“ai is making it so everyone can make art” Everyone can make art dipshit it came free with your fucking humanity
Oh gee, you’re right! Why didn’t the people who can’t even move their arms think of just making a painting? /s
And before anyone starts spouting some “art is more than just painting” spiel, you don’t know what kind of art someone might need to make in order to express their vision. An artist may have a very specific idea in mind to create the perfect piece of graphic art, and using music, performance, etc. just won’t cut it for them. AI is a tool that can help the disabled in so many ways. Not even just with art. Get off your high horse and accept that disabled people have different needs and, guess what, ABILITIES than you do. Fuck you, asshole.
you are a tar pit.
and you are ableist.
you’re fighting against a tool that makes art more accessible, and actively dismissing the notion that it could even possibly be doing that. this IS ableist. YOU are the tar pit in this situation.

Hi I’m disabled I’m crippled I have a disorder that makes my fingers suddenly dislocate while I’m holding my pencil I have a spinal issue that makes it hard for me to bend over a desk half of the time I have leg issues that make it difficult for me to get around etc etc etc. I also have a bunch of other issues I don’t want to tell you about.
I’m also in art college. And even if I wasn’t, I’ve been doing art for almost a decade now. I’ve been disabled the whole bloody time.
AI, isn’t art.
There are many disabled artists and we have adapted our own ways of dealing with how we create. Fuck you, we have been doing this forever.
Vincent Van Gogh had temporal lobe epilepsy; Henri Matisse became a wheelchair user after surgery for cancer; Michelangelo had osteoarthritis, limiting mobility and causing pain in his hands and feet.
Paul Smith had a severe case of cerebral palsy and created art using typewriters.
Peter Longstaff has no arms due to Thalidomide, and paints with his feet.
Frida Kahlo not only had polio that disabled her as a child, but of course as we all know was injured in a bus accident at the age of 18, which caused her lifelong pain and medical problems.
Fuck, you want a personal annecdote? I knew a girl (we have lost touch since) who was paralysed from the neck down and she painted with her mouth and there are other artists who do so too! And with eye tracking technology I’m sure disabled artists will be getting more and more tools as the years pass. But we do NOT condone AI art. All that does is put us, real disabled artists, who exist and need support, out of jobs and commissions.
Fuck you.
hi, another disabled person here for more personal anecdotes! here is an art piece i made entirely with my non dominant hand 1 week before my most recent shoulder surgery on that same arm. i also wear splint rings to keep my fingers from dislocating while painting (or playing bass guitar cause i do that too). i make most of my income off hand painted art despite having hand tremors, frequent wrist dislocations/subluxations, and migraines.
my friend and her wife also make their incomes off wig making, leatherwork, and digital collage prints. both have chronic pain as well.
our lines arent perfect because we have shaky hands but thats ok, make it a feature not a flaw in your art. fuck AI.
Anyone who thinks physically disabled people need to use art stealing AI to make our own art is the ableist, actually.
Mine isn’t as drastic (yet) but I’ve been having to wear wrist braces and finger splints since childhood off and on because using my hands in a repetitive motions causes them to be in pretty excruciating pain.
What is my art medium of choice? Knitting. You know, that thing where you have to do a repetitive motion over and over again. I hold my needles a bit strange, I knit through the pain, I sometimes have to give up working on it for weeks at a time. But I will not stop because it’s what makes my heart sing.
Disabled artists don’t need your pity, we’ve been getting by, doing what makes us happy despite the pain and hardships for thousands of years, probably longer, I bet there were neolithic disabled artists.
No actual real artist wants or uses AI, including disabled artists. AI is for losers who are scared of the extremely important phase in art where you suck and want to skip it by stealing and not even in a cool “I’m emulating your style because I wanna learn from it” way.
Go suck at art for a couple years like the rest of us and stop talking over disabled artists.
Using both Glaze and Nightshade would corrupt the generation of pictures mimicking artist AND mess with the AI’s recognition of what everything is. Like it would generate a dog when you ask for a cat.
