Peeked at instagram recently and see that its also feeding posts to AI, with no way of opting out in some regions and in the regions they do allow it, they made the process extremely hard and hidden and you have to provide a screenshot to prove your art has been stolen by AI???

God that fucking app is a cesspool now. I really want to just delete all my posts there but IG is the first place i ever posted my art on the internet... I regret it now.

Honestly everything META touches is a cesspool. Remember when they made a twitter copy and made it impossible to delete without also deleting your instagram so they can brag about the high user numbers?

Hm it really sucks that entertainment and especially "immersive" entertainment is rapidly going down hill in quality because the people who are in charge are being as stingy as possible, despite society leaning more heavily into fantasy and escapism every day

thinking about colin saying he doesnt want to be a spokesperson in contrast with sam embracing the opportunity to be a spokesperson, how even though being closeted in an extremely heterosexual and homophobic environment is a painful experience colin can blend in but thats never been an option for sam or any other black athlete. sam is obviously the type of person to speak up about injustice whether he's obligated to or not but in many ways he doesnt really have a choice, not in the way colin does as a white guy.

even within the queer community a cis masc white guy like colin is not going to experience the kind of bigotry a gender non conforming or trans queer person would. and thats not to say that being closeted is a privilege (it is so very very not) or that the homophobia people like colin face isnt awful and painful but it's just. different. and we see this all the time in real life, there are so many white queer celebrities who feel the same way as colin about being a "spokesperson" but really no one wants to be a spokesperson, no one wants to have to fight just for their right to exist but we're not exactly given a choice.

Endlessly tickled by the idea of Akira being a good shot but a shit gamer. I like to think its cause hes got incredible hand eye coordination and super steady ‘surgeon’ hands; hes very good with precise movements, but panics when he has to do brain melting inputs. His brain can keep up but its hard to make his hands follow suit. Its why u can have him be dogshit at arcade cabinets; panicking with the little joystick and button mashing like mad, while having him be a beast at things like darts and billiards.

The only arcade games he can play is house of the dead-esque shooting games (hes literally at the top of the leaderboards for MILES and he draws crowds whenever he plays) and DDR cabinets (hes just very light on his feet)(NOT to be confused with stepmania; he would die if he had to do arrow inputs with his HAND). Its kinda fun to watch him fumble with the other silly gimmick cabinets, but its more entertaining to watch him do what hes good at. If u take him to play darts, and if the darts are super cheap, he will absolutely try his best to split them down the middle each time. Doesnt always work, but its insane to know that he lands the bullseye literally 100% of the time.

Anyway they can change between being tiny and human sized. And when they're tinier they can only be seen by the other fae or their selected humans. So if you just passed Noll on the street while Shavuli was perched on his shoulder chatting away you wouldn't see or hear her.

Man anyone remember that era during the 2016 elections/after Trump got elected where MAGA hats were all over the place

And so in order to be snarky about disliking Trump, people started making hats that looked just like MAGA hats/used the same font but in different colors, but with like liberal slogans on them or whatever. And then the MAGA people started making the hats in colors other than bright ass red to combat it.

Because let me tell you. Maybe I was being paranoid. But as a queer Black woman, I was not pausing to squint and read what everyone's hat said at that point to figure out if I could feel safe or not. I just started avoiding everyone in a baseball cap with that font on it like. In general. And honestly passing someone with an anti-MAGA MAGA hat on was almost weirder than passing the actual MAGA people cause like. Cool. You're wearing the 'hey you're possibly in danger' colors/clothes, but are trying to reassure me I am not in danger. By looking... just like the people I'd be in danger around.

Like IDK was I the only one who'd feel a jolt of panic whenever someone was wearing a MAGA hat? Even now I'm still wary of forward-facing baseball caps in general. Even if I did end up reading your hat and seeing that it says 'Make America Gay Again' instead of 'Make America Great Again' I'm still dealing with the fear response, now its just for no reason, which was honestly more frustrating than sidestepping a white supremacist.

Or was this just a 'Black person at a primarily white university' problem?

this will be unpopular probably but idk i've been called slurs a time or two and it's personally uncomfortable to see... obviously do as you please in general but when interacting with me or my posts i'd really prefer if yall didn't casually use fag, etc in place of gay and stuff 👍

scholastic book fairs allowing people to "opt out" of diverse books..... claiming it's either allow schools to "opt out" or not offer the books at all.... oh it's so over...

as much as i appreciate all depictions of trans masc people in art, this isnt some kind of put down like omg you gotta draw ALL your art like this but... its honestly quite nice to see some trans masc characters that  have breasts  and are completely fine with that. like i get that top surgery scars have just become the visual short hand for ‘trans man/,masc’ character but thats not the reality for every trans masc person, not all trans masc people experience top dysphoria all the time, or even at all, and i feel like if we normalized the idea of breast tissue on men it would help to lessen the social stigma of men with breasts, cis or trans. i just love to see trans masc characcters who still have their breasts because its a reflection of the sort of trans experiences and bodies i am familiar with
