You people are not ready with the amount of bullshit I have for Dr. STONE , especially for that asshole Nanami Ryusui (he is the best character in the show you can't make me think otherwise)
Like, I just remembered I have this account to talk about ANYTHING because I have no bound in this space and like oh my god I can just write anything
Welp. Google's AI horseshit has arrived. And I'm not complying. They can pry my ID out of my cold dead hands. I will simply go elsewhere. Remember folks, DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR IDs. Do not comply. Resist, fight it, use other browsers or sources beyond youtube and google controlled services. Call them. Email them. Make noise. Fight back.
I've been using Google as my main mail service since 2006, and every single account or service I've ever signed up for was made with that address. For a long time I thought it'd be impossible to divorce myself from Google.
It took less than 5 minutes to switch to a ProtonMail account, less than 2 hours to download and/or offload every byte of data from my Google account, and less than 3 days to change every single account or service I've ever signed up for to the new address.
As of today, the only single one I have that's still tied to it is YouTube. It's the only thing I'd lose access to if I deleted my Google acount entirely.
They really, really want you to believe that it's a hassle to switch to a different email system. But it's not. Most websites and/or services allow you to change the email address associated with it.
I've been using Google for almost 2 decades and it only took a few days to move everything. It's not a painful sacrifice; it's an easy change that, frankly, has absolutely been worth it.
You can and should switch to a free, encrypted Proton email account. You also get all of the below perks. For free. There is no trick. It is paid for by the people with paying plans. I am one of them. The (completely functional) free tier is there to entice you into getting a paid account with even more perks. (It worked on me.) But there's no penalty or pressure for staying with the free account.
Also get your stuff off the google drive and put it on Proton's drive. It is encrypted. Only you with your password can access it. Not even Proton can see what you put in there.
When I tell you our team fumbled a dragon design so bad for our course to the point im designing my OWN dragons guys - im still tweaking
anyway dragons FHDJSGHJK
I am doing more for the sake of redeeming myself in my course work, but this is all i got so far - when I get around to doing all the ones i wanted, I'll update this post with a pixiv link so you can see all of them together and at a higher quality HFJKDSGHJK
heres a couple fuckass doodles i did for them too HJFKDSGHJK
I think it's best i probably best i explain design choices here
I play a lot of dragon adventures (kill me) and they have hella interesting dragon designs based on... anything, really. so thats what i've gone for with these
Senku is based on a japanese dragon - only particular reason is those are my favourite types GFJDKSHJK i suppose you could also see it as those dragons being gods of certain things, and the way Senku is basically carrying the kingdom of science bro he may as well be classed as one too /j
Ukyo is ofc a whale, very smooth, very aerodynamic - he cant fly but by god can he swim - Why a whale you ask? dare I point you to biosonar/echolocation GFJHDSGHJK
Gen is based on a kitsune, but as a dragon. innovative, I know. but since kitsune are often trickster spirits, I can see that man choosing to be a dragon to throw people off for the love of the game. also the front paws? constantly like that, initially did it to show how Gen always holds his hands together under his yukata, but it can also look like a fox about to pounce so i'll go with that too GHFJDSGJHK
right thats about it, see ya
Late edit: but btw!!! Feel free to use this for anything! As long as its nothing to do with AI or fully reposting do whatever you want with these :D
MY Bruce would be happy if one of his children stay away from mask community. HE would be supportive for his children to pursue the path outside of vigilante. That's is MY Bruce Wayne.
Don't know about your Bruce tho. Stay safe out there
Also noting that this line has a lot of clothing that works for people who need easy chest access or have limited upper body mobility, like if you are recovering from surgery or doing chemo
I think I should start bragging about my adopted son’s achievements when people around me start bragging about their kids. Ooooh your child can count to 10 in mandarin? Well, my child found 110 landmines! And he’s only 6 years old!
Headcanon: Duke glows when he feels strong emotions and Ace and Jackson are not prepared for that.
It's a crime that they haven't made friends yet. They all need friends with positive energy because their lives are awful.
Besides being the "black" kids in a white family, and the whole fandom only remembering them for that, it's pretty messed up.
Them: I have a personality with virtues and flaws, I have gone through traumas and good times, I have a totally valid vision of life and my external factors are an impact on my history and personality, in addition to being aware of the society in which I live.
Fandom: Hey! The black kids!
Jackson and Ace had a conversation about it, and apparently everyone ignored the huge impact they had on each other 😭😭
Guys I got a really really terrible Dr. Stone prompt.
So Senku is adopted right? And the reason for his adoption is because something terrible happened to his parents leading Byakuya to adopt him. And Senku's biological dad also happens to be Byakuya's best friend.
Senku took the Ishigami surname without caring who his birth parents are because all that matters is that he has Byakuya. He knows he can rely on him because that's the man that took him in after his parents deaths no questions asked.
Byakuya raised him, sheltered him, and cared for him like he's his own. Because he is and there's nothing that will change that, he'll continue to support his boy even if he constantly teases him.
Then the petrification happened, and Senku lost Byakuya. The man who raised and cared for him to be the person who he is now, his dad, gone and had died several thousands of years ago and he wasn't able to say goodbye.
