If you got any weird messages, comments, etc from this account, a bunch of my things across the web were hacked. Thankfully, I have been able to lock them down in quick succession. Adding proper MFA...

Why the hell is this not opt out by default? Because they want you to not notice. They want the abandoned blogs. They want the MONEY. Don't let them have it. Poke your friends you know don't pay attention and get them back here to turn this shit off.

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.

These are... Amazing

What's the strangest or most interesting fictional arthropod you've dreamed up or heard of? This is a skyweaver, a flying spider!

I have a bunch of ideas that I need to get drawn eventually, but here’s three I was thinking about recently: toxic frog-mimicking tetrigid, snail-shell dwelling mygalomorph (like a hermit crab, with doorstop pedipalps), very tiny water-strider surface tension skating mantis

The regular ekiba thrall

A monster from my TTRPG horror supplement, Grim Accoutrements.

An ekiba, a vampire-like creature, can enthrall several unfortunate people into service for themselves as well as their devoted. This causes the effected to become near-mindless servants that move about almost like marionettes.
