trendy bubble thingy yey

who else is celebrating Pocky Day?

what about Peglin, the Peggle Rougelike, the 2022 game Peglin?

“emotional support dumbass” is what i’m calling my himbo boyfriend whenever i meet him

trust, there are better ways to get partner than slaving your life away for crumbs.

you’re already doing it here, you could probably extend that much further so you’re not completely drained. for example, youtube content as a vtuber.

anyway i’ll get off my soapbox lol

partner shouldn’t be forced if you’re trying not turn burn out. a lot of people who do partner pushes go right back down to lower viewership.

it’s a shiny badge, not the endgame. partner will come from the fruits of your labor, focus on attracting returning viewers, not numbers alone

This. THIS. Normie friends always mention how furries must be rich to buy art and suits (and like any demographic, I'm sure *a few* are) but for most it's a passion that they work hard and save for, and they *value artwork and artists*.

Throwing this classic I made back out there because it’s Monday and that’s the fun day

depends on the gut, but i’m also biased towards abs in general soooo-

anyone wanna buy me a dragon pussy? i hear it smells really good

still one of my favorite album covers to this day

i love how this one turned out 🧡💙

Art is emotion through expression. AI does not think and it cannot feel. It is a program designed to scrounge the internet to pass things off as its own. All the while stealing jobs from real artists and soaking up drinking water.

long story short my beloved u are made with so much heart

AI generated content disclosure via Arc Raider's Steam page: The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this: During the development process, we may use procedural- and AI-based tools to assist with content creation. In all such cases, the final product reflects the creativity and expression of our own development team.

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.

They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

“if you’re struggling with self-doubt or depression and you’re still alive, that’s depression struggling with you”

what if i like foxes but want the pits anyway? 👀

someone drew a falic object on the side of this building

casuals will say Street Fighter is too complex and then go play League of Legends

A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: Using Generative AI? You’re prompting with Hitler! GenAI is a Fascist Project! Try using your brain instead Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

New awareness campaign

still one of my favorite souvenirs from my time with friends

yes i’m a native new yorker, yes i like these, i just think they’re neat

i’m back on my shit again

binge-watching cleaning and restoration videos because it tickles the brain for some reason

always lookin out, gurl! 🧡

if you’re an artist working commission, and you’re not using Nightshade when you’re posting your art online to protect against AI scrapers.. why?

i feel if you’re anti-AI, you should be using these by default to post stuff online

obviously give the best version to the client, but you know

go and download it, try it out, especially if you’ve been looking to get away from Adobe for a long time.

you now have literally zero excuse.

thank you for listening to my TED Talk

overall, great changes, and the fact that Affinity is allowed to thrive and be well off without completely sucking Canva’s dick is great!

i hope this trend continues that their promise of “free for everyone forever” remains well in good hands.

there is nothing that’s needed at all to enjoy and use Affinity. just that you download and have fun like we have been for the longest time with the previous paid apps.

i am personally really happy that they did this, it means i can recommend the app to even more people without much hassle

you can go download it for completely free, just need a Canva account, which brings me to my next point.

no, you are not paying a dime. the Canva Pro subscription is only there for AI features. so if you’re that opposed to using AI, you can just not pay. it’s entirely optional

the new workflows are sick, and i really appreciate what they managed to do with the Studio system, how it feels just like the pages in Davinci Resolve as opposed to the shitty Adobe-esque Dynamic Link(it was always trash, stop acting like it was ever good)

let me say, first off, Affinity and all of its features are entirely free. the same features that i and millions of others have been using for the last 5+ years are still free, and they’ve even added new ones to boot

it’s awesome, i love that they did this!

for anyone who’s been using this for a while(in my case 5 years), the initial announcement might come as a shock to you. i can already hear the “no! i don’t want AI in my software!”

i have my own thoughts on AI, but i’ll save those since they’re not relevant here.
