zeldawilliams 20m From Create Mode •• Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want. To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough, , just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it. Gross. And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

If you’re not careful, it’s not hard to lose yourself. 🍂

#writing #prose #art #artwork #dragon #fantasy #ink #drawing #goldink
Black, gold, and tan Ink illustration of a dragon head and neck framed in the top corner and right side by gnarled, gold branches on a textured white background. The dragon’s neck is cropped through the use of its scales turning into golden drips. It faces left in profile view, its mouth opened with a frightful expression, revealing sharp teeth lined with gold ink at the tips. A tan plume of smoke rises from a flared nostril and the lower lip, reminiscent of a dog’s, is gold. The dragon has one, wide, vacant gold eye visible. It also has a large, branching horn coming from the top of its head, a pointy ear with a wing-like shape, and three, large curving inward horns coming from its cheek, which also flow down the dragon’s spine. The dragon’s underbelly has thin scales that stretch across the neck, while the face and body has more circular to rounded scales. Both types of scales transition into the gold drips; the underbelly scales do not extend as far, and follow more of a line compared to the rounded scales. Surrounding the dragon are sketchier, shaky lines that stand on their own, or extend from the general outline. In the top left corner is a large gold branch thats roots stretch over 2/3 of the top and the rest of the branch down ¾ of the left side. Where the smoke overlaps it, the branch breaks. A few dead, golden leaves hang from the smaller branches. Stretching ¾ up the right side is another golden branch with a smaller root system. It also has a few dead leaves hanging from its branches further up. There are a few watermarks reading “LEAVES AND INKS” in an oak leaf.

🍂🌾Prehistoric Harvest🌾🍂

#velociraptor #autumn #art #illustration #autumnart #cozy #cute
Digital Illustration of a feathered velociraptor sitting on some pumpkins, a steaming mug in its claws.  It faces 3/4 left, and sits unnaturally upright, its tail curling up behind it and feet upright at the ankle joint.  Its feathers are brown, and has a slight stripe starting before its eye that runs down its side to the end of its tail.  It also has a cream underbelly, and scaled, dark grey legs and snout. Its feathers are fluffier on the end of it. The cup it holds is full of tea, and steam rises from it.  The velociraptor also has a plaid red scarf tied around its neck, one end of it falling between its legs.  The three pumpkins are large in size, and the raptor sits on the closest, center one.  All the pumpkins have green stems, with leafless vines twirling off of them.  The left pumpkin is darker, and the right one lighter.  A wooden fence sits behind the velociraptor and pumpkins, and dried grass sits in front of them, with a few long grain stalks rising above the rest of the grass. Glowing, golden orbs of various sizes float in front of and behind the raptor and pumpkins randomly. The canvas is framed in a uneven, textured, off white square, with flecks of color in it.  The bottom left corner has a rectangular logo reading “LEAVES AND INKS” each word on a separate line. A textured green circle sits behind the scene, a mostly transparent leaf pattern behind it.  while the rest of the background is a textured, darker and warm off-white.

another color variation, not sure which is my favorite
The previously described illustration, this time with the piece on a brown square, and the lines drawn in the same tan as the background. the browns used are lighter, and the same phrase, “Even A Worm Will Turn” is still in quotations under the drawing.

Even a Worm Will Turn

#prose #swordtember #fantasyart #medieval
Line art digital illustration of a brown earthworm and a longsword in a patch of dirt and leaves. the worm twists around, some of the leaves being above and below it, while the longsword is positioned above it. The illustration has a block print like quality to the way it's drawn. underneath it in an uneven, handwritten font is the phrase: “Even A Worm Will Turn” in quotations. The entire piece is on a textured cream background.

Naked authoritarian fascism. Love and support to the entire team at @jimmykimmellive.bsky.social, who *will* come out the other side of this horrendous abuse of power. Disgusted to see ABC caving to this glaringly illegal and unconstitutional threat from Brendan Carr.

Extraordinarily corrupt. I watched FCC chair Brendan Carr's full interview on Hannity. Carr basically said straight out that coverage of Trump he deems overly hostile can be decreed contrary to the "public interest," and thus grounds for yanking licenses:

Also worth pointing out imo- even if you don't READ the books, dvd's, or other resources they provide (some even have "item" library sections you can borrow from!)

It benefits them a LOT for you to literally just check them out or USE their services!!!

That's how they justify funding!!!!

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.

They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

♓️ PISCES ♓️

12/12 for my Astrology dragons series!! :D

#dragon #dragons #DragonArt #Pisces #Astrology #illustration #DigitalArt #artwork
Digital illustration of a snake-like dragon with no limbs except its wings. The dragon has shiny skin with minimal scales, a large, fish-like purple eye, fish jaws, and gills on its neck. Its body twists around the page, one wing fully outstretched while the other is half pinned to its side. The dragon’s wings are not particularly large, and are light, like its belly. The dragon also has a lot of fins throughout its body. One sets runs along its head and upper spine, horns stringing together the sinew. The main fin runs along the entire length of its spine, while the other fin is where its back legs would be. Its tail is a fish-like fin. Underneath the dragon is the text “PISCES” and “February 19 - March 20” The entire dragon floats on a cream background. Close up on the previously described dragon’s face.
