Sweet Pea Simmer @ssweetpeasimmer - Tumblr Blog

every ICE agent could die right now and they'd all deserve it

What is this blog?

Well, to put it shortly, we're a group of people trying to make a tool for simmers to use in order to avoid or just remain aware of any content put out into the community that may have use of Generative AI in any way! (We're not sure if this blog will remain under this name, just an fyi)

▶ OUR RESSOURCES/TIPS ◀

How does it work?

You send us asks if you believe and/or have suspicions that a creator or user has made or is currently making use of genAI for their content! (proof is appreciated, but we'll provide them in our posts, so no need to worry about that part!) PLEASE limit yourself to one creator per ask, this way we can curate our lists more easily when doing our research! When asks are sent, we make thorough research and respond with our finds to ensure we provide proper information. WE ARE HUMAN, meaning we are prone to mistake, so if you believe we may have poorly judged or missed something in our research, please let us know! We will make the edits or fixes necessary!

(asks can be sent anonymously, we understand you may not want to be put on the spotlight or traced down when bringing up certain creators).

Why are you doing this?

We believe simmers are allowed transparency for the content they consume or download now that generative AI has made its way into the community, whether that be from creators who are open about it, or trying to pass it swiftly without notice. GenAI specifically holds a multitude of problems, but we'll keep it brief with these articles. We highly suggest doing your own further research. Nourish that brain a little! 💙

AI has an environmental problem. Here’s what the world can do about that.

The Nazi-like salute from Musk during a Trump inauguration event sparks multiple subreddits on Reddit to consider blocking links to X/Twitte

Listen, I am absolutely living for the energy on countless subreddits today and I need to see that same sparkle here.

I know there are Xwitter holdouts in the Sims community because it's still a primary communication platform for The Sims... or perhaps because some folks are too vain to abandon a platform where they can boast a high public follower count or "famous" mutuals... ew 🙄

How can we help shift our community away from supporting a literal Nazi with every passive link click or mindless scroll?

Can we... ban Xwitter links on all our Discord servers? call in people who post X links like we have (tried) with CF? share screenshots instead of X links when the next "leak" comes out?

How can we push The Sims team to shift their communications strategy to other, less harmful platforms? (cough, Bluesky)

This feels incredibly urgent to me as an American but it should feel urgent to you too, regardless of where you live! Just look at Elon's recent backing of the right wing extremist AfD party in Germany. The man has enough money to buy any government he wants, let's not let him have our eyeballs for free.
