They are already selling data to midjourney, and it's very likely your work is already being used to train their models because you have to OPT OUT of this, not opt in. Very scummy of them to roll this out unannounced.

[writterings]

here's some instructions for anyone who doesn't know how to opt out:

login in on desktop, it's not available on mobile yet

click "Account"

click on your blog

go to "Blog Settings"

go to "Visibility"

Scroll down to the bottom option

turn the toggle ON, not off

you will have to do this individually for each sideblog you have too, no way to do it for each account in one go

Keystone post

this is a post to mark the 5 year hiatus in this blog.

Am I going to be active again? Probably not, I need to cut down on sosmed.

So why am I back? Tumblr is just a really nice place for archiving content! I miss blogging type sosmeds.

What’s my brand now? I am really not sure. All I did so far was update my bio and haven’t re-curated my feed whatsoever. What you should know is that I am now free from cringing over my personal interests which includes a whole range of transgressive fiction.

I won’t delete any old posts as I am archive supporter even when I reblogged some bullshit in the past. It has been 5 years and a lot of my opinions has drastically changed. The only thing that hasn’t changed is that I’m still a queer nonbinary muslim; just prouder.

also note I changed from “pearlprincex” to “pearlprincet”. Yes, one letter difference. Apologies but I think princet sounds better when paired with pearl.

people are allowed to leave you. people are allowed to break up with you. people are allowed to love you but not want to be with you. people are allowed to not want to talk to you. people are allowed to put their happiness before yours and do what makes them happy even if it does not include you. people are allowed to move on from you. people are allowed to fall in love with someone else. people are allowed to not want you in their life. people are allowed to do whatever they want to better themselves and become the version of themselves they are trying so hard to love. don’t be bitter towards someone who is only trying to be happy.

I feel like this POV does not get enough voice.

[urie]

my hot take as someone who has experienced the lowest of lows in terms of severe depression and anxiety and executive dysfunction: the whole “not everyone is neurotypical karen” mindset is legitimately damaging and destructive and ultimately will make you feel worse and more isolated

[urie]

eating well and exercising and etc absolutely helps with mental illness. obviously it’s irritating to hear that when those things feel like impossible tasks, i get that, and i’ve been there. but forcing yourself to eat better, to walk more, to get up out of bed and shower even when you don’t want to, those things help. they clear your head. they make you feel better. they absolutely do. getting there is hard, but once you do it, it does help

[urie]

rejecting any kind of help, even the most benign suggestion, from someone who is trying their best to think positively for you and shoulder the emotional burden with you, is going to make you feel worse. it’s going to make you feel that much more cut off and lonely and frustrated. i have isolated myself and ruined friendships with people because i chose to close myself off from people who were just trying to help and i convinced myself that they didn’t understand me and no one would ever understand me. what did that get me in the end? genuinely nothing. it made me feel even more alone.

[urie]

in 2018 i encourage people who suffer like i have to see where people are coming from with cheesy self-care advice. they’re coming from the heart. and sometimes, doing a face mask or taking a hot bath or eating a nutritious meal or getting up to watch the sunrise or even just one yoga class can make you feel that much closer to the person you want to be. a lot of recovery from mental illness is “fake it till you make it” type shit. so don’t reject even the corniest advice because you are convinced it won’t help you. sometimes it really does. and you shouldn’t keep denying yourself even the smallest of victories because you feel like it’s easier to wallow in how bad you feel. it is so difficult to do good things for yourself and your body, but it is so rewarding

honestly, my favorite thing about persona five? like the big thing it did right? was madarame and yusuke. 

bc madarame is unquestionably an abuser. the way he treated yusuke (and natsuhiko and yusuke’s mother and all of  his other students) was unforgivable and the man is responsible for at least two deaths and he exploited so many people to destroy their lives. everyone acknowledges this about him, including yusuke, after he finds out what madarame did to his mother

but yusuke also loved madarame, because madarame raised him and took care of him and was the only father he ever knew. and he spends so much of his confidant route grappling with that, with the guilt of having loved someone who was a horrible person, with his own memories, with not trusting himself or other people, with sudden independence he was never prepared for.

and then at rank ten, yusuke learns from a former friend of madarame’s that madarame had genuinely cared about him and worried over him. and honestly at this point i was scared they were going to go for a whole “see he wasn’t bad” thing but they didn’t! instead, yusuke accepts this as just another facet of who madarame was, but neither yusuke nor madarame’s friend try to say that that madarame was somehow not abusive. instead, madarame’s friend validates yusuke’s difficulty trusting him and backs off while still offering to pay for his education. 

the culmination of yusuke’s arc doesn’t force him to say that madarame is one or the other, father figure or exploiter, lovable or abusive. the game validates that both can be true, and neither negates the other. 

fiction has a real problem with presenting abusers as completely hateable monsters with exactly 0 positive traits, and while that’s considerably easier to do, that isn’t a lot of people’s reality. so i really appreciate that p5 gave madarame and yusuke a more nuanced relationship
