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.)

in light of israel's looming invasion on rafah, south africa implored the icj to call for the protection of palestinians with new preliminary orders. the icj denied this request, insisting that its january orders would be sufficient enough in ensuring the safety of people residing in rafah.

we have all seen how israel responded to the icj verdict earlier this month. they have all but intensified their attacks on palestinians, their favorite of whom seem to be children. this will end in a bloodbath. palestinians, already malnourished and living in literal tents, will be bombarded, they will be shot, they will be slaughtered. and when i say palestinians, a lot of them are actual toddlers. the videos coming out of this are proof enough.

at this point, it has been made amply clear that palestinians will never experience safety in their own homeland. a lot of the families in gaza are trying to raise funds to get out of it, because there's nowhere left to go.

there is nowhere left to go. if these people don't get the funds necessary to escape, they will die.

it's vital that you go to operation olive branch's spreadsheet, choose a family that resonates with you, and donate as much as you can to their gofundme. every last dollar counts. one dollar could be the difference between life and death for a family. please don't fall victim to the bystander effect. your contribution counts, however little it may be. and whether you're able to donate or not, spread this to as many people as you can. each second we stay silent is a second an entire family is brutally massacred.

Raindove is still fundraising to get as many people out of Rafah as quickly as possible while the tanks are encroaching on Rafah. The terrorist zionist forces are going to try to do as much damage as possible. They're about 3k away from their initial goal. They don't have much more time. They've already done so much to help Ghazzawiyeh, they can do more with your help.

You look down at your hands. The rod you once held is now part of them, part of you. You can't let go of it. On the surface, the bobbers look up at you. Are they on the surface? Where does the water start and air end? Where does the sea end and your body start? You don't know. You're not done fishing.

Feeling normal about the normal things being said in Tangos and Impulses videos

To clarify, this interaction didn't happen, Impulse and Tango both just made innuendos about boobs in their videos

Some Anti-AI banners i made, anyone is free to use them, no credit necessary. Light mode and Dark mode versions.

Art and writing and people’s rights need to be protected, and AI has been used already to steal, plagiarize, and be used to threaten people using deepfakes.

As an artist and a writer, it’s an insult to my craft to see AI “works” along side mine.

Like i said, anyone is welcome to save/put these banners on their blog, or on posts, please just reblog this if you do.

Hey. You want to see the esmp s3 version of Scott Smajor I hallucinated in my sleep

I don't know what happened but I dreamt that esmp s3 was announced and Scott looked like this, also his entire Thing was that he lived in a part of the world that was constantly night time and all the colours were fucked up as if void/space texture had been applied to everything, and he would look all cute and innocent and lure people places and when they went there he would stab them and run away giggling and dematerialise similarly to how endermen teleport, leaving behind star particles and a bleeding and confused victim

He also really liked flowers. I don't know.

#mcyt #my art <3 #empiresblr #empires smp #empires fanart #empires s3 speculation #scott smajor #dangthatsalongname #empires scott #i have to stress again that this isnt based on any announcement or teaser i just saw this in a dream and drew it #i cant remember anything else from the dream it was just that

What is your Hogwarts house?

Actually I've already processed all five stages of grief in regards to a beloved author from my childhood very publicly making the jump from "milquetoast liberal with unexamined biases" to "actively dangerous bigot who will double down into perpetuity" and will no longer be basing any part of my identity on her intellectual property! Thanks for asking!

Last of my designs for the double lifers, Scott!!!

I think I only have two more designs and I’ve done all the lifers from all the series!! But this is where I’ll stop for tonight!! ✨

As per the tags on your last ask, what'd Scott do?

If it's enough for you then it's enough for me - obv u don't have to but if you'd like to. Just don't wanna be liking the wrong blorbos iykwim

-s

That last sentence is kinda weird to me. There are questionable things he's done that I think could sour some people's opinions if they were already iffy about him, but please don't use me as an arbiter of who you should and shouldn't like, especially without looking things up yourself. My reasons are very much 90% personal taste. If there was something awful and big enough objectively that people *should* drop him you probably would have heard about it and I def wouldn't be hiding it in the tags of a random ask on my art blog.

I just don't like him. He rubs me the wrong way and the moments I enjoy watching him are far between. I don't enjoy his personality, I don't tend to like his bits, and some of his jokes make me uncomfortable. I don't like his interaction with the people I do like, like Jimmy and Pearl, and I generally find myself muttering "go away" when he is around. That's it.

There have been some incidents, of vastly different levels of validity, but the root of them all is he is uncomfortably entrenched in fandom and also terrible at responding to incidents and drama. He fumbles his way through them and either makes a scene or causes harm to others. Recently there was an incident, and I cannot find it right now so take this with a heaping bag of salt because you should never trust sourceless information, of an artist he worked with who got in hot water because he followed their r18 account and then responded poorly to the hate mob that followed while trying to save his own skin, while already tied up in other controversies.

I'm the kinda person who easily and quickly drops media or products if I get bad vibes so that was enough for me, regardless if it's true because I just can't enjoy someone after controversies. But that also happened recently and I've always not really been fond of him, I just wasn't honest because I felt like it was better to try and like something. I just ended up disliking him more because of it though, I think. So I've stopped and just decided to interact with him as little as possible.

#this is the last post i reblog about this drama #i need to stop bc it just fucks up my mental health #but i thought it would be important that people know this

They seem to be coping well
