i like how they give annatar that stupid little bow on his head because it align perfectly with his need for perfection. sauron is vain. he care too much about his appearance, and the implication behind that bow means he put thoughts over his image and how other people perceive him. he wants to be seen as whimsical and welcoming, so there. a bow on his head that he personally braid with his own hands. "I am the personification of kindness :3 trust me please."

I don't think I fully know who I am. Truthfully, I didn't start to learn about myself until I was seventeen. I don't remember much about my childhood, my past. Blame the adhd. It's hard to actually figure out who I am because I'll never be a "functioning" adult, I can't drive I can't get a job, it's just all frustrating y'know? It makes me hate being disabled but I know that's also just a part of who I am.

hey the loki show was still good so you are wrong

I'm glad you enjoyed the show and you're obviously the target audience for it, but I still didn't like how most of the content was handled and I didn't like Sylvie. Considering my anti-Sylvie and Loki critical posts were from 2+ years ago, you're not one of my followers; and since you sent this on anon, I'm guessing you're never going to see this (unless you're waiting for my reply).

You are absolutely entitled to your opinion (including thinking that I'm wrong) and I'm entitled to my opinion (including disliking Sylvie/the Sylvie x Loki ship, and the way the first season panned out; I've yet to see season two). I loved the first half of season one, but I personally think they botched it (except for a few fun characters/scenes). I think I just had different expectations for the show and was disappointed with the direction they took it. But I haven't talked about Loki (the character and the show) for almost two years (aside from the meme post I made that I'd written when s1 came out but only posted maybe a month ago), so idk why my critical post is so far up in the Loki/Sylvie/Marvel tag for you to find it!!

Anyway, I definitely like media that other people consider "bad" (I'll forever defend Morbius as the best gay romance of modern times) and I don't like a lot of media that other people consider "good." I'm glad you liked the show, tho! I hope the next seasons are just as good for you, and I'll try out season 2 to see if I like it any better. I'll probably just watch it anyway, since I love Loki and (most of) his variants.

Besides, season 1 did give us this scene ...

One way to avoid AI from stealing your art jobs is to make your art as varied, diverse, expressive as possible. If your art is formulaic & focuses on the same type of subject, AI can break that down to a science & duplicate it. People like SamDoesArts, who is a popular professional artist who draws beautiful girls, or people who only draw yassified, smouldering webtoon-style kpop hotties, have styles that fall heavy victim to AI takeover. That's not an insult, it's a fact.

No matter how good your art is, if all the faces, style, color, composition looks similar; you have an exploitable formula. If you make money on your art, this is a bad thing for you! It's not fair that AI is using your work without permission for no pay. But this is our modern world, & it won't go away.

All we can do is focus on the power of what makes us human. Expressiveness, diversity of subject, ages & race; story & character-driven pieces, always trying something new... So far, AI (aka, the hack-jobs stealing art to put in a formula for free without permission; this is the fault of greedy nerds, not cute robots!!) cannot duplicate things like that so easy. If you're a pro, please consider that.

If you want to protect your work from AI algorithms, there's also the revolutionary (free!) GLAZE tool, which when added to your art, will destroy all data AI-bros try to extrapolate from your work. (More info on GLAZE here!)

If you really care about making art "accessible" to everyone, you must accept that it's only ethical with permission from the creators you want to use.

Artists are not soulless billionaires or Hollywood money-machines who are robbing you of the psuedo-socialist 'right' to have an anime-you profile pic. We are real people, living paycheck to paycheck, disabled, raising families, mentally going through everything you've struggled through, & more. It's not ethical to rob us of our expression & livelihood... AI-bros, if you won't pay us for our labor, you have no right to it. Any side of the political spectrum, capitalist pig to centrist sissy to commie scum, should agree with that.

The philosophy of "it's our right to use it, just get a real job" is the very philosophy that separates you from actual artists.

Technology is a wonderful thing. Start acting worthy of that wonder. Don't be a Skynet pawn. They won't spare you just because you taught them how to generate yassified kpop elf girls.

stumbling across fandom drama that you didnt know about bc you try to stay out of fandom

[fadeintoyou1993]

having to explain to people things like. if i have to go out to do something and run errands i need to have it all mapped out and planned w like. at least a week in advance. and if i go out that day i cannot do anything else because That will be it. if i have multiple commitments that cannot be put on the same day i need one full day in between those commitments so i can rest and be recharged for that next thing otherwise i might have a breakdown in the middle of the street (again) and then That will render me unable to function for like a whole three days. and then people look at me like i choose to live like this?

i don't think me warning "i am not normal when i get to talk abt ocs" adequately prepares people for getting a minimum 2k words in response to even the simplest of questions

[musetrait]

[forffax]

Tom (and Ray, but dunno if I've talked abt her on here) is like. Mentor character who was supposed to die to serve as motivation for their protégé but they lived and had a bit of a falling out and now they're just. Allowed to exist and live outside of that role? When they never thought they'd be allowed to...

[humandisorderincarnatedean]
