@foxefuel made an awesome animation of Skye, I couldn’t help but keyframe and add some music. Someone over at e6 said this song went well with her dance, I’m inclined to agree.
Song: The Soulmate Project - Swinging & Dancing
IT’S SO SMOOTH! This is amazing dude!
his paws………….. do the thing…………………………………………………….
I don’t know what to call that thing he does with his paws but regardless I love it
These two look like they’ve been up all night drinking and roaming the streets and can’t believe the sun is rising.

Comic #148: Christmas wishes - Patreon - Twitter - Facebook - Art tumblr There aren’t many things I want for Christmas. I have a bunch of ‘stuff’ but what I really need is positive energy and experiences. So here is my little list of hopes for the end of this year and the start of the new one. Posting kinda late because I was out spending the day with family!
Once, I encountered the funny story of an AI image descriptor with a sheep obsession. It had been trained on pictures of fields of sheep. Therefore, it tagged anything in a field as 'sheep', including an empty field, because they work on statistical probability. Therefore, it thinks "ah, a field! there's probably a sheep here." (It's a bit more complicated but basically that.) It also couldn't recognise sheep in places that weren't fields, such as petrol stations or barns. [cont]
Now, the alarming aspect of this story is that the very same technology is probably what tumblr is using to identify porn. Now, if it can’t tell that an empty field is not, in fact, full of sheep, what hope do we have that it can’t tell an empty room isn’t full of writing human forms engaged in passionate coitus?
this really does sound like an episode of black mirror
But wait, it’s even weirder than that!
This is gonna produce some absolutely baffling pornography.
…. oh my fucking god they actually are using open source software. They’re using a fucking one-layer unidirectional bicategory tag-trained neural network. This will never work. Literally, it will never work. There’s just not enough algorithmic complexity to do what they’re asking of it. I bet you I could prove on a mathematical level that this joke of a neural net fundamentally lacks the abstraction necessary to do its job.
This will never get better. Their algorithm will never stop fucking up, it will never actually flag porn reliably and it will always require a massive quantity of human hours to deal with the deluge of mistagged pictures. This isn’t just a case of an insufficiently trained algorithm, it’s just … this is the most basic neural network you can make. It probably hasa a lot of neurons and has loads of training data but like … you can’t just brute force this kind of stuff. One layer of neurons is just Not Enough.
Also, just to make this clear, Tumblr lied. I mean, we already know this, but I mean they liiiieeeeed. All that stuff they promised about what would or would not be censored? That cannot be delivered on with a system this simple. Nude classical sculptures, political protests, male-presenting nipples (really Tumblr?), nude art outside the context of sex, all that? You cannot train a bicategory one-layer neural network to exclude those things. It cannot be done. Tumblr never intended for those things to actually be permitted, they were just lying. Because the system they have cannot actually do what they said it would and never will be able to.
Also, this kind of system is super vulnerable to counter-neural strategies. I bet you before the end of the month someone hooks up their own open source one layer bicategory neural network which puts an imperceptible (to humans) layer of patterned static over arbitrary images, and trains it by having it bot-post static-ed images to Tumblr and reinforcing based on whether the images are labeled nsfw or sfw. Seriously, within a month someone will have an input-output machine which can turn any image ‘sfw’ in Tumblr’s eyes.
This is genuinely pathetic. Like, I have real pity for whoever implemented this, because it’s clear Tumblr doesn’t actually have any engineers with any expertise with machine learning left at all and they foisted the job off on some poor bastard who has no idea what they’re doing and is going to get all kinds of flak for their (perfectly reasonable and predetermined) failure from management.
As has been pointed out before, there are no humans behind this at all. The review process just reruns either the same algorithm or another algorithm, but people have posted screen shots showing obviously SFW pictures that were still deemed NSFW on review, despite the fact that any human, no matter how overworked / tired would have seen that these pictures were not porn.
so what I’m hearing is this algorithm is quite literally an argument between tumblr’s last two brain cells
THE ULTIMATE FUCKING POST
oh how far you’ve come, Satan post
oh how far you’ve come
IT’S BACK
OH MY GOD IT HAS RETURNED AND IT’S LONGER THAN BEFORE!
THE ETERNAL POST
Wow. There’s new.
capitalism ruining video games isn’t even close to being a new phenomenon. companies in 1983 were rushing out so many shitty licensed Atari games that people just got fucking sick of it and stopped playing video games for years.
the video game industry crash took essentially every major video game company off the market because the profits fell by 97% and didn’t even recover until Nintendo tricked everyone into thinking the NES was just a toy by bundling it with ROB.
(and let’s not forget Tetris, probably the most successful and popular video game of all time, was created by some random office worker in the soviet union. profit wasn’t even a consideration when the game was being made)
The lesson is that communism makes great and long lasting games.
Lenin was a gamer
There are 364 days till Christmas and people already have their Christmas lights up.
Unbelievable.
I WAITED A WHOLE YEAR TO REBLOG THIS
Decided to turn that little animation I made a year ago into a 3d model.
It’s something I’ve been wanting to do for a couple of months now and it gave me an excuse to try animating in 3d. I’m glad I finally got around to doing this and I think it turned out nice.
For those who were wondering about Nick’s and Finnick’s backstory… HERE IT IS!! Heads up @zootopepo @zoocross0vers @nekomimiranger
I bought this in Amazon.com, so if you have the chance, order it now! It took me a month or so to get it, but it’s worth it.
WHOA CANON
Nick knew Finnick from… juvenile detention? Hmm… Jared Bush did say that Finnick is 8-10 years older than Nick… so I guess another case of mistaken age xD
Huh, Nick really did have a checkered past, didn’t he?
Nick’s ‘superpower’ is hustling… he was uncomfortable doing outright stealing. But… between being iced and stealing, he’d always choose the latter. He’s a survivor.
AHA I KNEW IT! There was a … device that allowed Finnick to step on the pedals. Probably an intractable one, since we do not see it in the penultimate pic.
“Time is up”
Dang lol
The Witch’s Mark
The dark blue collar floated in the witch’s study, like a leaf blown by the whims of the wind. Jack watched the rhythmic swing for a few seconds, mesmerized by the sinuous elegance of that movement until it froze in mid-air and a silver spark lit up on the deep color of the fabric.
“What’s going on?” As soon as the question left his lips, he became aware of his condition again, and a touch of distress colored his next inquiry as he shifted his gaze to the witch: “Are you planning to cast some other spell upon me? Wasn’t turning a hare into a bat enough to amuse you, Sorcerer?”
The sparkle started to take shape. One tip stretched upward, another did the same, downward; and then, they both bent to the right as if to form a circle, but did not rejoin.
Finally, its energy dissipated and the motion ceased; at the end of the process, what remained was the round shape of a crescent moon hanging shiny and proudly on the collar.
At that point, the candid vixen finally laid her eyes on Jack, bestowing an amused grin upon him. “To subdue a little pest like you,” she began, amber blazing fiercely through her irises, “a more powerful constraint is required.” Her fingers snapped, and the collar disappeared… only to reappear a moment later around the knobby length of his neck. “This will domesticate you, Jack.”
The moment the witch pronounced his name, an invisible force began to pull the bat towards her. When Jack tried to fly away, the pressure on his throat became so heavy it stole his breath away. “L… let me go!” The little beast gasped as short and thin paws tried to alleviate the pain the noxious circle was causing him.
“Not a chance~!” she giggled, holding her arms out. “Come here, my new familiar. You are all mine now.”
Words dipped in magic crept into his heart’s cracks. They were like syrup, thick and dense and sweet beyond measure, dripping through Jack’s mental toughness, reducing it to nothing but an agonizing spasm of resistance. “Your stubbornness is cute as much as it is futile,” commented the witch, wetting her dark lips as though she was about to enjoy a delicious meal. “I’d suggest you relinquish all hope to escape me, tiny boy, for I intend to make full use of your allegiance from now on.”
The late, once fleet-footed hare quivered intensely, his body powerless to resist the lure of the magical vixen as her sorcery dragged him right into her possessive, avid hold. “What… do you want to do to me…?”
It felt unbearably soft when her warm chest welcomed him, his face squeezed between her sweet bosoms being both the most heavenly and horrific sensation Jack had ever experienced in his life. “If you are obedient, I will pamper you and coddle you, and you will play with me for as long as I want. But if you try to leave my side ever again…” Jack felt her slowly tracing the perimeter of one ear with the tip of her tongue, and he used the last bits of his strength to grit the teeth so that no weird sounds could slip out of his mouth,
“… In that case, I’ll eat you.”
Happy (early) Halloween, everyone! Here is one fantastic art made by Rem, followed by a little snippet I felt the absolute need to write. You can consider it a sort of setup to explain the curious ornament around a certain bat’s neck…

