Tumblr & Going Forward

With the confirmation of AI deals and allegations of user data already being sold before they could consent to it, I no longer feel comfortable posting artwork on tumblr. This is a decision more on principle than practicality.

I will be leaving everything I've posted here up, unless I decide to delete entirely. Doing so would also be based on principle, as all signs points to there being no point otherwise. Deleted blogs sold to OpenAi. Jesus christ.

As of now, I'm strictly on Discord, but I don't feel comfortable sharing my private discord publicly. I have a business discord, but that is, as it says on the tin, for business. If you're interested in hiring me or having me as a professional contact, feel free to send an ask or IM. Wherever I decide to share my art next, I will post an announcement here.

Until then, I advise everyone to opt out. And maybe research if this counts as a security violation that could be brought to court. I dunno.

EDIT: This is getting a bizarre amount of attention, and starting to get replies suggesting Glaze as a solution. I elaborated on why exactly I no longer feel comfortable posting art here in the replies of this post:

TL;DR - I don't care about the tech. I care about the deceitful way this deal was handled, and how it's the latest in an escalating pattern of deceit and abuse towards tumblr's userbase.

Were you helping refugees at the border last week by donating to mutual aid groups or doing translation and outreach?

Were you calling for ceasefire and doing what you could to aid Palestinians last week? (Esims for gaza here)

Were you talking to your unhoused neighbors with respect and advocating for them and protesting encampment clearances last week? (There's no link just treat people like people and share cash if you can)

Last week were you participating in community meal shares and free stores?

Were you supporting bail funds and protesting the carceral state and trying to stop executions and humanizing incarcerated people last week? (How to write a letter to an incarcerated person)

Were you working to increase access to abortion medications and birth control and abortions in general last week?

Did you share information about DIY HRT and spend time paying attention to the books your school board was banning and make your lgbtqia friends welcome and included last week?

Were you aware of the groundwork being laid for a 2028 general strike and the ways that you could support one (contributing to strike funds, joining and supporting unions, attempting to unionize your workplace) last week?

Were you helping the people around you, were you caring for your friends, were you making information free, were you picking up trash, were you sharing a meal, were you tracking fascists, were you challenging the wrongs done by your government in the ways available to you last week?

Good. Keep doing that.

A better world is possible. Keep working toward it.

Tags via @ymirjotunn are correct:

#hi people with ocd: you do not have to do every single one of these#or even any of these specifically #there are a LOT of ways to help your communities and this post should be taken as a list of examples

But I do want to note that you should be doing something more than voting. A lot of the people who are feeling really hit hard today are people who feel like pushing for a democrat win was the only thing they could do to care for themselves and their communities, and that is simply not true. No matter who the president is, you can care for one another.

does a little dab but uncutely

hey hi we're getting evicted in april. all negligence on the landlord's part, repairs will make the space unlivable for months so they need us gone. won't take us back either lmao.

anyways any help would be immensely appreciated. everything i'm making right now is going towards a down payment on a house at best, rent somewhere else at worse.

update 2/3: one of us got our arm broken today. so. add that to the tally.

COMMISSION INFO & KO-FI

[godhex]

march update; hi we need at least 3000$ by the end of the month (more like the 20th). we don't have that. help.

we've already asked the landlord if he'd be willing to let us pay the deposits in installments but he said no, we need to have that 3k up front. we have no other alternative places to go as our eviction date is a week after our set move-in date.

we're working our asses off to afford this, but there's only so much we can do. i hate taking on more commissions when my queue is already as long as it is, but i'm willing to do anything just to get past this nonsense.

[zelebirbo]

hey, fair warning: if tumblr upper management both do not hold themselves accountable for discriminatory moderation practices, and if the allegation that tumblr is planning to sell user data to midjourney is confirmed, i will be deleting my blogs.

i'm not sure if i will transfer to a new social media as frankly i don't really like to use them. feel free to suggest alternatives anyway.

trans women deserve safety and palestine deserves to be free.

UPDATE 1: Staff standing in defiance of Matt (as best they can) has tilted me slightly towards staying, but I will be keeping an eye out as to whether moderation actually improves and if the aforementioned user data sale goes through before I make my final decision. And of course if the site still exists in May when Matt gets back in the office.

UPDATE 2: See my pinned post.
