Might Try This Actually, I've Got A Fair Few Characters With Pretty Vibrant Color Schemes (exhibit A:

im trying to get the "To Live Forever" achievement in No Man's Sky so i started a permadeath run. It is Hard. not because of any of the actual permadeath stuff, no no. i am very good at the game. it is hard because i have to spend 5 hours building a base EVERY GODDAMN TIME. it is part of the MAIN QUEST. that you CANNOT IGNORE. seething. i absolutely despise this part of the game and if I turn off tutorial quests then it doesn't count as a permadeath run, for some reason...

no mans sky, i love you but like. come on. 40 side quests are not essential to the main quest

its time to finally get a new brush and start working with that. a few drawings will be awkward until i get the settings and stuff right, but then i will finally be on my way to 1000 hmmm.

WOWZA i am going to be struggling for a long time to improve my art i realize. literally every artist i look up to and try to learn from has super thin lineart and lots of detail but i keep falling into thick lineart. i have to fix that but its so hard. maybe i need to get my eyes checked out.

...save for those with which we partner.

cool. real cool. fuck this. tomorrow i am going to nightshade all of my art (and Glaze it too) and replace every single image on my blog with those versions of it. i might not even opt out just to poison the AI well more (should be opt-in anyway, pricks).

fuck you all. in fact, i might just delete my art sideblog. i'm not gonna post any new art at all actually. I'll pivot to other sites for that. thanks for making this place even more of an uphill battle to have fun and share things on.

Hi, Tumblr. It’s Tumblr. We’re working on some things that we want to share with you. 

AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.

Here are the important details:

We already discourage AI crawlers from gathering content from Tumblr and will continue to do so, save for those with which we partner. 

We want to represent all of you on Tumblr and ensure that protections are in place for how your content is used. We are committed to making sure our partners respect those decisions.

To opt out of sharing your public blogs’ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogs’ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the “Prevent third-party sharing” option. 

For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc. 

Please note: If you’ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, we’ve automatically enabled the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.

If you have concerns, please read through the Help Center doc linked above and contact us via Support if you still have questions.

I wrote nearly 4300 words today. In just one day I've gone from "yeah I still have a bit left before I can start doing the drawings for the book" to "oh hell yeah i can just do a little 3-page epilogue and then art it up" in one day. I'm crazy. the end of this project is in sight. i am so happy about this informa

show your local dragons some love by contributing to their hoards (especially if they have more specific things) (they will remember this and you can summon them in your hour of need)

the joker cosplayer trying to method act in my direction:

i think in universe Kuri would be a little bit of a meme. at least amongst Aubreys more invested fans. any photo taken of Aubrey after they start dating just has a Kuri scarily making eye contact with the photographer somehow

this is about proshippers btw. i know very little about them but what i do know scares me. stay away pretty please.

i love you block button i love you tag filtering i love you "this post is not for me" button i love you tumblr i am being besieged by so many blogs i dont want anywhere near me right now

tumblr might be the thing that finally makes me learn to just leave spaces with things and people that make me angry or uncomfortable instead of fighting it
