A conversation I had with my Grandpa recently. I love him a lot.

Some of you need this psa:

I do not deserve to be murdered for being Jewish/ Israeli. Killing random Jews won’t free Palestine.

We have the same right to exist in the public space as you do. Your sentiments on the war in Gaza & the Israeli government and army all don’t matter when it comes to that.

AI and Tumblr

In the event of any kind of AI Art API is to be trained on this platform I do not give permission for my art to be sampled or used to train AI without financial compensation, artists hold the copyright to our art and any intentional mimicry or sampling of my art by an artificial intelligence is infringing on an artist's rights to their creations.

We as artists will not take this grim proposal between Tumblr and Midjourney laying down, this was the last safe heaven for a lot of us and you are now holding knives to us entirely to solve your financial woes instead of offering meaningful solutions. You are going to bleed your community of all trust and all revenue you still eek out of us. Your ways have changed from one of a community built around passion for fandom and the creative mind to one of greed and exclusion. You have been showing true colors and they are ugly, they are sickening, and they will kill your platform. If this deal goes through, may your platform die slow and painfully, may you watch your most loyal of whales walk away and leave you drying out in the hot pavement that is bankruptcy.

I exist for spite but also for love. I have sharp teeth and a soft heart.

To my readers and friends: 💭

Important Disclaimer: Under NO circumstances do I support the viewpoints of Joe Anoa'i.

As someone who grew up playing WWE video games, but turned away for different reasons, the Tribal Chief brought me back.

Rage, shock, disappointment, denial. So many emotions have fueled or calmed down over and over again.

Recent events almost shifted my heart as an overall writer in this fandom.

Like many have said, I fully support any choices made as we navigate everything together and please know that I will never discourage anyone from this point forward.

Thank you so much. - V. 💜🫂

If recent events are anything of a warning to the rich don't kick the common people around we will all eventually have had enough. Almost no-one will be sad about it, some may even celebrate.
