Surprisingly, nowhere in this post, does Tumblr explicitly say that they've partnered with OpenAI and Midjourney to let them scrape your content unmitigated unless you opt out.
THE OPTION SHOULD BE TOGGLED OFF BY DEFAULT AND ENABLED BY THE USER. OPT-IN, NOT OPT-OUT.
Forcing within your site's settings that everyone is giving automatic consent until they notice and opt out is fucking unethical. DeviantArt already tried this and got their asses handed to them.
MAKING PEOPLE CONSENT BY DEFAULT AND FORCING THEM TO REVOKE IT IS NOT ETHICAL DATA USAGE.
Scream it from the fucking rooftops until these dumbasses get the picture.
Hi, Tumblr. Itā€™s Tumblr. Weā€™re working on some things that we want to share with you.Ā 
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 Unionā€™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 weā€™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. Weā€™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.Ā 
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 blogsā€™ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogsā€™ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the ā€œPrevent third-party sharingā€ option.Ā 
For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc.Ā 
Please note: If youā€™ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, weā€™ve automatically enabled the ā€œPrevent third-party sharingā€ option.
If you have concerns, please read through the Help Center doc linked above and contact us via Support if you still have questions.

reasons your commission is taking a long time:
i have multiple to work on at once
i have been very busy
i have touch-and-go motivation for art
also reasons your commission is taking a long time:
i really want you to like it
in the process of drawing it i had to go and learn like three new things to be totally happy with it
oh my god you paid real money for this and if it isn't my absolute best work i am a filthy awful scammer

not to be a total geek on main, but i think it is so incredibly cute that Jake's name in Na'vi [Tsyeyk] is only one letter away from the Na'vi word for treasure [tsyeym]. Probably totally coincidental, but I just discovered that today and it has me absolutely sick. I love it. He is a treasure.

Oh yikety yike, let's not go there. Yuayt was a child abducted by colonizers and forced to adapt to their way of life, lest they face abuse and vitriol. What they did to survive is not their fault. Assuming they were the one who ratted Aha'ri out to Mercer, how would they have known Mercer was going to straight-up murder her?
Real "Lo'ak/Spider is responsible for Neteyam's death" energy. No one is responsible for these kids' deaths except the people who pulled the trigger on them, especially not fellow victims.

We have four other sarentu children we only see shortly

One girl can be see getting up from cyro though she is never seen again.

I hope that we see Yefti, Telisi, Okni and Yuayt later on or find out what happened to them. Maybe Nor found them.

Wow, this puts Alma in such a worse light. You can't convince me she was not fully complicit in the abuse and exploitation of these kids. Yes, she loved them. Yes, she had good intentions. But this is so, so fucked up beyond measure.
I have renewed motivation to write my post dissecting her character and what a fucked up individual she represents.

