today's studies! 2 from classes and 2 x 15 min warmups. (I couldn't get rid of the weird bubble on the portrait studies no matter what glaze settings I used. :/ if anyone has any tips pls let me know)
I haven't posted much in a long time because I was ashamed of having the ups and downs in quality from a lack of art education and experience, but there's nothing wrong with needing work on my fundamentals. I want to be more consistent about posting studies AND finished work. it's hard to work through in my head and heart, but it's ok to not be perfect. I am trying to work through that mindset rather than stagnate indefinitely. looking forward to having fun and having some learning experiences.

They are already selling data to midjourney, and it's very likely your work is already being used to train their models because you have to OPT OUT of this, not opt in. Very scummy of them to roll this out unannounced.

media coverage
here's the best writeups we have so far.
matt's meltdown:
tumblr's AI deals:
that second article requires an account, but the full article is on tumblr here.
importantly, the initial data dump for OpenAI included a bunch of content that — on top of all public content between 2014 and 2023 — automattic didn't mean to share, like private posts, posts on suspended or deleted blogs, unanswered or private asks, and posts that are marked NSFW.
automattic got the IDs for these posts after providing them, and requested they be removed. we don't know for sure that they have been.
notably, the article names andrew spittle, the current head of AI. he was my boss's boss's boss's boss (you get the point) before that, and openly says that he doesn't believe in work-life balance, just in doing what the job requires him to do, if that tells you anything.

I'm trying to be kind and patient with this statement, but given that it sounds like you've already downloaded everything and our opt-out request will require an honor system that we have to "trust" that you (or whoever you've already sold our data to) will actually delete it, I'm having a hard time finding kind words.
I don't really care about the opt-out. You've already downloaded everything. I know tumblr does literally everything the worst possible way every single time, but for once in god damn history can we do the right thing first. It's too late. I'm leaving. Everyone else is leaving. You fucked everybody. How are we EVER supposed to trust you.
(I'm not speaking to you personally, tumblr staff who posted this. I'm sorry this happened. I know you're trying, but my god. Who can I yell at PLEASE. i dont want to complain to poor staff. Give me the ceos fucking email.)
Hi, Tumblr. It’s Tumblr. We’re working on some things that we want to share with you. 
AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.
Here are the important details:
We already discourage AI crawlers from gathering content from Tumblr and will continue to do so, save for those with which we partner. 
We want to represent all of you on Tumblr and ensure that protections are in place for how your content is used. We are committed to making sure our partners respect those decisions.
To opt out of sharing your public blogs’ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogs’ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the “Prevent third-party sharing” option. 
For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc. 
Please note: If you’ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, we’ve automatically enabled the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.
If you have concerns, please read through the Help Center doc linked above and contact us via Support if you still have questions.

higuruma nsfw alphabet
i hope y'all like it, i know a lot of people asked for this but . . . y'all this is my first time ever posting my nsfw writing so hype me up to post the full-length fic pls 😭
taggin those of you who requested: @hadest0wnnn @catcactusoww @lympha @
Tumblr media
[loading . . .] NSFW UNDER THE CUT!
Aftercare- Higuruma is extremely gentle afterwards. Expect bath water run and your favorite drink on the bedside table.
Body Part- He doesn't really have a favorite body part of his own. But you always compliment his abs, so he'd go with that. As far as yours, he's a tits guy for sure but he also likes your thighs.
Cum- Prefers to cum inside but also likes to cum on your tits
Dirty secret- He wants to fuck you in his office or a car, somewhere semi-public
Experience- He has a little experience before you meet him, but not much. He's a quick learner, though
Favorite position- Cowgirl all the way of course. What can I say, he's had a long day at work
Goofy- Not at all, he takes it very seriously and makes it very intimate
Hair- Short but well groomed
Intimacy- As stated above, he's very intimate in the moment and likes to take it seriously
Jack off- Yeah. Like, a lot. More so before he met you, but still- in his office, his car, at home
Kink- He wants to tie you up or blindfold you. He's really into that kind of power imbalance
Location- He prefers to be in the comfort of your home when showing any kind of affection, but as I said in Dirty Secret, he's always wanted to do the deed semi-publicly
Motivation- Honestly, being tired from work, espcially if he's had a particularly aggravating day and gets to take out all his stress
No- He wouldn't be into sharing your with anyone else. I headcanon him to be pretty possessive
Oral- Not a huge fan of blow jobs but a GOD at eating pussy i said what i said
Pace- Usually prefers to go slower and more intimate unless he's had a hard day at work like I said earlier
Quickie- YES, especially if you visit him at work during the day, hoooo
Risk- he's into semi-public, but he wouldn't do it anywhere where there'd be legitament risk of being caught
Stamina- 1-2 rounds at max
Toys- He's not really a fan of them personally, but he's willing to try them if you are
Unfair- This man is a defense lawyer soooo . . . yeah. I'm gonna say he's super into power imbalance
Volume- If you're in public he can be quiet, but when you're at home he's a moaning mess
Wild card- He
X-ray- What he lacks in character development he makes up for . . . in other ways. 6 inches, average girth
Yearning- Insane level of yearning. Like, once he meets you, you're all he thinks about
ZZZ- I headcanon he's an insomniac, so we're gonna say it *helps* him to sleep but doesn't put him to sleep right away.
