I do not want GenAI in fanart. I do not want GenAI in character design. I do not want GenAI in world design. I do not want GenAI in writing. I do not want GenAI in storyboarding. I do not want GenAI in voice acting. I do not want GenAI, period. If any piece of media uses GenAI, I don't want it.

Knights of Guinevere episode 2 is out at last! Hope you're all enjoying 'Wolves Around The Corner'. I'll post some of my environments soon; in the meantime, I couldn't resist drawing the princess to celebrate. 🔵💙🔵

Black and white drawing- Princess Guinevere walks in the woods away from a tower. She looks a little lost! On either side of her path, wolves watch her progress with interest.

a great dissection of why a lot of fandom drama doesn't only boil down to "these people are thinking too much about [insert series here] and need to touch grass." there's another layer to the way folks get obsessed (for parasocial/self-important rewriting/clout reasons, etc) that gets glossed over

by asneakyfox on tumblr:

one big thing i think people outside fandom (like, all fandoms, fandom in general, not any particular one) tend to misunderstand is they know it's a subculture of people who are weirdly deeply invested in fictional media, and they hear about drama caused by people in those subcultures being unhinged in not-fun ways, and they think the unhingedness comes from the fact of being overinvested in works of fiction.

which is a natural assumption, but in my experience that's not really the case? like in my experience the drama llamas in fandom are usually not the ones who are just genuinely very deeply into the fiction. i've known people who are basically thinking about star trek or x-men comics or supernatural pretty much 100% of their free time and ime that type of person is usually very nice and surprisingly functional in their regular life. when someone's a constant nexus of fandom drama it's usually not that they are obsessed with the actual work of fiction the fandom is about, it's at least one of the following:

what they're obsessed with is not the source material but their unhealthy parasocial relationships with one or more of the people who created it

what they're obsessed with is not the source material but some elaborate shared-universe subset of fanfic about it that's only barely related to the original at this point, and/or an esoteric reading-against-the-text reinterpretation of the source material (often if the canon is active and ongoing this leads to becoming actively hostile toward it for its inevitably increasing failure to conform to their preferred fanon)

what they're obsessed with is not the source material but the fandom itself and gathering clout within it, so that the source material basically only exists to them as a tool for scoring points in increasingly arcane fandom disputes

and very often you get the same person doing 2 and sometimes even all 3 of these, and that's where the trouble really starts.

Little perspective trick to have characters standing at different depths in the scene; if you think of the character like a geometric object like any other, they scale towards the horizon like any object. A quick way to eyeball this is they’ll intersect the horizon at the same place at any scale

This + conflating "I don't like this" with "this is bad writing/storytelling/game design" drive me nuts. That doesn't mean never criticize anything, but being skilled at media critique means understanding subjectivity and being able to separate personal tastes from what an art piece is going for!

It's not 1536, but Anne Boleyn has taken over the news. Recently a team of computer scientists, electrical engineers and a historical novelist think they have discovered the “true face” of Anne (& her mother) by applying AI-based computational facial recognition to Holbein sketches. The catch? /1

I think one of the most important skills a person can learn nowadays is recognizing when they are making up a person in their head to get mad at and how they can step back from that and ground themselves. No shade. It's an extremely easy behavior to fall into and it will erode you.

happy international asexuality day let's destroy compulsory sexuality

a tumblr post by user saltypuffins. it reads:

"i know so many aces who make the best erotic art!!!!!! 😊"

good for them! i'm glad they can express themselves with that kind of art. but do you also support aces who are repulsed by sex? do you support aces who skip past sex scenes because it squicks them out? do you support aces who will express that they dislike certain types of content that you enjoy? do you call repulsed aces "puritans" for simply having a preference?

or do you only support aces who do things that you value? 🤔

and if you are ace yourself.... do you only support aces who are like you? or do you support the entire spectrum?

you need to support aces who don't make erotica. you need to support aces who will never pass out water bottles at the orgy. you need to support aces who will never contribute to anything sex related ever. no ifs ands or buts. even other aces need to understand this. please consider how you are only giving in to compulsory sexuality.
you need to support aces who will never do anything you value. you need to support aces who dislike things you value. no exceptions.

Did you know that 100% of your "concerns", fears and shitty takes about trans people can really easily be resolved by a) listening to trans people talk about their actual experiences and b) chilling the fuck out a bit about what other people do with their own bodies?
