Likes and follows. Main is @masturbatress. Queer disillusioned tired trans lady and a vanguard cringennial, 44 years and counting. This is a withered branch — although apparently I still like and reply and follow and accident post from here. God dammit. Anyway, check out the main.

Moving to masturbatress! Did a trickeroo to keep the spiffy name but you've been autoguided on the withering timeline. Go refollow, maybe?

always interesting whenever people start talking about polyamory as particularly unstable or prone to jealousy bc it begs the question of if they’ve ever seen or heard of monogamous couples

are you aware that those people are having sincere earnest discussions on whether following someone on social media counts as cheating

You don't need a reason to help people.

Our cover of "A place to call home" by Nobue Uematsu. The theme song for Final Fantasy IX. ♡

The cover is played with two recorders, a bowed lyre, guitar and fingercymbals!

For our coming concert we were thinking of playing this with six recorders for some primary school nostalgy 🤭🎵

The thing that really boils my potatoes about AI in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist.

But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this AI generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the AI Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building.

I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.
