little (big) announcement

Well, looks like Tumblr has taken the turn to sell data to Midjourney.

According to my archive, I've been in here for 6 or so years. I've stuck with this site for a long time, and believe it or not I'd call this hellsite a net positive for my life. I never intended to leave, even when Tumblr was boiled down to its skeleton crew. I thought I'd go out with the whole site when the servers rotted away. I've heard rumors that the CEO was taking a gander at AI but I never thought it'd pull through since the Tumblr userbase is vocally anti-AI. And, lo and behold, they slipped it as an opt-out thing into the settings very casually.

I want to hold out hope that the resulting backlash will urge Tumblr's CEO (as I don't blame most of the staff for this) to back out, but the trust has been damaged greatly over the past few months.

I do not want my art or writing or anything to be used to feed AI. As for my art, I am hesitant to keep posting here. I don't know what I'm waiting for. But if that nebulous reckoning of the end times comes, I will log out. I think I'm too emotionally attached to delete my account.

I have a Bluesky account which I am thinking of wholly migrating to. That feels weird to say; I never thought I'd make a social media account anywhere else. I made a lot of friends on Tumblr (who I am connected to via Discord and not strictly here, thankfully), and will be hunting for people I follow on BSKY as well.

I know, inevitably, not everyone will migrate to BSKY. Some people will choose Cohost (I did make an account there, but so few people I know here go there, it's not my first choice) or Dreamwidth as their new platforms of choice. But for those who are moving to Bluesky, I hope to find them.

I really don't want to leave Tumblr. Its culture and UI is truly one of a kind and is the biggest reason I've stayed. I don't want to wholly abandon ship just yet; maybe I'm too sentimental and we're already past the point of no return. I'll still be here, even if for a little while.

I'll be making this my new pinned for the foreseeable future, so let's get all this out of the way. Here's where I lurk:

Bluesky (Main)

Cohost (Main) (most likely to collect dust)

Archive of Our Own (writing only)

Neocities (as a side project, I suppose)

It's been fun. May we all trip over our shoelaces on our way out the door. o7

idk if ive ever posted it but this is my icon, its a painting by russian-born french painter serge ivanoff, of his wife, simone gentile. as far as i can tell it's been in a private collection since 2008 when it was auctioned off for 13k GBP, meaning it's not on display anywhere (and as far as I can tell it has never been, or at least not in a museum). i think this means that probably more people have witnessed it as my blog icon than they have irl. very weird to think about so please enjoy the full painting!!<3

#its kind of crazy to me that it only sold for 13k but then again it's a relatively small painting and he wasn’t extremely famous #but still famous enough to have his own wiki page and have a few of his paintings on display in museums so like. #anyway. some darcyolsson lore for you. i think ive had this icon for about 4 years now!! longest ive ever had an icon #personal #the blog

any idea when submissions open? love this blog by the way, can never go wrong with a creature with only 3 polygons

Submissions are always open but there is a backlog of submissions though. The waiting list is a few months at the moment!

#answered #faq #can you tell i've never organised anything in my life #i could have just closed submissions to keep things more tidy but it only occured to me i could do that after over a year of running #the blog #instead submissions are always open #and it takes me 5 - 10 minutes to scroll down my inbox to pick up where i've left off #embrace the chaos

365 Movies Challenge #243; The Blob (1988) dir. Chuck Russell: “Russell and Darabont didn't have a lot of rules for the blob, but they agreed the general concept of the creature was it being an inside-out stomach meaning the acid is burning, melting, and devouring almost everything it touches.“

Another post for the blog! This one's an analogy I find handy when thinking about building rpgs, and it's one I've invoked here and there without ever really laying it all out before. So, here it is!

what if all your asks were coming from one person

"all asks coming from one person" statistic is false. most asks come from different people. asks mcfuckerson, who sends 5000 asks per day, is an outlier adn should not be counted

Oh nooo I hadn’t noticed that my cat’s automatic feeder was getting low on food so as usual she dashed off when she heard the machine start but I couldn’t hear the usual sound of her food falling into the bowl so I went to look and my poor cat was just. Sitting there. Staring at her empty food bowl. Then for a second she glanced up at me then right back to her bowl with the biggest, saddest, most bewildered eyes you could ever imagine on such a small creature. I filled her bowl and the machine right away ofc but I still feel a little guilty 😭
