My Kalma has been diagnosed with breast cancer. The good news is she is in good health it may be low grade, meaning surgery will drastically improve life expectancy. The bad is it normally costs around $6000 and is time sensitive- things I just do not have. ko-fi.com/coyoteprince

that's better

Over on threads someone just use ai;dr and we all need to adopt that right quick

sigh

im also really annoyed with genai grifters who make non-artists question if real artists are using genai or not i occasionally share wips but when im hyperfixated on a piece i dont fucking think about posting a sketch cause im hyperfixated on the piece

Please Boost! Help out a local Portlander, they're a near and dear friend. Please boost this to help them get some stability in these scary ass times.

Finding an old internet friend on a different website is always a joy! Happy to have you back in my life @proudbulba.bsky.social

it drives you insane how much erosion of freedom is justified by concern for kids when the people who actually hurt them will never face consequences

SONIC ADVENTURE #SonictheHedgehog #Sonic

One of the things that keeps me going in the ongoing fight against COVID and for Long COVID treatments is how far we’ve gotten with HIV. If you organize with us we can do this too

JD Vance looks like yassified Chucky

furries must be protected at all costs

Was just a meme but then so many people are getting away with horrible things 😑

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there. I need you to listen to these people. STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

As long as I'm dying on hills: kids need access to horror stories. Children out there have and will go through absolutely horrific things that they don't have the words for, that they can't process on their own. Kids already know monsters are real; they also need to know monsters can be survived.

The conclusion isn't 'Qanon was right' it's 'Qanon was an op to install Trump, Musk, Thiel and dozens of other Epstein pals into the halls of power and build the most pro-sex criminal regime since slavery.' Which was obvious years ago.

I've seen a lot of people worried about using AI logos for ICE OUT protests. While I can't personally verify which logos are AI and which are not I did make a human-made version of the Minnesota Rebel Alliance Logo. The logo is under Creative Common License CC0. Source files🔗⬇️

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

Still can't believe the latest Epstein Files release just casually confirmed the anti-SJW movement was planned by pedophiles. "The entire reactionary anti-woke backlash was masterminded by child traffickers" is the kinda shit I'd say as hyperbolic agitprop, but it was true the whole time.

This is (one of the reasons) why Gamergate was so hard for people to wrap their head around: it sounded ridiculous on its face. Evil is banal but also ridiculous, and boy do people let that second detail trip them up.

Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy

Oh lookie some new tattoo flash All repeatable Book with me! I’m in PDX! kptats.club

"never thought i'd die fighting side by side with the annoying orange"

Apparently they found a better print of Manos and it’s getting a 4k restoration I’m so happy. That movie still sucks.

4 Black journalists have been kidnapped by the federal government

I know the world is shit right now, but I just want to toot my own horn real quick. I just had a really good employee review AND got a raise. The only thing wrong is a problem with my attendance. But instead of punishing me for it, they're incentivising me (with another raise) to improve it!

Hey, pals, this study is headed by Lisa Littman, noted transphobe and pseudoscientist. She's on the advisory board for the genocidal anti-trans group GENSPECT. Do not, under any circumstance, participate in this junk study.

If you work in journalism: you cannot use machine learning to upscale a photo and still be telling the truth. It WILL lie, even if you don't intend to tell one. It can only do what it does by inventing details where none exist, which means it will inherently be misrepresenting reality.

Once reality is optional, trust is impossible.

Unfriendly reminder, AI is being used to destroy trust. Do not normalize the use of AI. AI can not reliably enhance videos or low-quality images. This is the quiet replacement of reality. Do not let this be normalized.

TLDR: Apple is forcing Patreon to remove the "per creation" model in order for their app to stay within their app store. Don't forget! Anyone who signs up via the Apple store based app of Patreon has to pay gigantic fees anyways so I really, truly do not see the point of it. At all.

February's almost here and we're not yet at the halfway mark. Friendly reminder that I'm always open for commissions. If you'd like to commission/donate please head on over to ko-fi.com/mayuzane

I do feel like ICE is losing, but just because the enemy is losing doesn't mean we've WON. And victory only comes when ICE is destroyed and gone.

informative dog breed poser that could probably exist in dishonored #dishonored

🌟"PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE I DON'T WANT TO BE A MAGICAL GIRL" EPISODE 2 🌟 "I Want to be a Normal Girl" SATURDAY, JANUARY 31ST @ 11AM PST!!!!!!!!!!!!

I truly hate to ask, but my unemployment has run out and the last two interviews I was scheduled for were canceled on me. Any amount you can donate goes to bills, my kids, and hopefully finishing up my dental surgeries.

There's always going to be bad news and suffering happening somewhere at any given time. It's not insensitive to find joy and distractions in your own life. This is what we're fighting for after all, that we can all be safe and happy. So don't waste those opportunities to enjoy life when you can.

quick lil doodle i drew while talking to @ivyvine009.bsky.social about how to translate expressions referenced from human faces onto animal forms :) <3 So fun

For any elected official who needs to hear this, I impart a lesson learned from the NFL: When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.

I've been hearing this refrain lately about AI- "Everyone uses it, some people are just honest about it." Bullshit. I can't stop search 'summaries' popping up, but otherwise it's not something I use or want in my writing process. Never prompted ChatGPT. Never spent AI credits on Microsoft/Adobe.

US-owned TikTok is a greater threat than Chinese-owned TikTok.

know that the big manga artists have like half a dozen assistants helping them. If you can't do as much as 7 people working more than full-time THAT IS NOT JUST NORMAL, IT IS HEALTHY

In fact, the gun had fentanyl in its system. As conservatives have been reminding us constantly, people don’t kill people, guns kill people.

When we talk about people murdered by ICE, we shouldn't forget Keith Porter, a black man who was shot by ICE on new years eve

As we grieve for Alex Pretti and Renee Good in MN, please do not forget Victor Manuel Diaz, who died in ICE custody after being taken from here. And all others who have died in their custody.
