And here it is. As Erin says, blatantly criminal and unconstitutional, and I would guess we'll see lawsuits from a number of states almost immediately, but...it's here. Fucking cruel people who want children dead. That's what they all are.

BINDERS YOU GUYS. BINDERS

If you are still on X/Twitter in any capacity as an artist, get off there right freaking now.

Now had joined my Kitaro's on the shelf thanks to the plushie selfie stick I had gotten at daiso a few years back

Came home from work to fine my yokai night parade book and my bake zori from @acodecodoll.bsky.social came in today, it's a nice surprise to come home to after a stressful day

Happy Krampusnacht 🖤 look out naughty children, he’s gonna getcha!

Even in Japan, many do not know that several yokai are original (and copyrighted) Shigeru Mizuki designs. His yokai have become so accepted that most people just assume they are from ages ago.

Oh god, it’s worse. This is Open Ai dictating to the studios they can “opt out” of OUTPUTS. This isn’t even about the training, as Open Ai thinks it’s all theirs to use for free. The hubris of these thieves is just obscene. I can’t see them not getting sued for this, it’s just that ridiculous.

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE. If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease! Donate at blinkingguy.com

Do NOT believe the misinfo going around There absolutely have been MASSIVE TOS updates Most notably: 1) Specifying no FICTIONAL noncon 2) No "dangerous" kink 3) No DISCUSSING self harm, suicide, or substance abuse unless its "educational" So what can we DO about it? #SaveSpeech 1/🧵

Found this fun book at Boo Radley's today

New Yokai sculpture alert!! In Japanese folklore, Kasa-Obake are old oiled-paper umbrellas that become alive when they reach a certain age, becoming a Tsukumogami. Not too dangerous, they enjoy surprising humans by sneaking up on them and delivering a large oily lick with their long tongues.

Fuck me this is bleak. But please, do continue to use GenAI slop thumbnails for your YouTube videos, or your album art, or your book covers or whatever else. I'll continue to refuse to watch/listen/read any of them, knowing already they're not worth the time & that you're a disappointing lazy hack.

More reasons to be anti-AI

An ad from box lunch popped up of these little yokais, so I ordered some to add to my collection

This is a deep dive into one of those questions I never thought to ask: Who said "J-Horror" first? The answer may surprise you.

I'm scared that a huge issue is not being aware: On Aug 29th the US is removing the de minimis rule on all packages. Being international, de minimis meant no one payed tariffs on my goods since it was under $800. Now there will be a $80-200 fee to receive my art. Even for a $5 sticker. 🔸(1/4)

Because some people haven't heard it yet: PAYPAL IS NOT A BANK, DO NOT LEAVE MORE THAN A COUPLE HUNDRED DOLLARS SITTING IN YOUR ACCOUNT AT ANY TIME. MOVE IT TO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY. Paypal can and will close your account and steal all your money without warning. And have done MANY times.

Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!

The American Manga Award for Best Translation does not name the translator. This seems like a "slight" oversight.

twice today, when pressured, Stripe operators have said, plainly, that i cannot use stripe for the purchase of LGBTQ content. not just adult content, but explicitly LGBTQ.

Went to Resin Rose for the first time and won the raffle for the doll I wanted. Gonna make em a new kimono though cause the one they have keeps pulling their arms back

THIS is why we're telling you to stop using ChatGPT THIS is why we got pissed at the Coke ad THIS is what happens when you normalize the use of artificially generated content. Stuff like this is despicable and an absolute violation of a person's likeness and rights. For the love of God, stop this.

Sure, put your quality translations on the same shelf as AI translated "work"

"You can either pay once and have it forever, or keep paying for it. We want you to keep paying for it"

Ah had a feeling about that

What benefit is there to Crunchyroll to cut off libraries? In this political climate, it's a pretty awful PR choice and yet another way of booting the medium's target demo. Anime fans start young and they don't have credit cards. www.reddit.com/r/librarians...