And it would be hell for AI bros to remove the cloaked pictures from their database ʕ 👀人ʔ

UNFOLLOW ME RIGHT FUCKING NOW IF YOU THINK ARO MEN ARENT PART OF THE COMMUNITY I HAVE NO TIME FOR YOUR BIGOTRY
following you now because people need to know Exclusion is Not Okay! Again:
Exclusion is Not Okay!
The LGBTQIA+ community was BUILT on excluded and marginalized groups coming together to fight for recognition and acceptance. Aro/Ace people not finding acceptance in THIS community? Of ALL places?!?! UNACCEPTABLE.
If you aren’t willing to acknowledge and accept people who don’t fit into your preexisting worldview, it doesn’t matter how wide that view is. You’re doing the same thing that others have done to you SO. DAMN. MUCH.
too sleepy to elaborate at this time but I miss the old fandom culture of interacting with fanfic writers and fanfic artists as members of the fandom community who enjoyed engagement and discussion and feedback instead of the modern trend of seeing us as content creators up on a pedestal who don’t need positive feedback but DO need to churn out constant content to feed the a03 machine
If anyone wonders why I don’t bother with Severitus or the fact I don’t make art for it anymore unless paid, or as a gift to a friend-THIS IS WHY. Burnout was also a key factor and the moment I stopped I got complaints from people I had never seen nor heard of before.
Upset that someone abandoned a fic? Or they don’t draw this THING anymore? I wonder why, hmmm.
I legit had a huge ass convo with @sanctuary-angel about this in the wee hours of the morning lol.
3. LET THE SOFT ANIMAL THAT IS YOUR BODY LOVE WHAT IT LOVES
For those who are like- huh… here’s a translation
1) Be funny/ continue the online joke: persona you are conveying ( Think Gorbachev)
2) Have sex/fuck someone ( It is specifying say straight sex but we can ignore that part on tumblr)
3) Partake in self care
STRAIGHT SEX? IM TALKING ABOUT MAKING THINGS WITH YOUR HANDS, RIVALING PROMETHEUS IN HIS IDEA TO BREATHE LIFE INTO CLAY. IM TALKING ABOUT TRANSFORMING YOUR BODY IN YOUR IMAGE TO MAKE IT TASTE SWEETER, LIKE WATER INTO WINE. IM TALKING ABOUT PICKING UP THE PIECES AND CREATING SOMETHING NEW, TO FINISH WHAT THE COWARD FRANKENSTEIN NEVER TRULY STARTED.
this is legendary because you as you go you see the photo itself and you’re “oh this is some symbolic / surrealist art” and then the TITLE hits you like a shotgun shell
In case you were unaware, Moby Dick is one of the foundational texts of cosmic horror. The White Whale is a god, maybe even The God. And Ahab Hates Him.
I want a Tesla whose neural networks will whimper when I lobotomize them
I want a self-driving car that will text me a suicide note and then destroy itself by flinging itself into a ravine because its oil light turned on and it isn’t strong enough to withstand what I’d do to it when I opened up the hood
All I’m fucking saying is that if I’m gonna be scared to exist as a pedestrian then it’s only fair that I get to make cars experience body horror right fucking back.
You are talking about horses
can confirm, my horse texted me a suicide note a few months ago
one time I was at a bus stop and a stranger started showing me some folded paper art his daughter had given him. I told him it was really cool, and that one looked like a hyperbolic parabola, to which he went quiet for a moment, then said, “You don’t look like someone who would know that word”.
I’m still not sure what that means or how to feel but now you have to think about it, too
Good news, fellow artists! Nightshade has finally been released by the UChicago team! If you aren’t aware of what Nightshade is, it’s a tool that helps poison AI datasets so that the model “sees” something different from what an image actually depicts. It’s the same team that released Glaze, which helps protect art against style mimicry (aka those finetuned models that try to rip off a specific artist).
As they show in their paper, even a hundred poisoned concepts make a huge difference.
(Reminder that glazing your art is more important than nighshading it, as they mention in their tweets above, so when you’re uploading your art, try to glaze it at the very least.)
Everyone reblog! Spread the word so more and more artists learn that in addition to Glaze that coats art against ai scraping mimicry there’s also an offensive tool now, able to skew and poison data pools.
