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.)

One of the ballsiest things Tolkien ever did was write 473k words about some hobbits called frodo, sam, merry, and pippin and then write in the appendices that their names are actually maura, ban, kali, and razal.

fyi things like insulin, hearing aids, wheelchairs, glasses costing money at all is a form of structural ableism

#totally agree with the fact food should be free but also the metaphor doesn't work in the slightest #95% of people can make their own insulin or sufficient amounts of it with no help #meanwhile the lucky few of us who can't have to pay hundreds of dollars for it #there isn't anyone out there who just doesn't need to eat to live so it's stupid to pretend insulin can be compared to food #like the dumbasses that say that realize we need to pay for food too right #if the majority of people didn't need food to live then charging for food would become an issue of ableism too. it's not hard

wanted to recreate that ancient "put a / for the year you were born" poll, so. . .

also please for the love of hell don't put your age in the tags, i want this to be as anonymous as humanly possible

also please please please reblog the original post, at least for comparison and context!

#hm #this scares me a little i think #i guess if you combine all the others they are still the majority?

okay actually i'm curious about this because i know the el gee bee tee queues ays love their angels and demons and i have a theory why some people might prefer a specific option but i wanna test it first. anyways,

lmk why you picked a specific answer and identity in the tags and rb so i can consume more data like the little autistic freak i am or whatever. or dont, up to you. you know the drill.

feel free to include what kind of angel or demon if this is something you also think way too much about

#demon #i think i should be allowed to get horns and fangs and maybe some sick bat wings as gender affirming care #i want to be foreboding-sexy but i know i never will be lol

Sometimes i feel like younger queer kids are getting a bit to bold with openly talking to people they don’t know In The Context Of:

More than once i have had a younger/same age queer person come up to me in public settings and say something about “finding other gays” or clearly clocking me as nonbinary and I’m like :)))))))) hey buddy I’m here with my conservative parents can you fucking not out me :))))))))

Just say you like my outfit or hair and move on, fuck even tell me you like my shoelaces. Don’t call me gay and limp your wrist at me when you don’t even know me? Especially when there’s a bunch of ppl around?

I am really enjoying reading about the University of Wisconsin chancellor fired after the university discovered all the pornos he and his wife were making.

Generally when someone has a public sex scandal (or “scandal”) you get the standard “I am sorry. I regret it. It was a misjudgment on my part” but this guy is like “fuck you I didn’t do anything wrong. I didn’t violate conflict of interest clauses, you are violating my first amendment rights”

having ideas and plots that you want to write but can't figure out how to get them down onto paper feels like one of those magic tricks where there's an egg in a bottle but you don't actually know the trick to getting it out. shake that bitch around in there and try to whack it out but you just can't squeeze it out of your brain

#please i want to write my story so bad. but i am Afflicted with the Curse #it's all in there i swear but the adhd means it gets all garbled trying to dind its way out of my brain. lost in the labyrinth coming out #like an ice cube puzzle in a video game. it's all there to start and i push it outta my head and it just keeps melting more and more #i have so many ways to describe the frustrating feeling and no ways to fix it #i know the solution is just write and don't worry about it being good but i need to be able to find any of the words i am looking for first #grr

*this isn't written in any specific order, it was just written in the order they occured to me

#a pretty popular disney voice actor was my vocal coach for theatre bc my hometown was hers too #not gonna say who because i do not want people looking up where she's from and figuring out where i am from too #plus people get annoying when i tell them haha they always either ask me to sing or don't believe me lmao #but like. she was my vocal coach before i realized who she'd voiced and i was never like. super duper close or personal with her anyways #so the celebrity thing feels weird lol
