Hurting small creators is the whole point

As tumblr staff scrambles to undo their change to reblogs I would like to remind everyone who needs to hear it that "we are going to discuss this before moving forward" is corporate speak for "we are going to quietly try to roll this out again in a few weeks under a different name."

The goal of all big tech is to ultimately create an ecosystem of uncompensated labor that they can turn into profit — whether that's through AI, outsourcing labor to places where they can get away with paying people pennies a day, or appropriating your content for site traffic and then obfuscating the metrics from you so that you can't advocate for yourself.

Maybe I'm wrong! It would be cool if I was wrong. But I've seen this same shit play out too many times to have much optimism.

This isn't to be cynical, it's good that we got them to roll it back, even if only temporarily. But I would like to encourage whoever is reading this to be vigilant about what comes next, and to be prepared to bring the same level of outrage when they inevitably try to do something like this again.

Oh, hello

Going to try and start posting on this again, even if its just little sketches or half-finished ideas or whatever.

I have been gone for a while, due in part to certain life events and in part to general spiritual weariness. I am also working on some things behind the scenes, though it may be some time before I'm able to talk about that. But I think it will be pretty cool.

I almost never talk much about personal stuff on socials, but I am trying to Relax a little.

Thank you to everyone who kept liking/sharing my stuff even while I was inactive for so long, it really does mean a lot to me. Hope 2 be posting more soon.
