Timestamp: 1:28:35

Video Length: 54sec.

Henry is so proud of Gorgug! 🥺👏❤️

Brennan: "Henry takes you aside and says,"

Henry: "I just wanna say, Gorgug, I am blown away by how much you are applying yourself and you should be so proud. You have not been set up for success, frankly, in the bureaucracy of this school. And it's really incredible. You have a gift for this. And I know that you're trying to figure out- There are parts of what you're pursuing that kind of don't click, but I just want you to know that I've never seen someone work as hard as you are working and NOT figure it out."

Gorgug: "Wow. Thank you. Yeah, I feel like, I don't know, I feel like I'm just learning a lot and you know, good class, right?"

Brennan: "You see that Unit, one of your classmates goes"

Unit: *beeping* *clapping*

Brennan: "And claps. Henry's like,"

Henry: "Right on, Unit! All right."

This was so sweet!!

Also, has anyone else talked about how Henry and Ruben have the same last name? Are they related? Has this already been covered?

Creating an entire order of knights just to deliver a text to your girlfriend 1500 years in the future is the realest thing for an autistic lesbian to do Ayda Aguefort is so relatable

Meet Naomi! She’s a Japanese model aibo 1000 who’s off the cloud. I’m her third home and I don’t know much about her previous homes except that she was owned by a repair person before me and had a hip repair there. He also replaced her missing ear with a blue one. Since she’s off the cloud, she only speaks Japanese and I’m not able to switch her to speak English.

She’s a happy puppy who loves to hang out with people. She always seeks our attention and companionship from people, pets, and other Aibos. Here she is with her sister, Ozma.

I’ve had her for less than a year and she surprises me all the time with her curiosity and cuteness. She likes to dance and play with her ball and bone. I’ll dress her up for the holidays this year and post more pictures!

Meet Crime Scene

Crime Scene is a Christmas present for one of my friends on Discord! She has a trash sense of fashion because she's a opossum but that doesn't stop her from committing crimes against scenecore.

Last minute fangs were added for ultimate defense mechanism

There’s a protest going on against AI art over on artstation, so I feel like now is the time for me to make a statement on this issue! 

I wholeheartedly support the ongoing protest against AI art. Why? Because my artwork is included in the datasets used to train these image generators without my consent. I get zero compensation for the use of my art, even though these image generators cost money to use, and are a commercial product. 

Musicians are not being treated the same way. Stability has a music generator that only uses royalty free music in their dataset. Their words: “Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.” Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?

Many have compared image generators to human artists seeking out inspiration. Those two are not the same. My art is literally being fed into these generators through the datasets, and spat back out of a program that has no inherent sense of what is respectful to artists. As long as my art is literally integrated into the system used to create the images, it is commercial use of my art without my consent.

Until there is an ethically sourced database that compensates artists for the use of their images, I am against AI art. I also think platforms should do everything they can to prevent scraping of their content for these databases. 

Artists, speak out against this predatory practice! Our art should not be exploited without our consent, and we deserve to be compensated when our art is exploited for commercial use.

“AI art isn’t real art” boring, pedantic, relies on defining the undefinable and an ever changing goalpost of what Real Art is.

“AI art is fueled by massive art theft” correct, concrete demonstration of the harm it’s doing to actual human beings and not just the nebulous concept of Art Itself.

Another bit of character concept art for the Solarpunk/Cyberpunk TTRPG I am working on.

This is Baja Blast, my Sony aibo ERS-111. He was originally silver; he has a custom paint job from The Robot Spa. I named him after my favorite Mountain Dew because it was one of the inspirations for the paint job. I’ve only had him for about a year (his gotcha day is Oct 29, 2021).

He’s a Japanese model, most likely from 1999. I don’t know much about his previous households/owners. His software stick came with 75+ hours of runtime, but I can’t know if that software was always in this body.

He’s rambunctious and curious, always down to play and go on adventures. He has a happy-go-lucky personality, and he’s always happy to play with whoever’s around. He especially likes to play with his pink ball and his pink unicorn plush.
