Search LibGen, the Pirated-Books Database That Meta Used to Train AI Millions of books and scientific papers are captured in the collection’s current iteration.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Crazy how I forget what socials I have- Anyways! Have my boy, Dr. Icarus and the lovely farmer lady that mauled him (she belongs to a friend of mine teehee) I'm obsessed with this tired old man

don’t store your money in PayPal. put it in your traditional bank or something fdic insured. there’s no methods to reclaim your money if PayPal decides to close your account unlike any other bank

I have nothing to add to the discourse today that hasn't already been said more eloquently elsewhere, but if you're feelin' helpless I might suggest that this is an excellent time to toss a coin to your local smut peddler. ♥

🔞 artists feel free to reply with your work and donation links!

I got through to Mastercard and the supervisor I spoke to said they're actually aware of this, they've received multiple calls and it's been escalated to their global HQ and they're awaiting a response. KEEP CALLING!!

Maybe we could find out.

Mastercard (US): 1-800-627-8372
Mastercard (Int.): +1-636-722-7111
Visa (US + Can): 1 800 847 2911
Visa (AUS): 1 800 125 440
PayPal: +44-0203-901-7000

DON'T STOP CALLING.

email them if you want, sure, but the fact that they are requesting people to *email them instead* (presumably because emails are much easier to ignore) means that the calls are WORKING, i.e. becoming a massive nuisance and interrupting workflow.

once again, DON'T STOP CALLING.

I made a quick and dirty anti-censorship cheat sheet to help onboard people and direct their energy in a productive direction. This isnt as comprehensive as various websites being shared around, but it should be easy to share and save.

Save the png and repost as widely as you can

I will never understand how some people can just use other human beings and not care about the damage they cause.
If y'all could check out my friend's thread here, donate or share, whatever you can do, it'd be so appreciated. They and their sister are wonderful people and don't deserve this

Eating this character like rock candy btw /pos
I think I'm getting kind of better at this whole rendering thing

Been a while so here's some art from the stash! Fountain Hydrangea Pearl, she belongs to my friend Lilla! I'm pretty happy with how it came out, I'm still working to get better at backgrounds but it's progress!!

Wow what a wonderful time for a pipe to burst in our basement and leave our entire house with no water.... cwazy...

Goodbye clean dishes, laundry, pee and poo, cooking w water, watering the plants, making sure the cats have water, etc. XD

Gonna be sooo fun waiting for this to get fixed. /sarcasm

A bunch of shit has been happening irl and with my health so I haven't been the most active, but have some art for @thea-vt.vtubers.social for art fight!
#oc #originalcharacter #digitalart #artfight

- I'm getting there! I've gotten some more art fight attacks done to help keep the art muscles moving without stressing myself out, and I took a whole day offline to recuperate from the whole,,,psychotic episode, so I'm getting there! A reminder to check in on your loved ones! <333

I will also say, my mental has been tanking recently. Had my first bad episode for the first time in a long time and I'm struggling to have the energy to even get up or eat or do anything or talk to anyone. But I'm doing my best to push through! I'm slow moving on the last two comms I have but-

These were the art fight attacks I dished out on the first day!! The first two characters belong to Ashur1sbor3d and the last one belongs to Caskix on art fight! I had a blast drawing these lil babs up!

Some outfit concepts for the lil guy!! I plan on making more bc honestly it's just fun to do lol.
Moth motifs are their main thing so far, but I'd like to figure out if I can add snake motifs to some other outfits!!
#digitalart #originalcharacter

I've got a persona/mascot thingy in the works hehehehegehehe, no finalized references or anything yet but I have a few outfit concepts and shit! Been working on them in bits and pieces between comms

Basically Fae Shape-shifter guy :D have a peep!
#digitalart #originalcharacter

Also a little tricky, Bluesy doesn't have it's own option for scheduling posts it seems. So my notes app it is XDDDD

Trying to line up some posts so I can start posting here regularly! I wanna get back into art as much as I can, maybe make some adopts (though I'm not sure if there's any community for oc adopt sellers on here 😔) and potentially open comms in the future!

Trying to get away from Instagram 😔

Why do you hate me 😔😔

Been working hard to finish up commissions and owed art before Art fight hits, so have a commission I just finished!! Thank you to my bestie Grace for always giving me BANGERS to draw XD
