It’s Looking Like The Iof Have Officially Breached Rafah. Every Palestinian I Follow, Most Of Whom

Ohhh nooo I've dropped all my fucks to give! Please come back within 200 business days and maybe I'll have the patience to listen to your bullshit!

FUCK AI!! Artist made by people will ALWAYS be more valuable and enjoyable than art made by the machine, especially unethically. Reminder that stolen art is still stolen! AI is an amalgamation of artists hard work stolen without their permission and frankenstein'd together to create something that should have never existed in the first place. And while there CAN be AI used for good, such as how they used it in SpiderVerse to aide the process - it was used by consenting artists that did not do the entire job for them, but rather menial tasks.

AI is incredibly dangerous for other means, especially with the making of videos, games, and other stuff. As someone who finds home in artist fairs / alleys and whose whole love and joy comes from creation, the feeling is disheartening but more-so lights a fire. Human art will always prevail. We will never die, and to not let AI steal - in reference to my previous post, Go into your settings (under visibility) and check off a setting that lets Tumblr use your art for training - and if you're on computer and have the means to do so, use Nightshade / Glaze and poison your art. How this works, is that the programs will shift the pixels ever-so-slightly, unnoticed by the human eye but will completely fuck up the training for the AI - so your picture of a cat could end up looking like a really uncanny picture of a cow to the bot :) ( Though, I do realize it takes a long time to download? I haven't quite gotten around to using it yet, but I've heard from quite a few people that it works x) ) on the other hand, there's a warmup sketch and i have been trying to think of ways to experiment with my art style :))

Did I 100% Alterna? Yes. Did I do after alterna? Yes. Did I read any of the logs? No lmao

EVERY TIME EVERY FUCKING TIME CAN HE NOT BE HAPPY FOR ONCE? CAN MY BOY BE HAPPY ONE FUCKING TIME WITHOUT SOMETHING GOING HORRIBLY WRONG??

Why aren’t the Gaza and Palestine tags trending anymore?

Are some people just done talking because of the ICJ’s hearing and subsequent ruling? (That’s when I noticed the tag start to dip.)

It’s still happening.

Innocent people are still being murdered

Innocent people are still starving

Innocent people are still losing their parents, siblings, children, friends, and neighbors

Innocent people are still fearing for their lives

Israel is currently committing war crimes with the full support of: President Biden (USA), Chancellor Scholz (Germany), Prime Minister Sunak (UK), President Macron (France), Prime Minister Meloni (Italy).

I just don’t understand what’s happening, why is this losing steam? Please, someone, explain it to me. I genuinely want to know.

My pinned post is still, and for the foreseeable future will always be, sulfurcosmos post, which shows you ways you can help Palestine - but always do your own research!

Find ways to spread the word.

Tell your family, tell your friends, tell your coworkers.

Repost others posts that help spread the word.

Lift up Palestinians voices.

Please don’t let this just go away.

Please don’t let those voices be silenced.

So I wanted to know what kind of crystal could go in a wizard staff, right? so I googled “big crystal,” as one does, and got an Etsy ad for This

And as you all know I Am currently taking a geology class, so I am probably more emotionally invested in minerals than usual. But that is...very obviously not a natural crystal.

So I did some looking around on Etsy.

Now, these shops all seem to advertise to the “witchy”/“spiritual healing” type of person. And there are a lot of them. Crystals are a Big Thing on Etsy. And ALMOST ALL of them are obviously artificially cut into the same sort of prism with a triangular pyramid top, regardless of the actual sort of crystal it is supposed to be.

Even like, fucking, obsidian. Obsidian is volcanic glass, it doesn’t form crystals at all, it is not a crystal

I’m not throwing any shade at people who are into crystals for like witchy reasons, but it really seems like if crystals are spiritually important to you, you should know what a crystal is...right...?