Per your little addendum:
Mako has long since recanted his bigoted beliefs and apologized for them ages ago. Which you could have found out incredibly easily by simply asking him or doing the bare minimum amount of research and due diligence. These are literally just not things he believes anymore.
Moreover, for the last fucking time, stop using a screenshot with my name, COMPLETELY UNCENSORED, out of context, in your attacks against my friend's character. I am so sick of this, I have asked people to stop using my name and icon and therein associate me with this mess for literal years now and no one, not one person, has ever respected my wishes to just censor me or at least crop out my message.
I get you have pure intentions. You are not in the wrong for holding negative opinions of anyone in the community. You are not in the wrong for making people aware of possible currently held bigoted beliefs. But this is absolutely bloodthirsty, bad-faith, reactionary, and irresponsible. You can and should at least speak to people and give them the chance to clarify their beliefs before you put them on blast over old statements that the user provably does not believe anymore.
Have an ounce of class.
The Nattikay We Missed [+UPDATEā€¼ļø]
Hello Avatar community, furry community, and to whom it may concern. If you are active in either of these fandoms; specifically the former, you are likely familiar with the artist and writer, Nattikay.
Tumblr media
Also going by featherkitti, Nattikay has most recently been active in the Avatar 2009 fandom with particular emphasis on the Sulliesā€™ nuclear family. You may recognize some of her art:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
As it turns out, this is not by coincidence. It saddens me to come to you with the shocking news, painstakingly and graciously compiled by a fellow informant, that Nattikay is a bigot, and over the past few days we have compiled evidence of this bigotry in one document, which
Here is a taste of the level of hate, purported by her as ā€˜truthā€™, one can expect to find upon looking through her blog (big CW for ,, pretty much every kind of -phobia and -ism you can muster if you dig, honestly):
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here is the result of our labor: 100+ pages of what didnā€™t survive past purgings of her blog. The details of those purgings, how we came to find this information, and what we think should be done are in these documents as well.
Google doc live link:
PDF view and download:
Tumblr media
UPDATE: evidently this goes deeper than just one person. Evidently nattikay moderates Kelutral and the admin/creator is bigoted too:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you are in Kelutral, I suggest you get out. Now.
Please dm @bimmyburnerblog if you have any additional details. Thank you.
Please share this to those in your circles. Download it. Spread awareness of itā€”and above all else, be aware of who youā€™re following. No matter what kind of content they put out, itā€™s what they say between the lines which gives a window into someoneā€™s character.
Finally, though I say it in the document, do not send death threats and the like to this person. Human rights violations are not civil discourse, and we do not endorse attacking her in any fashion. This may be a callout, but you can hold someone responsible for their actions (i.e. deplatform them) without being cruel or dehumanizing. Do not stoop to that level. Nobody deserves it.
with that out of the way,
Please reblog
@byunpum @sullyfortress @pandoraslxna @oel-ngati-kameie @choclodox @jakexneytiri @caffecal @jeytiri feel free to tag others; i was mainly going by the search function.

Also literally both of the Avatar movies, all of the comics, and the game: Humanity on the whole is not corrupt and evil as evidenced by our many human allies; it's the greedy megacorp exploiting our moon that needs to be repelled and we should actually be striving for peaceful coexistence between our races, not complete expulsion of just one or the other
Also Avatar in the theme parks: We humans are strictly allowed in this one area across the entire moon and only because we are working to undo the damage previously caused by the aforementioned evil megacorp. You are here as a guest so you can bear witness to the atrocities committed so you may learn to never let history repeat itself.
funni joke but come on. at least try to fairly represent what the source material says.
Literally Both Avatar Movies: ā€œHumans are greedy, evil colonizers who want to eradicate the Naā€™vi to mine Unobtanium and to claim Pandora as their own. They canā€™t be allowed to set foot on this worldā€ Avatar in the Disney parks:Ā ā€œHumans colonized Pandora but itā€™s fine now! We TOTALLY co-exist in peace now and opened the sacred land for tourists! Come look at the funny blue aliens!!ā€

Many may disagree but I'm very relieved the extended Quaritch/Neytiri showdown scene was cut because for Eywa's sake, please let Neytiri be her own character capable of making her own decisions without Jake's influence.
Him talking her down like, "no baby you don't want to do this" makes me roll my eyes. Can we just let Neytiri understand it would be wrong of her to kill Spider, a child, just to get back at Quaritch without another male character having to tell her? She already severely lacks a lot of agency in the final cut of the film, we can let her have this.

isn't it interesting how in every aged-up fic with Neteyam or Lo'ak, they're always 18 or 19? hardly ever in their 20s? always the lowest possible age to still be 'legal' and therefore skirt criticisms of the sexualization of minors (and especially the hypersexualization and exoticizing of of POC-coded characters)
maybe if we put our heads together we might figure out the reason. just maybe. maybe we could even discover a real-world cultural parallel that may contribute to this trend of hypersexualizing teenagers and making their youth central to their attractiveness. hmm

absolutely hilarious fucking post, like this is peak new-wave gooning-centric Avatar tumblr fandom. a mid-frame from the scene of a 15-year-old kid bleeding out and dying being used as a thirst post by an adult fic writer without a single drop of irony or self-awareness
