When you point out to people who are against animal testing that there are potentially lifesaving medications that need to be tested on mammals before going to trials that could potentially harm human lives, they’ll say shit like “We should test on prisoners instead.” Bitch. Why are you working for PETA? The WW2-era Imperial Japanese Army needs you. There is suchhhhhhh a strong thread of fascism laced through the current animal rights movement and in so many animal rights spaces and they’re extremely transparent about it.

I can excuse racism, but I draw the line at animal cruelty

That scene from Community is so accurate, that is exactly how these people sound. Racism, ableism and classism often tangled with their crusade for ‘animal rights’ and their talking points often go against basic ethics and basic animal husbandry.

Not to be former Catholic-blogging on main but Chicago Pope can WRITE, y'all

Breaking the chains of new forms of slavery 173. This distorted view of the human person is reflected today in various forms of servitude directly linked to the digital economy. Nothing in the world of AI is immaterial or magical. Every seemingly immediate and flawless response is the result of a long chain of mediation, involving vast networks of natural resources, energy infrastructure and, above all, people. A significant part of the digital economy’s functioning relies on the silent work of millions of people engaged in essential yet largely unseen activities, such as data labeling, model training and content moderation, often involving disturbing material. In many cases, these workers are young people, predominantly women, working under demanding conditions for minimal wages. Added to this invisible labor is the even harsher work of extracting the resources required for the production of the devices and microprocessors on which AI depends. In some regions of the world, children and adolescents work in dangerous conditions, crushing the materials from which rare earth elements are extracted. The bodies of these people are scarred, injured and worn down so that computational flow may continue uninterruptedly. Furthermore, criminal networks use online platforms, messaging systems, anonymous payment methods and profiling techniques in order to recruit, control and transport victims of trafficking — very often minors — reducing men and women to “data” to be tracked and “packages” to be moved around within the same digital circuits that support much of the global economy. This reality deeply challenges the moral conscience of our time. It is not enough to invoke efficiency, nor to celebrate the benefits of innovation, if they are built on a chain of exploitation that remains deliberately hidden. If technology promises emancipation, yet produces new forms of global subordination, it stands in contradiction to the fundamental principle of human dignity.

Keeping Tumblr Safe in a Changing Online World

Tumblr has evolved a lot over the years, but some things never change. It remains a home for fandom, culture, and self-expression, where originality is celebrated and creativity doesn’t follow a formula. And we’ve maintained our commitment to user safety and being a responsible actor in any place our users may be. Sometimes that means updating our practices to keep up with the changing internet.  

Starting today, to comply with local laws, some users in Australia will need to verify their age to keep using their account (including all new users). If we need you to verify your age, you'll be prompted to provide additional information to help us confirm you meet the age requirement. If you’re not meeting the criteria yet, don’t worry, Tumblr will still be there for you, and we can’t wait to have you join us on the platform. 

We are working with a reputable partner to provide you with multiple verification methods. You may already be familiar with some of these methods: ConnectID, Photo ID, AgeKey, or using a selfie. You can read more here.

IMPORTANT: We value your privacy. The information you provide is processed for verification purposes only. No sensitive media will be retained by anyone, and only the final verification result will be stored and linked to your account. Tumblr won’t even have access to the information you submit, as we receive only the final age-verification result. Questions? Contact Tumblr support or learn more about these changes here.

I think you are the first artist I've come across that actually draws Erzi in clothes I would wear myself.

this is not to shade on other artists! but c'mon, we can give our girl multiple other outfits that doesn't contain either 1.green uniform, or 2. green dress (seems like a large portion of the fandom is stuck just between these two outfits🫠)

it's fresh to see something new thank you! especially in a modern setting🙏🏻🩷

Also just to point out, I really like that you put her in pretty dresses in historical settings!

now here is a question for you; what do we think about Hungary in a dress on the battlefield?👀

Hi! I'm glad you like the attires I've drawn her in! I can understand using the most prominent designs she has in the anime/manga for fanart (though the black/orange dress is often forgotten) but I like varying, and she seems like someone who puts time into her appearance. *cough cough decorating her cage))

I do think she dresses mostly in masculine clothing/standard uniform on the battlefield (x, x), wa r is a very gendered thing and other than being more practical it is a chance to put her knight persona back on, taste a little bit of her boyhood again. (She also dresses up as sword wielding prince at one point which could mean nothing)

I do think she wore traditional clothing at the beginning of the 1848 revolution, when they were trying to gather up forces in their army (they basically had no resources - so other than the propagandist fight-for-your-prettygirl-nation thing, it is also a visual representation of them being a little ill-fitted for a fight) before switching to uniforms during bigger battles. So here!

(ref for the dress here)
