We all agree, right?

AI to write your novel is wrong

A bargain with a demon to write your novel is okay

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Only if you specify in the contract that the demon can't use chat-GPT

[athenadark]

I've been thinking about this - and why asking the demon is also a bad idea

Tartini was a composer and violin teacher and no one respected him, he was generally broke, and he started having weird dreams in which the devil asked him to teach him violin

despite being catholic tartini agreed - although everything told him this was a bad idea

so he taught the devil violin in his dreams and when he had taught him everything he knew the devil offered him payment, he played an original composition in his dream

Tartini woke up weeping and struggled to write it down

we have a historical version of "couldn't remember the greatest song in the world, this is just its tribute", and the song he wrote down made him "Sonata in G Minor, aka the devil's trill" it's usually played by 2 violinists because it's evil difficult,

now imagine you make a deal with the devil to write your novel, he writes it but only lets you read it in a dream and you have to transcribe it from memory the next day.... 150k of the best prose and plot you've ever seen in your life and you have to remember it

chatgpt is evil, but that's just mean

Krita shortcuts I use (will continuously update bc even now after using it for more than 3 years, I find new things).

Learned/intuitive

b: brush

e: eraser

f: fill

g: gradient

m: mirror view

R + click: switch to layer

ctrl + T: transform

ctrl + shift + R: paste as reference image

ctrl + shift + A: deselect

ctrl + shift + z: redo

If you don't want to get overwhelmed by shortcuts I suggest you stop reading here. I learned most of these by trial and error anyway and whatever sticks stuck.

I forget it exists:

/: switch to previous brush

shift + drag: resize brush

t: move

ctrl + space: drag to zoom

shift + space: drag to rotate

5: reset rotation

ctrl + u: adjust HSV

You can see all the shortcuts through the config, but like. There's a lot and I just kind of forget. Some I just found out about from that which might be helpful:

p: eyedropper

hold h: color history picker

hold u : canvas palette picker

ctrl + shift + g: clipping group

ctrl + g: group

ctrl + alt + g: ungroup

ctrl + shift + I: invert selection

x: swap foreground & background colors

Changes I just made:

removed: d = replace foreground & bg colors to BnW

replaced: ctrl + V = paste at cursor (instead of normal paste)

removed: ctrl + h = toggle selection indicator (prevent accidental trigger)

removed: ctrl + click = eyedropper

#Make Racists Scared Again 2026

[creatingblackcharacters]

Share if you want people to know they should be scared to be racist around you 👊🏾

[creatingblackcharacters]

"making them afraid will make them more racist" that's wild to me, because we live in a whole culture of social consequences for antiracism anyway. It is literally safer to be a racist than it is to speak up against it, socially.

Idk about you, but "I'm afraid no one will want to be my friend if I'm a white supremacist" seems like a pretty logical thought process to have, and I wish THAT were the normal and not "I'm afraid my friends will hate me if I tell them they made racist jokes".
