You wanna know something cool?

I rebranded my channel and have been quietly working in the background, and now I have something to show for it- the trailer to the spiritual reboot of my old web series, "The Ballad of Loreley."

Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

As someone who works in the tech industry--absolutely.

They are testing the waters. These are top-down orders. The ONLY way to stop it is a visceral negative reaction. Write articles. Post your rage. Email. Post. @. All those things.

Only you have the power to kill it.
Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.

tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

🧵⬇️
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

If you're out celebrating the excesses of capitalism, or taking advantage of the steep discounts to get needed items, DO NOT patronize Starbucks.

Your pumpkin spiced abomination is not worth crossing the picket line.
Starbucks employees escalated their strike on Black Friday, expanding to 120 stores and 85 cities.

Their CEO took home $96 million while refusing to negotiate a living wage for workers.

Boycott Starbucks. Stand with the employees.

Just so you know...
Art directors, Art enjoyers, Art buyers and Artists talk with each other. Nobody wants AI slop, specially when there is real art out there as an alternative. You can totally get blacklisted, not only on the industry, but inside fandoms for defending AI precarization and theft.

Garzey’s Wing is legitimately better than this, and that used to be the infamous example of a “bad” dub.

But now even that dub can be said to have had HUMAN ACTORS trying their best to understand a new medium. And I already miss that.

This was obvious from the moment it was announced, but still worth mentioning. The genocide never ended.
The diplomatic "achievement" of the ceasefire was to recalibrate the tempo of the genocide sufficiently to get it off the front pages and the news bulletins, thus alleviating the political pressure on Israel's western accomplices.

The NGO’s chief says last month’s ceasefire ‘risks creating a dangerous illusion that life in Gaza is returning to normal’

Your art is not slop, your doodles are not slop, your left facing portrait with no background is not slop, please stop referring to your own works as slop because you are sending a message to other artists that their hard work is also slop. Save it for the AI plague that is actual slop.

If you need anything voice related in the next little while, you should definitely consider Tamara for it! She's a very skilled VA, whose power knows no bounds.

Worked with her on REDACTED, and so I can also personally say she's lovely to work with!

I'm old.

If you're not, listen to this.

Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.

Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.

It's literally never been more important.

Perfectly good time to remind 🦃,

fats/grease/oils congeal around solids and wreck sewage systems. Let grease cool and scrape it into the trash or freeze it in a plastic container and chuck it on trash day.

Your pipes will thank you. 🚰💕

Idk how many times people are gonna have to say "stop using ai it is literally killing us" before people listen.

No not even as a joke. don't go near this shit.
In Morrow County, healthy adults were coming down with unexplained medical conditions, including diseases that usually afflicted the elderly.

In a survey of 30 homes, at least 25 miscarriages and a half dozen people living with one kidney were reported.

It feels weird to finally say this is finished after all this time, but I'm immensely proud of all the hard work everyone put into it and I hope you all enjoy what is, as of the writing of this post, the most ambitious creative work of my life.

Corporations are relying on shame to stop folks from fighting to keep porn around. An amazing way to fight against this stuff is to simply not be ashamed of sex and sexuality; even if you think some of it is "cringe". You'll do yourself a favor by eliminating your shame about sex.
When you fight censorship, you're also fighting for things you might not exactly like and it's something you gotta get comfortable with. I promise you, the fetish game you turn your nose up at is NOT YOUR ENEMY. You must think of the bigger picture, you must not fall for the bait.
