYERS TO THE FUTURE. the main character, irfan, poses with an obsidian sword. the rest of the comics cast (a mystery for now!) is depicted in various shapes behind her. the title of the comic is written outside of a circle behind irfan, with "by iasmin omar ata" written on the underside of the circle. within the circle, a post-apocalyptic desert is shown, with a tall obisidan obelisk at the center and a giant crystal floating atop it.

I understand the skepticism behind this, but doing a little sleuthing on the mod's Nexusmods page, it seems the creator is not a fan of AI voices. Maybe, until proven otherwise, we shouldn't jump the gun?

One thing is you don't need to do like a whole monologue about why harrassment is bad. You can just say "really?" in a disappointed voice or "come on, man."

last repost is that people generally need to completely undo what they think "the whole goal of the socialization of boys into men" is, etc

it's a different & delayed context, but the whole process of "socializing" boys into men is the process of killing any potential trans girls. that's what all the rejection of "girly stuff" & "effeminacy" and creating brotherhoods to hunt out transfemininity and kill it early is.

the lack of the presence of cis girls isn't contradictory to the lack of the presence of trans girls. of course a society that has fewer cis girls because it tries to prevent them before they exist also builds institutions to prevent trans girls before they exist.

so, rather than hetero-nationalism, every cis girl and trans girl is a survivor of the cessation-of-existence process?

I know there is a hell of a lot going on right now. But not all of it is bad. Some is astonishingly good - like the results of this study from June. Cervical cancer is a terribly cruel thing. This might, at long last, be the beginning of the end of it. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Since we're on the annual yearly cycle of are using 3d models/refs a sin? [No] i wanna remind folk that if the only thing stopping you from using sign language in your comic is intimidation USE THE 3D MODELS. Do your research. Find your refs. Set up the models. Draw. Bam!

OH. right! i get it now!

i get why AI is so depressing to me. because covid already shrunk my world to almost nothing, where almost all of my life revolves around socializing and watching videos on the internet (which is being ruined by AI) and creating creative works through coding (which is being ruined by AI), often using open source tools and libraries (which are being ruined by AI)

i already had so little and now even that is being rotted away before my eyes

reject generative ai in EVERY field. in EVERY use. because once you justify using it in one place, you justify using it everywhere. and redefine what you view as art! coding is an art, just as drawing, painting, writing, music making!

This is part of what I'm referring to with many people demanding stories that reassure them they're a good person. They want the moral instruction because otherwise, rather than processing the reading experience, there's a thrum of "am I bad? am I bad? what if someone finds out I'm bad?"

Tumblr post by graftini:

stories about abuse are allowed to exist without reducing themselves to moral instruction. i think sometimes when people complain about the “romanticization” of abuse, what they're actually objecting to isn't necessarily the way abuse is being represented, but the fact that the representation doesn't provide them with constant moral reassurance. like, there is a difference between “this story frames abuse as desirable or inherently romantic” and “this story depicts abuse in an erotic/ambiguous/complicated way and doesn't repeatedly tell me that abuse is bad, therefore the depiction itself is irresponsible.”