He accepted it, but that doesn't mean it got easy especially without human interaction for 2-or-so years. But as time went on, he'll learn how to heal from grief with the support of the people who cares for him, the people who he also cared back.
After saving the world from petrification, Taiju and Yuzuriha got married. And Senku was happy for them. Everyone was overjoyed when they found out Yuzuriha's pregnant, Taiju wouldn't stop crying.
Senku knew that both Taiju and Yuzuriha would've been great parents. But life has never been fair.
There he was, standing near the cliffside as he watches the ashes of his best friends' flow with the wind across the ocean. Taiju and Yuzuriha's baby looked at him with bright eyes full of innocent wonder, Senku's stomach churned to how much the baby resemble its dad, and how its eyes look just like its mom's.
But right now that doesn't matter. What matters is that their baby is in safe hands in his arms, he promise to look after his best friends' kid until the day he dies and after.
I was surprised at how well Senku understands Monster Hunter.
If he played it, he'd totally be the kind of person who spends forever farming materials.
I sometimes draw crossover illustrations.
Please feel free to block or mute me if that’s not your preference.
There's something about Bruce Wayne dragging himself through his healing journey, kicking and screaming just to show his many beautiful children it's possible
So you can avoid them stealing things from you, the artist/writer, etc.
Pro GenAI websites/Programs:
Facebook
Instagram
X/Twitter (Remember, Grok gives people cancer)
Threads
Pro Writing Aid
Grammarly
Duolingo
Google Docs
Microsoft Word/all Microsoft products Takes from and will feed their machine.
Youtube (taking advantage of people who are hearing impaired. ==;;)
Adobe Products. All of them. If you HAVE to use them (Some businesses require it), save offline because there is a film of at least some privacy protections there, so if you have to sue, you can say it violates US privacy law. Remember, contracts do not circumvent US law.
Corel won't feed the machines, but still uses AI stolen from other artists. Which sucks since Corel Draw is the second best overall for vector programs. (Plus I love Painter, but I bought the offline version to avoid AI). (Canadian company)
Canva Takes and feeds their machine.
Deviant Art Not only supports AI, but put a tool in and said they are going to steal your work if you like it or not for their machine.
Sketchup went Pro-GenAI. The thing is that you can do the same thing in Blender these days with precise measurements.
Autodesk has stated they are Pro-Gen AI here. It is not clear if they will use your models to feed their machine. But be on guard. They make Maya and 3Dmax. You can replace it with Blender.
Neutral ground:
Tumblr (there is a way to opt out [Link] and they don't have an active AI machine.) https://www.tumblr.com/dookins/743519550598987776/heres-how-to-disable-third-parties-like-ai
Etsy allows GenAI, but still has some (minor) restrictions. I'd still be cautious. (Also be cautious of drop shippers). Complaints about too much AI and AI images+patterns made by Ai still exist on the website. They lean slightly more pro-AI, but still won't let it run completely amok, say like Facebook. They won't feed your work into a machine, but also don't ban it through robots.txt.
Bluesky They don't use an AI algorithm except for in the "Discover" section of their website, but while they are anti-GenAI strongly, they don't seem to block the Gen AI bots from entry, so you'd still have to use Nightshade or Glaze (links below). There is no opt-out because they don't need an opt out. (Leaning towards strong position on AI, but I wish they would block GenAI bots).
Searxng- If you super want to screw over Google, in general, and have some tech savvy, you can set up your own search engine through searxng. It's easier on Windows and Linux than it is on a Mac. (Mac you need Docker), but if you're determined on privacy, Searxng adds a layer of privacy. Some of it sometimes uses bits of AI, but most of it doesn't and you can fuss with the settings so it doesn't spit out AI results. At sheer minimum Google will stop spitting out weird videos on Youtube at you because in your private browsing, you searched for the origin of ball bearings while not logged in for a book and Google likes to break privacy laws.
Strong positions against AI:
Scrivener (Creator vowed against AI) Writing program. There is an active forum, and versions for Mac, Linux and PC. It is paid, but at ~60 USD, it's cheaper than most programs. There is usually a holiday sale around Christmas. It has a learning curve, but with an active forum with the programmer of it there to ask obscure questions it's not a dead zone. They often take suggestions and implement them over time. (Especially if you rank the importance, applications, etc) US company.
LibreOffice Open source and free Spreadsheet and Word processor program that can replace Microsoft Word. Some people might have seen older versions where it was called Neo Office (now extinct) and Open Office. LibreOffice is still populated, plus the forums are super helpful if you get stuck. The UX is pretty intuitive if you've used Microsoft Word. Scrivener, BTW, supports exporting to odt (the native file) as well as .doc, and this can open both. The slight thing is that sometimes it doesn't export to .doc smoothly. And I DO wish more magazines, and agent (big clue here) supported .odt files since it is free. Part of the reason .odt isn't as supported is because Microsoft and Adobe have a deal with the devil with each other, so Adobe's Book formatting program InDesign doesn't support ODT. (BTW, if you have a good open source replacement for InDesign that supports ODT, let me know.)
