So if anyone hasn’t heard yet, Joe Biden visited the auto workers picket line today, making history as the first sitting US president to join an ongoing strike….ever.
While explicit support of labor unions isn’t unheard of in the history of American politics, it is within all of our lifetimes. Famously Ronald Regan was president of the Screen Actors Guild, and then went on to become one of the most anti-union, anti-labor presidents in our history.
I HIGHLY recommend everyone to grab their phones, go to the Play Store, and leave a one star review demanding this shit gets taken down.
It won't be a breeze especially since this was made hand in hand with another company - so there is definitely money involved - but it might at least encourage Tumblr to make the toggle removing Tumblr Live constant rather than lasting only a week.
App ratings DO matter and too many bad reviews can genuinely impact a company and their visibility in app stores.
(And for the lucky ones like myself that haven't seen the update roll in yet, I do recommend removing auto-updates like I did to make sure not to get it.)
I only followed you pretty recently, so what's your personal favourite piece of art you've done?
Ohhh I like this question... It'd be hard to pick a solid favourite since my opinion of my own art changes quite a bit with time but I'd probably have to say one of these
The art is so soso gorgeous oh god...the wait was so fucking worth it. You can't believe or do how fucking happy I am to see this
Aaaaaaaaaa
What a wonderful thing to wake up to
Everything in the art is so fluid and the coloring is so soft. I love the movement in both the Seika and Leila art. The fish and water is sooo good and I love how gem spiked up like that. The fire around Leila and the lighting...god...Finally I just love seeing all three of them together like that
Do expect art from me sometime soon considering this sparked my creativity again. I'm thinking a redraw of that final one in my style. I will struggle ,but it will be fucking worth it. I'm open to suggestions too! You know what? Fuck it! I will start taking requests for them. If there's something you wanna see them do...let me know! Drawing requests for the apartment trio is now open!
No, tumblr app. I did not click on that fucking monopoly ad that I haven’t even scrolled to yet and the fact that it opens anyway is the last straw that will make me stop using this app and start only looking at this site with a blocker.
i totally understand the preference for the sound of concatenative vocal synths vs deep learning based ones (dl i find is often a lot weaker than concatenative, even in voicebanks meant for powerful singing. although they can also be more tonally expressive in ways concatenative struggles with. but of course sometimes you just want the metallic sound which is easier to get concatenatively compared to dl's more autotune-y noise) BUT i do often see people say its because theyre worried about more same-y sounding tuning from the auto pitch creation functions which i get but also it does make me giggle a little because have you forgotten the endless plug-and-play war going on from the past 20 years. have you forgotten the millions of untuned covers uploaded every day since the dawn of vocal synthesis. have you forgotten the autopitchwriter debate. the more things change the more things stay the same <3
