We could tolerate YouTube slop, cuz you generally can ignore it or even spend less time on YouTube. But the fact that AI is poisoning our info sources, it's not just outrageous, it's so frustrating and scary

I'm so happy that massive creators are finally talking about it seriously!
Nobody listened to artists two years ago and now the situation is borderline hopeless. Well, I still have hopes tho, it might be the end of the world but it's not the end of my life 🙂‍↕️

Also it's curious how almost all of the customers are from the USA. America has been feeding me for the entire time, VTubers commissioning me and now this. I feel like I'm a part of their economy now and somehow it just adds anxiety to my life 😭

Smh I'm selling these Mikow keychains and it's doing fine so far, but every now and then the fees and taxes are ever so slightly bigger so I actually get negative revenue. What a scam! I'm not increasing the price tho cuz people buy my stickers and leave donations as well 🙏

I only learned about Haru Urara relatively recently, but I immediately connected with her story and this song makes it even more real. Goodnight, dear horsie 💕

Mikow is my OC now, I decided. It's time to drop some lore!
She's an animal-like species, intelligence of a monky. Designed by extraterrestrials to come to Earth and sell actual cow milk, they've been stealing so many Earth cows, it became a problem. She speaks Polish randomly

If any of you come from a Slavic country - Slovakia, Montenegro, Croatia, Bulgaria, Belarus, Serbia, Slovenia, Poland, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia, Ukraine, Czechia
I would like to hear your suggestions specifically, for covers in your language (it just sounds so good)

I have an idea that might lead to a series of flops, but if it works, it'd be 🔥
I wanna animate vocaloids to their covers of European songs
I already have some covers I really like in mind, for example Gumi's cover of Käärijä or Teto singing Hey Sokoly. If you're European, maybe yk what I mean

What a sad world we're living in

Diana @azuladiana.bsky.social · Aug 9

According to the stats across my socials, ~70% of my audience are boys and a big part of them are teens. Which is ok, but the worst is happening on TikTok, people keep spamming PORN of Teto and Miku
That's what I was afraid of when I saw my audience's demographic. How do I bring more giiirls? 😭

Thank you! Many Deltarune fans are stepping in, I know that any fandom has its ugly sides, but this kind of thing.. maybe I live under a rock, but I just never seen it before
No beef with Deltarune fans in general at all! It's a wholesome game that teaches people good things 🙏

It's a war in the comments on tiktok and on twitter so many people quoted it saying "teto fans ruin everything", "joke is dead, vocaloid fans found it". At first it made me sad but then I thought what the hell
