Keep shaming every company you see using AI “art” to market themselves. Tell them it looks bad, shows they lack integrity, and tell them you don’t support stolen labor. Be relentless about it, remind them it’s unacceptable, get yourself blocked.

Why? IT WORKS. Shame em & take your money elsewhere.

it's been her personal residence ever since, long abandoned by its previous owner, and located in a city where it's virtually impossible for tourists and press to get to, so it's ideal when she just needs to get away from everything and recuperate. it's taken care of by her poroggo when she's gone!

yoshi @ilikeyoshi.bsky.social · 12h

she did so, and found it startlingly easy to do so—she didn't, and may never realize, that this is because the previous owner designed the locks to specifically only be openable by louisoix, and since she absorbed so much of his/phoenix's aether in carteneau, the locks also responded to her!

l'aiha's in-game house is also her estate in idyllshire! she obtained it after 5.3; it's sat in the city, inaccessible due to advanced arcane locks, since the sharlayan exodus, and when she asked about it the goblins said she could have it if she could break the locks. :) 🧵

is your in-game/player housing part of your wol/oc's canon? is it an estate they own, an estate someone else owns, or another kind of locale entirely? ✧˖°

yoshi @ilikeyoshi.bsky.social · 12h

i definitely consider the holidays themselves canon, but generally individual events are only vaguely alluded to sometimes, particularly the rising event as this holiday DOES actually have recurring relevance in l'aiha's story. :) i do think many events ARE canon, they're just very insignificant

#WOLQOTD with the Halloween event I’m curious to know, do you count the seasonal events as part of your WOL lore or rather something that you do just for the rewards?

l'aiha wakes up first :) she's naturally an extremely early riser, usually right before dawn, and uses that time to get her morning physical and magical therapy session in! y'shtola is no late riser herself, but she's usually up an hour or two later.

Mo @ the Wandering Stairs 💫 @themoyouknow.etheirys.social · 15h

A #wolqotd who in your pair(s) wakes up first? Is it a significant amount of time before the other wakes? What does their morning routine look like?

If they don’t have a partner, who wakes first on the road with whoever they travel with? Do they have to be woken up or do they do the waking?

Gentle reminder that should a general strike happen, it’s crucial to plan and establish robust networks of community care.

There will be people, especially within the disability community, who can’t participate.

Who have needs that must be met.

Let’s make sure we figure out how to include them!

It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

lrs god REAL though. this one. this is how i got good as a writer and modder—and why i can't crack it as an artist! i think it's okay to recognize when you don't have, or don't care enough to have, the stubbornness for a given thing, as long as you can accept what comes with that (ie, NOT becoming

i haven't actually dug into the idea yet but i'm also considering looking into nutrients and substances that activate the body in various ways as a beneficial part of her diet post-light corruption, to combat the stasis of her severely umbral-aspected aether. things like caffeine (in moderation)

yoshi @ilikeyoshi.bsky.social · 1d

l'aiha is actually allergic to eggs! i don't have any deep fascinating lore about it; the /eategg emote just used to make my game crash, so it became a part of her character out of amusement for how bizarrely specific the issue was :3c

I think a lot of fantasy fans, especially, white ones talking about BIPOC cultures, approach culture research from a pre-conceived notion of it or a pre-determined goal and then refuse to acknowledge they were wrong because it's an indictment of themselves, especially if they think they're an ally.

afaik it isn't confirmed that SNAP is getting cut in november but there has been news of the potential due to the gov. shutdown. if u or loved ones rely on snap, i implore you to take advantage of programs like this!! local food pantries & soup kitchens too!!

The government said they aren’t releasing SNAP benefits in November — but ALDI is helping families out. Their Thanksgiving meal bundle feeds 10 people for just $40! 🦃 Available now through Christmas Eve, it includes 21 items (like a 14-lb turkey + sides). Share this with everyone!

I cannot recommend you enough to install the Wikipedia app on your devices and use it like you would any search engine. Nowadays they even have tabs so you can open many articles at once.

And, if you can, please donate to the foundation. It has survived the internet enshittification that way.

wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...