Now poisoning will need many artists to nightshade their art and it’s most important to get this ou to those the most at risk of being scraped. Reblog!
i have tourettes where I say sudden funny things but never any slurs because I am good boy 😇 I have OCD but not the one that makes me really concerned about piss and shit but the movie one that makes me line things up properly nice and neat because I am a good boy 😇 I have bipolar but not the one that makes me act embarrassingly in public because I am on the highest point of a downward curving emotional pendulum swing, but the one that makes me creative af via safely utilizing my tendency towards extreme emotions in my art (because I am a good boy 😇) I have autism but it’s the one like from the movies where I’m good at math or being a detective, and not the one that makes other people hate me so bad they want to kill me because I am annoying to them. because I am a good boy 😇 I have schizophrenia too but I also don’t, because somehow in the cultural lexicon no one who has schizophrenia is a good boy and there is rarely a stylistic bullshit depiction of the condition, but I’m still a good boy 😇 society knows this. society knows this.
Prince Rupert’s drops are toughened glass beads created by dripping molten glass into cold water, which causes it to solidify into a tadpole-shaped droplet with a long, thin tail. These droplets are characterized internally by very high residual stresses, which give rise to counter-intuitive properties, such as the ability to withstand a blow from a hammer or a bullet on the bulbous end without breaking, while exhibiting explosive disintegration if the tail end is even slightly damaged.
In nature, similar structures are produced under certain conditions in volcanic lava
fucking bullshit how when a member of the working class isn’t thriving in a system meant to exploit them it’s somehow their fucking fault because one way or another they’ve somehow Done Something Wrong.
“you should have asked for more hours” what if you’re working all you fucking can while still being able to stay awake on the job. which we shouldn’t have to fucking do.
“you shouldn’t have spent too much on things you don’t need” you should be able to spend on one or two nice fucking things without being broke
“you should get store brand instead of name brand” getting the store brand of everything still amounts to hundreds of fucking dollars for a week’s worth of groceries
“you should have listened to the financial advice you got as a teenager” we did. we fucking did.
“you shouldn’t have spent so much in loans” we did so we could get those Good Jobs You Need Degrees For like you fucking told us to
“you should have gotten a better degree” I shouldn’t fucking need one to have a job that I can live off of
“you should have started working sooner so you could have saved up” not every teenager has parents that will fucking let them work and even then you should not have to work on top of school as a fucking child
“you should have listened to this financial coach” I am not fucking poor because I didn’t listen to some grifter trying to sell me a fucking “course” that I can’t afford. I fucking promise you that.
“you should have” “you should” “you shouldn’t have "you shouldn’t” you should maybe fucking consider that this is bullshit. jumping through these hoops is bullshit. trying to do everything you were advised to just to still end up in shitty circumstances is bullshit. trying to prove you’ve made all the choices you were told were the right ones just to try to get people to believe your struggling isn’t your fault is bullshit. still being told it’s your fault because you didn’t do this Secret Financial Life Hack or whatever is bullshit. it’s all bullshit.
reminder that nobody cares about what games you enjoy, play the girly games play the boy games play the kid games. judgement free, im loading up roblox to play with my sister. don’t care that it’s a “kid game” and that it’s considered cringe.
this applies to music too, play ur swift music, play whatever ear shattering abomination. this is a judgement free zone i just listened to an old coldplay song that gives me nostalgia
the only time i’ll judge u for ur game choice is if ur playing that weird darkweb game that just helps host p2p cp
I bet you're actually an ageless immortal of some kind, way older than you claim to be. When were you actually born? The 19th century Romantic era? Medieval era? Ancient Greece?
I am a normal human born in normal human year 19XX
1920!?
Your primitive reliance in Roman numerals
I am denoting variable numbers as to obscure my actual identity, while still reassuring that I am a normal human being born between the years 1900 and 2000
YOU WERE BEING BORN FOR 100 YEARS!!!???
Damn you must have been a big ole baby
I assure you I am normal human or normal human size that was birthed over normal interval of time
