Sheith fam, it's my birthday and I have small wish... I'm not the biggest account in our little fandom corner, but I want to use it to help. ❤️🖤

I know times are hard for many of us 😫, but several folks in our community struggle quite a bit to support themselves and/or their families.

🧵Spotted on Market Day in Aotearoa New Zealand:

A small human (4?) is strutting along next to Dad, gripping a cheese scone that's almost as big as his face, munching on it like an apple.
Bare feet.
The sun's shining.
Crumbs flying everywhere and no one cares.
He's having a GOOD day. (1)

The post I quoted... Looks like my quote was detached. (I mean, the question IS a hornet's nest)

Screenshot of the post by crowdcontroldo.bsky.social that I quoted in my original post. Text: "Who has more trauma in Voltron: the characters, or the fans?" with a robot emoji added at the end. Below the text, a video is linked to that sketch in the newest Crowd Control episode on Dropout.

Had a moment like this during the peer support group meeting last night...

Participant: "Oh, I use gen-ai to make cover pics for my music"...

Good thing I had my video and my audio muted at that point.

"I use AI but only for -"

ok

either stop or dont bother telling me because that will never change my opinion which is that you have no good excuse and you never will. no one will

Repostober Catch-up, Day 9 - Dragon Mountain

Here's another I'd like to revisit with my current skill set to see if I can do a better job conveying the scale of the dragon; I'd like him to look more mountainous, with just a bit of his back above the treeline.

#repostober

Clay sculpture of a sleeping, granite-like dragon with little bits of moss-like trees growing up his sleeping form. A river and lake have formed in the gap between his head and body. The sculpture is mounted on a fancily carved dark wood base.

The whole point of fanart, fanfics, fanworks, is to make it yourself, as a fan, out of love, passion, spite, horniness—whatever drives and inspires you, as a human, to create. GenAI has no place in fandom, and it's gross and disingenuous to include the usage of it, especially without disclosure,
