Usually I just reblog, but this is a question that’s been burning in my head.

What were people’s first exposure to the Akira Slide *tm? The animation where the character skids their bike sideways with one foot close to the ground.

I know it’s been replicated countless times, but I am genuinely curious. I’ll go first, my earliest exposure to this homage was in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003) theme song.

If you can think of any specific usages, please let me know

There was one of those hyperspecific polls that had an option like “your grandfather told you war stories that he never told anyone else” and now I feel like I have to tell the story about how a spider saved my grandpa’s life in WWII and how my family doesn’t kill spiders because we owe our existence to that One Single Spider

Hey, hot take, but if a company decides they no longer want to distribute a piece of media they own the rights to, then they should be legally required to sign the rights back over to the creator.

They shouldn't be allowed to just sit on the IP for the rest of time, especially if they have no intention of ever releasing it again.

Just the one again

So, you may have heard that Tumblr is using people’s art to train AI. It does this by taking any images people upload, and feeding them to the AI for training.

So I made a little thing you can use to defend against this. It might not be SUPER effective, but it’ll at least slow things down and hurt the overall effectiveness of AIs trained on it.

This is my anti-AI image. It’s designed to clog up the training of the AI by being mass reblogged / uploaded.

To understand how this works, you first have to understand how AI image generation works. The AI is trained on a massive amount of images, and learns to reproduce images that are similar.

Now, we want to make a significant portion of the AI’s training data consist of this image. If we do this, then the AI will struggle to generate art effectively, as it won’t have as much viable training data. Instead it’ll be more likely to just generate an image similar to this one.

Reblog it to spread the word, but be sure to take a screenshot or download the image instead, rather than just reblogging. That way it counts it as a new image, and feeds it to the AI again.

In hindsight it's very insulting to be told that flunking out of college due to adhd is actually "quite common"
