based on this post xd

i’m going to hold your hands when i say this and i am only going to be kind about it once: ai does not belong in fandom spaces, ever. not in writing, not in art, not in video, not at all. it does not matter how bad you want to see your favourite characters kiss, or how much you need a bit of help finishing a chapter, or whatever.

make friends with artists. commission somebody. learn to draw yourself. ask for a beta read. try a writing partnership. fandom spaces are communities, so engage with them! it is about the journey and the fact that we all love something enough to create and build together about that thing.

spending 30 seconds to kill a tree and get an AI to push out some soulless empty piece of “content” is antithetical to the entire point of being engaged with fandom, and if you’ve taken to doing this you should really reconsider if you belong in these spaces with the rest of us.

Okay so we have this huge problem with forgetting about everything that’s happened by the time the next election rolls around so I’d like to keep a running list of things as they’re happening to help remind us when the 2026 midterms roll around. And please add to this if I’ve missed anything.

Donald Trump has now backed off the tariffs and other threats against Colombia. Note for future reference: this comes just hours after Trump made the threat in the first place and he and the Colombian president got into a big fight on social media.

February 2025

I’ll keep adding to this list as new things come up and, again, please feel free to add anything I’ve missed. I know that in this world of constant news it’s easy to forget, so let’s give our future selves a little help!

Saw some of this on BlueSky, but in case anyone needs it: CDC recommended immunization schedules, Wayback Machine-archived from 2024.

Birth to 6 Years Old

7 to 18 Years Old

Adulthood

Don't rely on Internet Archive either, download these as PDFs (you can do that from the "print" link on the archived page).

If you're a parent, tell your doctor that you want these vaccines on this schedule for your child, even if/when the CDC changes their recommendations.

If you're an adult, or soon to be, and believe you may have missed any of these vaccines as a child, talk to your doctor about accessing your vaccination record and getting caught up. Many (most?) states also have an online vaccination record lookup.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

—Diary of Anne Frank, January 13, 1943

"The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood he was one of them."

- Turkish Proverb

Okay, trees, I know it's hard to understand but those billionaires? That orange stain now in office? They're the axe, honey. They've always been the axe.

And we've never been anything but kindling to them.

USA people! Buy NOTHING Feb 28 2025. Not anything. 24 hours. No spending. Buy the day before or after but nothing. NOTHING. February 28 2025. Not gas. Not milk. Not something on a gaming app. Not a penny spent. (Only option in a crisis is local small mom and pop. Nothing. Else.) Promise me. Commit. 1 day. 1 day to scare the shit out of them that they don't get to follow the bullshit executive orders. They don't get to be cowards. If they do, it costs. It costs.

Then, if you can join me for Phase 2. March 7 2025 thtough March 14 2025? No Amazon. None. 1 week. No orders. Not a single item. Not one ebook. Nothing. 1 week. Just 1.

If you live outside the USA boycott US products on February 28 2025 and stand in solidarity with us and also join us for the week of no Amazon.

Are you with me?

Spread the word.

bring back tumblr ask culture let me. bother you with questions and statements

what a shame it would be if this were to be rebloged by a bunch of people, spreading the message further than the original reddit post could have ever reached.

what do you mean elon musk did a nazi salute on live tv at the united states presidential inauguration twice and is now erasing the evidence off the internet by replacing the footage with the crowd cheering instead?

would be a shame if people reblogged this, wouldn’t it?

I want you to remember:

The fascists hate you too and they just will pretend otherwise until after they've killed the rest of us, before they turn on you.

... car

I am going to start posting more on here! (Hopefully I’ll be consistent (probably not😂) but halloo!

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 || We Both Reached For The Gun

A friendly reminder from one artist to another; RENT was a discarded idea. RENT was something Jonathan Larson came up with and forgot. And it changed the world.

That rough draft you have, that stupid idea you had three years ago? That could alter someone’s brain chemistry. You could change the world.

You could change the world.

Please don’t give up. Please don’t stop writing. Please don’t stop drawing. Please don’t stop making music. Please don’t stop thinking those beautiful, terrifying thoughts that live inside your mind. Because you’re incredible.

And if some random guy waiting tables in SoHo can alter the minds of a nation, then why can’t you?

And don’t give me some crap about you being too old, either. He was in his thirties when RENT got its funding. He was dead before opening night.

Moral of the story is this; it’s never too late. Even after you’re gone, you will continue to change the world. You mean something, your art means something.

You could change the world.

Yes yes yes, please! It’s one of my favorites!

I think more ppl should watch/read D. Gray Man

Am I getting a good grade in tumblr mutual?

reminder that being against ai also means being against character.ai and not using character.ai and not interacting with character.ai

i've never talked to chatgpt i've never talked to character.ai i have no interest in talking to a chatbot even if it's fun or based on my comfort character. if we want companies to stop using ai we need to tell them we aren't going to interact with it - so don't.

don't talk to robots. full stop.

for tonight's performance, give it up for ariana griande and sabrina scarpenter

one of my favorite redraws (original meme from lifesmptumblr on twitter, run by @dragonheart2497)

[TW Grooming mention]

It’s absolutely disgusting how the LITERAL CHILD GROOMER still has a platform, but that they use that platform to post shit like this without any repercussions.

[context, I did not make this video but he makes some really good points]
