Intellectual property laws used to mean something when it targeted the consumer.

Now the venture capitalist steals the IP to make derivative AI bullshit.

Tumblr sexyman tournament is coming, and an obscure character very dear to me is in it. Unfortunately, he will face a powerhouse in the first match... but I will not give up!

And that is why I did this presentation for you, Howl fans. Let's make an alliance against an evil triangle out there.

@sexy-people-contests-2026 some piece of propaganda.

[anniespositivity]

One thing I've realised: I don't have to achieve something extraordinary in order to deserve my place in this life. I'm allowed to live quietly. I'm allowed to enjoy small hobbies and simple things. I'm allowed to work a job that simply pays the bills. I'm allowed to exist without constantly chasing something bigger. I don't have to compare myself and hold myself to an unreasonable standard all the time. Sometimes I can simply be. And still have worth. And still have every right to be here.

Hey did you draw that evil feminist caricature to warn men how their wives would act once they got the right to vote? Illustrator: sure did boss. real sexy, just like you asked.

[ode-on-a-grecian-butt]

Speaking of women getting the right to vote and losers still being angry about that in the year of our lord 2026.

The Men Who Want Women to Be Quiet

A virulent form of misogyny has become the single most important force holding together the American right.

things I won’t let ai take away from human writers

em dash

“not x, not y, but z”

short sentence stacking as a stylistic choice

none of these belong to ai. these are all what human writers have been writing since day one, way before ai was invented. ai was trained to mimic how human writers write — so em dash, not x not y but z and short sentence stacking would never have been used by ai at all if ai hadn’t learned and mimicked them from human writers.

no, you are not “fighting against ai” by accusing every work that has em dash, not x not y but z or short sentence stacking in it as ai-generated, you are helping ai harm the writing community by engaging in witch hunt and scaring human writers away from creating/sharing their works for fear of being wrongly accused of using ai.

speculations, accusations and ai witch hunt harm the writing community as much as ai does, if not more.

What do you mean “chat” is now referring to ChatGPT and not twitch chat? What? What? What the fuck? No?

When I address chat I am speaking to a presumed Greek chorus of real human people shitposting on their lunch break, not a machine that devours lakes to covert electricity into slop.

"Why do you talk so much about being intersex?"

Over 90% of parents of visibly intersex children opt for cosmetic surgery on their infants.

The ones that don't experience medical violence then, likely experience it as a teenager.

I didn't.

I am very rare in that I did not experience medical violence.

Why? Because I learned what intersexuality was as a young age, and I actively fought against what doctors wanted to do to me. All the way down to legal research on what medical care minors can be forced into. I remember walking into that doctor's appointment with the state law written down that proved that if I did not consent they could not do surgery.

That is why intersex activism is important. It saved me and it will save more.

Hey! Just a reminder! AO3 does NOT have an app. This garbage was made by theives who steal fan artist’s work and sell it back to you.

“Oh, but it’s free!” There are ads. They are making money off of this. They are stealing from the creators you love and you are hurting those same creators if you use this app or any similar app.

Don’t use it. Report it at every opportunity.

[the-quasar-hero]

It’s extremely fucked up that some ppl try to make you feel stupid and immature for hoping for a better world. You say you want world peace and mfs think you need a pacifier; dawg, I just don’t want ppl dying from violence. This idea that ppl simply must die as casualties of war is misanthropic to say the least.

The world is oftentimes such an ugly place, but sometimes it can be so beautiful.

Like, when two choirs, one from Croatia and the other from Zimbabwe, met on the opposite sides of a Lisbon subway station and both sang to each other.

I unfortunately do not know what the Zimbabwe children choir sang to them (although it was so beautiful), but the Croatian klapa Kastav sang 'Kuća puna naroda' (a house full of people).

And let my reward be a house full of people, my life, give me a voice, so I can embrace you with songs.

[leliesblou]

The song the Zimbabwean choir sang is called Indodana!

Thank you so much!!! <3 <3 <3

It's really quite bizarre how much work in trans healthcare bases itself on the idea that a patient who deliberately seeks out the Penis Removal Doctor and says "Yes, Penis Removal Doctor, I am certain that I would like to have my penis removed" might be lying to the Penis Removal Doctor, so that they can have their penis removed without actually wanting that.

What's even more bizarre is that the most common "solution" to this is a months-to-years long hazing ritual that has nothing to do with ensuring the patient knows what they're doing, and if you complain about how ridiculously abnormal this is for any kind of healthcare you summon a legion of "um actually" types who insist you're fighting against basic pre-surgical consultations.

I fear I am biting off more than I can chew but if Ryland Grace can save earth I can figure out how to make a quilt

[cloudcreates]

I found some references on Insta that you might find useful for making it!

THANK YOU

[3liza]

this info has not really made it around to everyone who would prefer to know about it, so let me restate here that Overwolf, Thunderstore, and Curseforge are all subsidiary/owner companies based in Israel that explicitly support the IDF both on the personal basis of their individual employees and the company itself donating money for snacks and body armor, but also fundraising from the public for the same. please do not use Thunderstore, Curseforge or Overwolf. your ad traffic is funding genocide. even if you have an adblocker, your participation in their ecosystem is keeping other people there and contributing traffic anyway. get your mods on Nexus or modrinth. use a different mod manager, there are plenty

if you MAKE mods, please pull them from Thunderstore and send your users to other mod hosts. there have already been multiple waves of this happening, especially amongst the Sims 4 modders, which is great

As a reminder, this is what she looks like:

[larkiethings]

Also I hope everyone knows that Miette was fostered before she was adopted, and her foster mom loved that little kitten so much and always hoped she’d gone to a good home. this tweet got so popular that she recognized Miette and reached out to her current mom, and was able to share previously unseen baby pictures

[darthmelyanna]

You mean, she saw Miette was kicked like the football and did nothing to help put Mother in jail for a thousand years? I am appalled.

[tigerses]

her!!!

[madeofstarsandfairylights]

Baby Miette!!!

[ottermatopoeia]

Babe wake up new Miette lore just dropped

[devil-with-three-heads]

IT’S MIETTE!!!!

Too much movement makes your joints hurt and too little movement also makes your joints hurt. This would imply that there's an optimal amount of movement that allows your joints to not hurt. This is a lie.
