Step by step to a better world. 🌍

lol if someone did see you irl would you be okay with them talking to you? like “hey tommy girl”

Yeah probably! Some days I just wish being an internet slut wasn’t so taboo that I could just show my face and be myself on here

Before you judge ...

Dear all , whoever you are we all are brothers and sisters and as your sister i need you to listen to me.

We all follow different religions or beliefs ,this unique situation should teach us to respect each other and appreciate each beliefs

So... if it happened to be at a party or whatever and there are loud music from all geners, and someone asked for 10 mins break to perfom their religious practices that they have to do at this time , kindly cooperate with them and ensure their needs but please :

Don’t get offended they aren’t practicing oppression on you

They already been kind and accepted your invitation wether it approves with their beliefs or not

They wouldn’t ask for that if the loud voices interrupt their concentration at performing the practices

UPDATE!!

So I recently found out more infomation in regards to this. Check out this Twitter post:

From what I've read and talking with some friends about the matter is this:

Artists, we're more than likely screwed either way when it comes to the bullshit AI is. It's just another aspect that has become integrated into the Internet.

Migrating and blindly posting onto Bluesky and other common sites other artists may use would put us at risk.

Surprisingly, as much as Twitter/Xitter is a toxic cesspool it is, it is weirdly the safer option than other sites, simply because it is harder to scrap stuff for AI. With Twitter, you only have to deal with Grok. With other sites, who knows what you have to deal with.

It is annoying. VERY annoying. And frustrating. Because as artists, we work hard to hone our craft and skills and for AI to just swoop in and steal it and claim it as their's is pretty much a slap in the face, but... As it's been said many times "Welcome To The Internet".

The best we can do is try to stay safe, try to be our authentic selves and continue to put our blood, sweat and tears into our work. AI can copy us, but they could never, and never will be us. Our work has soul, our work shows our perfection and flaws, our work speaks for itself. Essentially, just keep fucking drawing.

Stay strong, everyone. We gotta do our best and stay DETERMINED and PERSEVERE!!

And to those AI "artists"...

Some other things I found out:

I've seen people talk about things, such as "Glaze" and "Nightshade" as a means of making it harder for AI to try and take things from people's art. I've considered it because it would be a good "fuck you" to AI, but after chatting with some friends about this matter to better understand these programs and if it's legit, I've learned that while it may be good workaround to screw with AI, it'll most likely be a fruitless endeavor because it'll only be a matter of time to until AI finds a workaround on *that*.

If we truly wanted to make our voices heard, take action through legal representation, speak to local leaders—make it to where if people want to use AI, they follow proper rules and protocols that are deemed acceptable.

If you can't or don't feel like doing that, just focus on your art, grow your audience, make that money if you're trying to make a career outta it. Just know that your art is REAL art. Not AI.

Artists UNITE!!

So... With all these changes going on, I got a few things to say.

The new "Block" feature. I put quotes on that because with the new changes made, it is essentially useless. As it says, any accounts blocked will still be able to view your content, but won't be able to engage with them, such as leaving a comment or retweeting or anything. BUT if you truly want to protect your posts and limit who can see what, you can lock your account. But that means you won't be able to get more engagement or new followers.

This also means that NSFW artists/content creators who've blocked minors from seeing their content? Yeah, those minors are gonna have full access anyways and there us nothing we can do about it except maybe report them.

Any abusers/stalkers who like to keep tabs on your accounts? They can see, regardless of being blocked.

This has got to be a violation and Google Play and Apple App Store should put X on blast for it.

The second thing!!

If any of you have seen the tweet going around, there has been a recent change to the Terms of Service and will be effective come November 15th.

It'll let Twitter use your posts (images, videos, audio) to train their Grok AI. You can opt out, but come Novwmber 15th, you just automatically get opted back in.

I dunno about y'all, BUT I DO NOT CONSENT TO HAVING MY STUFF USED FOR AI PURPOSES!!

And if you feel the same, I have a suggestion:

I think that we, as artists and content creators, should unite together and nuke our Twitter/X accounts. I know it's a lot, especially those who have really put a lot of work into it, but would you really want to have all that hard work just be fed to an AI?

I say any and all content we have on Twitter should immediately be migrated over to other sites.

Bluesky is always nice and have no complaints so far and since these changes Twitter/X made, they've gain a huuuuuge amount of traffic.

Cora is another place I've been hearing about. I have no opinions about it so far, but did make an account. I've heard they're very anti-AI, so that's good!

Pillowfort could still be a go-to possibly. Hell, maybe even here on Tumblr since it's been getting active again!

We've got options! We can give one last fuck you to Elongated Muskrat to show what we think about his new changes! But that choice is ultimately up to you.

If you guys wanna follow me, my BlueSky account is here, but fair warning, I do post NSFW art on there.

Always forward Not even defeated, feel like a slave, trembling with courage, think brave and attack fiercely already badly wounded. Have the tenacity of the rusty nail, which is already old and mean and still clings, not the cowardly intrepidity of the turkey that lowers its plumage at the first sound. Proceeds like God who never cries or like Lucifer who never prays, or like the oak whose greatness needs water and does not implore it. Let it bite and scream avenger, your head already rolling in the dust.

I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strange, I am ungrateful to these teachers.

— Khalil Gibran

You will be disturbed by this. You have been warned.

The Mosquito's Sting: A Tale of Boundaries Challenged

Once upon a time, in an enchanted kingdom, there was a mosquito that carried West Nile fever. This mosquito bit a wealthy man and a poor one, a Jew and an Arab, a white person and a black person, women and men, heterosexual cisgender and LGBTQ+ individuals. The story tells how people created protective barriers and divisions between themselves, but nature, in the form of the mosquito, pierced through these barriers and showed how easily something from each of them could seep into the other, revealing how arbitrary and temporary all these defenses and boundaries truly were.

The king of the kingdom ordered the mosquito to be locked in a golden cage and asked the wisest person in the kingdom, a little girl who understood the language of all animals, to talk to the mosquito. The girl listened to the mosquito's story and told the king the moral lesson that the mosquito had taught. Instead of punishing the mosquito, they made it an important minister in the kingdom. The royal physician healed the mosquito, and the kingdom's scientists transformed it into a beautiful prince.

The prince married the girl when she became old enough. She was the only one who saw the wisdom in the simple mosquito that had only come to sting. To everyone's surprise, as they did not know enough about science, it turned out that the mosquito was actually female. So, the wise girl ended up marrying a mosquito princess who loved to wear princes' clothes. The two of them lived happily ever after, a bit distanced from all other humans who were unwilling to give up the barriers and divisions that separated them.

When the people discovered that the mosquito was female and had married a woman, they wanted to punish her. However, the girl, who was once a wise child, ran away with the mosquito princess to the mountains. There, they lived happily, far from people's eyes and the fears that drove society. They listened to animals, studied life principles with them, trying to deeply understand their languages. Over the years, they published scientific papers that were meant to bring human society closer to their compassionate worldview, which looked broadly at life as one intertwined woven fabric.
