fewer posts about “why do straight women date men who hate them” and more posts about “why do so many men hate women that it’s genuinely difficult for straight women to find romantic & sexual intimacy with a man who doesn’t hate them”

So a free tool called GLAZE has been developed that allows artists to cloak their artwork so it can't be mimicked by AI art tools.
AI art bros are big mad about it.

I'm not interested in detailed arguments about why machine-generated "art" is okay anymore. We've already seen that people's art has been taken and used in order to cut the living, working artists out of the process of making art in their specific style without paying them, and none of the pro-Tech Bro Tracing Machine art arguments address the fact that this shit is specifically intended to cut actual artists (and actual actors, writers, etc.) out of the process while taking styles they created.
It isn't just about whether a machine has a "right" to "scan" - as if "looking" is all the computer is doing - it's about the fact that the billionaires behind this have literally said "we don't think we should have to pay for your art, it would cost us too much to do that." They absolutely intend to use this to not have to pay artists and actors and writers and and ... and to be able to use our work and our faces and our words in ways we would never have consented to.
Bitching about how copyright is fucked and heavily slanted in the favor of corporations and then being "pro-AI" is some of the most ridiculous mental contortionist shit I've ever heard. "Copyright as it exists is slanted in favor of corporations, so let's make the art world even MORE unbalanced in favor of the few billionaires behind this bullshit!"
Like, do you hear yourself?
This shit is the Uber and AirBnB of the art world - same tactic, same intentions - and any "actual artist" supporting it is, as far as I give a fuck, a fucking quisling. :)
The only thing that might actually save actual living and working artists in this mess is the fact that computer-vomited "art" and "writing" can't be copyrighted.

Low Energy/Effort Witchcraft
Are you perpetually busy? Never have any spoons? This might be the post for you. Note that not everything here may be considered low energy or low effort to everyone, and that's okay :)
Carry a crystal around based on what you need. I have a black tourmaline bracelet that absorbs negative vibes throughout the day. I stick it on a selenite slab when I get home to cleanse overnight, then rinse and repeat in the morning.
Put a bay leaf in your wallet to attract money. If you have time, draw a sigil or a $/£/€ on it.
Dedicate anything you drink to your deities if you have any. I dedicate water and black tea to everyone and my favourite raspberry tea to Hathor. Coffee is for Caim.
Enchant your pill case so you remember to take them on time. Enchant your pills to work efficiently. ("Anxiety begone. Ye be banished" on all of my anxiety pills ✌️)
Draw a sigil on your body wash bottle to remove bad vibes or carve a sigil in a bar of soap.
Enchant your moisturizer to repel the evil eye. I fucking love this one.
Incorporate colour magic into the socks you wear (Goths who wear hot pink socks, I'm looking at you).
Enchant your charger so it doesn't break and so you don't lose it. Enchant your phone too while you're at it.
Sorry, I love enchantments--
Uhhhhh
Match those big ol jar candles to different intentions. Burn a cedar candle to cleanse/banish. Burn a cinnamon candle to draw in prosperity. Burn a citrus candle to uplift mood. This one is fantastic for broom closet witches.
Got a humidifier? Fill it up with moon water. You're welcome ;D
Politely ask the spirits of your plants to ward your space. Feed two birds with one scone this way.
Witchy social media. Scrolling on Tumblr and learning something new about witchcraft counts as witchcraft imo. Saving tarot spreads from Instagram for later counts too. Making Pinterest boards for literally anything also counts.
Keep a digital grimoire if doing it on paper costs too many spoons. I have used Google docs & drive in the past but I currently use Notion (You can copy and paste this way!)
If you still want a physical grimoire, print your stuff out and stick it in a binder or glue it in your journal. Boom. Physical grimoire
Listen to witchcraft related videos in the background while you do other tasks or chores in your home
Preparing a meal? Toss in spices that correspond with good health and drawing in positivity, or any other intention you have
Enchant your glasses to help you focus and "read between the lines" or see what wants to remain hidden (this one is a lifesaver at my job)

New anti-AI tool from the team developing Glaze that looks to poison prompts and ruin data sets entirely.
Tumblr media
The tool can go so far as to trick AI into generating things it didn't ask for. 50 "poisoned" images of dogs into a data set yield typical errors companies have been working to get rid of: weird proportions, extra limbs, etc. When they added 300 samples, it was drastic enough to make a data set that was trained to generate "dogs" into "cats" making the tool basically useless.
It's not out yet, but they're adding it to Glaze and they intend on making it open source.
Welcome to the age of the AI arms race.

the death toll in Gaza has reached over 4,000, and half of Gaza's population is under eighteen. Gaza is under siege and only a small amount of supplies are getting through. the number of the dead is dwarfed by the number of the injured, many of whom are without painkillers or food. Gaza's kids are dying hungry and thirsty. Gaza's kids are dying without painkillers or anesthesia. they're dying terrified, trapped in the rubble of buildings, knowing that their families have already died or knowing that their families might be next. the usa was the ONLY country in the un to vote against and veto a HUMANITARIAN CEASEFIRE. PLEASE call your senators and representatives and ask them to PUBLICLY CALL FOR A CEASEFIRE. it takes five minutes and it won't harm you in any way!

gaza has just been completely cut off from the world.
after increased intensity of israeli aistrikes tonight, the last cable providing communications was destroyed. telecommunications have been completely cut off. they cannot reach one another. they cannot reach paramedics. the red crescent society has completely lost contact with their branch in gaza. nobody inside can reach anyone inside, and especially not outside of gaza to tell us what is going on. this is a complete atrocity.

How to Tell Someone’s Physical Appearance with Tarot Cards
It is the simplest thing. You only have to look at your cards and describe what you see.
Tumblr media
The Empress
Male or female, this person has soft, long, flowy hair. It could be naturally wavy, or straight but styled with waves. Color is medium to light. Anything from dark blonde to medium brown or light auburn. Facial structure is soft. Heart-shaped to triangular, but the jawline is more gentle than angular. Tall and fit, but not to the point of having an athletic build. Looks like a Libra.
Ten of Wands
This person stands at below the average height. Around 5'7" for men and 5'1" for women. He or she is on the bulky side, but muscular instead of fat. Hair is light to dark blonde. Best features are the arms, but the legs are a close second. This person has a practical fashion sense. The fabrics they wear will be high-quality, but the clothes themselves will not be too showy. Like a Taurus.
Ace of Swords
With the crown and the leaves adorning the sword, this person likes to wear accessories. Earrings, necklaces, bracelets. Like the sword, he or she has good posture, always standing or sitting straight. One can tell from the hand that this person is strong and muscular. The length of the sword speaks of average height. For a man, around 5'8" to 5'10". For a woman, around 5'3 to 5'5".
Try it with your own deck. 🌹