Beautiful!!!
I wonder what they are saying yn the comic, but this is so awesome :D :D
Aswwwww
I hope someone translates the comic
Drawing Tips for Nick and Judy!
Long overdue but I did it! Below is not so much a drawing tutorial, but a compilation of design tips I like to keep in mind when I’m sketching out Nick and Hopps
So let’s just jump into it
I’m gonna say this again. Watch Zootopia and focus on Hopps’ eyes the entire time. I KNOW IM NOT SEEING THINGS HER EYES CHANGE SHAPE A LOT.
I guess for another tip on drawing Nick’s muzzle is drawing the nose first, and, this might come naturally to some artists more than others but the reason i usually knock-out Nick’s muzzle (and Judy’s ears for that matter) is because I can easily visualize where in space (aka on the paper) where each feature sits. It’s like having future vision - I am able to see a flash of an image of where the nose appears and then I quickly draw over the spot where it ‘was’. Like as if I were tracing it - over the faint little exposure. ..gosh does that make sense??
Anyway moving on
Oh jeez I hope you can read my whimsically atrocious handwriting

Gud stuff
Tutorials are always welcome
I'm new to your account and I've seen all the wonderful drawings and stories and I was wondering about the little Jack drawing?Seeing the drawing with Jack when he was young and the desire to become a chef! I wonder why he wanted to become a chef, his father was a chef?I really want to know!
His parents worked in a restaurant, and his father in particular was a cook, so Jack grew up with the idea that cooking was a way to share something with his family. Plus, he has always seen his father taking care of his wife by cooking light meals for her, so to Jack cooking was also a way to take care of his loved ones. 💕
😢…
Some personal sketches.
What's the latest case?
Lol
the best xD
their smug faces xDDDDDD
Their expressions are the best xD