Dabble (as suggested by SF stories, see reblog) is a writing program. Similar to Scrivener. Has vowed against AI and to resist it. 108 dollars a year for Basic. It is almost twice the price of Scrivener who lets you update for fairly cheap. 29 dollars a month, v. 59 dollars for the whole program (Scrivener) for the same features of Premium. You choose.
yWriter is a free Writing program and like Scrivener, and has vowed against AI Last I looked it had some UX issues, but some people swear by it. The learning curve is higher than Scrivener which is saying something.
Ellipsus is an online writing program and vowed against AI. The main feature I like (which Scrivener doesn't have) is the ability to change spellcheck based on region/language. It is a requested feature of Scrivener, but lower priority. So if you have a Brit, you can get the spelling for the character. They are a British-based company.
Cara.app (The creator of the website sued GenAI there is no chance they'll convert) is an artist website. Cara is trying to institute an auto Glaze/Nightshade into the website if given enough funds. People see it as a soft replacement for deviant art. (which went fully AI) If you believe in human art, please donate if you can. Zhang Jingna, the Creator,is Chinese-Singporean. She lives in Singapore.
Clip Studio Paint added AI, but saw the light and decided to protect artists instead because of protest and removed it. There are tutorials and a good forum if you get super stuck. Based in Japan, so the UI and UX is really clean.
Davinci Resolve Pro is a film editing software that's super good. There is a free version and a paid version. The forums are responsive. The programmers aren't always present. There is a healthy group of tutorials. US company. Clean UX. It does take a little bit of time to remember the shortcuts.
Tahoma2D is anti-AI and open source animation program. Takes a little getting used to, but is good for animations and doesn't crash as often as Animate. Programmers are in the forums and some bugs are fixed within hours. The forums are super responsive and helpful.
Krita open source and free, no AI. I'd rank it secondary to Clip Studio Paint (which is paid) I haven't tried the forums, but it's pretty intuitive and can stand for a lower level replacement for Painter, and do a lot of the basics of Photoshop. It's usually ranked higher than the equally open source Gimp.
Writer P AKA Writer+ (app for when you're on the go) is a simple word processor app for your phone that doesn't use AI. The original programmer stopped updating, so Writer+ person took over and isn't out to make a profit since it's free in the spirit of the original app. It has subfolders you can use. Since it was programmed before GenAI it doesn't have AI. Intuitive, easy to use. Fairly easy to upload the files through three dots->share. The files can save to your card or phone with some settings fussing. Simple word processor.
Inkscape is a free vector program and no AI. It is harder to use than illustrator and has less features. But if you're doing smaller vectors for one-offs with less complexity, it'll do you after some learning curve. Best of the lot. I hate Affinity Designer which is the same thing, only paid. (Neither Affinity program was worth the money paid)
Affinity (Designer, etc) swore to be AI-free and does Vector and Photos. The UX is messy, I dislike the program and regret paying for it. Inkscape and Krita are better UX and do the same thing. The forums aren't as friendly since there has been an onslaught of people seeing it's supposed to be a replacement for Photoshop and Illustrator, but the programmers aren't present. The people on the forums are often on edge about this assertion. And the capabilities of the program don't outshine basically Krita or Inkscape capabilities (both free). What is usually intuitive is not. UK company. If you're going to pay for a program, go for Clip Studio Paint which rivals Corel Painter.
Blender is a 3D art program and does not use GenAI. It can do 2D animation, but Tahoma is easier to use in this regard. It's open source and free. Plus there are plenty of tutorials. The forums can be touch and go sometimes, but there are plenty of sub Blender communities that might be responsive. It can also do animation.
Handmade vowed against AI and promised to never sell itself for stock prices to prevent AI (as a replacement for Etsy.)
Discover a world of creativity and craftsmanship through Handmade, an innovative platform connecting passionate artisans with discerning buy
Proton (to replace Google Suite) as suggested by SF Stories (see reblog) Vowed against AI. They are missing a spreadsheet, but have online and offline capabilities, plus a built-in VPN.
But you need a pro website...
Look up robots.txt and AI bots: https://www.cyberciti.biz/web-developer/block-openai-bard-bing-ai-crawler-bots-using-robots-txt-file/
Use cloudflare:
Use Nightshade:

which will poison the algorithm
Use Glaze:
Take Away:
The thing is you think you doing it alone will do nothing, but the more AI feeds on itself, AI images, the worse they become, and the less detailed so, denying it the images, adding poison or not being able to read the human text is eventually going to lead to an AI collapse.
Analysis shows that indiscriminately training generative artificial intelligence on real and generated content, usually done by scrapi
And why not help that along?
I don't want to give cancer to poor people [Link] or make the planet burn faster [Link]. So GenAI collapse is everything I dream of. GenAI apocalypse is not.
You think this is an exaggeration, but didn't they actually make a whole series of ads showing that you can use AI to write "heartfelt" messages and order "thoughtful" gifts for your family when you can't be bothered to do it yourself? So you can go through the motions of appearing to care while being completely disengaged from your loved ones?
