Mustard, the Color of Millennial Candidates, Problematic Lattes, and Aboriginal Paintings

Russet, the Color of Peasants, Fox Fur, and Penance

[feytouched]

But Wait, There’s More! as i found out after making the initial post, there are a few other colours katy kelleher also covered in other outlets: payne’s gray, haint blue, rose madder, falu red, glaucous, fuchsia, caput mortuum, prussian blue, gamboge, celadon, and puce.

also shoutout to her other series, the ugly history of beautiful things, which talks about: lockets, angora, perfume, pearls, mirrors, and orchids.

Palestinian diplomat Husam Zomlot explained in his interview with The Independent:

“Israel is always in search of an enemy because they don’t want to deal with the biggest elephant in the room, which is the Palestinian people. We have warned the world for years: if this can happen in Gaza, it will be done elsewhere. And here you go. We have said so many times: what happens in Palestine does not stay in Palestine. Whatever happens in Palestine spreads to the rest of the world."

[closet-keys]

92% of residential buildings in Gaza have been damaged. Most people (1.7 million) are living in displacement sites where living conditions are dire due to overcrowding and inadequate access to basic necessities like drinking water, soap, lighting, safe cooking fuel and shelter materials.

Over 170,000 Palestinians have been seriously injured, with 18,500 requiring urgent medical evacuation, but they are being blocked by Israel's crossing closures. 120,000 children will need treatment for acute malnutrition this year. 58,000 children have lost one or both parents.

Over 9,500 Palestinians are incarcerated by Israelis, subject to brutal torture. A new law enables the systematic execution of potentially hundreds by hanging.

This is what is happening in Palestine. The future is shaped by what we do next. We must support the survival and self-determination of Palestinians.

My friend Mahrah @mahrahpalestine lives in Gaza with her elderly parents. They rely on donations for all of their basic necessities. This campaign is their sole source of income to buy food.

My wife @cannilyuncanny hosts her family's campaign and sends the donations directly to Mahrah. The campaign is vetted by @90-ghost and was shared by fairuzfan.

Any money you can spare will be the entirety of their grocery budget for the week. Please send them enough to survive.

everything surrounding the id laws that just passed in Kansas is fucking horrible

[briannyssey]

[terramythos]

Hey Bri I hope you don't mind me sharing this on your post but in case anyone reading this is in Kansas or knows trans people in Kansas, Colorado is nearby and considered one of the safest states for trans & queer people. I know relocating is logistically expensive and challenging for many reasons, especially for people in a vulnerable situation, but if it is an option anyone is considering, there is a nonprofit here that may be able to help.

Steps These steps are intended to be a linear process to get you out of there and resettled here. But we get it, you’re a big kid and can do

Firefox 148 rolls out with the promised AI kill switch: here's how to enable it

The "Block AI Enhancements" toggle was originally introduced in Firefox 148 Nightly in January following significant community backlash afte

The Firefox "AI kill switch" is here.

Go to Settings > AI controls. There, you can toggle the "master kill switch" on to fully block all the features, which means two things:

you won't see them,

you can't even be asked about them.

The default state is, like before, "available". This means the features are NOT on by default (they never were), but Firefox will let you know about them where they exist (e.g. when you create your first tab group) so that you can choose to opt in.

Please note that Firefox for Android or iOS have never included AI features, so you won't see these settings on your smartphones or tablets.

Please also note that, unlike popular belief here on Tumblr, besides "chatbot in sidebar" (which is simply embedding the same page you'd have normally browsed to), none of these features have ever interacted with anything outside your PC, because they download a small model to your computer, to do everything locally. These small models have never been and are not downloaded until you explicitly agree to turn on one of the features.

yall know human trafficking isnt just sex trafficking right? right????

[moniquill]

The MAJORITY of human trafficking is for labor; factory work, garment/textile work, agricultural work, construction, and domestic work/cleaning.

And that's without counting -legal- human trafficking: Prison labor.

gif sharpening actions v3 by @daenerys-stormborn

just wanted to share an update on my past gif actions since i no longer use that anymore. there a bunch of actions out there but if anyone is curious on my process <3

action includes:

load files fast: open with image sequence with frame rate delay of 25 (you'll need to configure this to your own folder)

6 sharpening actions

brighten: duplicates smart object sets the mode to "screen" i use these for dark scenes

frame delay: convert layers in video timeline to frame layers in frame animation and sets frame delay to 0.04

convert to video timeline: layers in frame animation are put into a smart object in video timeline

text: sets a drop shadow and stroke setting to text

download here // crop presets // psd

+small tutorial w/ video under

Load Files Fast action opens up a folder where you put your own screencaps in and loads the caps in PS and makes it into a smart object. You will need to configure this yourself since it uses my own folder. Click on Load Files Fast, select "Record" button and then choose File > Open, navigate to the folder that you use to store your screencaps, select the first cap, click on the "Image Sequence" option on the bottom right of the dialog box and then click "Open". It will then ask you to specify the frame rate, I use 25, then click OK. Then you click on the "Stop" button and your action is saved. [video on how here]

After it is put into a Smart Object, I use one of my crop presets I've made. To load them into Photoshop, click on the down arrow next to the crop bottom, click Load Tool Preset and select my preset.

Then I choose a sharpening I want to use. I'm either use 'high pass' or the 'sharper w/o grain' one.

OPTIONAL - Brighten action, brightens the scene using 'Screen' mode. I use these for really dark scenes.

After that I color the gif and add text if needed.

If I want to change the frame delay, I use the 'frame delay' action and set my delay to 0.04 and then save the gif!

If you do decided to use the frame delay action, you won't be able to change the coloring and text once its in frame animation. So you can decide to do your coloring/text after you use this action so you don't have to go back and forth if you decide you want to change your coloring or text.
