I feel like we need to talk about platonic affection more often.

We need to talk about hugs and platonic kisses and cuddles and being able to do those things without the pressure of a relationship.

I have a very good friend of mine and I’m ace and she’s aro/ace but we give each other presents all the time and we do head pats and touch eachothers hair and our other friends would always say we would make a good couple or chant “kiss kiss kiss” when we would talk. Why can’t people just love eachother in a none romantic way?

Hey be sure to go to your blog settings, head down to visibility and turn on this little button that prevents Tumblr from stealing your posts and using it to train AI learning models. Good job, fuckheads, great update.

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.

1 month.

I had peace for 1 month.

And now here I am, getting near-nudes on my for-you page. AGAIN!

And to make it worse, it's because transgender is trending on Tumblr.

PLEASE GOD DO NOT TAKE THIS AS TRANSPHOBIA! I AM NOT TRANSPHOBIC! I AM NONBINARY MYSELF AND I FULLY SUPPORT ALL MEMBERS OF THE LGBTQIA2S+!

But, GOD, tag your fucking shit! I've literally made a post about this already, and I hate that I'm making another one!

Yes, honey, your picture where you're wearing a bra and panties and teasingly lowering the waistband is NSFW. Yes, babe, your picture where you're wearing boxers and thrusting your hips into the camera is NSFW.

I don't care if you're 'not naked'. You are near naked. You are posing in a way that is meant to be explicit. You are posing in a way that is NSFW.

Please, for fucks sake, tag your posts! There's a tagging system for a reason! There's post filtering for a reason! I don't want to see you practically naked, posing like it's for playboy/girl!

PLEASE USE THE TAGS, THEY ARE THERE FOR A REASON! I don't want to see NSFW posts or pictures on my for-you page. I AM ASEXUAL AND IT MAKES ME VERY UNCOMFORTABLE!

Workings on a GameJam, and we're doing a joke game. One part of the joke is that I made a horse entirely out of default unity shapes. Here is the beautiful monstrosity.

Here are a couple different views

Making the ears was a pain because I had to make a cube as a child of another object, rotate it, and then stretch the parent object in order to get the points.

I Had to do something similar with a cylinder for the hooves

And lastly there's the mane and tail hairs

Which is made of 319 cylinders.

When looking at the stats while looking at the horse shows 1444 batches, 160.3k Tris, 158.3k Verts, and 719 Shadow casters.

ART IS NOT MINE* The Art Against Apartheid toolkit contains 100 posters made by artists from across the world in solidarity with Palestine.

There are some fantastic pieces in here and above are some of my faves. If you wanna check them out yourself go to againstapartheid.art

Free Palestine, stop the genocide.

People say magic and spells don't exist, but I have full proof this is incorrect.

Below is a powerful spell of discomfort with purely verbal components.
