Bamboo Studios is a small, queer owned business that’s still growing and expanding. We specialize in original and fandom related merchandise
I've finally made myself a carrd if you want to follow me on other socials. Plus a Tiktok that I will soon be setting up for previews of my merch!
Bowling Green Pride!
I'll be at Bowling Green Pride this year, at Wooster Green in Bowling Green OH, sharing a table for Bamboo Studios with Gustybv!
I'll be selling my prints and some pendulums there, but make sure to check out Gusty's items, too!
This blog has been quiet for a hot minute but I promise I'm still here and still queer! I mostly post my art over on bluesky these days but I should really get around to posting it more here again.
Black Friday Sale starting at Midnight EST!
Be sure to check out my wares on my Big Cartel shop! I have stickers, art prints, art dolls, keychains and more!

I've been in a nostalgic mood, doodled characters from my old toontown stories that I've been working on and or are hoping to still work on someday.

People used to comment on web comics.

I hate "content" culture.
I hate "consuming content" and scrolling immediately to the next thing.
People used to be excited about the art that other people created.
People used to want to share that excitement with creators.
I hate this future.
Once someone tagged art that I made with "woah" and I think about it at least once a week. Someone else said "oh neat" once. Someone else WROTE A WHOLE DAMN POEM IN THE COMMENTS. Anyways even just one word can change how someone sees their art. You don't even have to think about it too hard. You could put a keyboard smash and I'd probably cry from joy.
I'm also trying hard to interact more, I understand that it's hard to break away from opening your phone and being in Content Consumption Mode.
I recently bought a set of ohuhu markers and ponies have been my inspiration. Thinking of making these into prints and stickers. Will probably make more ponies too!
New Stickers! Featuring the Bishops of the Old Faith.
Did some mini paintings of the crowns from COTL. They'll probably become magnets!
A new tool lets artists add invisible changes to the pixels in their art before they upload it online so that if it’s scraped into an AI training set, it can cause the resulting model to break in chaotic and unpredictable ways.Â
The tool, called Nightshade, is intended as a way to fight back against AI companies that use artists’ work to train their models without the creator’s permission. Using it to “poison” this training data could damage future iterations of image-generating AI models, such as DALL-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion, by rendering some of their outputs useless—dogs become cats, cars become cows, and so forth. MIT Technology Review got an exclusive preview of the research, which has been submitted for peer review at computer security conference Usenix.  Â
AI companies such as OpenAI, Meta, Google, and Stability AI are facing a slew of lawsuits from artists who claim that their copyrighted material and personal information was scraped without consent or compensation. Ben Zhao, a professor at the University of Chicago, who led the team that created Nightshade, says the hope is that it will help tip the power balance back from AI companies towards artists, by creating a powerful deterrent against disrespecting artists’ copyright and intellectual property. Meta, Google, Stability AI, and OpenAI did not respond to MIT Technology Review’s request for comment on how they might respond.Â
Zhao’s team also developed Glaze, a tool that allows artists to “mask” their own personal style to prevent it from being scraped by AI companies. It works in a similar way to Nightshade: by changing the pixels of images in subtle ways that are invisible to the human eye but manipulate machine-learning models to interpret the image as something different from what it actually shows.Â
